Can you believe that? Those Russians meddling in another sovereign nation's political process.

So glad the USofA has never done anything like that!

Exactly. It's faux outrage, and a severe case of the pot calling the kettle black.

Im sure some triggered soul will be along shortly to note how racist that comment is.

The reality is the CIA, among other agencies, has interfered with, and manipulated countless regimes throughout the world.

I'm not saying we shouldn't do it, if it is in our best national interests, but lets not pretend our hands, and conscience are clean when it comes to that sort of thing.

What really got me during the lead up to the election was all the hooplah about Trumps coziness and open diplomacy towards the Russians.

What part about positive engagement and diplomacy with one of the worlds other nuclear armed super powers do these brain donor Dumbocrats not comprehend as being a good thing?

What's the excuse going to be when the Donald absolutely romps it in next year?

The Russian propaganda was seen by 126 million Facebook users and was not generated by U.S. citizens, while the posts you are criticizing are protected under the First Amendment and part of the Democratic process.

And were also NOT generated by US citizens

So, there’s that

And we STILL hear the lies today “he’s racist he’s anti muslim he’s anti immigrant” etc

ALL lies spread by non-US disinfo trolls

Putin invited Bill to his house. That's no plane ride with Epstein, but it's pretty chummy.

Everybody in the world is meddling in our elections. Individuals, corporations, governments, special interest groups, anybody who publishes their political opinion for others to consume is meddling in the election.

The only meddling that matters is vote count tampering or vote changing. Then we have a problem.

Exactly

Russians ‘on facebook’ Spreading propaganda is NOT interfering in an election

Dead people voting or illegal immigrants voting or multiple votes IS. But the left is ok with EVERY instance of that

So that's why you voted for Trump? Good move!

Maybe most Russians are smarter then Liberals eh?

Hillary would have sold the United States to Putin for cash. That's a given

A lie to advance an agenda is a lie to advance an agenda. Why is it different if it's a Russian lie than if its a CNN lie?

If you want to say it's different because Russia is an enemy, I'll buy that, but as far as I'm concerned the leftists and socialists are my enemy as well.

I have no great love of Russia. I think they would do anything they can to destabilize the US, but it only works if we let it.

When the MSM hits the public with a never ceasing barrage of divisive political rhetoric it has the same destabilizing effect, does it not?

I don't have a problem with pundents expressing their opinions either, as I'm a firm beleiver in free speech, but there should be a much clearer seperation betweem news amd opinion.

a reply to: Mach2

I agree 100%

In fact, I think the msm hitting the public with a never ceasing barrage of divisive rhetoric and lies is much much worse than some Russians spreading memes on facebook.

Leftists and socialists are everybody’s enemy.

Plus, when i said “non US disinfo trolls” I meant average citizens of all other countries who were actively spreading false information about Trump at a MUCH higher rate than ‘the Russians’ were.

The lies about Trump influenced faaaar more to vote hilary than ‘the russians’ Influenced to vote Trump.

If cNn hadn’t lied and said he was racist/anti mexican/anti immigrant etc then the citizens of other countries wouldn’t have been spreading FAR MORE false propaganda than the small group of Russians were.

Which would have resulted in a much much higher vote for President Trump.

Next year I believe that we’re gonna see the biggest-margin win in United States history. The dEms and their hateful followers have destroyed any chance they had of even getting third place.

And that’s regardless of any propaganda that’s about to hit social media over the next year.

a reply to: Breakthestreak

I beleive a lot of ppl have just tuned it out.

I don't know about the largest margin in history, but barring a total collapse in the economy, it's a done deal for Trump.

The dim candidates, except for Biden, are so far out there that anyone with even the slightest moderate tendencies don't take them seriously, and Biden doesn't inspire anybody either.

Couldn't have put this little info out before the total destruction of Mule boy yesterday....nah...keep beating that dead horse...over and over and over again


Can we please start drug testing these elected officials!

Or term limits as a minimum requirement

Russia's economy is the size of Italy. They had no impact on the election. Almost 50% of the country was never going to vote for her the day she announced running period. She was going to lose from day one.

I firmly believe the Russian Bots convinced hundreds of thousands of voters to vote for Hillary Clinton 😎

Indeed, Twitter has bot armies in the millions, we know they
were bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton. She has no real
life following as evidenced by her "attend a speech" appearances.

Smoke and mirrors!

Interesting that this was never looked into until the wrong side lost......
funny how that works.

The Russians probably helped President Obama win a second term, because he told the Ambassador (on an open mic) that he'd do Russia some favors after he was re-elected.

Well if you bastard would've let McArthur finish the job we would be having to deal with this # now would we.

“communists in the Kremlin [who] are engaged in a monstrous conspiracy to stamp out freedom all over the world.”

but hey lets sell them uranium brah.

I would venture to say that not one single Trump voter was swayed, in any way, by Russia, MSNBC or the Clinton Clown Network.

They swayed me by adding to my determination to get out and vote for Donald Trump, even if I was struck by lightning and run over by a truck on the way to the polling place.

Is Bob Mueller still scheduled to go to Russia and haul the "meddlers" back to the USA for trial?

so if the Russian lies were actually done by a US citizen then you would have zero bitches about it?

However, Russia engaged in a massive propaganda campaign full of disinformation to help Trump win.

Do tell. There is zero proof of it.

Many of their lies still exist in conservative circles today.

Examples?

126 million Facebook users were exposed to the propaganda disguised as regular U.S. citizens and organizations.

Examples?

Russia also arranged for Hillary Clinton's emails to be released through Wikileaks!

Zero proof of this either.

Did you not listen to Mueller during the hearing?

I tried, but it was difficult, with all of the stammering, and back-tracking, and flat refusal to answer most substantive questions.

He flat-out stated that Russia interfered in the election to help Donald Trump!

Yes, he did - and offered zero proof. He was even asked about the fact that in an ongoing lawsuit right now, the judge asked for any evidence to support the claim that the Russian Troll farm had any connection to the Russian government, and they - Mueller's team - said there isn't any. NONE.
