Yesterday, Marsha Blackburn slandered Lt Col Vindman. The reference was lost on most. It comes from far-right conspiracy sites saying Vindman trashed America to Russian military officers.

Many accts replied to people defending Vindman w/ link to a BS blog which is now deleted /1
There are many more iterations, old and new.

The point is — Marsha B speaking to conspiracy world and we the people mad about it don’t even really get the reference she is leveraging because we aren’t in this space. It has been thoroughly cultivated in far right. /2
The point?

Even grown ups doing things like writing the laws that govern our nation are so thoroughly steeped in conspiracy & so enjoying their huffing of Kool-Aid that we are deeply deeply screwed as long as the conspiracy king is in the WH and twitter won’t deplatform him /3
