#Russia media report claims @WhiteHouse, since 1963, has used a Russian-made "scrambler" for the hotline to keep in touch with Moscow. sputniknews.com/science/201808…
I've queried @PressSec for comment but guess the current @WhiteHouse can blame this on President Kennedy, if true.

The @POTUS-Xi dinner here was a “highly successful meeting," says @PressSec in statement and the Chinese president, "in a wonderful humanitarian gesture, has agreed to designate Fentanyl as a Controlled Substance."
And @POTUS agreed that on Jan. 1, he'll "leave tariffs on $200 billion worth of product at the 10% rate, and not raise it to 25% at this time," adds @PressSec.
"China will agree to purchase a not yet agreed upon, but very substantial, amount of agricultural, energy, industrial, and other product from the United States to reduce the trade imbalance between our two countries," according to @PressSec.

NEW REPORT: #Russia’s massive 2016 #disinformation warfare operation used every major social media platform to deliver words, images & videos targeted to voter interests to help elect Trump—AND worked even harder after the election to support him in office washingtonpost.com/technology/201…
NEW Report: Russia's Internet Research Agency—charged w/ criminal offenses in the 2016 campaign—"sliced Americans into key interest groups for targeted messaging. These efforts shifted over time, peaking at key political moments, such as presidential debates or party conventions"
Computational Propaganda Report on Russia's 2016 election disruption operation: ALL the messaging clearly sought to benefit Republicans & specifically Trump. Targeted Right-wing voters to encourage them to back Trump. Distracted, confused & discouraged others from voting at all.

THREAD on #Russia/n Orthodox Church (ROC) breaking off “eucharistic communion" w/ #Constantinople Patriarchate.
1.CAVEAT: I don’t claim to be an expert in church relations but being Orthodox Christian & working on #Russia-related politics/policies I feel entitled to share few of my own observations esp in the face of mounting ignorance or propaganda from some of the usual "Russia watchers"
2. Within next days you will hear 3 dominating narratives on what came to be called "the new schism":
A.Patriarch Kirill is KGB (somewhat true).
B. ROC is a tool of #Kremlin (true).
C. Conflict emerged as aftermath of “#Russia trying to make #Ukraine submissive” (yes & no)

#Russia's state media reports that the President's residence at the White House has a direct hotline to Moscow, utilizing exclusively Russian-made encryption equipment. The U.S.-Russia hotline was established in 1963, in the wake of the October 1962 Cuban missile crisis. ©️

1. Clinton friendship with Moscow runs deep. Very deep. We have a near half-century dossier connecting them.

The mainstream media hasn't called them out on this systematic pattern. The emperor has no clothes on.

#Russia #RussiaCollusion #Clintons #HillaryClinton
2. In 1971 Hillary went to work for Treuhaft, Walk, and Burnstein lawfirm.

(Some accounts place their first association as early as 1967)

3. Treuhaft was such a problem he had been hauled before the House Un-American Activities Committee. He was labeled as one of America's most "dangerously subversive" lawyers.

A quick thread outlining the main takeaways of my @CarnegieEndow report on "Preventing Escalation in the Baltics. A NATO Playbook" carnegieendowment.org/2018/03/28/pre… @carnegienpp @james_acton32
1/n I start from the premise that in order to preserve @NATO unity min response to #Russia, the alliance should focus on three topical areas, i.e., deterrence and assurance, resilience, and risk reduction. My recommendations are as follows:
2/n Ensuring trip wire is pulled in a conflict, US should deploy a US Army battalion, split equally among the 3 EFP deployments in the Baltics; task: continuously patrolling/monitoring borders with Russia. NATO should avoid additional large-scale force deployments to the Baltics.
