How cruel for this to pop up in my YouTube feed today. TBH I don't even recall watching the skit 10 years ago — probably too angry at the time to find humor in what has turned out to be the nightmare we're still living now.
Well, I watched it and had to laugh to keep from crying... NICE JOB, AMERICA /s 🤬
In 2016, We Already Knew How Bad This Would Get

#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: Maybe The Russian Bots Were Jeffrey Epstein The Whole Time
A portrait of a man and his social media influence operations.
I have been patiently waiting for someone to report on the fact that among the #Epstein documents released in November is incontrovertible proof that Epstein was working with hackers in #Dubai to monitor and/or influence the progress of the 2016 American election on social media. Alas so far I have been disappointed, and so it has fallen to me to point this out.
tl;dr Epstein was receiving regular reports about social media vibes w/r/t #HillaryClinton and #Trump from a seller of "offensive cybersecurity services" who was partnered up with a young woman from #Uzbekistan.

New Reports on Russian Interference Don’t Show What #Trump Says They Do
[ya don’t say🙄?]
A January 2017 assessment said that President Vladimir #Putin of #Russia had ordered a multifaceted information operation targeting the US #2016election.
The admin’s claims are overblown, but newly declassified information provides some messy details about a Jan 2017 #intelligence assessment of Moscow’s #ElectionInterference.

Statement from Patrick Rodenbush, Spokesperson for President Obama:
"Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction."

An over 3-year US #Senate #Intelligence Cmte investigation found in 2020 that #Russia used Republican political operative #PaulManafort, the WikiLeaks website & others to try to influence the #2016election to help Trump's campaign.
"The leader of the gang is President Obama, Barack Hussein Obama," #Trump said, saying without evidence that Obama's actions were treason.

#TulsiGabbard also released a timeline that outlines events leading up to the 2017 assessment that #Russia attempted to #influence the #2016election. The timeline focuses on the conclusions by #intelligence community officials that Russia likely had not & would not use cyber means to directly compromise voter systems or change vote tallies.
🚨 WARNING -- #FakeNews ALERT 🚨
Right NOW, on #YouTube , there is an onslaught of identical #bot videos being posted at the EXACT same time to at least *24* different accounts, and others soon after that. All of the accounts mimic local news channels, but are fake accounts, from different major networks.
For example:
CBS Austin
News 4 (WOAI) San Antonio
News 5 WCYB
The National Desk
ABC 7 Amarillo
Fox Nashville
WRSP/WCCU Fox 55/27 Illinois
KOKH
KFOX 14
Tulsa's News Channel 8
...And more.
My attempt to leave comments on each, warning that it is a bot video and AI spam campaign, have been repeatedly deleted by the video poster.
All of them are about #TulsiGabbard launching an investigation into #RussianInterference in the #2016Election at the instruction of #DonaldTrump. Most-- but not all-- use the headline, "Trump Wants to Reveal 2016 Election Sabotage Claims."
