A Republican-Backed Senate Report Shows Trump and His Backers Are Russian Dupes
The president and his allies fell for—and amplified—a Kremlin disinformation plot.

... many of those allies who fell for the Kremlin disinformation plot regularly commented on this thread with badly misplaced loyalty to President Trump.

Should the Democrats wipe out the Republicans in the Nov election capturing the Presidency, the Senate and Congress there will be a personal price to pay for all of President Trump's people who helped the Russians elect Trump.

Intelligence Committee Exposes Obama’s Corrupt FBI In Bombshell Report

The Senate Intelligence Committee has been conducting its own review of Russian interference of the 2016 Election. Including in that is an investigation in how the FBI and DOJ investigated Russia—and the Trump campaign, before and after the election. It’s been many years, but the committee has finally released its last report.
The Democrats would like nothing more than for Americans to forget about that whole Russian thing. But they spent years claiming our president was not legitimately elected, claiming Russia helped him win. They invalidated the votes of millions of Americans, all because they were bitter Clinton lost.
Remember, they backed the Mueller probe, an investigation that spent years and cost millions, all to reveal Trump wasn’t a Russian puppet. Yet even today, there are some Democrats that keep pushing that lie.
What we really learned is that Obama’s FBI and DOJ were up to some seriously shady behavior while “investigating” Russian meddling. They used a bogus dossier, provided by the Clinton campaign, to get a warrant against a Trump staffer. Then there was evidence they even tried to interfere with the transition, trying to string up Michael Flynn as a Russian asset.

No, we can’t forget what they were up to—especially because Joe Biden might have been involved. Now, the Senate Intelligence Committee has released its findings of the whole affair. And it raises some questions.
“We can say, without any hesitation, that the Committee found absolutely no evidence that then-candidate Donald Trump or his campaign colluded with the Russian government to meddle in the 2016 election,” Rubio said. “What the Committee did find, however, is very troubling.”
Rubio detailed the committee’s findings, which included “irrefutable evidence of Russian meddling” and “deeply troubling actions taken” by the FBI, “particularly their acceptance and willingness to rely on the ‘Steele Dossier’ without verifying its methodology or sourcing.”
The committee found that the FBI gave the dossier, authored by ex-British intelligence agent Christopher Steele, “unjustified credence, based on an incomplete understanding of Steele’s past reporting record.

The basis for the Obama admin’s entire investigation was the Steele dossier. They even used it to spy on Carter Page. Yet the Senate reveals the FBI knew the dossier was unverified. But they never bothered to verify its methodology or sourcing.
In layman’s terms, the FBI used a knowingly fake dossier to take down Trump. This was the FBI under Obama, so it’s not hard to see why they’d do this. Yet it is still a violation of our law and justice systems.
There has been ample evidence that the “deep state” tried to spoil Trump’s chances with this dossier. When he still won, they were working on an “insurance plan” to prevent him from taking office. The Senate’s report proves the FBI knew the dossier was bogus, yet they still used it.
The only reason why they’d do that was because they were trying to take down Trump, facts and evidence be damned.
But the real question is: why would they do that? Was Comey or other FBI officials really willing to violate the law just to hurt Trump? Or were they ordered to do it by Obama and Biden?
We know Biden was in on the effort to unmask Michael Flynn, exposing him to the media. What else did Biden know?

Is it possible that the former president or vice president were involved in trying to take down our democracy?
These are questions that can’t be ignored. Right now, the DOJ is conducting a criminal investigation into how this Russian probe got started. We’ve already learned quite a bit to know the law was broken.
So, how far did it go? And will the left try to cover it all up, once again?

Nope Better luck in 16 Years

The Senate just dropped a massive Russia bombshell (and most people missed it)

Consider what we learned on Tuesday (with help from CNN's Russia expert Marshall Cohen):

* Trump's campaign chairman Paul Manafort's "high-level access and willingness to share information with individuals closely affiliated with the Russian intelligence services" was regarded as a "grave counterintelligence threat," and his "presence on the Campaign and proximity to Trump created opportunities for Russian intelligence services to exert influence over, and acquire confidential information on, the Trump Campaign."

* Manafort was working directly with Konstantin Kilimnik, a Russian intelligence officer, and tried to share internal campaign information with him. The committee says it obtained "some information suggesting Kilimnik may have been connected" to Russia's 2016 hacking operation of Hillary Clinton's emails and the Democratic National Committee.

* Roger Stone was tasked by the campaign with finding all he could about what information WikiLeaks had about Clinton and Democrats more broadly, and "Trump and the Campaign believed that Stone had inside information and expressed satisfaction that Stone's information suggested more releases would be forthcoming."

* Two other Russians who took part in the June 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with the top brass of the President's campaign had "significant connections to Russian government, including the Russian intelligence services."

In the fight against disinformation, no single technology is a panacea, but there are approaches to different parts of the problem. Today, Microsoft announces Video Authenticator to detect #deepfakes and a new technology that can detect manipulated content so people know the media they’re viewing is authentic.

https://blogs.microsoft.com/on-the-issues/2020/09/01/disinformation-deepfakes-newsguard-video-authenticator/

There is no question that disinformation is widespread. Research from Professor Jacob Shapiro at Princeton, updated this month, cataloged 96 separate foreign influence campaigns targeting 30 countries between 2013 and 2019.

These campaigns, carried out on social media, sought to defame notable people, persuade the public or polarize debates.

While 26% of these campaigns targeted the U.S., other countries targeted include Armenia, Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Taiwan, Ukraine, the United Kingdom and Yemen.

Some 93% of these campaigns included the creation of original content, 86% amplified pre-existing content and 74% distorted objectively verifiable facts.

Recent reports also show that disinformation has been distributed about the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to deaths and hospitalizations of people seeking supposed cures that are actually dangerous.

Disinformation comes in many forms, and no single technology will solve the challenge of helping people decipher what is true and accurate.

One major issue is deepfakes, or synthetic media, which are photos, videos or audio files manipulated by artificial intelligence (AI) in hard-to-detect ways. They could appear to make people say things they didn’t or to be places they weren’t, and the fact that they’re generated by AI that can continue to learn makes it inevitable that they will beat conventional detection technology. However, in the short run, such as the upcoming U.S. election, advanced detection technologies can be a useful tool to help discerning users identify deepfakes.

Governments, companies, non-profits and others around the world have a critical part to play in addressing disinformation and election interference broadly. In 2018, the Paris Call for Trust & Security in Cyberspace brought together a multistakeholder group of global leaders committing to nine principles that will help ensure peace and security online. One of the most critical of these principles is defending electoral processes.

The problem isn't so much fake news, is the fact that too many Americans are ignorant. They can tell you LeBron's stat line but couldn't tell you Joe Biden's voting record in the senate. Doesn't take much to fool a low information voter.
