I Pit the Russian Government and their Paid Trolls

All good - figured that might’ve been the case.

Heh - to steal from that other thread…

I just think you overestimate the effectiveness of using the same tactics on Russia that they are using on us. They are effectively a dictatorship where voting results are a foregone conclusion. I think it would take a lot more espionage to undermine such a regime than it does to cause problems for a democracy. Do you think Putin would care if we leaked a document that said that in our opinion he was a megalomaniacal bully or revealed his sexual kinks (if any)?

I frankly hope our intelligence service is using their efforts on more useful and powerful ammunition.

I’ll bet when most people think of the IRA these days, it sure isn’t the Irish Republican Army.
