OK, this is gonna be a thread full of facts, inference, and some mysteries that need more hands/eyes. See @RealOGAnonymous for tips on where to find the back room action.
This is gonna take a bit, you have time to refresh your drink, maybe score on the #stonks market, etc. But this is gonna be about Florida's Atlantic coast.
There is so much activity re: the Trump admin that there's a honkin' @MaltegoHQ graph, who did what with who, when, and where. Florida is a nexus.
There are a couple of instances where we dug deeper than anything that's in the news. This kinda started when we noticed the destruction of the Power 10 botnet, and it's just progressed from there.

Jason Sullivan got pulled into the Mueller grand jury over his involvement with Roger Stone. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-mueller/mueller-issues-grand-jury-subpoenas-to-trump-advisers-social-media-consultant-idUSKCN1IH2OB
You can see some interesting stuff about Sullivan in @jimstewartson's efforts to map Qanon operators. https://medium.com/@registrarproject17/qanon-is-an-attack-on-democracy-and-must-be-eliminated-e4b178d182eb
But here's what we know about Sullivan, Stone, Power10, etc. It's maybe 5% of what's in this beast:
Here's the bit that matters - all about who actually developed the Power 10 botnet, and who was using it.
Sullivan got paid to work on Power 10. Kinda looks like he screwed up at one point, and Stone associate Alex J. Vidal took over from there.
Now if a proper reporter with a real news outlet wanted it, there is a step by step analysis of all of this stuff, that we've been shopping since June 22nd of 2020. There's a trail of domain reg stuff in @RiskIQ, a bit of Google-fu, and some good old record keeping involved.
So we have a trail here. The puzzling parts are what Canadian Andy Dion was actually doing in all this.
What I meant to say is "What was Canadian Andy Dion doing, right before he went to Datablocks, who then scored a $100k fine for malware infested advertising?" https://www.itworldcanada.com/article/crtc-lays-down-first-ever-fines-for-malware-infected-ads/407411
The only real inference in all this is Vidal's involvement in running Power10. We think this because it and his personal domain moved to Sectigo and got renewed in lock step.
Oh, and another thing that just turned up today when reviewing this stuff.
There's a lot more in this, but it gets kinda nerdy. Reporters can contact me, if The Internet sent you, @RealOGAnonymous can direct you to the place where all files are available :-)
Lemme save you some time - there is a little economic development shop in Georgia that shares a name with Power 10, Tenth Power, whatever you want to call it. They are completely and utterly innocent in all of this.
OK, on to the users of the Power 10 app. Here's a list of the accounts that we noted as using it right before it was destroyed in the fall of 2019. https://gist.github.com/NetwarSystem/525cfe87bc0ab5fd234ea4418e987d96
And here are the domains those accounts were pushing:
If you work through the account names and their domains, there are hopeful small fish, and then a big cluster of pro-Trump things, all of which look to be interconnected. And Chanel Rion from OANN is in the mix.
The overlap in hosting might reveal some business arrangements that aren't widely known.
It's interesting to select Ann Vandersteel, Bill Mitchell, and Jason Sullivan, then add the neighboring nodes.
This is just the stuff that's visible from the outside, if you know a little bit about how to dig into social media and infrastructure. There's a lot more related to this that's been sitting around, maybe some reporter will bite now :-)
And what about this Xive thing? I wish someone who knew Bitcoin and Kazakhstan would look at this stuff.
Operation Swarm? But the site quickly ends up in the hands of a Bitcoin mining hosting operation in Kazakhstan?
I went at that thing with RiskIQ and Farsight, never made any sense to me. But Xive used Google Apps at the time, so if the feds did catch it, warrants were served, etc.
OK, that's enough of that nonsense. Let's talk about Fraud Guarantee next.
Fraud Guarantee was a scam. Rudy Giuliani was involved. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2020/09/rudy-guiliani-lev-parnas-fraud-guarantee/
Also in trouble: David Corriea, Igor Fruman, and Lev Parnas. If you poke at their stuff long enough, Cassie Bronkie falls out as doing some sort of admin role for Parnas.
The domain is interesting, but I poked around for a long time in her career, looking for other connections. She's the person you hire to run a fancy charter yacht:
The other names I know to connect to yachts in Florida are Robert Mercer, who owns the 203' Sea Owl, and this hag named Lia Spinelli.
The reason I think there might be a connection there is because Spinelli was dating Doug Stewart, and where there's a right wing crime wave, he'll always been found at the center of it.
Recall back at the start, we're kinda celebrating the indictment of Douglass Mackey aka Ricky Vaughn. If the feds have him they are going to get EVERYTHING about the people involved in 2016 and things that happened after that.
The only other Florida stuff we have is related to Josh Moon. A reporter took an interest in that, but it's complex, since it looks like 8kun is again under his care. We'll let that go till the story breaks, then I guess we'll do something like this again.
