Even president 45 fell for this admittedly pathetic troll:

- soundwave106 9y agoJade Helm is mentioned as one of many stories mentioned in this testimony by Clint Watts concerning on Russia's information war: https://www.thedailybeast.com/clint-watts-testimony-russias-info-war-on-the-us-started-in-2014 https://www.thedailybeast.com/clint-watts-testimony-russias-... It does seem like there are a fair bit of analysts in United States intelligence (Clint Watts being on that side of the fence, essentially) who strongly believe that RT or Sputnik are less media sources, and are instead funnels of disinformation propaganda designed to destabilize the United States government. Whatever your personal opinion of these media sources are, in this light, Twitter's action here is hardly surprising.
