    Lord of the Flies with the bloody eyes

    Flies landing on presidential candidates have always been a hit online. Obama had his on his lip, and Hillary had hers on her forehead in 2016.

    Last night during the vice presidential debate with Mike Pence and Kamala Harris, the fly made famous by landing on the vice presidents white sheen of hair for at at least two minutes.

    Capitalizing on the insect was presidential candidate Joe Biden, with his campaign immediately circulating a photo of the vice president with the flyswatter and also selling a Biden 2020 official flyswatter on their campaign page!

    Some may argue that there is a metaphysical or paranormal tale to this fly. Perhaps the fly landed on a dying campaign? Or perhaps even something more nefarious was taking place.

    That more nefarious issue could be a vice president with an unknown element!

    After all, another part of the debate that got more attention than what the candidates were saying we’re close up images of Mike Pence his eyes, with one eye seemingly becoming more and more bloody throughout the debate and at some point even ripping out moisture.

    Many speculated on social media that the vice president could actually have COVID-19! The DrudgeReport played up the image putting it at the top of the page, also utilizing the fly on Pence his head in the Bidens place water above the main fold.

    Report: RUSSIAN HACKERS share personal data of almost every voter in Michigan, and a million more in Arkansas, Connecticut, North Carolina, and Florida

    This news developing in the Russian paper Kommersant…

    Data reportedly appeared on the Darkweb thanks to a user named Gorka9.. Since then it is reported that Russian Internet users have shared the personal data of nearly every voter in Michigan (7.6 million of the state’s 7.8 million voters), as well as the information of another million voters in Arkansas, Connecticut, North Carolina, and Florida..

    Even more:

    According to Kommersant, the voter data was released online for free, but the newspaper says forum members apparently used the U.S. government’s own “Rewards for Justice” program to earn money on the stolen information by reporting the election interference to the State Department. One forum member told the newspaper that he received $4,000 for sharing a hyperlink with U.S. officials to the leaked database of Connecticut voters..

    BUT

    A spokesperson for the U.S. State Department told journalist Christopher Miller that the agency has yet to pay “any rewards from the August 5 Rewards for Justice announcement.”

    Another reporter tonight is calling it a nonthingburger at this point. .Kevin Rothrock writes, “Looks like the Kommersant story is mostly a nothingburger at this point, at least from a U.S. perspective. For Russianists, however, this is interesting insofar as (1) why did Kommersant run this story? and (2) what exactly are Russian hackers doing with these open-access data?”

    What is real?
    What is true?
    What is dark.
