Rothschild Continues to Sell Bad Joke as Conspiracy
A Series on Misinformation, Disinformation and Subterfuge
So where did Mike Rothschild the crack “expert” on disinformation get his “research” to support his belief that a “conspiracy” around Invana Trump’s death came from?
Twitter trending topics.
Mike is REALLY selling this garbage, very similar to his early work before he started the Q Anon grift.
Let’s show the guy how a novice such as he could figure the origin of this “conspiracy” he claims is spreading using open source tools. For this I took a Hoaxy and plugged in “Ivana Epsteined” and the cluster below showed how the trend originated seeing as this happened in the last seven days.
I zoomed in on the first account to post, that being the big red bot-like one at the bottom.
Johnalogue.
A monologue is a stand-up comedy routine, so at this point we’d only need to confirm that this “conspiracy” began as a joke by looking up the account.
Comedy writer. Poop jokes. Oh my God, It’s so spicy. Not Batman. This should be very obvious to a layman that this account might be a comedy writer and not to be taken seriously over what he puts out. Here is the tweet where the joke, Mike Rothschild thinks is a far-fetched conspiracy began:
Incidentally, Trump also DID try to kill a classmate throwing him out of the NYMA window over a messed up bed, so…
Mike Rothschild, the self-proclaimed “expert” on conspiracies shows he is not able to tell a simple bad joke from an actual conspiracy despite having a full day to realize that.
Here is the diffusion off of Mike’s original tweet. Fake_Biden also told the joke with the same phrase, save he told it as a joke while Mike sells it as a conspiracy.
I decided to look at the other central nodes given in the first diffusion graph, as perhaps that would lead to the grand conspiracy weaving that Rothschild had noted. First account I pulled up was this one.
We won’t be showing the dark humor Meme he posted with Ivana on the stairway being pushed by two tiny hands emerging from a suit coat, nor the other one. The next account, also a Paul, spoke of something different that did happen to Trump’s execs.
Oddly, this same thing of a detaching helicopter blade killed a neighbor of mine, so these types of accidents, while rare, do happen.
Trump was money laundering at the time for the Russian mob, then wound up paying a record fine via the casino instead of facing personal consequences. That fine didn’t happen until 1998 due to using the same delay tactics Trump used to defeat his 1970s FBI case running out the clock over illegal housing discrimination. Trump repeated the scheme a second time getting caught and again being let off the hook with an even larger fine in 2015, stuff I covered in my thorough book on Trump.
Third account, with the dark joke stickied.
Next Mike gets one small brief victory until
the JOKE that went “viral” is instead dropped in response to his comment
The final account that had some amplification of it, had retweeted multiple “fall” jokes.
That is the origin of Mike’s “conspiracy,” a dark joke that had limited spread mocking Qanon, which Rothschild protects and promotes as his grift. In a parting worthy of Rothschild’s schtick:
A dee bit, a dee bit, that’s all Folks!
