hmmmm....when was thunderlips last post???

On Friday, those of us who share factual information about the situation on the ground in Ukraine noticed an eerie silence had befallen Twitter: Why weren't we being harassed by the Kremlin's troll army? The insults from anonymous paid bots was as constant as Putin's public appearances. So when both disappeared at around the same time we wondered whether the silence of the troll factories was another indication of a slow-motion coup in progress.

I'm glad our media always presents irrefutable proof in their reporting & Twitter & Facebook are the only source of facts.
How shallow are members & readers of T & F?

Pretty Shallow.

I mean, the USG - or other governments - never has paid a troll army.

Rumor is Putin had a daughter, is taking time off. He also just fired their long-term US PR Firm a few days ago. Obviously they were doing a shitty job.

EDIT: Confirmed. Putin back from his daughter's birth:

No Secret Coup, Alien Abduction, etc.
