"I'm wondering if Trump made good on his 2017 promise to form what he called an 'impenetrable cybersecurity unit' with Putin and allowed the massive Russian cyberattacks on the US government to happen." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/bill-barr-and-45091429
"US national security was already in tatters before the 2020 Russian cyberattacks. As @AndreaChalupa notes, the installation of Trump in 2016 was a marriage between the Russian mafia in the East and the Russian mafia in the West." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/bill-barr-and-45091429
"Russia may have been assisted in the attacks by people in the US govt. The reason I suggest this -- and it's only speculation now -- is because it happened before. One notable example is Russia's infiltration of the US Treasury in 2015." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/bill-barr-and-45091429
"When Mnuchin was installed in the Treasury, it was so he could continue corruption for the benefit of Russian oligarchs and other corrupt actors. Mnuchin, like Wilbur Ross, was recommended for his position by Trump mentor Carl Icahn." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/bill-barr-and-45091429
"The Treasury Department and the Department of Commerce were compromised long before the Russian attacks due to the choice of people who lead them -- seasoned accomplices of transnational organized crime." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/bill-barr-and-45091429
"Information about the Russian hacks was leaked to the press by anonymous officials; the Trump admin didn't initially release the news. This makes me wonder if they would have pinned them on another actor -- like Iran -- without the leak." -- @gaslitnation https://www.patreon.com/posts/bill-barr-and-45091429
