and get them to understand what exactly is at stake when they disparage America's embrace of immigrants, when they turn their eyes and ears away from the interference of another nation like Russia into our politics and how that allows control of our nations wealth and economy by "outsiders." It has happened too much already with most of our legacy companies having been sold to groups outside of our nation. Most of these companies carry their legacy names but are totally owned and controlled by non-citizens who don't really care if we all get along or not.

There is a link to how McConnell thwarted a call to investigate Russian interference into the 2016 campaign, the lifting of Obama sanctions against Russian oligarchs, and now a huge investment of over 200 million by a Russian into Kentucky.

Can we at least stop with the code? If people feel that we need Biden because racist, sexist bigots would feel more comfortable voting for him then we should just say that. Leave the dog whistles and coding to Republicans and the media.
