Right-Wing Trumpist News Site Busted as Putin Troll Farm Operation

[Cuddles]

Reminder - Your research skills are poor. It does not imply someone is lying.

Lets see...you've stated I've LIED, made FALSE CLAIMS and now you state I MAKE SHIT...FLAIL with 'muh both sides' routine.

• Why do you persist so strongly about something you consider to be a LIE and FALSE CLAIMS ?

I posted a quote from an article and you're not able to locate the article to read the entire article. Like I said...poor research skills. I then gave you a hint via stating "Financial Network / Sites" posting articles about such although I'm sure other sites heavy into politics may have picked up the info or they've done their own research...

Still not good enough for you and you're still unable to locate links on your own.

My point, if you're able to prove your research skills and take off the blinders...

I may share more info with you that may include just links without me "quoting" a few paragraphs from the article.

Yet, you're more than welcome to believe I'm LYING about their existence or LYING that China is guilty too.

• Then again, why would that bother you to know someone out there is reading info about China's online social media behaviour along with the same about Russia ???

No False Claims

I'm not that naive to believe only Russia is guilty but you seemed to be.

P.S. I'm confident that after someone post links for you...you will then say it's not relevant when the real issue is that you weren't able to find the same info on your own.

Trump's own DNI couldn't come up w/credible links of Chinese election interference. They issued a memo trying to pass this off as fact by saying the "Chinese & Iranians prefer Biden" and then equivocating it to actual Russian efforts.

The Chinese have online trolls no doubt, but their efforts so far has been in trying to paint a rosier picture of China's internal and foreign policy in dealing with Hong kong, trade, Uyghurs, etc...

Ahead of the 2020 U.S. elections, foreign states will continue to use covert and overt influence measures in their attempts to sway U.S. voters’ preferences and perspectives, shift U.S. policies, increase discord in the United States, and undermine the American people’s confidence in our democratic process. They may also seek to compromise our election infrastructure for a range of possible purposes, such as interfering with the voting process, stealing sensitive data, or calling into question the validity of the election results. However, it would be difficult for our adversaries to interfere with or manipulate voting results at scale.

Many foreign actors have a preference for who wins the election, which they express through a range of overt and private statements; covert influence efforts are rarer. We are primarily concerned about the ongoing and potential activity by China, Russia, and Iran.

• CHINA – We assess that China prefers that President Trump – whom Beijing sees as unpredictable – does not win reelection. China has been expanding its influence efforts ahead of November 2020 to shape the policy environment in the United States, pressure political figures it views as opposed to China’s interests, and deflect and counter criticism of China. Although China will continue to weigh the risks and benefits of aggressive action, its public rhetoric over the past few months has grown increasingly critical of the current Administration’s COVID-19 response, closure of China’s Houston Consulate, and actions on other issues. For example, it has harshly criticized the Administration’s statements and actions on Hong Kong, TikTok, the legal status of the South China Sea, and China’s efforts to dominate the 5G market. Beijing recognizes that all of these efforts might affect the presidential race.

• RUSSIA – We assess that Russia is using a range of measures to primarily denigrate former Vice President Biden and what it sees as an anti-Russia “establishment.” This is consistent with Moscow’s public criticism of him when he was Vice President for his role in the Obama Administration’s policies on Ukraine and its support for the anti-Putin opposition inside Russia. For example, pro-Russia Ukrainian parliamentarian Andriy Derkach is spreading claims about corruption – including through publicizing leaked phone calls – to undermine former Vice President Biden’s candidacy and the Democratic Party. Some Kremlin-linked actors are also seeking to boost President Trump’s candidacy on social media and Russian television.

• IRAN – We assess that Iran seeks to undermine U.S. democratic institutions, President Trump, and to divide the country in advance of the 2020 elections. Iran’s efforts along these lines probably will focus on on-line influence, such as spreading disinformation on social media and recirculating anti-U.S. content. Tehran’s motivation to conduct such activities is, in part, driven by a perception that President Trump’s reelection would result in a continuation of U.S. pressure on Iran in an effort to foment regime change.
