“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

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.”

😳 Michael Anton, a former Trump national security official, said in 2022 that “it was now his ‘goal in life’ to ‘convince a thousand conservative intellectuals to think seriously about the conditions under which they would engage in armed revolution against the government.’ (He insisted that he himself was not advocating for such a revolution at this time.)” 1/ nationalreview.com/2023/07/freedo…Image

Dear Media: Laura Loomer literally calls Roger Stone her “mentor” and “bestie”. Stone, in turn, has been a Trump confidante for decades. Stone was also a chief architect of “Stop the Steal”. This is why Loomer is now parading around with Trump. She’s Stone’s protege. 1/

2/ Loomer and Stone are two peas in a pod. Image
