1. I was about the only person reporting on the Russian attack in 2016. I announced it on July 24, 2016. I didn't get it from the MSM I got it from being in the troll attacks on @Twitter that I recognized after two years of dealing with them over Russia's Ukraine invasion.
2. The data they hacked will be used on @Facebook @instagram, @YouTube and to a small degree on @Twitter. If you're a high frequency #DemocraticParty voter and show any doubts on @JoeBiden on social media, expect the Russians to identify you and hammer your accounts with what
3. ever you have said publicly that was critical of @JoeBiden. The best thing you can do is to get off of @Facebook @instagram and to a lesser degree @YouTube. I think @Twitter is safer, because folks are working as a lifeguards in the deep end.
4. If I wanted to find the Russian troll and sock puppet accounts, I'd get about a 100 high frequency Democrats in each of MI, WI, PA & FL and have them go on @Facebook to post doubts about Biden. The sit on the wire and trace them. And spike their servers. @CYBERCOM_DIRNSA

1. Not clear if it's just election window dressing for Trump to look tough on Al-Qaeda and ISIS after surrendering parts of Syria to them and their Turkish enablers but there are signs of something changing in the relationship. First the @StateDept issued a terrorist threat
2. warning for Americans in Istanbul. This came after the Turkish forces withdrew from an area of western Syria held by the Assad regime. In what appears to have been either a re-deployment of that force or possibly another force the Assad regime has engaged in an artillery
3. barrage that is preventing the Turkish Army from establishing a base in rebel held Kansafra in southern Idlib that is north of the area from which the Turkish forces withdrew. In that attack, Russian forces appear to be directing fire in an apparent attempt to avoid hitting

1.A reminder what really happened in 2016. 11 days out here's a comparison of poll averages. @HillaryClinton was 3.9% ahead. @JoeBiden is 7.9%. With Hillary in a much closer position, James Comey, under pressure from the @HouseGOP & @SenateGOP broke policy and IMO violated 6(e). Image
2. That opened the door to a massive #GRU direct action attack, mostly on @Facebook, that targeted @TheDemocrats who were wavering in their support and interest and who were identified by Cambridge Analytics by Facebook violating its own policies in a few key precincts.
3. That swung WI, MI and PA to Trump. It was brilliant but it was an act of war facilitated by Americans and an FBI head who violated the rules and the faith. Mueller, under the gun, was not able or willing to identify the members of Congress.

1. Reposted from 12/17 #Russianbots: Here's how I think voter data was used. Background: July 2016, I had reason to investigate what I thought was a theft of Hawaii Democratic Party data. It turns out it wasn't but I learned from the data firm that Democrats use the database
2. contained 4 fields. The fields are 1. Name; 2. District; 3. ID Document; and 4. Voter frequency. Name, District and frequency were likely used to target the key precincts in the three key swing states. Knowing that a person is going to vote and is in the Democrats database
3. is statistical gold. But work would have to be done to reach these targeted voters. That's where data from social media and brokers like Google would provide a reference database to merge with the voter data. In the end they would have email, Facebook and Twitter accounts of

1.@POTUS @RealDonaldTrump's #Turkey business deals run our foreign policy in #Syria and #Iraq and the result is we are looking the other way as #ISIS & Al-#Qaeda retake northern Syria and #Iran & @Russian take the rest. Make the @GOP regret that. @robertcobrien @WHNSC @FBIWFO
2. If you support the Christians and Kurds in Syria, don't vote for @Trump's @Senate enablers. @SenatorLoeffler @SenMcSallyAZ @SenatorCollins @SenCoryGardner @joniernst @SenDanSullivan @SenThomTillis @TeamCornyn @SenateMajLdr @LindseyGrahamSC @SteveDaines @SenDavidPerdue

1. This is the first World Series where I want both teams to win. @RaysBaseball because as a RedSox fan I've watched that franchise play quality baseball on a shoestring so long that I would love to see them win. @Dodgers because in 2018, I got to attend game five @Redsox
2. win the third World Series in my life while in LA with my 28 year old son who I took to Fenway when he was 4. I was so impressed by the fans in LA, and their love of the game, that the win was tiny bit bittersweet. I think I'm getting old.
3. But my son was so thrilled and that made it a perfect moment. I was impressed how many little kids were at that game. Working folks paying big money. So I said a little prayer that the Dodgers and their wonderful fans would get the thrill of a World Series win soon.
