The full @maddow interview with Dexter Filkins, who authored the great @NewYorker story on the Alfa bank/Spectrum/Trump Tower server the other day.

ICYMI. This is a must watch.

I can't get over this part.

"If you had those records you'd be able to determine who shut down the Trump domain."

"Literally the person."

Wow.
This is who lobbies on behalf of Alfa Bank. BGR group.

New link to the full interview since the Youtube one was taken down.

A few thought on the Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dance video, coming from a skeptic of hers.

Some months back I ran into this video when looking into her background a bit. I didn't post it for a few reasons.

1. It's just a silly video.
2. I knew it would only make her look good.
When I saw it, the video had about 50k views in all the time it was up. If I would've posted it, hardly anyone would've noticed.

Now the genius Qanon fucktard who posted it AnonymousQ1776 who has since deleted his entire account, did a bang up job making a tweet so terrible it amplified it for full effect.

“...Putin spent a year in spy school, where he became a great proponent of the use of ‘active measures’...by disseminating conflicting accounts of events to create the impression there are no reliable facts.” - House of Trump, House of Putin by @craigunger. HOW DO WE COMBAT THIS?
We must be rigorous about sourcing everything we say. And demanding that from others. But there are many things about which the public can’t have first hand knowledge, which means we have to take someone’s word. And this is where the potential for exploitation thrives. 1/
This means demanding as much transparency as possible. Because uncertainty thrives in the dark. 2/

National Prayer Breakfast (attended by Russian spy Maria Butina & Alexander Torshin) & perhaps Cambridge Analytica are tied to a well connected businessman, John Yenason, in Pennsylvania, where Alfa Bank repeatedly pinged a Trump server in the run up to the 2016 election. 1/
"[D]uring an interview with The Citizens’ Voice in March, Yenason acknowledged he tried to arrange a meeting between the Russians and Trump’s campaign — although he maintained it was not at the behest of the Russians." 2/ citizensvoice.com/news/russian-i…
3/ "Yenason, a former Harveys Lake councilman who describes himself as a devout Christian, said he first met Butina and Torshin after he was invited to attend a prayer breakfast in Russia in 2016."

ICYMI Trump's far-right media disinformation swamp's latest attack on the Russia probe involves an actual hoax: Republican propagandists seem to be offering women money to make false claims they were sexually assaulted by Mueller. nbcnews.com/politics/justi…
BTWs Last week "Surefire Intelligence" anti-genius Jacob Wohl was inventing conspiracy theories claiming Robert Mueller had Russian investments and ties to George Soros. I guess after an anti-Semite slaughtered elderly Jewish worshippers, Wohl pivoted to surefire sexual assault.
Nice! Online sleuth @Bellingcat’s @AricToler and his open-source investigation of Jacob Wohl’s fake Surefire Intelligence firm that set up a lame scheme to smear Mueller made the Rachel @Maddow show tonight. Follow them all. They do great work! #maddow

Was there a connection between Russia's Alfa Bank and Trump's Campaign?
The Trump domain was shut down after @nytimes contacted Alfa Bank. “That shows a human interaction...Alfa Bank alerted Trump Org, which shut it down.”
cc @ljean by @NewYorker #Maddow bit.ly/2zUExlf
DNS traffic between Russia's Alfa Bank and Trump Tower coincided with Manafort’s time as campaign chair and continued after he left. "It could have been a messaging system" using Webmail to facilitate secret communications via 'foldering,' a method favored by Manafort.
#Maddow
Prominent computer expert @ljean says the Alfa Bank-Trump Tower communication may have been used to coordinate the movement of data. Cambridge Analytica stole millions Facebook records, which could have been transferred to the Russian govt to guide US voter targeting.
