      Tulsi Gabbard just said on @Morning_Joe this story had been debunked. She’s wrong. Unless she means by Russian state media.

      Gabbard in tweets has refuted our article relying on a supposed "debunk" by Glenn Greenwald, an article which was later posted in its entirety on a Russia Insider, a blog which follows the Kremlin line.https://twitter.com/bpopken/status/1092272627425660928 …

      Now that the Pats have beat the Rams let's address some blatant distortions around our NBC News story taking a snapshot of how candidate Gabbard has been promoted by Russian outlets since her announcement Jan 11.

          If Tulsi is going to rely on these “other journalists” seems like there should be some probing into the basis for their attackhttps://twitter.com/bpopken/status/1093267582055055362?s=21 …

          On New Knowledge, this piece by cybersecurity reporter @CraigSilverman makes it sound like it would be helpful to know more about AET and this small off-the-record meeting they had where reporter had to sign an NDA to attend where the info was first touted https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/craigsilverman/alabama-dirty-tricksters-invited-a-new-york-times-reporter …

          That...undermines the New Knowledge and strengthens Gabbard and Greenwald's points, good job.

          Ben Popken has no business working in journalism. He should be fired immediately and sent to Siberia.

          I understand that the National Enquirer says Gabbard in an alien 👽 trying to take over the world. Where your take on that. Since you seem to deal in fake news representation. Just wondering.
