It is time to go after "those people" Hammer and Tong starting with "the Moscow 8"
How many of them are running for re-election this fall? Every last one of them should be
made to have Vlad Putin as his or her running mate. Even in the reddest of the red states
where they have > 90% of winning put the truth out there for the voters and make them
explain why the turned their backs on America on the 4th of July to hang out with Putin's
henchmen.
I know that Wisconsin's Ron Johnson and Rep. Kay Granger (Tex.) are running this fall.
Take the gloves off and hang Putin around their necks.
“What does July 4th mean to me? Freedom,” Sen. Ron Johnson chirruped on Twitter on Independence Day.
For the Wisconsin Republican, it meant, specifically, the freedom to spend July 4 in Moscow with seven other Republican lawmakers posing for propaganda photos with Russian officials. On the same day it was reported in Britain that two more people had been poisoned by a Russian nerve agent British officials say came from Vladimir Putin’s regime. On the day after the Senate Intelligence Committee affirmed the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia interfered in the election to help Donald Trump.
So, what do we call these Red Square Republicans? My interlocutors on Twitter suggest “Moscow Mules.” Or, given the position they put themselves in before our masters in Moscow, perhaps they should be called the Prostrate Eight: Sens. Richard C. Shelby (Ala.), Steve Daines (Mont.), John Hoeven (N.D.), John Neely Kennedy (La.), Jerry Moran (Kan.), John Thune (S.D.) and Johnson, plus Rep. Kay Granger (Tex.).
