What is amazing is how so many people are readily brainwashed to believe the Russian/GQP version of events, and make up utter bullshit to support their beliefs. Mueller's Report lays it all out, and if one believes it was a Democrat conspiracy, simply arm-wave it away. However, no small number of these people are trolls who are addicted to the infamy of repeating asinine lies. They even take pride in their immoral behavior. Sucks to be them.

It really is amazing. I'm accustomed to suspending disbelief long enough to enjoy a silly movie, but the
Republicans do it 24 - 7 with the most bizarre lies. It's like they're hypnotized. And Trump is their Svengali. Must be a horror flick. 😱

Actual evidence of Russian interference found: None. Dem version of Benghazi.

Oh you are sooooo wrong. 26 Russian individuals and 3 Russian organizations were indicted. Did any present themselves in court to clear their names? Nope!

@Flyingsaucesir The first round of indictments (Russian teenagers in an oligarch's like farm) showed Russiagate was nothinggate. The second round, random Russian intelligence agents/officials, just before Trump's summit with Putin showed it was politically motivated. Then of course there's the premise, a nation with a shoestring intelligence budget changed the result of the most expensive election campaign in the world? Doesn't past the laugh test. Still, Russiagate has been one of the most effective propaganda campaigns in history, up there with Israel's "The Arabs told the Palestinians to flee!"

@Druvius The Internet Research Agency is not just some slavic frat house. They are staffed by a cadre of very sophisticated digital agents provocateurs. Robert Mueller did not hand down frivolous indictments. Real crimes were committed. And yes, the Russians most certainly succeeded in swaying the 2016 election, mostly through a canny disinformation campaign waged through social media.

@Flyingsaucesir Yes, you think that's a fact. Fascinating.

@Druvius Your darn tootin' I do.

Durham's investigation pretty much fits the definition of "witch hunt."
