Foreign election interference.
Twitter recently turned on a feature showing where accounts originated from. Suddenly a whole lot of accounts pretending to be MAGA or American were suddenly outed as foreign influence operations.
But what was more relevant outside the social media echo chamber was the foreign status of organizational accounts. The top story is that CAIR Action’s account appears to have been connected via Turkey’s app store.
This is significant because CAIR Action is the 501(c)(4) arm of the Islamist group. What that means in English is that it gets involved in elections, advocates and endorses candidates.
CAIR is a Muslim Brotherhood front group which has supported Islamic terrorism so it’s innately foreign, but the Turkish location for its Twitter account suggests foreign links and raises questions about foreign election interference.
