17. Well there was always that doubt about the 2016 election

and who funded that too...

The U.S. is essentially engaged in a proxy war with Russia by providing Ukraine increasingly sophisticated offensive and now defensive weaponry and thankfully, when compared to our fiasco in Afghanistan attempting to do the same for 20 years (providing training and weaponry), it has been a good investment.

But if you for one minute think that Russia is going to sit back and allow this to continue without some kind of response directly at us, then something something about that bridge in Brooklyn....

The spawn of the teabaggers are mostly keyboard warriors ranting in their echo chambers and the rest need to be "directed" by some (usually grifting) figureheads to do what they do, and right now, some of the usual funders are "tied up" at the moment. And that opens that path to funding directed towards what is left of the organized RWers (where some like the Proud Boys, 3%ers, and Oath Keepers are otherwise indisposed at the moment being tried in court as I type). All they have to do is go on the dark web to places like 4chan or 8chan or wherever and start stoking using fake accounts, and then start up a funding stream to get it going. This can build into a new narrative that goes beyond the southern border issue and seeks to "blame" the current administration for a lack of security of the U.S. in general.
