Louise Mensch-- Cesar Sayoc: The Trump Russia link.

https://patribotics.blog/2018/10/27/cesar-sayoc-trump-russia-link/

"Cesar Sayoc, the suspect in the recent bombing campaign, now owns the most famous white van since that of OJ Simpson. Covered in pro-Trump memes and conspiracy theories, the van instantly led to Sayoc having his twitter feeds and the images on his van deeply analyzed for their hateful content. But is there anything more that his social media can tell us, and how, if at all, does it feed in to Mueller’s investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election?"

Doubt it. If he was linked he'd have made the devices properly. He has all the hallmarks of a Roid nut

#CesarSayoc posts on Russia included praising Trump for Helsinki and killing gay activists.

'Awesome ban Russia!' he tweeted. "Awesome Russia, make them disappear, never to be seen again" https://patribotics.blog/2018/10/27/cesar-sayoc-trump-russia-link/

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2018/10/27/mail-bomb-suspect-made-numerous-references-facebook-russian-associates-echoed-pro-kremlin-views/?utm_term=.d6d76aee836a

A Facebook account apparently belonging to the man charged with sending pipe bombs to prominent Democrats this week included references to Russian associates and propaganda links that echo Kremlin views on the Syrian civil war, alongside ramblings about soccer, women and U.S. politics.

Cesar Sayoc, 56, a vocal supporter of President Trump who was arrested in Florida on Friday and charged with multiple federal crimes, apparently spoke of “my Russian brothers” on several occasions on a Facebook page in 2015. The meaning of the references to Russians is not clear, nor is it clear how Sayoc came to view and share propaganda sympathetic to Russian actions in Syria.

SNIP

On at least five occasions in 2015 — three times in April, once in June and once in October — the Facebook account included posts referring to “my Russian Brothers” and picturing a smiling Sayoc wearing a suit and posing alongside what appear to be friends. The posts list specific places, nicknames of people and communities, such as Brooklyn’s Brighton Beach, with large Russian populations.

These references to Russian associates on Facebook are repetitive, rambling and hard to understand. Before his arrest Friday, Sayoc lived in an area of suburban Miami with a large Russian community, meaning the Russians described on the Facebook page may have been simply friends of that nationality. Elsewhere on Facebook Sayoc speaks of “my Italian Brothers.”

She also said some of Sayoc's accounts indicate that he was associating with Florida's "Little Moscow."

Although I did read where he lived somewhere near where Twitler has a condo unit
