It would be nice if we had a mainstream media that would report things like this, instead of burying them. Wonder how they sleep at night.

So I checked the MN Star tribune to see if they had any late breaking news about this story, which has been out for a couple of days.

Sure enough, look at the headline I found:

Mail-in voting, police protests create fertile ground for disinformation in Minnesota

And upon reading it, I found quotes from Klobuchar, Sen. Tina Smith (D), Minnesota Secretary of State Steve Simon and a couple of professor, who all warned about “disinformation”.

And the article quoted from a report from “U. S. intelligence analysts”:

A year later (2017), U.S. intelligence analysts released a report saying the Russian government had sought to interfere in the 2016 presidential election using social media. Subsequent law enforcement and media investigations uncovered a sham organization called “Blacktivist” — a troll operation run from St. Petersburg, Russia, led by a Kremlin-linked group known as the Internet Research Agency (IRA).

Nope, not a word about any illegalities exposed by Project Veritas.

Not even in their own city.
