To falsely paint an organic US campaign to expose illegal wiretapping of the Trump campaign as a Russian active measure, Cold Warrior Dems turned to a shady outfit called the Alliance for Securing Democracy (ASD) to provide "expert" data
Here's the hard proof it was all fake 🧵
The Hamilton 68 piece of ASD was fronted by spook & fake Russia expert Clint Watts
In 2017, I detailed how @selectedwisdom's congressional testimony on the Russian bot plague consisted almost entirely of blatant lies - including one discredited in court thegrayzone.com/2017/11/08/cli…
I also demonstrated how Hamilton 68 was modeled by Andrew Weisburd, a serial online harasser who is most likely the figure behind the infamous PropOrNot scam
These frauds branded ESPN, Stars and Stripes & Colin Kaepernick as vehicles for Russian disinfo thegrayzone.com/2017/11/10/mcc…
Caught up w/ the Ukrainian diaspora delegation on their way into the Capitol to cheer for Zelensky
They told me $45 billion wasn't enough, neo-Nazis do not exist in Ukraine and the banning of the Russian wing of the Orthodox Church & oppo parties was justified bc "martial law"
Also managed to catch a seemingly lost Sen. Joe Manchin, who told me he is “all in” to send Ukraine all the billions it asks for from the US
Manchin then deployed a cellphone to ignore all my follow up questions before he passed through the fence blocking off the Capitol
The scene two blocks from the US Capitol, as Zelensky appealed for more than $45 billion in additional military aid to continue a proxy war through 2023
Top corporate media editors & national security hacks were convened at the Aspen Institute and programmed on how to frame disclosures from Hunter Biden's laptop as a Russian hack-and-dump operation, and were given instructions on how to be effective anti-Trump/Putin infowarriors
Wired, which was spawned as a PR vehicle for US intel, hyped the 2020 Hunter Biden tabletop exercise
Reporters were given instructions to "slow" disclosures on the laptop, "contextualize" as Russian hacking, doubt their veracity and "control" the message wired.com/story/opinion-…
Tonight at the National Press Club, ex-CIA counsel @MarkSZaidEsq made the case against Assange
I asked Zaid his view of the USG recruiting a pedophile who confessed to lying about Assange as a key witness
Zaid’s said he helped “guys w/child porn issues” get security clearances
Zaid deflected about his Twitter boast that he’d “gotten security clearances for guys who had child porn issues,” then claimed he’d never heard of Siggi Thordarson, the pedophile and confessed liar recruited by the FBI as a key witness against Assange.
Siggi Thordarson, a key US DOJ witness vs Assange & career criminal, admitted in an interview he fabricated statements used in the US indictment against Assange, lied about being a close Assange associate, and was jailed in Iceland for rampant lawbreaking. stundin.is/grein/14117/
I despise the corporate media that heroizes Chinese protesting interminable lockdowns.
Not because those Chinese citizens are wrong, but because that same media painted the Westerners who defied the Covidian regime as criminals as they bravely defended their basic human rights.
Beyond the corporate media, there's the respectable leftists torn between anti-communism and fealty to the Covidian regime @NaomiAKlein celebrates Chinese protesters but branded her fellow Canadians protesting lockdowns and vax mandates as white supremacists in league with Putin
NY Times tech pundit @zeynep is enthralled by Chinese citizens protesting 100 day+ Covid lockdowns and relentless testing.
Yet Zeynep Tufekci proudly called the Twitter manager on accounts that loudly condemned school closures and the damage they did to a generation of US youth.
The censors at Instagram have removed @KitKlarenberg’s factual exposé of the Ukrainian govt’s fundraising partnership with FTX.
IG claims “independent fact-checkers” determined Kit’s piece to be false.
But they justified the removal on bogus grounds. 🧵
Instagram’s “independent fact-checkers” branded @TheGrayzoneNews’s article false because there’s no evidence Democrats used FTX to launder money in Ukraine.
But Kit’s article explicitly states the same thing.
Which makes it clear this takedown was an act political censorship.
This investigation by @KitKlarenberg is a devastating and entirely factual look at the open and clearly corrupt partnership between Ukraine and FTX.
Its removal by IG recalls the election season censorship and suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story. thegrayzone.com/2022/11/15/ftx…
