Former DeSantis Press Secretary Christina Pushaw came directly to the Florida Governor’s office after working in Ukraine on behalf of Volodymyr Zelenskyy. There is a clear commonality of interest in the actions of Pushaw both in Ukraine and in Florida.
Once the national DeSantis operation was fully constructed and funded, in August 2022 Pushaw left the governor’s office to assemble and coordinate the previously solicited social media influencers for the 2024 operation.
After organizing the operatives, Pushaw is now spearheading a U.S. online influence campaign.
In essence, a registered foreign agent is now working on the social media platform Twitter to construct disinformation on behalf of Ron DeSantis. Elon Musk is apparently a partner in the effort, as the details of the operation begin to surface.
Their intelligence community method is to use operatives within Twitter “community notes” to control any negative opinion of DeSantis. If anything is identified that undermines the DeSantis operation, Pushaw triggers a specific account “@NoteNeeded” which contains embed operatives who swarm to her commands and affix labels to Tweets designated as harmful to the interests of the DeSantis regime.
The DeSantis election influence operation is similar to what the U.S. State Dept (Nuland) and USAID (S Power) do in foreign countries; only in this example, Ms. Pushaw is working to influence domestic U.S. politics through the social media platform Twitter.
The various accounts all carry the same alligator emoji as an identifying characteristic. Here’s an example of the operation at work, as well as an explanation from Twitter that just doesn’t reconcile with the claims.
Twitter claims the notes they affix to the targets identified by Ms. Pushaw are not triggered by complaints. However, what exactly is Ms. Pushaw doing in the bottom example, if not complaining? A heavy dose of pretending is needed to accept the premise of the Twitter platform. MAGA does not pretend; there is no need.
The @NoteNeeded account, has gone private – restricting access as soon as the operation was identified. This seems to be a rather odd move to make, considering the argument of the entire enterprise is based around truthfulness. If the @NoteNeeded account has nothing to hide, then why take the account private permitting visibility only from the approved members.
It is obvious the Ron DeSantis ’24 operation originated on a principle of being fraudulent in purpose to the Florida voter in 2022. The DeSantis operation was assembled, financed and planned long before the reelection effort of the Florida governor. The visible indicators of the plan stretch as far back as 2020.
What we are seeing today is a billionaire funded scheme to promote Ron DeSantis, and part of that scheme involves deploying online activists, what they call “influencers”, as conscripts for the effort. Ms. Pushaw, a registered foreign agent, is the leading organizer of this assembly. The goal is to elevate the impression of Ron DeSantis and use weaponized platform rules to attack any voice that might rise in opposition to their agenda.
Obviously, as CTH represents the key account that predicted, publicized and then deconstructed the scheme of the Sea Island billionaire class on behalf of DeSantis, our Twitter account is one of the primary targets for the Pushaw operation. I will admit to laughing at them hysterically, because quite frankly they are joyless idiots mired in a profound sense of self-importance, perpetual anger and blame-casting. The entire DeSantis tribe trigger very easily.
All of that said, in this era where Big Government and Big Tech have merged to control information, block freedom of expression and thought, the intention of the DeSantis operation –which is based entirely on control– speaks rather loudly to what the DeSantis policy handlers would do if he were ever to reach federal office.
DeSantis has already grown the size and power of state government more than any FL governor before him. DeSantis has created all the tools for a weaponized state government as soon as Democrats take power. While ignoring the essential economic needs of the state in order to create the optical legislation for a 2024 presidential run around anti-wokeism, the people behind DeSantis will walk away from Florida having created the state authoritarian boot that will sit upon our neck.
In a similar way that Republican George W. Bush expanded government with the Patriot Act, ultimately creating weapons like the Dept of Homeland Security, the TSA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, so too has DeSantis created an internal system of State agencies that will be weaponized as soon as he retires and flees the state he compromised. Be forewarned.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is to the presidency of Ukraine as Ron DeSantis would seek to become by attaining the presidency of USA. Both men are puppets for people really in charge behind them.
It’s time for more fighting over this Trump vs. DeSantis situation. Another incendiary story to instigate more fighting.
Ouch!
SunDunce needs to stick to stocking grocery shelves. He is wrong many more time that he is right.
Did you expect Trump to be good buddies with that back stabber whose only job is to eliminate Trump?
I know the left and their media supporters are excited. They have Trump and DeSantis supporters fighting against each other while the left continues their march to destroy our nation. Every day the media publishes another hit piece meant to widen the divide between conservatives who support one or the other. Such deflects from the Biden administration’s atrocity of the day. Conservatives fall for it every single time.
This is funny, considering how many Trump chumps are in jail for FAILING to register as foreign agents. And yeah, a lot of good people are in jail due to the unjust persecution of patriots working for Trump. But Paul Manafort, Michael Cohen, Rick Gates, etc. were bad, bad people.
There would be none of this if DeSantis would have simply supported Trump and finished his term as Governor. But that wasn’t his instructions.
No I don’t expect Trump to be good buddies with him. But hopefully there is some civility within the Republican party.
I remember Reagan’s 11th commandment. I realize we are far past that era.
And certainly on Free Republic, there have evolved these ongoing battles of Trump vs. DeSantis, who is more conservative, who is more electable, who has adhered best to conservative values in their political careers, who can expand the Republican voting base, who has violated standards of decorum and betrayed loyalties to others, and other issues.
When I was on Twitter before being banned and before Christina was working for DeSantis we used to communicate quite a bit and I think she’s solid and is working inner boss’ best interests. Lots of things to go after him for but she was at the forefront of exposing Rebekah Jones as a liar even when it meant me getting banned from Twitter working with her and a few others to gather information on a now-proven pathological liar.
Stop with the civility bull s**t. This is fight for the soul of this country which is being destroyed daily. DeSantis is no friend of Trump or his supporters. Learn it.
I’m pretty sure Trump cheating on all 3 of his wives makes him a backstabber. Just saying.
Then again, there are many solid DeSantis supporters, here on Free Republic. This site is not a Trump only site.
I wish we could do polls here, even though many Freepers say polls are worthless. It would be interesting to know how many support Trump, how many DeSantis, how many go for other candidates.
Sundance does a great job taking down DeSantis. Really the only people I see on this forum supporting DeSantis are the pro-war neocon types. DeSantis has displayed fascist tendencies and is NOT pro freedom at all.
This guy gets paid to post. He’s on the payroll. Trump is buying influencers to keep the faithful on board.
Are you ready to start talking about Trump’s porn stars, his hiring choices, the support of LGBTQ, his lack of loyalty, his support for North Korea, etc.?
This is fight for the soul of this country which is being destroyed daily.
The fight Trump lost in 2020. He couldn’t get re-elected while the sitting president. He has zero chance now.
Trump doesn’t need influencers to keep his supporters onboard, we aren’t going anywhere.
You lie. Name one with the evidence of payment from any President Trump check. Ya know God hates those that lie and make false accusations.
Sure RENO…. When was your latest porn show?
