The Houston Chronicle reported today that the Texas GOP plans to purchase several domains resembling democratic candidates and run active disinformation campaigns against them using fake campaign sites[0]. Might’ve had something to do with it.
Another news story today is the lawsuit against the "Devin Nunes' Cow/Mother" Twitter accounts run by anonymous DNC personnel. In each of these incidents the "disinformation" label is used by partisan officials and obsessively repeated by the media (because the creator's identity is not placed in large font at the top), but anyone who looks at it themselves can clearly see that such is satire and opposition material.
This one is particularly great. Made by an enterprising private individual. https://joebiden.info/
When was it confirmed that those twitter accounts were run by the DNC and not just ordinary people? Did the owners break anonymity to the press to prove ownership even though a lawsuit is trying to reveal their identity? That's wild.
"Devin Nunes' Cow" is obviously a satire account. As the judge ruled, a cow clearly can not tweet so nobody reasonably can believe that is actually his cow.
"ZweinerforTexas.com", "ZweinerforTx.com" are not obviously satire, they look like normal campaign urls and are clearly made to deceive.
