Theres alot more 2 this story of another fake #Antifa account by @ShawnBoburg & @DDaltonBennett at the WashingtonPost "Militias flocked to Gettysburg to foil a supposed antifa flag burning, an apparent hoax created on social media" #disinfo #infosec #osint
washingtonpost.com/investigations…

One of Alan Jeffs Twitter accounts was the now suspended @LeftBehindUSA account mentioned in the above Washington Post articles. This and another of his accounts @bernieorelse were big promoters of the now debunked rape allegations by #TaraReade

Alan Jeffs, or whatever his real name is, was quite the meme maker. Here is a sampling of his work related to promoting the TaraReade alleagations against Joe Biden. The @ReadeAlexandra account even retweeted a couple of his memes. #disinfo #infosec #osint

Another now suspended accnt @DudesterThe also apparently linked in some way to Alan Jeffs promoted this tweet about #TaraReade teaming up with @nat_yasv. @LeftBehindUSA also retweeted it. This turned out 2b quite the interesting attempt by Reade 2 co-opt a non-profit run by kids

Tony Adams @tadams0620 tweeted out a bunch of the memes from the @bernieorelse account yesterday

There is alot more to this story and Alan Jeffs apppears to have been involved with among other things the #BernTheDNC and #BernieOrVest campaigns .... that fizzled once the the #pandemic hit. Stay tuned ...

Good thread about the WashPo story

At the end of June Arturo Garcia and @brooklynmarie at @erumors had first debunked this "Antifa flag burning event" being promoted by the fictioius group Left Behind USA truthorfiction.com/peaceful-flag-…

Forgot about this Tweet by Alan Jeffs @bernieorelse back on March 17th. #disinfo #infosec #osint

Back in March @ushadrons and I were looking at this account and apologize that I had forgotten this great thread on the @bernieorelse account by UShadrons. Tons of info that I am refreshing my memory on. #infosec #osint #disinfo

The fake persona Alan Jeffs setup another account @BurnTheUSFlag, now suspended, 2 continue promoting the "Antifa Flag Burning Event. Note he tried, unsuccessfully, to add the popular #Qanon hashtag #WWG1WGA instead of something that would have appealed to Leftist groups. Odd??

So this graphic by Alan Jeffs for the fake "#Antifa Flag Burning Event" appears to have first been posted to their instagram account on June 16th, then on Facebook June 17th and then a number of tweets around June 21st. #infosec #osint #disinfo

Also odd was the speed of which this fake "#Antifa Flag Burning Event" pushed by the fake persona Alan Jeffs got propagated. This appears 2b the 1st use of #LeftBehindUSA on June 21st (h/t @StBridgetAthena) & on June 23rd President Trump actually tweeted about flag burning #osint
