Claudia Stauber: On the fakery of liberals and faux progressives (and their media)
PATRICE GREANVILLE
[dropcap]I[/dropcap]f you don't know or never heard about Claudia Stauber, well, you've been missing something, pardner. A Vermonter, and dedicated ecoanimal defender, Claudia is a 100% woke activist who hosts Cabin Talk, one of the most refreshing political/public affairs shows around. This is citizens' journalism as it should be: no frills, spontaneous, righteous, fierce and intelligent. And 100% honest. All of it delivered by a woman who is obviously remarkable inside and out. A former Sandernista, Claudia has not attained (yet) the visibility of a Jimmy Dore, another rare and forceful truthtalker, but she's obviously of the same political DNA, and she deserves wider recognition. This is what we need more of, and we should prize their presence in what remains of our public square.

This is what Claudia is so (rightly) pissed off about (below see an excerpt from an NPR transcript)
NPR: Russian Trolls Are Flooding Social Media With Messages Meant To Increase Tensions In U.S.
NPR's Mary Louise Kelly speaks with Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., about how Russian bots are still flooding social media, including fomenting American tension over the Florida school shootings, and what he thinks should be done about it.
MARY LOUISE KELLY, HOST:
The aftermath of a school shooting in Florida, NFL players taking a knee during the national anthem and the 2016 presidential election - these have all been targets of Russian internet trolls. Just hours after that Florida shooting last week, Russian bots got busy on social media posting pro-gun-rights messages, also posting pro-gun-control messages. It's the latest example of a phenomenon documented in special counsel Robert Mueller's indictment released on Friday of Russian trolls and bots working to deepen divisions in U.S. society. Oklahoma Republican Senator James Lankford has been talking about this since the NFL national anthem controversy last fall.
Yada Yada Yada...
