💥#SethRich conspiracy theory was a Russian #disinformation operation too: Russian spy agency SVR secretly planted fake intel report claiming Clinton ppl killed the DNC staffer. #Russia-run RT and Right-Wing media spread the #propaganda hoax. news.yahoo.com/exclusive-the-… h/t @RVAwonk

@RVAwonk New #SethRich report shows we've only scratched the surface of Russian disinformation warfare against the US. As we learn the full scale of Russia's attack, we see too the depths of compromised Americans—willing tools like @FoxNews propagandist Hannity—doing Russia's dirty work⤵️

Pretty neat trick. Russia seeds disinformation which @FoxNews then spreads to deflect Russian culpability. “It wasn’t Russia. It was #SethRich—an inside job,” cried GOP propagandists. Just as Mueller was named to investigate the 2016 attack & Trump’s role.
