Hamilton 2.0 now tracks Chinese state-backed messaging! We’ve expanded our dashboard to track 150+ Chinese diplomatic & media Twitter accounts, 5 state-sponsored news websites, CGTN America & CCTV+’s YouTube, & official Chinese Mission to the UN statements.securingdemocracy.gmfus.org/the-alliance-f…
The Hamilton expansion allows us to track, in near-real time, Chinese state-backed media and govt interlocutors’ messaging on topics ranging from #coronavirus and the trade war to Hong Kong protests and Xinjiang. Check out the dashboard: securingdemocracy.gmfus.org/hamilton-dashb…
“The #coronavirus pandemic has spurred a global information contest in which China has employed increasingly aggressive tactics and techniques in a battle for narrative supremacy,” Media & Disinfo Fellow Bret Schafer said. securingdemocracy.gmfus.org/coronavirus-an…
Join us tomorrow for an interactive discussion on the narratives and long-term trends in Chinese govt information manipulation tactics, based on Hamilton 2.0 data. Register here: gmfus.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
Worth noting: The Hamilton 2.0 dashboard is free for public use and will continue to collect data on Russian government and government-funded media outputs, too. securingdemocracy.gmfus.org/hamilton-dashb…

If the Kremlin’s 2020 plan is to divide Democrats, this past week has provided ample kindling for the fire – starting with the Warren/Sanders spat and including Secretary Clinton’s comments yesterday. ASD fellow Bret Schafer analyzes Russia’s coverage of the controversies.
Yesterday, the top story on RT.com was the Clinton/Sanders feud fueled by Clinton’s “nobody likes him” quote that surfaced in a Hollywood Reporter interview. For those keeping score at home, there was also a Senate trial to impeach a sitting president yesterday.
This follows a pattern. After last week’s Democratic debate, Russian state-funded media & affiliated accounts hammered CNN, the Warren campaign, and the DNC for conspiring against Sanders – a theme that was central to Russia’s efforts to divide progressive & centrist Dems in 2016

This week, on a bipartisan basis, the US House of Representatives passed the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2020, which will drive much of defense policy for the coming year. congress.gov/bill/116th-con…
With it, Congress has taken steps to secure US democracy against foreign interference, particularly in the areas of improving election security, addressing concerns about China, and defending against disinformation.
These are three areas that @jessbrandt has said are ripe for bipartisan action.

US withdrawal from Syria has given Russia the opportunity to question US reliability, expose rifts within NATO, & promote an image of Russia as the leading power in the Middle East. Bret Schafer analyzed Hamilton 2.0 data to see how official Russian actors framed the conversation
Between Oct 6 and Nov 11, Russian diplomatic and media Twitter accounts mentioned Syria over 4,800 times. Monitored accounts used #Syria 997 times, which is 300 percent more than the month before. Only #Russia was used more.
Video segment mentions also increased. Hamilton captured 67 video segments associated with Syria during this time period, compared to only four segments on the country between Sept 1 and Oct 5. This signals a large uptick in broadcast coverage over the past month.
