Oh, What a Surprise: The "Cybersecurity" Firm That Ran the False-Flag Fake "Russian Bots" to Interfere in the Alabama Senate Election Has Links to... Fusion GPS

I think this weird feeling that I'm feeling is the feeling of "seeing a pattern."

Chuck Ross:


* A non-profit group linked to Fusion GPS has ties to a cybersecurity firm recently implicated in a self-described "false flag" operation in the Alabama Senate race.

* The Democracy Integrity Project, which works with Fusion GPS and dossier author Christopher Steele, partnered before the 2018 midterms with New Knowledge, an Austin-based firm that has been tied to an operation that created fake Russian bots in Alabama’s December 2017 special election.

* New Knowledge recently produced a report for the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, and TDIP's founder was in contact with two Democrats from the committee.

...

A nonprofit group linked to Fusion GPS and partially funded by George Soros worked in recent months with a technology company implicated in a scheme to use fake Russian bots during Alabama’s special Senate election.

The groups, the Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP) and New Knowledge, partnered before the 2018 midterms to track alleged Russian disinformation networks, a website the organizations collaboratively run shows.

Both organizations have links to the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI), which is investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 election, as well as possible Trump campaign collusion.

SSCI provided New Knowledge with data from various social media companies as part of an investigation into Russian disinformation networks, according to a report New Knowledge released Dec. 17. Two days later, news broke that New Knowledge's chief executive was involved in a self-described "false flag" operation in the special election for a Senate seat in Alabama, as was another staffer who was the lead author on the Senate report.

TDIP is also linked to the Senate Intelligence panel. Its founder, Daniel J. Jones, was previously a staffer for Democrats on SSCI. He was also in contact in early 2017 with Virginia Sen. Mark Warner, the Democratic vice chairman of SSCI. As part of TDIP's own Trump-Russia investigation, the group hired Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele, the author of the anti-Trump dossier.

The extent of Warner's contacts with Jones remain unclear.

...

Neither TDIP nor New Knowledge responded to multiple requests for comment.

I wonder if the new House Foreign Affairs Committee will be investigating this Interference in Our Precious Democracy, or if our democracy isn't so precious when Democrat hit-men are assassinating it.

He previously worked as a researcher and investigator for the U.S. Senate and the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). As a staff member of the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, he led several prominent investigations, including the largest investigative review in U.S. Senate history, the Senate Intelligence Committee report on CIA torture. The investigation, which was based on more than 6.3 million pages of classified documents, was described by the Los Angeles Times as the "most extensive review of U.S. intelligence-gathering tactics in generations..."Jones was the subject of a three-part series in The Guardian in September 2016. He is currently a Fellow at Harvard's Carr Center for Human Rights Policy.

Jones runs a nonprofit initiative called the Democracy Integrity Project.

93 Fusion GPS was exposed for the peepee party dossier, their handler was relieved of his position at the top of the FBI, the President and his voters were openly furious with them, and the House Intelligence Committee was investigating them.

Any normal company, so deeply implicated in such serious crimes, would pause political activity. Or, just dissolve and reorganize like ACORN did.

Instead, they turned around and directly interfered in yet another election.

These are the actions of people with less-than-zero fear of the law.

Nothing and no one is perfect. I have come to the conclusion that one flaw in the American mind is the assumption that, because the Founders did such a good job, we didn't really worry enough about the "if you can keep it" part.

That, and my father's theory that his generation (the "greatest" one) had, between the depression and WWII been infected with a deep trust of the government, and those in charge, generally. Both to do the right thing, and to figure out what that is.

Whether the disappearance of standards started with the electorate or not, it's the electorate that allows it to continue (hell, rewards it). Enough of the medieval peasant act - blaming dark unseen forces. The electorate has shown it can be ignored, abused, bamboozled, rented, and otherwise made to support the degradation of the country.

They just found the bodies of two boys out on the Mesa here and for all we know their murders were related to gangs that operate in that sphere.

They ALSO kill, rape, sell, torture a whole lot of people who aren't American citizens. Anyone who is arguing against treating this as a problem is treating those victims as having no value as well. Not-a-crisis-Acosta not excepted.

And that's not even starting into the big "jobs Americans won't do" thing that liberals like to trot out as if it's an actual argument in their favor. "Oh golly! Americans won't work jobs that break labor laws!" Lets get us some Mexicans...

152 Jones, who registered TDIP on Jan. 31, 2017, told the FBI in late March 2017 his organization had hired Fusion GPS and Steele, a former MI6 officer, to continue investigations into Russian meddling in the U.S. elections that began with funding from the DNC and Clinton campaign. Jones also told the FBI the project had received $50 million in funding from between seven and 10 wealthy liberal donors.IRS records suggest TDIP did not receive all of that funding at once. Information from the nonprofit's tax filings show the group received $9 million in 2017.

Around the same time as his meeting with the FBI, Jones reached out to Waldman, an attorney with a myriad of links to players in the Russia saga. Waldman represented Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska and has apparent links to Steele.

Waldman told TheDCNF Jones told him that Fusion GPS was involved with TDIP. He also said Jones claimed Soros had provided funding for TDIP's anti-Trump operation.

But will the education chief, deeply implicated in the crime-cover-up program that helped produce the killer (his ability to legally buy a firearm, at a minimum), Runcie, also be canned?


Broward seems like a microcosm of America, a place where voters repeatedly elect complete idiots and corrupt dipshits, to the point where it literally gets them killed. Wonder if Sheriff Israel would waltz to re-election, if not canned by the governor?

sundance pointed out that when Trump backed off on declassifying the FISA warrant(s) on Carter Page that he specifically included concerns raised by our allies in his decision. I think it's likely that some of the info used in the warrants either came from foreign intelligence agencies and/or was laundered through them. It may take decades for the truth to come out, but come out it will.

Just from the facts not in dispute we can see it's much, much, much worse than Watergate.
