Exactly who is International Research Agency? A young woman who says she was hired by a Russian company to dissemble and to promote certain political views online has come out of the shadows to shine a light on her purported former employer and the practice, known as "trolling."

Savchuk, who initially sought to keep her identity secret, is the latest Russian to claim experience in what Moscow's critics say is a coordinated effort to mislead and shape online debate on pet issues.
Dig a little bit deeper. SC Robert Mueller has opened up a huge can of worms.
And all those worms are pointing to Clowns In America and the Obama Aministration failures to contain Russian meddling.

Mueller has opened up a huge can of worms .....And all those worms are pointing to the Obama Amin’s failures to contain Russian meddling.
OTOH, the contrary Obama admin may have had a hand in the process.
POINTS TO PONDER
<><> how did the 13 Ruskis get into the US?
<><> under whose auspices?
<><> under Obama’s sap-happy refugee-loving immigration policies?
<><> does ICE have any records?
<><> were any of the tax-funded refugee resettlement programs involved?
CONTACT CONGRESS: Capitol Switchboard 1-866-220-0044
<><>Who sponsored the Ruskis? Somebody at the DNC? In Congress? Hillary’s campaign?
The extent to which these Russians tried to influence public opinion using social media became widely known after a June 2014 BuzzFeed article greatly expanded on government documents published by hackers earlier that year.[3] The IRA gained worldwide media attention by June 2015, when one of its offices was reported as having data from fake accounts used for biased Internet trolling. Subsequently, there were news reports of individuals receiving monetary compensation for performing these tasks.[1]

Excerpt:
According to the documents, which are attached to several hundred emails sent to the project's leader, Igor Osadchy, the effort was launched in April and is led by a firm called the Internet Research Agency. It's based in a Saint Petersburg suburb, and the documents say it employs hundreds of people across Russia who promote Putin in comments on Russian blogs.
Osadchy told BuzzFeed he had never worked for the Internet Research Agency and that the extensive documents — including apparent budgeting for his $35,000 salary — were an "unsuccessful provocation." He declined to comment on the content of the leaks. The Kremlin declined to comment. The Internet Research Agency has not commented on the leak.
Definitively proving the authenticity of the documents and their authors' ties to the Kremlin is, by the nature of the subject, not easy. The project's cost, scale, and awkward implementation have led many observers in Russia to doubt, however, that it could have come about in any other way.
"What, you think crazy Russians all learned English en masse and went off to comment on articles?" said Leonid Bershidsky, a media executive and Bloomberg View columnist. "If it looks like Kremlin shit, smells like Kremlin shit, and tastes like Kremlin shit too — then it's Kremlin shit."
Sorry, Mueller isn’t going to touch the kenyan and the media won’t either. With the midterms approaching the beltway GOP will get quiet as mice.
This is going to end up bad for Israel. This leads eventually to questioning the Hasabara ops. The Dems do it once again
If I understand correctly, the strategy in part is for us to raise our voices (organically) and get this information out and repeat and repeat. Our voices have to be heard entering the mid-terms.
But he did nothing about it.....
Which does lead to conclusions that this hate-America bozo had a hand in it.
“With the midterms approaching the beltway GOP will get quiet as mice.”
Best thing Mueller can do (for Mueller) is exonerate Trump now. They caught the Russians so they can close the case and announce that Flynn and Manafort had no connection to this so case is being dropped.
It will drive the rats crazy, but also will destroy the Republicans because unless Trump moves on something, Hillary, Brennan, Comey, Obama and the rest of Obama’s intelligence community gets off scot free. And that will piss off Republicans who want them in jail.
“...then why would anyone think it would not happen again?”
Why would anyone think it would not continue on, unbroken and unpunished, even as it has been and still is at this very moment? Stzrok, Page, et al, still have their cushy jobs, pulling down fat paychecks!
Will they ask her what is Russia trying to do about our 2nd Ammendment?
