    Michael Tracey Retweeted Asha Rangappa

    This is so important. The concept of an "asset" has been exploited and weaponized by former security state operatives like Asha (who now populate the media) to malign anyone with non-mainstream viewshttps://twitter.com/AshaRangappa_/status/1185357562465656832 …

    Michael Tracey added,

    Asha RangappaVerified account @AshaRangappa_
    This is so important. Russian “assets” are not formal relationships in the USIC sense of the word. If you are parroting Russian talking points and furthering their interests, you’re a source who is too dumb to know you’re being played to ask for money. https://twitter.com/alexzfinley/status/1185330643988824064 …

        Also, by this definition, Navalny is an American asset. And so are the Hong Kong protesters.

        And of course, any major dissenter: Chomsky Snowden Manning All fall under “Russian asset” by this definition. Every whistleblower is automatically an asset.

        She's a know nothing. Barely had a cup of coffee at the FBI. Probably never even learned where the bathroom was.

        The lionization of security/intel alumni by liberals has been something else Yet Dems of color, the actually base, don’t quite feel so warmly about the FBI’s inherent integrity... At some point, the enormous gulf between PoC Dems & suburb progressives will have to be addressed

        looks like US national security “assets” have been mobilised to 'parrot talking points'. Asha Rangappa uses 'asset' in both the 'USIC sense' and some supposed Russian sense; using them 'interchangeably', whichever suits her talking point. https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3AAshaRangappa_%20asset%20OR%20assets&src=typed_query …pic.twitter.com/S5HVbC2zIg

        OK, hear me out. If you were a Russian asset, like Asha, wouldn't you spend a disproportionate amount of time trying to stick that label on other people so they don't realize that it's you?

        These people created in the last 3 years an environment crazier than during the worst days of McCarthyism. Even Joseph McCarthy would be considered a "russian asset" by today's "resistance" hysteria.
