-The Senate votes 68-23 to advance a measure that opposes DJT’s attempt to withdraw troops from Afghanistan and Syria
-Of the 418 Russian accounts Twitter recently removed, the hashtags they used most:
#ReleaseTheMemo -- 38,000 times
#MAGA -- 38,000 times
#IslamisTheProblem -- 18,000 times
-DJT: "I didn't see the report from the intelligence,” and, "When you read it, it is a lot different than what is covered in the news"
#releasethememo #maga #islamistheproblem
9. Hamilton 68 was the source for stories claiming Russian bots pushed terms like “deep state” or hashtags like #FireMcMaster, #SchumerShutdown, #WalkAway, #ReleaseTheMemo, #AlabamaSenateRace, and #ParklandShooting, among many others. https://twitter.com/mtaibbi/status/1619029819584565249

Also my story wasn’t about 2016 or the GRU. It was about the grossly dishonest campaign by your congressional colleagues to depict the #ReleaseTheMemo hashtag as driven by Russian influence. Care to address the actual story? https://twitter.com/tedlieu/status/1613708599238205442
He says there were zero Russian accounts promoting #Releasethememo, but then says it was being amplified by WikiLeaks, which Trump's own administration called a "hostile intelligence service" aided by Russia.
Democrats, mainstream media knowingly pushed false 'Russian disinfo' hoax on Twitter
Taibbi said in summation "A consistent theme of the #TwitterFiles has been concrete evidence that Russiagate headlines were manufactured by politicians and media — the thread below blows up the absurd #ReleaseTheMemo panic stoked by SenFeinstein, SenBlumenthal, and AdamSchiff, among others."

30. By spreading the Russia collusion hoax, they instigated one of the greatest outbreaks of mass delusion in U.S. history.”
This #ReleaseTheMemo episode is just one of many in the #TwitterFiles. The Russiagate scandal was built on the craven dishonesty of politicians and reporters, who for years ignored the absence of data to fictional scare headlines.
