Well, lookie here:

Here’s our buddy Ted rumormongering on the Twitter. He’s like an old mother hen, sitting fat on her nest, clucking out stories that are taller than they are wide.

Come to find out..

… the Portland Bible burnings appear to be one of the first viral Russian disinformation hits of the 2020 presidential campaign. The video was first tweeted by an account that lists two cities — Oklahoma City and Abu Dhabi — as its users’ location and has only a few dozen followers. It was soon after deleted. But before it disappeared, the tweet was picked up by a Malaysian named Ian Miles Cheong who has amassed a large Twitter following by playing a right-wing American raconteur on social media.

I dunno, the Russians probably sent it directly to Ted. He has been their tool for quite a while.

The New York Times covered it.

Thanks to Kary for the heads up.
