More Evidence of a Connection Between Russia and Cambridge Analytica
by Nancy LeTourneau
January 19, 2025
………………………….
That is all by way of background for this news:
The data firm whose work for Donald Trump’s campaign attracted the interest of Robert Mueller’s investigators recently filed paperwork showing it had helped spread negative information about Qatar, the Gulf nation targeted by the Saudis and the United Arab Emirates in a bitter propaganda battle.
The parent company of Cambridge Analytica filed documents with the U.S. Justice Department’s Foreign Agents Registration Unit disclosing $333,000 in payments by the UAE for a 2017 social media campaign linking the Qataris to terrorism.
Granted, it’s possible that Russia didn’t facilitate the UAE’s decision to contract with Cambridge Analytica. But it’s clear that the company founded by right wing billionaire Robert Mercer is the global go-to firm (see: Brexit) for spreading exactly the kind of fake news Russia promulgated in the U.S. during the 2016 campaign.

Keep in mind, REPUBLICANS let CHIP expire last year. They could have reauthorized it at any time, and could reauthorize it today. They could vote right now. They're not, because they wanted to use those 9 million kids as hostages.

The problem here isn’t Trump’s repeated ethical multiple porn-star pay off lapses alone. The problem is the probability of blackmail against a presidential team willing to pay big to cover up misbehavior. It is what Putin has known all along- and may be using now.

“We are pending a government shutdown here is what happened last time: National parks closed in 2013 and it resulted in a loss of 750,000 daily visitors. The National Park Service (NPS) estimated the shutdown cost $500 million in lost visitor spending in areas around the parks.”
I say tack this loss to the bill the people of America will be presenting to the eff’ing GOP and so-called potus, as they are led away to the paddy wagons in handcuffs and prison stripes

Luckily, some of us have banded together with other like-minded people (here on TOD, as one wonderful example!) and held on.

Washington State's newly Democratic Senate has voted to ban conversion therapy. The measure now heads to the House. https://t.co/YFkTWTeicK
— Kyle Griffin (@kylegriffin1) January 20, 2025
The Washington State Senate voted 32-16 to ban license therapists from subjecting LGBTQ-identifying youth to conversion therapy designed to change their sexual orientation and gender identity.
Six Republicans crossed over to vote with the chamber’s Democratic majority to approve the ban. The Democrats, who won the majority on Nov. 7, 2017, have long wanted to pass a bill banning conversion therapy, but were hamstrung by Republican leadership, who had refused to allow a vote on the measure in past sessions.
The measure now heads to the House of Representatives, which Democrats control 50-48. The bill’s success in the Senate will likely embolden House leadership to pass the bill and send it to the desk of Gov. Jay Inslee (D) for its signature into law later this year.
We remind you that @realDonaldTrump, not too long ago, mentioned: “our country needs a good shutdown.” And yet, Republicans want to fool the American public by casting blame on our values shared by millions.
Programming note: Because of breaking news on the government shutdown, our documentary on President Trump’s first year will air tomorrow (Saturday) night instead of tonight — thanks!
The success of this meeting will hinge entirely on whether Stephen Miller, Tom Cotton, and John Kelly are locked out of the room. https://t.co/HtHdHss1p8

The “shithole shutdown” is the perfect encapsulation of governance in the Trump era: dysfunction and chaos driven by anger and fear toward America’s changing demographics https://t.co/HlkIb3HD4E
A reminder: @SenateMajLdr Mitch McConnell made the Senate this way, because this is how he wanted the Senate to be in order to try and derail President Obama. He has to live with what he made, and Democrats are under no obligation to save him. #TrumpShutdown
For years, Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell have had only one goal: power — no matter the chaos or dysfunction they inflicted on the country. Now that they control Washington, they are completely incapable of governing.
do you have extra room on “your private jet”??? i know “someone” who could use a ride …. between the harsh cold weather and the political goingson in the US, one could at least enjoy the sunshine in KEN

#TrumpShutdown
This is not Chuck Schumer’s shutdown. This is not Mitch McConnell’s shutdown. This is Donald Trump and Stephen Miller’s shutdown. This is the result of a confused, chaotic White House.
This is just a sneak attempt to get McConnell off the hook.
McConnell is a horrid, complicit POS. He obstructed PBO every chance he got and changes the Senate rules when it suits him. He just didn’t have the numbers this time to shove another crap measure through, but he withholds anything that’s beneficial to Dems.
McConnell asks “how did we get here?” Here’s why Mitch- because you and your party don’t give a damn about DACA kids. And don’t forget your party has left CHIP kids without health coverage for months because YOU decided not to fund the program.Hypocrite.Trump shutdown is on you
Republican Congressional “leadership” - dare you to allow a vote on a bill that includes CHIP and DACA fixes. You won’t- even though you know it will easily pass- because the extremists in your party really set your party’s agenda. Truly sad.
The reason the government shutdown is that Trump and his team have an ideological commitment to allowing fewer black and brown people into the country. #TrumpShutdown #TrumpIsARacist
We're now officially in the second year of the Trump presidency – and the government just shut down.
This is an absolute testament to the chaos and lack of leadership emanating from the White House and the congressional Republicans who enable @realDonaldTrump. #TrumpShutdown

If the entire transcript hurt the Dems every Congressional GOP would be in front of a tv 🎥 reading it & POTUS would declassify. They are calling for only a 4-page cherry-picked edited memo. This is a distraction from #TrumpShutdown #ReleaseFullNunesTranscript
Democrats aren’t going to negotiate with terrorists. And anyone who holds 800,000 DREAMers & millions of children & pregnant women hostage is exactly that—a terrorist. Do your jobs, Republicans! For once. Pass DACA & fund CHIP. #TrumpShutdown
Why aren't you calling for the release of THE ENTIRE TRANSCRIPT, instead of a cherry-picked 4pg memo? And you all think you aren't looking more guilty by the minute while turning into cornered animals because you're all guilty of treason? Everyone knows if it hurt the Dems-
- Trump (who hasn't seen it), would declassify it & every Congressional GOP would be in front of a TV Camera reading it out loud. The Russian Mafia NRA story is huge, because you're ALL COMPROMISED. #BeAHero #TurnStatesEvidence #TimesUp
I’m having a great morning #trumpshutdown #lookattheshinyobject and Sharapova is out of the Australian Open. By the way did #Trumpshutdown leave D.C. before the republican house and senate #trumpshutdown? And can we leave him there# trumpshutdown.
Throughout the past year (actually way before, but especially this past year), the GOP has *attempted* to govern via exclusion, deceit, racism, sexism, xenophobia, bigotry, propaganda, and blackmail… then try to blame Democrats for the ineptness of their leaders and their failures in legislating.
They spent months and months focused on repealing the ACA and then their Tax “Cut” bill. They’ve spent months ignoring the expiration of CHIPs but think adding it to the CR would force Dems to give in. When that didn’t work, they accuse Dems of caring more about “illegal” immigrants than they do about children and our military.
This, along with the continued revelations from the Russian probe, will help turn the tide in the 2018 elections… provided we stay *woke* and focused.

very sorry to learn that you are part of the dedicated & vital federal employees who were immediately impacted by the trumpshutdown. please know that many are thinking of you. ps, watch those trump-supporting co-workers who may not want to admit that they played themselves
Last night Democrats were all willing to do a VERY short term CR (1-3) days with no additional demands or conditions - just to keep the United States government and the negotiations open. We tried to do that with a Unanimous Consent Request and it was blocked.
CHIP and DADC and immigration are the only things that I’m worried about, I can afford to miss a few paychecks, but some of my coworkers and other federal employees are going to be hurting. But who you vote for matters, voting has consequences. This isn’t the first time I’ve been furloughed and it probably won’t be the last. All the federal employees that voted for this fuckery, I’m going to see how long they can hold the line.
Democrats are totally responsible for the shutdown. Sara Sanders who is a morally upstanding American (maybe with a Russian flag - who knows) … said so
She knows President Hillary Clinton and the Democrat majority led Senate and Congress caused this.
