Ball of Thread

In honor of Don Jr's oligarch-funded wedding party, we're reissuing the Ball of Thread Series from a few years back. Episode 1 covers how I understand the 2016 Russian attack to include not just several attempts to recruit Americans and stoke polarization, but also laid the groundwork for three devastating attacks on the US intelligence community.

In a perfect phone call in July 2019 orchestrated for months by mobbed up corrupt Ukrainians -- some backed by Russia -- Trump attempted to corrupt the newly elected president of Ukraine, who had been elected on an anti-corruption platform. That attempted failed, but the aftermath corrupted virtually the entire Republican Party. Produced by LOLGOP Studios.   / lolgopstudios   A buck a month to help save democracy is all we ask.

Donald Trump has rolled out a Fraud Task Force, under JD Vance and Scott Brady (the guy who set up a way to criminally frame Joe and Hunter Biden). It itself is pretty fraudulent: an effort to shift attention and investigative focus away from the kind of fraud Trump commits to demonize brown people and defund Blue states.
