“A HuffPost investigation in 2017 revealed that @TEN_GOP, a pro-Trump Twitter account run by the Kremlin’s IRA, retweeted Posobiec more than any account in a large data set of significant conservative accounts.” 5/ #PosobiecRussia huffpost.com/entry/the-vast…
“Posobiec was the first real amplifier of forged documents about Macron, according to an investigation by the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic Research Lab. He then promoted a cache of Russia-hacked Macron campaign emails.” 6/ #PosobiecRussia
9/ “Posobiec has…promoted ‘Foundations of Geopolitics,’ a book by the Russian neofascist Aleksandr Dugin that explains how to undermine American democracy by inflaming racial tension & chaos thru political sabotage & disinformation.” #PosobiecRussia huffpost.com/entry/the-vast…
11/ “Manafort shared polling data on 2016 election with elusive Russian [Konstantin Kilimnik] – Mueller” 1/8/19 theguardian.com/us-news/2019/j…
13/ “The #MacronLeaks hashtag, from the moment Posobiec tweeted it, was the primary social media propellant of the hacked Macron data, according to cyber-intelligence analysts at the Atlantic Council's Digital Forensics Research Lab.” nationalobserver.com/2017/05/09/opi…
14/ “They also concluded that bots played a significant role from the outset. Some 40 minutes later, Wikileaks tweeted the link with Posobiec's hashtag, and the Internet erupted.”
15/ “The appearance of bot activity, observed independently by both the DFRL and Belgian academic Nicolas Vanderbiest, from the first minutes after Posobiec's tweet, strongly suggests a planned and coordinated campaign.”
16/ “Others online also spotted anomalous activity patterns in two Macron hashtags used by Posobiec. No evidence directly connects Posobiec to observed bot activity, and he denies using them.” Image
17/ Posobiec also “has a Russian social media profile page, thanks he says, to his fiancée [who he married in 2017], Tanya Tay, who hails from Belarus, in the former USSR.” #PosobiecRussia Image
18/ “Both Posobiec and Cernovich have history with online viral fake news campaigns... All three of their major campaigns — #Pizzagate, #SyriaHoax, and #MacronLeaks — involved Russian-hacked data or a Russian-led campaign.” #PosobiecRussia
20/ “Posobiec … is a lieutenant junior grade in the U.S. Navy Reserves, assigned to Joint Reserve Intelligence Support Element Dekalb.” nbcnews.com/news/us-news/r…

23/ “Trump’s First Reaction to Charlottesville Was to Retweet [Jack Posobiec, a far right associate of Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Mike Flynn, & David Horowitz]” - July 2017 #PosobiecTrump observer.com/2017/08/donald…

25/ “Donald Trump Jr. Pictured at 'We Build the Wall' Event With Neo-Nazi Collaborator Jack Posobiec” 8/24/20 #PosobiecDonJunior splcenter.org/hatewatch/2020…
27/ Posobiec was conveniently situated in PA during the 2016 Democratic National Convention protest, which was triggered by Wikileaks’ publication of hacked DNC emails. After one Wikileaks DNC email dump, Bannon’s publicist (Alexandra Preate) texted Stone “well done.”
33/ Oh yeah. Posobiec also doxxed one of Roy Moore’s accusers. See post 32.
34/ Posobiec has more than once tweeted “1488” (which means Heil Hitler) & used the echo symbol (triple parentheses, which are used to target Jews w/ hate). By @MichaelEHayden splcenter.org/hatewatch/2020…
36/ BTW, Posobiec is coming for our kids. In May, he left OANN and joined Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA, which specifically targets kids and young adults (kindergarten through college) for far right radicalization. thedailybeast.com/notorious-pizz…

I read the Trump-backed voter suppression bill, the so-called “Save America Act,” so you don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Please tell your Senators to vote NO on this abomination: 202-224-3121. TY. 1/ Image
You can read the Trump-backed “Save America Act” for yourself here. This bill expands upon the original so-called “SAVE Act”. 2/ congress.gov/119/bills/hr72…
3/ Here’s a link to the Brennan Center’s July 2025 report warning about the problems with both the SAVE System and the Social Security Number database when used to purge voters from the voter rolls, as would occur under the “Save America Act”. Everyone should read it. brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…

The SAVE America Act’s list of approved citizenship documentation is at the top. Marriage certificates are *not* included, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those who buy expensive passports or have “Enhanced Drivers Licenses” that do match) 1/Image

The GOP’s “SAVE America Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which misleads bc most Real IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship & thus won’t suffice.

The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/Image

Rs are using public confusion over Real ID to advance their deceptive Save America Act. In reality, for most voters, a Real ID will *not* suffice to prove citizenship under the Act—even if they presented a birth certificate to get it. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE. 202-224-3121 1/ Image

The GOP’s “SAVE Act” has a list of approved citizenship documentation for voters. It includes Real IDs that “indicate citizenship,” which is highly misleading bc most REAL IDs *don’t* indicate citizenship, per the DHS.

The list also does *not* include marriage certificates, effectively disenfranchising many of the 69M women whose last names don’t match their birth certificates (not an issue for those w/ passports or Enhanced Drivers Licenses that do match). #NoOnSAVE #ProtectOurVotes 1/Image

Most Real IDs do *not* prove citizenship. (EDLs, which are available in only 5 states are an exception) The GOP’s “SAVE” Act thus misleads when it says voters can prove citizenship w/ “ID issued consistent w/ the reqmts of…REAL ID…that indicates the applicant is a citizen…” 1/ Image
