1/ I've found multiple fake accounts posting in closed FB group "Sarah Huckabee Sanders Supporters": imgur.com/CQ9eeMo.jpg.

Some accounts have disappeared, but I made backups. They have influences from Pakistan, Russia, Lebanon, India, etc. #FacebookPropaganda @selectedwisdom
2/ Before we get started, remember that this is just ONE closed FB group. One small example of a gigantic problem.

Also this is not about all Facebook groups that support the press secretary. The group talked about here is #751453925058848. Just one group. #FacebookPropaganda
3/ Here are three examples of fake accounts and their postings that have disappeared recently.





The group is infested with & run by fake accounts. Read the next tweets for examples. #FacebookPropaganda
4/ An admin, "Kristina Cruz", uses a profile photo of a young blonde girl. "She" has 10 friends.

Profile & cover pics from 7 Nov 2015. On same day, "she" shared 2 @chicagotribune stories to perhaps make it appear "she" is from Chicago. imgur.com/SEGo7kh.jpg #FacebookPropaganda
5/ One of the 10 FB friends of admin "Kristina Cruz" was "Doulos Wang": archive.is/TZddt. "He" is "Malaysian". Profile pic is strangely from photographer Dylan Furst: archive.is/ID2BN. His only post showed stock photos: archive.is/kNi9t. #FacebookPropaganda
6/ So many suspect accounts post to around 20,000 mostly genuine supporters of Sarah Huckabee Sanders. As of August 2018, the group has 20,768 members.

To join a closed Facebook group, some allow you to request to be let in. That's the way this one works. #FacebookPropaganda
7/ "Linda Brown Warren" is an example of one of so many fake accounts: archive.is/GhMIY.

First off, "she" appears to be an attractive woman who uploaded multiple photographs from different places, all on 11 July 2018. #FacebookPropaganda
8/ Second, "she" happens to be from "California City, California", which is the city you would pick if you live in a foreign country and you want to create a fake account for someone from California, but you don't know much about California's cities. #FacebookPropaganda
9/ Third, this "Linda Brown Warren" woman sure does like Indian culture, according to her About page. Not just one or two movies or musicians. She likes EVERYTHING in India. Everything. archive.is/pgH0q imgur.com/vRUuuog.jpg #FacebookPropaganda
10/ Two of "Linda Brown Warren" postings.

One: imgur.com/ROKgyKB.png
Two: imgur.com/4LLIkyU.png

Both stories appear to be false.

My study of the commenters leads me to believe the VAST MAJORITY of the commenters are genuine Americans who believe the #FacebookPropaganda.
11/ Other than "Kristina", there are 3 more admins:

- "Lillian Nguyen" has 2 friends archive.is/SKbU6
- "Svetlana Janevska" archive.is/eWOd1
- "Ashley Lavrijssen" archive.is/tx4nJ

"Diane Diaz Cull" is a moderator archive.is/usfAN #FacebookPropaganda
12/ There is not much information on "Svetlana Janevska".

As for "Ashley Lavrijssen", two people both named Mohammed happen to be writing comments on her cover photo: archive.is/1dXOh. I noticed that one of them typed in Arabic. #FacebookPropaganda
13/ And I get the feeling "Diana" might, just might, be a real Trump supporter who volunteered to moderate, and she's being used by the person or people behind the fake accounts who administer the group. Maybe. Might be real. Might be fake. I can't tell. #FacebookPropaganda
14/ So this is just one closed FB group with about 20,000 people. One of countless political FB groups. How many fake accounts are influencing Americans with #FacebookPropaganda? How many people worldwide are being influenced by propaganda on social media for their own countries?
15/ America is under attack. People check FB all day long. They like political pages that agree with them. They hide ones that don't. All for validation. Even if its a false story pushed by a fake account from another country. This is a new kind of propaganda. #FacebookPropaganda
16/ Propaganda is not new. But this is. This is not the same kind of propaganda that's been going around for decades, centuries, longer... #FacebookPropaganda
17/ Three long years ago in June 2015, I began attempting to issue an early, frantic, scripted, desperate, researched, and dire warning about #FacebookPropaganda and its threat to our democracy: .

This was Mark Zuckerberg in April 2018:
