Good to see the Senate #BlueAnon committee getting back to the business of propagandizing the American public about phony Russia meddling threats and padding the budget of the “intelligence community” that failed to detect any problems ahead of January 6.
The Senate doesn’t want to investigate the well-established links between US/EU white nationalists and the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion - likely because the US armed Azov to turn up the heat on Russia.
Anyway, it looks like the Senate Intel Committee is laying the groundwork for labeling Russia a state sponsor of terror. Meanwhile, there are calls to delist HTS, the Syria based AQ affiliate, and the State Dept recently delisted ETIM, a Xinjiang & Syria-based AQ affiliate.

The author of multiple malicious, false and retracted screeds about me, @areidross, emailed me about his plan to smear me again in the Daily Beast.
I wrote DB editor, @NoahShachtman, about ARR's record of disgrace & his current Koch-funded work w/ police spies & right-wingers.
Here's @areidross's email pitch to @TheGrayzoneNews, which I edit. He wrote as "Lilac" from Earth First, which was shady. Months after I rejected his incoherent proposal, he began accusing me of controlling a secret commie-fascist alliance with Kremlin space lasers.
I wonder if ARR's Earth First buddies find it odd that he now works with the Koch-funded "Network Contagion Research Institute," collaborating with a NYPD intelligence veteran, a Tea Party Republican, and DHS officials who call Antifa domestic terrorists. networkcontagion.us/about/

Carlos Vecchio, who currently serves as Juan Guaido's coup ambassador in Washington DC, where he lobbies for regime change and presides over the pilfering of Venezuela's state assets. thegrayzone.com/2019/06/18/exx…
The destabilizing sanctions tactic advised by Navalny's top advisor was already deployed by the CIA in Venezuela in a failed bid to create divisions in President Nicolas Maduro's inner circle. Similarities between Navalny and Guaido grow by the day. mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-…
Tony Blinken on the assassination of Maj. Gen. Soleimani: "Taking him out was the right thing to do."
Then he goes on to say in the weaseliest fashion why it wasn't.
Mitt Romney conjures a scenario in which China takes over the US and imposes its system. Does this mean we will be getting a national poverty eradication program?
Jeanne Shaheen and Tony Blinken now demanding "accountability" for Cuba's supposed sonic attacks on US diplomats, which were actually the result of cricket mating calls. news.berkeley.edu/2019/01/10/rec…
Going through my footage from the Capitol riot and remembering how omnipresent anti-China and anti-communist rhetoric was.
Here a mob badgers cops arriving on the scene:
“Stop defending the CCP!”
“Y’all are working for Chinese agents. You’re working for a foreign power.”
“You wait and see how good you do under communist China. They’ll hold your families hostage.”
This was far from the only time I heard hysteria of a Chinese takeover openly entertained that day.
Among a mob berating a Capitol Hill local for arguing the election wasn’t stolen was this rage-aholic who brought up his own experience “escaping” communism out of the blue
I studied video shot by Sullivan (Jayden X) in the Capitol and compiled some moments of him zealously celebrating the invasion & instigating the mob all the way up to Ashli Babbit's shooting. Watch with audio on.
No committed BLM activist would say or do this – and he isn't one
As DC BLM journalist @blackhousenew explained to me, Sullivan has been banished by activist communities across the country.
He's considered a dangerous provocateur & is the subject of deep suspicion.
Cortney Craft, a Metro PD officer, took to Facebook to claim "first hand knowledge" of "off duty police officers from around the country" using their police badges to gain access to the US Capitol as part of the right-wing mob. Craft deleted the post soon after publishing.
I did not see off duty cops flashing badges to gain access to the Capitol, but I saw plenty of guys in police tactical gear (which can be purchased by private citizens) around. And I witnessed Capitol PD shaking hands and fraternizing with MAGA types, as they've done in the past.
Didn’t hit record in time but this MAGA guy had just been engaged in an extended session of friendly banter and hand shakes with this Capitol PD officer
