Southern AGs finally focusing on election â oh.
The Alabama AG better find that everything was kosher otherwise he will have to indict the whole Trump campaign.
It might be more fruitful if he investigated why Roy Moore got himself banned from the local mall. Those then-teenagers deserve a measure of justice.
If I understand this effort - it was at trying to create the impression that there was a Russian Bot campaign supporting Moore.
And part of the AG interest is to determine if these social media manipulation had an impact on the outcome of the election.
To suspect this, I would have to believe that a voter would be more persuaded to vote against Moore because of alleged Russian bots that I would due to his predatory actions and assaults of teenage girls, his being deemed disqualified and thrown of the State Supreme Court - twice, and his fraudulent self-enrichment from his âFoundationâ. That seems quite the stretch in logic.
That said - I do think all instances of serious voter manipulation should be looked into. Included voter ID laws, altering early voting times and places that convenience some and make it exceptionally hard for others to vote, etc.
âEfforts to confuse voters included creating a misleading Facebook page curated to attract Republicans who did not want to vote for Moore.â
Fake disinformationâŚ
Though it would be the equivalent of opening up a large can of worms, Iâm rather ok with a possible AG investigation.
Indeed. Any argument used to cast doubt on the legitimacy of Doug Jonesâ victory could also be used to cast doubt on Trumpâs. Republicans are good at talking out of both sides of their mouths at the same time. But this one would be so obvious as to be embarrassing. I wonder if someone will figure that out and tell the Alabama AG to shut up.
Bless the pathological, demented, ever-hating souls of the Alabama GOP.
Who was it that said about the past is never buried, it isnât even past?
Wow. If you go after that, youâll take down FOX and every other right wing media outlet.
Ahahaha, have fun with your âwhat-about-Jones,â GOPers. Saved you from electing a pedo, youâre welcome.
âAttorney General Steve Marshall announced Thursday that he is examining disinformation tacticsâŚâ
Wasnât the mastermind behind these disinformation tactics some guy from the NYT named Bernie Bernstein?

Disinformation? This right wing pig is a kiddie raper. Deal with it you Republican filth.
Anything to protect their ownâŚeven child rapists are welcome. Which is why that parasitic party deserves to be destroyed using any means necessary.
Sen. Doug Jones (D-AL), Mooreâs successful opponent, has called for a federal investigation into Project Birmingham.
First, you will never see this from a Republican.
Second, this is smart long-term strategy because it would set a precedent for federal investigations into other disinformation campaigns.
Thereâs for sure a Jacob Bernstein at NYT, son of Carl.
Third, itâs a good PR move. The investigation will (or wonât) happen regardless of what Jones says about it. Much better to be out in front and in favor. Puts him in an excellent position to deploy some plausible deniability, should things start to touch his campaign in some way.
First Trump destroys the innocence of a child by questioning Santa Claus, and now the Republicans are questioning the integrity of elections in America (at least the one a Republican lost).
My faith in goodness is shattered.
