This is absolutely shocking and needs to be shared far and wide. @FCDOGovUK must secure Steve's release from Mexico immediately.
It can only be considered terrifyingly serendipitous that this follows mere days after @jmcevoy_2 exposed how Foreign Office info warfare unit IRD spied on and attempted to discredit dissident journalists and publications in the 1970s - including @M_Star_Online.
John's writing gains an eerily prophetic character in light of what's now happened: "there is little reason to believe that such covert practices have ended."
Read. Learn. Be very, very angry. Write to your MP. Steve Sweeney must be freed NOW.
thecanary.co/investigations…
Have reached out to a few people in the US/LatAm to see if they know anyone locally who could visit Steve in the jail, if that's even permitted. Any of you who have comrades/family/connections there please let me know. Thanks.

🧵THREAD🧵: First Steele memo to mention Russia hack of DNC July 19th 2016, three days before @wikileaks posted thousands of DNC emails on eve of Convention meeting. Intel based on info allegedly provided by Source E - @SergeiMillian. States WL used for "plausible deniability". ImageImageImage
Now, we know from #DanchenkoIndictment that he and @SergeiMillian never actually spoke, he was lying. Now, this could be eg of Steele dossier being based on news... ImageImageImageImage
As @aaronjmate has so incisively pointed out. Meme of Russian hacking already well-seeded by this point. WaPo and NYT reports in mid-June had warned of Russian hacking (although content rather different to what was released) and @wikileaks published many DNC emails already ImageImageImageImage
