As the conservative Tory government of the United Kingdom appears to be collapsing shortly before President Donald Trump’s first visit to Britain, a whistleblower at the center of investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign is sounding the alarms that the same tactics were used by President Vladimir Putin to sow political instability on both sides of the Atlantic.

On Monday, UK foreign minister Boris Johnson joined Brexit Secretary David Davis in resigning from the cabinet of Conservative Prime Minister Theresa May.

Whistleblower Christopher Wylie, who worked for SCL, the England-based parent company of Cambridge Analytica, reminded of the impropriety that caused him to come forward.

Wylie has been seeking to draw the connections between the Brexit campaign and Russian meddling. Wylie has also testified in all four U.S. federal investigations into Facebook.

“The company learned that there were segments of the population that responded to messages like ‘drain the swamp’ or images of border walls or indeed paranoia about the ‘deep state’ that weren’t necessarily reflected in mainstream polling or mainstream political discourse that Steve Bannon was interested in to help build his movement,” Wylie told the Senate Judiciary Committee in May.

1. Pooty Poot ain't done yet

The #HelsinkiStinky is the very next phase. And the republicans are DAMNED & determined to enable it, by dispatching their deceitful Draft-Dodger-in-Chief to Helsinki in maximally occulted SECRET to double-down on the colossal FAIL of the republican's shameful #ShanghaiSurrender.

What will be the next diabolical ploy to weaken America further? republicans are helping out, or busy counting up their special fatcat tax breaks, and will not lift a finger to defend the USA.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's behind the "groping" allegations against Justin Trudeau, too. That sounds awfully familiar...
