Watts and Weisburd(out of work web-designer) both work as consultants and do training and research programs for a range of military(US Military, NATO, and NATO partners- Latvia, Ukraine, et al), intelligence(ODNI, CIA, FBI, NSA, et al) and law enforcement entities.
We are going to define the big WHO that was on trial at the Senate hearing. Let's look at how credible the track record has been for this group of experts. Starting with election interference, we'll look at other major international events that shaped US policy. This group shaped the news narrative of the past few years providing stories including the Russian influence and election interference, the Syrian gas attacks (past and present), and the MH-17 disaster. You won't be surprised to know that most of the MSM information only comes from these select sources.
When the Washington Post first introduced propornot with Clint Watts it was signaling the beginning of a new information policy. The problem is other than RT or Sputnik, Russia doesn't publish the news, opinion, and analysis the websites listed on propornot covers. The list itself was a copy and paste of Aaron Weisburd's list at aktivnye.com and the websites are American.
From liberal to conservative, Sanders to Trump, if you didn't vote for Hillary Clinton the Senate hearings is all the trial by peers you are entitled to. You are on trial and like Joseph K, no one else is going to tell you why.
What is interesting from the above image is that redstate.com is decidedly anti-Trump conservatives. According to Weisburd and Watts, both redstate.com and Trump are on Putin's payroll along with globalresearch.ca. They don't even need to be consistent.
According to Senator Mark Warner said in the latest case, "the paid trolls apparently focused on swing states in an attempt to influence votes there -- Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania -- where people were "reading during the waning days of the election that "'Clinton is sick,' or 'Clinton is taking money from whoever for some source' " fake news...Warner said it's crucial that investigators determine if voting results were actually affected. Each of the three states narrowly fell to Trump."
Someone, please enlighten the poor Senator that you can't carpet bomb a large voting bloc's families and then expect their vote. There was a good reason Clinton stayed away from the states Warner mentioned. The information he is quoting comes from Weisburd protege Jessika Aro, whose fabrication was included in the ODNI report in January.
How does the Senator know what people were reading? Warner tried to describe botnets. In reality the confused man was describing the websites that make up the propornot list. Quite recently propornot added Rollingstone's Matt Tiabbi to the list. He is again referring to Weisburds work on websites and geolocating readers to find out where media influence is.
The Senate hearings and follow-ups are about controlling what information the general public has available to it starting with the propornot list. What they are after isn't just to control what you read or the facts you know, this time they want to control how you think. As information policy starts to sanction these sites new domestic enemies will found in larger publications.
How do I know this? I'm taking an industrial view. Screw the politics. Both sides of the aisle are playing this game. All the pigs are sucking at the same lobbyist tit and selling Americans and the world out in the process.
If Sanders won the nomination and ran against Jeb Bush, the climate today would be the same. Both sides of the aisle cater to large blocs that first get them through the primaries. In a Sanders vs Bush run, these same blocs would have voted Republican. A Sanders win would have similar consequences as Trump but for different reasons.
Commie, commie, commie, commie...is the one thing a nationalist hates more than life itself or Russians, for that matter. Sanders would have been painted red to lose. At his victory, many of the moneyed people deep frying Donald Trump would have done it to him too.
The point is this problem is on both sides. It started years ago on the Republican side of the aisle. The activist groups are the largest and most well-heeled that exist in the world today. Yes, it includes George Soros (Hungarian nationalist). At the street level, they are the most active and they can't be touched in terms of contributions to campaigns.
The propornot story started out as a paid or placed article by these same activists. It did its job by igniting a shitstorm of anti-Russian media fallout. The same people that provided the websites on the list, testified as the experts before Congress this time, as well as multiple times before.
