The Russian Troll Factory is Planning to Flash Mob the White House on Donald Trump’s Birthday
Posted on May 30, 2018 by Dean Sterling Jones
— The event will mark the launch of the factory’s new grassroots anti-US media campaign
It’s been a busy few months for the Internet Research Agency (IRA), better known as the Russian troll factory.
In February, the Justice Department issued an indictment to prosecute 13 IRA “kremlebots” for allegedly meddling in the 2016 US election. Since then, the company has been banned from several US social media websites, and details of its operations have been exposed by the media.
But now the IRA is fighting back with the launch of its “Wake up, America!” campaign, which aims to challenge “the hegemony of the US authorities” by “promoting crucial information and problems, which are hushed up by the conventional American media controlled by the establishment and oligarchy of the United States.”
To mark the launch of the campaign, the IRA is organising a flash mob event to take place outside the White House on June 14, Donald Trump’s 72nd birthday. The plans were announced via USAReally.com, a pro-Kremlin propaganda website that has been traced back to the IRA by open-source researcher Lawrence Alexander.
