Anyone doubt how effective Russia’s influence campaign on 🇺🇸 over last 7 years? warontherocks.com/2016/11/trolli…
Prime time cable news host Tucker spends night after night worried about Putin’s interests, not americas interest to advance democracy & strengthen alliances nbcnews.com/think/amp/ncna…
We have Tucker Carlson pushing Russian foreign policy via TV/social media to American political right & Snowden suddenly chirping about peace to American political left on social media = convergence
as expected, adding to this thread

Final installment, Part 3 of Assessing Domestic Extremism A Year After #Jan6 "Where Is Domestic Terrorism Headed In 2022?" clintwatts.substack.com/p/where-is-dom…
Several scenarios to worry about in 2022. Namely that an office holder at state/ local level does not respect the outcome of confirmed vote tallies, interferes with voting/counting, claims they won when they did not and refuses to leave office.
This would set off a chain reaction if protests/counter protests with high probability of violence

As a reminder, this is the entire point of Russian Active Measures. For the Kremlin, it has clearly worked. 🇺🇸 has disabled 🇺🇸. “Win through the force of politics, rather than the politics of force”
From the start, Russia's active measures campaigns have sought to elevate outsized voices in U.S. politics that can advance Kremlin goals. warontherocks.com/2016/11/trolli…
7 years later, Fox news is broadcast on Russian news & Putin is backed over the U.S. President on nighttime television. nbcnews.com/think/opinion/…
