“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Oregon’s Ron Wyden on Wednesday accused a GOP colleague of essentially working as a Kremlin operative. They called Homeland Security Chairman Ron Johnson’s work a ‘disgrace,’ claimed his committee was funneling ‘Russian disinformation,’ and introduced a resolution demanding he cease.

Something different, and remarkable.

For what its worth, this story is mainstream confirmation of Millie Weaver’s ShadowNet video I shared a couple of weeks ago. The significance is in illustrating the techniques and technology of psychological warfare as they are being applied to the American public.

It is startling that a memo like the one at the link should ever have been necessary. You would think the executive agencies of our government were sufficiently aware of the principles of the nation’s founding to guard against anti-American propaganda. But apparently this was not the case.

Numerous elaborately detailed analyses of the video-taped murder of Aaron Danielson in Portland are available. Many portray sophisticated surveillance/command-and-control tactics employed by Antifa/BLM operatives to isolate and assassinate the victim. The current story contributes the observation that the police apparently concur with speculation that the murder was orchestrated to some extent.

On AUG 22, 2020, a violent #BlackLivesMatter mob swarmed the Trump Unity Bridge in Beverly Hills. The Trump Unity Bridge responded to #BLM with a DANCE OFF to their unifying theme song MAGA / YMCA!
