Retweet network for tweets linking to New Republic's Mariia Butina pro-Butina article. It appears to have attracted quite the cast of characters - among those supporting the stance pushed in the article are @JackPosobiec, @mtracey, and @Ian56789.
What other media sources do the accounts tweeting New Republic's Butina article link? Mostly RT, Sputnik, ZeroHedge, and jeremyrhammond(dot)com. We haven't seen the latter before, but the first impression is an anti-vax conspiracy theory in large friendly letters.
