    Default The Trump impact on US policy (July 2017 on)

    Moderator's Note

    This is a new thread for July 2017 onwards.

    The previous thread covering January-June 2017 had 2,127 posts and 89k posts. It has now been closed:The Trump impact on US policy (ends).

    For those that took the time to read thoroughly through and between the lines of the Washington Post article on the Obama response to the Russian hacking and the Russian hacking itself you will notice a referral to the fact that Putin was on tape ordering the hacking and a subtle reference to someone else being on tape....

    APPEARS to be that Wapo has one tape and this journalist has heard and been privy to a second tape BOTH confirm and expand on each other...


    Paul Ryan Taped With Russian Ambassador On GOP Money#Laundering
    https://patribotics.blog/2017/06/09/...ey-laundering/

    Exclusive: Sources with links to the intelligence community now confirm that a tape exists of Paul Ryan, the Speaker of the House, discussing how Russian money could be funneled without detection to target GOP campaigns, including Ryan’s.
    These sources report that Mr. Ryan is also on tape discussing how he can best use and disseminate Wikileaks material that was hacked from the DNC by Russia in order to win both his own election and election for Trump.
    Further, sources say, the tape of Mr. Ryan discussing his knowledge of Russia funding the GOP that has previously been published in the Washington Post is in fact a small fragment of a much more damaging tape.
    Patribotics exclusively broke the news of that tape #one week before it was released in the mainstream media. In this story of May 11th I reported:
    On Paul Ryan, Speaker of the House, normally third in the line of succession, I can report as fact that sources say that Ryan has been legally intercepted, and is on tape, admitting that he knew Russian money was being laundered into the Republican party. Without co-operation pending resignation Ryan may find himself swept up into a RICO prosecution involving the apparatus of the Republican party who accepted laundered Russian money.
    A week later Adam Entous at the Washington Post printed his exclusive report on the partial content of that tape.
    My sources had clarified, at the time, that this tape was not the same as I had heard previously, namely, that Paul Ryan was directly on tape at the GOP convention discussing money laundering with the Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak. Reince Priebus was on tape doing so, these sources said.

    I read the Wall Street Journal’s article yesterday on attempts by a GOP operative to recover missing Hillary Clinton emails with more than usual interest. I was involved in the events that reporter Shane Harris described, and I was an unnamed source for the initial story. What’s more, I was named in, and provided the documents to Harris that formed the basis of, this evening’s follow-up story, which reported that “A longtime Republican activist who led an operation hoping to obtain Hillary Clinton emails from hackers listed senior members of the Trump campaign, including some who now serve as top aides in the White House, in a recruitment document for his effort”

    It seems that some at SWJ feel that the use by Russian info warfare is one discussion item BUT the use by the US President of the same tactics as the Russians and the intertwining of US al right ie white nationalist bots, and bot nets is not a discussion basis.....

    The accusations of Russian collusion whole still being investigated and not commented on by FBI SC Mueller although there are now 140 FBI investigators and 16 top flight Federal prosecutors should say a lot more than it seems to say to many Americans.

    BUT the threat and use of info warfare by Trump and his alt right supporters is just as dangerous as the use of Russian info warfare directed at the US.....

    RMEMBER Russian info warfare is composed of two key cornerstones....

    1. cyber warfare
    2. info warfare


    Here's an interesting thread - folks at /r/The_Donald discussing/helping one another with bot creation.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/...tting/#…

    NOTE...Trump twitter account "Followers" has increased 100,000 in under 24 hours...all automated bots created, paid for and managed not in the US....

    To Make Your Conspiracy Theory Legit, Just Find an 'Expert'

    https://www.wired.com/2017/05/conspi...heory-experts/

    In some neighborhoods of the internet, all it takes to start a conspiracy theory is Photoshop, a webcam, and confidence. Susli—aka PartisanGirl—has thrived in that environment, parlaying a college chemistry degree and a series of conspiracy-minded YouTube videos into a new kind of internet authority. But when conspiratorial musings bubble up into the mainstream web or cable news, it’s not because Don Lemon or Ashleigh Banfield took PartisanGirl seriously. To make it in the major leagues, a conspiracy theory—or any other kind of hoax—has to find a voice with a mainstream claim to credibility. A voice like Postol's.

    Cynthia Storer‏ @CindyStorer
    The NRA is feeding an us vs them narrative of the kind that fuels all extremist movements. I should know.

    NOTE
    Cindy was a CIA terrorism analyst. She was the first to warn of Al-Qaeda in the early 90s. She developed the CIA's radicalization model.



    The NRA recruitment video that is even upsetting gun owners

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.b2f0a8b3c573

    But these are the opening lines of a new recruitment video by the National Rifle Association of America that is headlined by conservative television host Dana Loesch. The Blaze personality and NRA spokeswoman doesn’t hold back, painting a stark picture of the U.S. political climate that some have interpreted as an ad designed to provoke fear, if not incite violence.
    “I’m an old white guy and a life member, but this BS is disgusting,” Facebook user Eric Eugene Rush commented under the post. “When you spew crap like this, you don’t speak for me anymore. I try to avoid doing things on the spur of the moment, but I’ll be thinking about canceling my membership.”

    “Jeeeeesus … it almost looks like you’re encouraging violence against demonstrators,”

    “It is beyond stupid." Experts warn Trump voter-fraud panel’s data request a gold mine for hackers

    http://politi.co/2ufROjk

    Is it not strange that a Republican contractor...SCL...located in UK and formerly owned by Bannon Trump's special advisor and then sold to the Mercer family that owns big data company Cambridge Analytica also parked in UK posted the voting data and personal data of 200M US voters unsecured on an Amazon cloud server for 21 days and then it got "stolen".......

    BTW..no one and that includes SCL "knows" who stole the data......

    AND not a single MSM loud cry .......nothing but silence BUT this voter data with far less persoanl information get massive MSM coverage?????

    In order to fully understand Russian non linear warfare which actually supports Russian political warfare in this case fully directed at the US you must understand the eight phases of Russian non linear warfare....

    BUT the two key elements that support the eight phases we are seeing right now in the US.....and in Europe

    1. cyber warfare
    2. information warfare .....information warfare also has two parts
    a. weaponizing information in general meaning...completely distorting the term "Truth".....to actually mean to people FAKE.....or "alternative truth"
    b. weaponizing social media ie FB, Instrgram, Reddit, Twitter etc.

    The Russian non linear warfare has eight distinct phases. The first and second phases consist of non-military asymmetric warfare. They include information warfare, psychological, ideological, diplomatic, and economic measures, but also special operations conducted to mislead political and military leaders. Coordinated measures are carried out by diplomatic channels, media, top government and military agencies; they include leaking false data, orders, directives, and instructions. The third phase’s objective is to consolidate the first two, by intimidating, deceiving, or bribing government and military officers, with the objective of making them abandon their duties. The fourth phase is the one including the “polite green men”. It encompasses destabilizing propaganda to increase discontent among the population, boosted by the arrival of bands of militants to escalate subversion. Only with the fifth phase military action per se begins, although still in an indirect way. It consists of establishing no-fly zones over the country to be attacked, imposing blockades, and extensively using private military companies in close cooperation with armed opposition units. This is as far as events have progressed in Ukraine at this moment.

    The sixth phase is the beginning of employing direct military measures, with large-scale reconnaissance and subversive missions, including but not limited to special operations forces. The seventh phase is a combination of targeted information campaign, electronic warfare, and aerospace operations, combined with the use of high-precision weapons (long-range artillery, possibly weapons based on new physical principles, including microwaves, radiation/radiology, non-lethal biological weapons). The eighth phase’s aims are to roll over the remaining points of resistance and destroy surviving enemy units.
    Only when one fully understands the above and is fully able to process that say the President of the US has roughly 18M non human "Followers"...then you understand Russian non linear warfare.....

    If you fully understand and can actually see Trump and proTrump voters conducting info war even in the US against all those that do not support Trump......THEN you fully understand Russian non linear warfare.....THIs though requires one to jump over a shadow...the shadow that yes even Americans can be and are willingly controlled by Russian propaganda and misinformation....no questions asked.

    And that is inherently dangerous for US democracy.......and the core question is how is that possible.....

    Can anyone explain just why it is that Trump tends to use the same tactics as Russian info warfare especially the Russian 6Ds Propaganda Principles.....

    Distort...Deflect...Distract...Dismiss...ALL designed to create Doubt and Distrust.......


    So in this set of Trump tweets.......how many of the 6Ds is Trump actually using?????

    Why does a US President Resort to Russian info war tactics????

    If Trump doesn't raise election interference with Putin, he's inviting more in 2018
    http://wapo.st/2uDkhis?tid=ss_tw-bot....b8ff146e0049#

    Currently the US still has not seen the Trump promised within 90 days cyber defense plan.....NOR has Trump actually openly and publicly stated yes he knows Russia hacked the US election and voting databases in 21 states.....

    AND from the current leader of the KKK who is totally peaceful and does not utter a single word of hate.....or racism...or is anti Muslim .......or anti immigrant....and this is not propaganda??


    David Duke‏#
    @DrDavidDuke

    I have literally been the target of "Journalist" terrorism for 50yrs. The climate of hated/violence your profession has created is shameful.

    The leader of the KKK critiquing journalists for attacking the KKK....

    Information warfare comes in various colors and forms.....US or Russian and lately they are sharing the same goals for some strange reason....

    CNN is reporting that Trump won’t raise Russia’s attempt to throw our election when he meets Putin, even though Russia will try again in ’18
