In a viral Twitter thread, attached to a clip from CNN posted by former FBI special agent Asha Rangappa, Rangappa accuses Donald Trump of employing covert propaganda against the American public.
The host asks Rangappa if that's a"quid pro quo," and with a laugh she replies 'yes'.
"If you really just want another country to investigate, they can do it quietly, you wait for the findings, and then let them take it on. What they wanted was a public announcement, that would then publicly cast doubt on Joe Biden in a way that would benefit Trump. And I think that that need for them to be very public about this investigation that they were potentially starting really adds to this idea that he was looking for a personal benefit to his own campaign," she continued.
"As I note in the clip above, one thing the texts make clear is that the administration wasn't just interested in Ukraine investigating Biden -- they were specifically interested in the *messaging* about the investigation. If what you care about is"corruption," you would be satisfied with an assurance that Ukraine was going to investigate," she continued.

FBI Warns ‘Downton Abbey’ Screenings Could Be Target For Shootings By Disgruntled RoyalistWASHINGTON—Following reports of disturbing behavior by disaffected loners at the fringes of high society, the FBI released a joint intelligence bulletin Thursday warning moviegoers that screenings of the film Downton Abbey could be a potential target for shootings by disgruntled royalists. “The individuals in question are in a state of constant anger and dissatisfaction, frustrated to be living in a world that does not honor the crown,” read the bulletin in part, outlining how the FBI had discovered the plots while monitoring pro-monarchy dark-web forums where members posted about how seeing people like themselves onscreen who believed in divine right had inspired them to restore power to the throne through violence. “We fear that the themes of largesse and elitism depicted in this film may radicalize these people. While the FBI intends to deploy a select amount of undercover police officers dressed as servants to screenings, we advise theater employees and attendees alike to keep an eye out for suspiciously fancy activity by individuals in tails or top hats. We advise extreme caution if the theater patrons encounter anyone who looks like a member of the landed gentry.” At press time, AMC and Regal Cinemas announced that security personnel would be posted at all upcoming Downton Abbey screenings to check bags for dueling pistols.
