Senate Report on Russian Interference Was Written By Disinformation Warriors Behind Alabama ‘False Flag Operation’ - My article at @GrayzoneProject grayzoneproject.com/2018/12/25/sen…
Senate Intelligence report authors at @NewKnowledgeAI have devised a curious bot identification method that "sometimes mistakes real people who post anti-imperialist arguments about U.S. foreign policy for Kremlin trolls." grayzoneproject.com/2018/12/25/sen…
According to @NewKnowledgeAI CEO @jonathonmorgan, you can tell you've fallen victim to Russian bots if the information you read "makes you too angry" grayzoneproject.com/2018/12/25/sen…
If you, like Most Americans, want the war in Afghanistan to end or support withdrawing troops from Syria, U.S. gov't-contracted cyber-meddling firm @NewKnowledgeAI says you're a Russian bot.
A week after being exposed, Silicon Valley billionaire Reid Hoffman denies he knew his money was funding the 'false flag' disinfo operation against Alabama voters and that's he's sorry. But Hoffman won't say who else was involved in the plot. washingtonpost.com/technology/201… 
Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall is "exploring" whether the @NewKnowledgeAI disinformation operation violated state campaign laws and is "worried that the operation could have affected the closely fought Senate race." washingtonpost.com/technology/201…
Remember, as @aaronjmate points out, mainstream pundits and politicians compared *alleged* Russian meddling to 9/11, Pearl Harbor, and Kristallnacht. I haven't seen any of them condemn this *proven* Democratic party-linked disinformation operation. thenation.com/article/elite-…
Here's @reidhoffman's full apology and disavowal of the @NewKnowledgeAI "false flag operation". medium.com/@reidhoffman/t… doesn't say anything about disciplining/firing his employee Sara K. Hudson who participated in the operation. nytimes.com/2018/12/19/us/…
This gets even weirder: NYT reporter @ScottShaneNYT, who broke the Alabama disinfo op story, learned of it in early September when he spoke at an off-the-record event organized by one of the firms that perpetrated the deception buzzfeednews.com/article/craigs…
A lightly-redacted copy of the internal @NewKnowledgeAI report has been leaked and claims at least partial credit for Doug Jones' victory. Details follow👇

Career liar/@NewKnowledge CEO @jonathonmorgan says the operation had no impact and never intended to but according to the report's executive summary, his team "ran a digital messaging operation to influence the outcome of the AL senate race".
Using a strategy to "radicalize Democrats, suppress persuadable Republicans and faction moderate Republicans", the @NewKnowledgeAI operation sought to "move 50,000 votes". That's more than double the 22,819 votes Doug Jones won by. How many were because of this operation?
.@NewKnowledgeAI boasts that "not a single story about our activities appeared in any press outlet" and says "we must position ourselves to intercept future attempts to control the narrative by the adversary"
The operation took place over a 5-month period using a carefully crafted strategy including deploying non-attributable memes "targeting white, African-American and women voters". This page lays it out in detail:
Another incriminating claim here: "Our sustained targeting of these likely voters had enormous effect on R [Republican] turnout in these countries. The R [Republican] depression in these countries was measurably higher compared to the rest of the State".
Among the media outlets and pundits - what Russiagate proponents often call "useful idiots" - that @NewKnowledgeAI says boosted (unwittingly or wittingly?) the disinformation campaign are @sarahkendzior, @StevenTDennis and @JoeTacopino.

Disinformation warrior @jonathonmorgan attempts to control damage by lying. He now claims the “false flag operation” never took place and the botnet he promoted as Russian-linked (based on phony Hamilton68 Russian troll tracker he developed) wasn’t Russian newknowledge.com/blog/about-ala…
