I hope the October surprise is that they're all imprisoned.
If declassified documents equate to a right wing conspiracy, then nothing is a right wing conspiracy.

She should be more careful with her chosen equivalences or get better advisors who are. It'll be better for us if she keeps speaking impulsively, however.

Sounds very Russian, this is the GOP Intelligence report on Russia and the election. If the shoe fits??

Do they really want to go there....it will just put a spotlight on the Senate Intelligence report

"RUSSIA – We assess that Russia is using a range of measures to primarily denigrate former Vice President Biden and what it sees as an anti-Russia “establishment.” This is consistent with Moscow’s public criticism of him when he was Vice President for his role in the Obama Administration’s policies on Ukraine and its support for the anti-Putin opposition inside Russia. For example, pro-Russia Ukrainian parliamentarian Andriy Derkach is spreading claims about corruption – including through publicizing leaked phone calls – to undermine former Vice President Biden’s candidacy and the Democratic Party. Some Kremlin-linked actors are also seeking to boost President Trump’s candidacy on social media and Russian television."

There are none so blind as those who refuse to see. It's no secret the main stream media will avoid reporting this. This will allow all the folks who don't want to acknowledge this to slam whatever source is reporting it by saying it is a right wing conspiracy.

Anyone quoting the Mueller report to perpetuate the Russia hoax hasn't been doing their homework or are intellectually dishonest. According to the FBI whistleblower Barrett, all the lawyers on the special counsel were actively working to frame Trump and directing the agents activities despite many agents telling them there was nothing to the claims of Russian collusion. At least between Trump and the Russians. With the DNC and Hillary it's a different story and there's real evidence of collusion on their part.

If this could happen to a duly elected Republican president, it could happen to a Democrat one sometime in the future. You would think all this rot and corruption would be of concern to all American citizens.

Politicians asking for a probe does not equal "IS the subject of a federal criminal investigation".

The number and style of lies and misleading statements made by the right wing social media pumpers is an indictment of their honesty and character imo.

I really like when the Left invalidates itself, democratically, morally, and logically, by labelling real people as robots.

What Left wing populism is spread online by anyone connected to a foreign nation?

Any?

Is there no foreign actor on the Left that politically posts on the WWW?

You are weakly attempting to imply that Right Wing voters lost their voting agency due to anything that was posted in favor of Right Wing populism by anyone with a different passport.

In reality, if we have voting agency then we are both permitted to read anything and have the ability to judge it and vote.

If "interference" is a thing, then exposure to unnaproved of information sources can invalidate your Right to vote.

Otherwise, free information is a non-issue. Especially to the level of "interference".

And interference with what? Far Left propaganda put out by large corporations that often have foreign ties, but with offices in the US?

Which is it? Do we have free agency to include voter agency, or does all information need to be vetted and approved lest it corrupt the free agency of voters?

Show me the supreme court ruling as to how free information corrupts voter agency and election validity.

Anything less and you have no argument.

Though, before you get there you are going to have a lot of trouble explaining all of the Left Wing propaganda published by both individuals without blue passports as well as by foreign governments. Because, you know, communist governments never published anything in support of communism on the WWW.

Takeaway: your attempt to attack American democracy to the end of overturning an election and restricting information access is weak, authoritarian, and antidemocratic. Its also not working because it is so obviously partisan.

The President of the United States just announced his intentions regarding the negotiations over the stimulus bill via Twitter. Are you suggesting that his tweet should be ignored?

Twitter is a medium, not a source. The source is the person behind the account, not the platform through which the message was sent.

This (non) story reminds me of the "investigations" in NY about Trump.

Nothing is going to come from either, they're just political theatre to try to insinuate guilt before an election.

honestly I didnt think we would see this level of desperation nonsense for at least another week. I swear, they seem to think folks are dumb enough to fall for this twitter sourced outrage? Very few people are dumb enough to fall for this I would hope.
