For his talk closing #StratComDC, @GenMhayden says he’ll approach his talk as an intelligence officer: “The Russians did it…to mess with our heads ✅ …to Punish Hillary Clinton because [Putin] hates her ✅ …to invalidate & delegitimize the inevitable President Clinton ✅…” 2/
“Jim Clapper says something I do not say… Jim says in his book ‘They flipped the vote’,” says @GenMhayden.
“I do not say that. I firmly believe they affected the vote but the effect itself is not just unknown but unknowable.”

⚡️“Right now there are 1000s and 1000s of fingers hard at work to penetrate your psyche”—Lyudmila Savchuk, activist who infiltrated Russia’s notorious Internet Research Agency propaganda troll farm named in Mueller indictment, speaking at #StratComDC. #disinformation @ACEurasia 
That was amazing. Lyudmila Savchuk told of her breakdown after infiltrating Russia’s engine of world wide political warfare—Internet Research Agency troll factory in St Petersburg. Most shocking to her: They—fake persona disinformation operations—are everywhere.

This is the woman that had the @StateDept and others listening closely years ago when she gave us the first reports of the Internet Research Agency. Meet @Savchuk_L
She literally walked right in to the troll farm. #stratcomDC
Why be a troll? You can get paid to live your life being someone else instead of facing your reality. #StratComDC @Savchuk_L
