Is TDIP the Source of the 4 am Talking Points? CALL FOR A DIGG
In Dec, Q directed our attention to the Alabama Election Meddling Digg, starting out with Jonathon Morgan and his organization, New Knowledge (NK). Although the digg started out looking at how NK helped throw an election using social media to influence voters, once diggers started connecting the dots, it became clear that there is a much larger network of powerful (mostly anti-Trump) groups, both national and global.
Four key connections were found by Jan 2019:
-
the DNC (through groups run by Mikey Dickerson & funded by Reid Hoffman)
-
the Neo-Con/Dem coalition group Alliance for Securing Democracy (ASD), whose parent organization is the pro-NATO, anti-Russian German Marshall Fund
-
the SSCI, for whom NK prepared a (fake news) report supporting the "muh Russia" narrative on Dec 17 2018 (now forgotten because the Alabama scandal broke the NEXT DAY–no coincidence there but no MSM investigation either!!).
-
The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP), with whom NK worked in 2018 as part of their SSCI report project (looking at "muh Russia" & the 2018 elections). Founded by former SSCI staffer, Daniel Jones, who was a Feinstein aide at the SSCI. Purpose: to promote "muh Russia" narrative & undermine Trump presidency using disinformation.'''
But TDIP was still pretty hidden until recently, although Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller had been chipping away at it since last year. By Jan. 2019, he had a pretty good stash of info, including the fact that they "hired" both Fusion GPS and C Steele with monies donated by (mostly unknown) private sources; the amt was rumored to be ~$50 million (although less than 10million could be traced via tax docs). CAP 1 maps out the material in the Jan article, revealing the relationships of TDIP to a network of related orgs.

More info has since come to light on TDIP itself, mainly due to the work of Chuck Ross (Daily Caller–CAP 2) and Paul Sperry (Real Clear Investigations–CAP 3). There is much more than I can say here–there are, e.g., potential links to HRC, Obama, you name it. See twitter CAPS 2 & 3 for a teaser & the PDFs on page 2 for full articles.
