Now this bit with Gates and PsyGroup is really interesting nytimes.com/2018/10/08/us/…
RFP ➡️ create fake online identities ➡️ to use social media manipulation and gather intel
👆One proposal ➡️ use bogus personas to target delegates to the 2016 Republican National Convention
👆👇 “4. Conduct intensive influence activities and campaigns with a focus on the undecided delegates and their influences...”
👆👇 3rd proposal ➡️ “sketched out a monthslong plan to help Mr Trump by using social media to help expose or amplify division among rival campaigns and factions”
🤔 Like this with Citizens for Trump? ➡️ Stone. Etc.
“The scope of the social media campaigns, essentially a broad effort to sow disinformation among delegates and general election voters, was more extensive than work typically done by campaign operatives to spread the candidate’s message on digital platforms.”
Birnbaum ➡️ met with Gates ➡️ DAYS after he and Manafort joined Trump campaign ➡️ Gates expressed interest using social media & manipulation ➡️ as a campaign tool ➡️ immediate focus on targeting delegates
With Birnbaum links to Netanyahu 🤔 “reverse packaging” 🤷‍♀️
PsyGroup ➡️ hired Covington & Burling ➡️ Stuart Eizenstat
👆Quick aside ➡️ notables at Covington & Burling ➡️ Bolton. Chertoff. Kyl. Lighthizer.
And oh btw ➡️ Eizenstat ➡️ lobbyist for Erik Prince’s Xe/Blackwater/Academi
Back to Birnbaum ➡️ Finkelstein
Birnbaum ➡️ policy advisor to Carson campaign
Birnbaum ➡️ Sager
From 👆 Sager thread ➡️ FBC ➡️ Razak
And Sager/FBC was newsy with Manafort trials.
Back to the delegates proposal ➡️ code names and password-protected docs ➡️ create messages to influence delegates based on personalities ➡️ using “various methods” to assess the meanings of delegates 🤔
Proposal ➡️ use “authentic looking” fake online identities ➡️ to bombard up to 2,500 targets with specially tailored messages
The messages would describe Mr Cruz’s ‘ulterior motives or hidden plans’ 🤔 see “reverse packaging” earlier in thread.
About 👆those telephone calls and delegates ➡️ remember the raid at SGR? 🤔
👆 SGR ➡️ Whitfield ➡️ Manafort/Stone
“tailored third-party messaging” ➡️ aimed at targeted segments ➡️ minority, suburban female & undecided voters in battleground states ➡️ rifts and rivalries eh?
From 👆 Wikileaks ➡️ effect of release was to undermine and disrupt the DNC
Treason Tower meetings galore ➡️ recalling one from Aug 3, 2016 ➡️ Jr. Nader. Prince. ➡️ updated proposal 🤔
🤦‍♀️ Zamel attorney ➡️ Mukasey
And again, Tel Aviv from NYT piece brings my brain back to this.
Oh yeah. Gonna drop this bit right here on that “central role”
Gonna drop this here too. Social media manipulation based on personalities
