This is always great. Liberals are now attacking Jill Stein, the Green Party candidate, because a new report says the Russian social media effort including memes pushing her candidacy.
This is Neera Tanden, the head of the Center for American Progress:
Oddly enough no one at the Green Party responded to this story. But since @DrJillStein is an avid reader of my tweets, hopefully she will respond here. Retweet if you’d like to hear her response. https://t.co/HLdCSsysG2

Plenty of people on here were duped by this. Wish they would spend a single minute on self-reflection. But alas… https://t.co/HLdCSsQ44C

It has always been obvious that Jill Stein is a useful idiot of Russia and every thinking person on the left understands this when they're being honest about it. https://t.co/0xxu7qYDkb

When she was in Moscow to meet Putin in 2015, Jill Stein criticized the US on human rights, but said nothing about human rights in Russia, where LGBT people & feminist activists are targets of human rights abuses & imprisonment, & Putin critics & journalists are often murdered. pic.twitter.com/qI8pOifv93

What’s tragic is that a real number of Bernie (and Jill Stein) supporters happily let themselves be used by Russia to undermine our democracy https://t.co/aIu0TyASct

AND among the ten Green Party supporters that still exist, they’re really angry that the Democrats are trying to blame Stein:
There's no evidence @DrJillStein colluded with Russia or took Russian money. Sitting at a table with Putin & getting mentioned on social media are proof of nothing at all.
Reality: Dems like Maddow desperately want us to believe "Jill ran against Hillary" was an act of treason.

What’s funny is that they blamed her for Hillary’s loss right after the election, and she was also the crazy lady that took millions of dollars in donations all for the sake of “challenging” the election – then funneled the money to other purposes.
Love it!
Remember these?
Jill Stein ADMITS there’s NO EVIDENCE of election tampering, says NO money will be left over!
Green Party DROPS Pennsylvania recount because lack of FUNDS – WHERE’S Jill Stein’s cash?!
