Trump envoy relied on Kremlin interpreter in meetings with Putin to end war in #Ukraine

@wdlindsy this is exactly the way old people with dementia behave. They get an idea into their head and nothing will dislodge it.
They think they’re right, and no amount of reasoning or concrete evidence will change their mind.

However, it does demonstrate very well how he is completely under the control of his minders. They know exactly how to manipulate his thought process and deliberately exposed him to the Photoshop picture without telling him it was false.

@dzwiedziu @fj @signalapp not really, as the #Metadata #FUD cited by #Signal is mitigateable with proper measures.

  • You can't even run Signal over @torproject and even if that point is moot when you're forced to quasi-#KYC by virtue of a #PhoneNumber aka. #PII they have neither legitimate interest nor technical reason to demand in the first place!

Every claim that things like #ITsec, #InfoSec, #OpSec & #ComSec can be solved with "Just use Signal!" is "#TechPopulism" at best if not being a "#UsefulIdiot"!

From the convicted #felon who blamed the Capitol police for the #Jan6th violence, coming now to #CorporateMedia outlets near you: a new breathtaking special of unabashed lying, blaming #Ukraine for getting invaded by Russia. #Corporate #media is as usual focused on their profit margins and enabling the #oligarchy that its owners want, so they will faithfully repeat the lies enough times to give them the ring of familiarity.
