We Should Look into Britain First

   These days, knowing the Russians wage a propaganda war of providing false and inflammatory information, we should look to see if they were involved when we see false and inflammatory memes, videos and such.
   We know the Russians do this kind of thing. And, it is concern to us -- and should be a concern to us. So, we should look into it when there's chance the Russians are involved.
  I think of the videos President Trump retweeted. He got them from Britain First. Britain First, born in 2011, is a British political organization. Now, I don't follow Twitter to know, but how is it that President Trump would have even been aware of Britain First tweets, in the first place? Why would he even be running across them?
   Is it okay to wonder if Britain First has any ties to Russia? Knowing Russia has a propaganda machine, and seeing how pervasive it is, and knowing how it has plugged into influencing politics in so many nations, I think it not wrong. We should be looking to learn whether the Russians are influencing Britain First, and, by extension, President Trump.
