Russia had N O T H I N G to do with what happened in Charlottesville. I have seen the perpetrators with my own eyes, been inside their organizing circles, exposed them, and more. Not one trace of Russian involvement.https://twitter.com/RVAwonk/status/1028375273757188097 …

I can tell you about Wil Zachary Smith, from Nocona, TX, who ran security for Azzmador and pepper sprayed people a year ago this day. Or his friend Billy Williams. I can tell you about Wi’s cousin, Ross. Or Billy’s brother Newt “Fig” Williams, with whom he shares a tattoo.

I can tell you about the user name Joey Zyklon from the Discord. Someone whose dox I’m sitting on because he’s young and I don’t want to expose a kid who can still be saved. Not a Russian.

I can tell you about user N*ggernaut, someone else whose dox I have, including his employer details. The employer is an American university, not a Russian government.

Chris Cantwell was from New Hampshire and then crossed multiple state lines before pepper spraying me in an assault he pleaded guilty to. Not Russian.

Or how about “Athena Marie,” from the Discord. Her actual name is Kendell York.

None of these people are Russian. They weren’t financed with Russian money. They were domestic racists who pooled their resources together, drove hours together across state lines, and partook in violence. Few people know better than me how these networks intersect.

I am sure you are so important, comrade.

Being there and understanding the ins and out are not one and the same. Forgive me if I am a skeptic. I think knowing whether Russia was involved would require long term analysis, as in years.

She was also part of an activist group that infiltrated and surveilled UTR organizers in the Discord chat rooms they used for planning. They documented everything and sent it to the FBI. Later this documentation was used to prosecute Kessler and others.

So yes, she knows the ins and outs better than anyone. Rep. Tom Garrett is crying “Russia” because he palled around with Jason Kessler, organizer of Unite the Right, and is in panicky cover-his-ass mode.
-
When Emily says Russia was not involved in Unite the Right, I believe her because she knows that bunch better than any of us would want to.

The intelligence community is a mysterious entity that accomplishes nothing of value. They are completely unaccountable.
