On March 24th, as the Congressional investigation into Trump's ties to Putin kept acquiring momentum, we received an unexpected boon: A Twitter account going by @KevinK_2012, and claiming to be from Westerly, Rhode Island, left its geotagging on - thus locating the origin of its tweets in Saratov, Russia.

Could it be the opposite? Could the Russians purposely have left the geo tag on so that people think they "figured out" that it's a Russian propaganda account even though they WANTED to make you think they were oblivious that they left it on?
Then those who read the pro-conservative tweets will think those ideas are pro-Russian propaganda and thus make Americans disregard those conservative thoughts and push them in the opposite direction.

The problem with that website is that it's written anonymously. Who knows what their agenda is?
One also has to look critically at the fact that the twitter poster left his geotagging on, since that seems like a rookie mistake. Maybe did it on purpose?
Eta: add second paragraph.

Really funny that a known CTR shill would be on here shilling for prop or not, a site that believes Ron Paul is a Russian operative.

From Prop or Not

Russian state and intelligence services would love to see Trey Gowdy replace James Comey as FBI Director, presumably because he would not effectively investigate Trump's collusion with Russia. It also indicates that Gowdy may himself by compromised by Russian intelligence, whether through cooption or blackmail, and should immediately recuse himself from all related investigations and submit to counterintelligence investigation.
