That Aronoff tweet is really bad. In context of story it’s a list of oligarchs whose companies have come up in the investigation. I agree though that it would be bad if it were the thing it’s being misrepresented as/random Russians.

i feel like Mensch's 15 minutes are about up (in America, anyway), and certainly will be once Trump is gone. D'Souza will be trolling us til he dies with movies like "Snacking on Aborted Babies and Raping Lady Liberty: George Soros' America"

I heard that one of the parts of “Hillary’s America” warns that if she’s elected Vladimir Putin would be emboldened and there’s nefarious footage of Putin exiting a plane, so it sort of became dated and out of step with the right wing narrative that took shape during the election.

how and why did russia succeed in intervening in an american presidential election on behalf of one of the candidates?
With the 2018 midterm elections set to begin little more than a month from now, Senator Warner says that’s still the big story, even if it’s in danger of being lost in a drumbeat of partisan name-calling.
“If you add up all of the money Russia spent interfering in our election; if you add on what they spent in the French elections, where Facebook took down 50,000 sites that were connected to Russia because they’d seen the Russian intervention, if you add up what they spent on the Dutch elections, where the Dutch hand-counted all of their ballots because they were so afraid of Russian intervention,” he tells me. “You add all that up and you’re still talking about less money than the cost of one new F-35 airplane.”

The U.S. official in charge of protecting American elections from hacking says the Russians successfully penetrated the voter registration rolls of several U.S. states prior to the 2016 presidential election.
In an exclusive interview with NBC News, Jeanette Manfra, the head of cybersecurity at the Department of Homeland Security, said she couldn't talk about classified information publicly, but in 2016, "We saw a targeting of 21 states and an exceptionally small number of them were actually successfully penetrated."

i confess that i'm a little confused by why the nsa would want to buy the stolen documents back from russia. sorry if i'm being naive but wouldn't the russians just make a copy of the documents? or it's some sort of special document that cannot be copied? or...the americans never made a copy in the first place so lost the original, only copy they had?
