research and writing focuses on terrorism, counterterrorism, social
media influence and Russian disinformation. Clint’s tracking
of terrorist foreign fighters allowed him to predict the rise of

model the rise of Russian influence operations via social media
leading up to the U.S. Presidential election of

different Senate committees in 2017 and 2018 regarding
Russia’s information warfare campaign against the U.S. and the
West.
