I don't know how you do as much as you do, Jamie. I'm keeping fingers crossed to have boring news til after Easter. You deserve a few days off.
Meantime, that heavily redacted link is a case study in how granular government Investigations get. The number of images and other details is amazing. I had forgotten about Maria Butina!
When I noticed references to Bannon and Cambridge Analytica it triggered my memory of a fascinating Facebook video I came across when Trump was elected. I already knew about Bannon's connection with the campaign and this video shows part of that connection.
As it happens I took note at my blog of her TED talk as well as her followup via Twitter. I just checked and the links still work, including the Twitter link and replies.
[Edit] Go to You Tube and search "Steve Bannon war room" and see what comes up. Half-hour-plus links and more are posted for the last three days. Bannon's involvement with Cambridge Analytica ended some time ago, but his involvement is all anyone needs to know to connect the dots. He is also posting on X.
I’m curious to see how much of an impact the lack of a political organization will be on this election since both candidates are well known & most people’s minds are made up. Plus, with so much more outreach via the web what is the impact on retail / in-person politicking. I’m sure the same has been said about TV.
