2. So the position now in the GOP is Russia and their murderous dictator are our pals.

In fact one rightwing rag said that since Russia has pretty women, they cant be an enemy.

[L. Coyote]

7. Russians are fellow white people.

This aspect of the nationalists view of Russian shouldn't be ignored. White nationalism is a problem in both countries.

9. Those who used to chant "Rather be dead than Red!" now would "Rather be White than American!"

[Kleveland]

16. How about "Rather be White than Right!" (as in correct, not wing) n/t

11. For what it's worth, Konstantin Rykov gave Scavino (among others) a heads up on his launch...

....of a Russia Pro-Trump website back in August 2015.

(Rykov is the former Russian legislator turned "Putin's Trollmaster" who bragged about influencing the 2016 elections just days after Trump was elected.)

Note, this doesn't prove Scavino and Rykov actually communicated back and forth, but it certainly shows an awareness by Rykov as to who Scavino was.

12. But I thought they never accessed Hillary's private server ?

[denbot]

15. That was my impression.

Misrepresentation of the source would be well within their M.O.

[bucolic_frolic]

13. Whatever you say

there's someone listening out there

[Achilleaze]

17. the republican-backed russian war on America's assets,

including our power grid, our nuclear facilities, and our electoral system, is dark, nasty, corrosive, explosive, vicious.

How can the republicans betray America this way by pretending it's not happening?

[dalton99a]

18. Kick.

[BigmanPigman]

19. "LIES! ALL LIES!", says the Donald.

There were 30,000 damn it! Can't you count?!
