      There's a misconception that Butina admitted she used sex to gain political access. Wrong: the plea contains no such admission. Read it (https://www.dropbox.com/s/o4pfluk5wsjsx4j/US%20v.%20Butina%20-%20Plea%20Agreement%20and%20SOF_EXECUTED%2020181208.pdf?dl=0 …). The boyfriend, Erickson, is reportedly still visiting her in prison. Such a vile smear.https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1073822453523206149 …

      Maria Butina: did not engage in "spycraft" in any meaningful sense, did not trade sex for access (a grotesque smear), has been locked in solitary confinement for months. If she wasn't Russian, this would be denounced as the blatant political show prosecution it so obviously is

      Young woman gets labeled an amoral slut because of stereotypes about her ethnic heritage, her career ambition gets cast as some kind of perverse sexual transactionalism, and the charge is led by media/prosecutors who parroted falsehoods. A feminist outrage, it would seem...?

          Maria Butina was prosecuted for being a goodwill ambassador who failed to sign the proper papers. A "spy" would've done so.

          Sexual favors for access is what the NYT does for stories; so, why not accuse her of it too?

          I've read all I can on this. What did she actually do that was illegal, and what actual laws were broken?

          It is like Mika Brzezinski's and others' homophobic slurs. As long as it is directed at Trump, it is apparently ok ... @ggreenwald has pointed to this phenomenon.

          It’s not a phenomenon when you understand that most opposition to anti- <insert oppressed group> is mostly virtue signaling as opposed to genuine care for said groups.

          Her career as a spy who according to her own emails was taking "orders" from Torshin. Such harmful Russian spy stereotypes you're combating there, you feminist hero you.

          The US govt doesn't accuse her or Torshin of working for any intelligence agency. If that was in fact the case, they certainly would have said so, don't you think? Seriously, how do you wrap your feeble brain around the fact that the US govt doesn't accuse either of spying?

          No, no, no. She's on the wrong side of the political divide. The frenzied, vag hat wearing, feminist #winemoms are #StillWithHer (forever) so anyone associated with #Trump is the devil incarnate and must burn (also forever). #MariaButina is damned by #neolibs for all eternity. 🍩
