    It’s worth noting that Russian conspiracy theory disinformation is even older than Communism.

    This piece of Russian intelligence propaganda is what radicalized Hitler and turned his soft bigotry of Jews into his fanatical hatred, according to the WWII book “The Last 100 Days”. Adolf Hitler totally fell for this and killed millions of people because of it.

      So our government has been compromised by the Kremlin. Not the big bad cold war Kremlin that controlled a Warsaw Pact empire of 377 million, but the tin pot 2025 Kremlin whose oppressed population has shrunk down to 146 million. So its this declining rump state that the GOP has shamefully allowed to compromise our national security.
