If it says Russian is the bad guy in Ukraine, they’re full of crap.

If you really want to know what Russia is doing, watch this. You're joking right? This was nothing more than Kabuki theater nonsense. Rubio didn't even know what a VPN was when he was asked about it.

I watched the entire hearing, the grilling three of “experts” on Russia hacking. When of the experts claimed that Russia was responsible for Trump eading fake news and re-tweetung it, it became apparent the bias, The expert claimed Russian news sites go active when the know the Trump is online and then he reads fake news sites and re-spreads false rumors about things like obsmas birth certificate and Obama spying! What a dumb guy fir an "expert" .. He also indicated that citizens reading wiki leaks was a bad influence (never mind it was all true) as the result of Russians . He also said their needs to be a built in snoops link to every on-line news story,. basically this expert was full of BS.

The other two experts were more level headed claiming the Russians have been spying on us since the cold war, but have stepped up their efforts under Putin. They all agreed Russians are broadcasting propaganda and try to interfere in all elections in tge free world , not just ours and not so much to favor any candidate but to cause distrust amongst the people in the system.

One the positive side, it was exposed out that Russians supported black life matters in their news targeted in America, and one if the expert agreed the last 8 years of weak policy by Obama has embolden the Russians to be more aggressive.

Its obvious there is a lot of distrust in our president now by a good portion of snowflake's, but nobody in the hearing picked up on this connection, yet the Russians are likely happy with our present political discourse.

1. The hearings: one after another Democrat says the Russians influenced the election to hurt Clinton and benefit Trump.

2. Marco Rubio makes the broader point that Russians seek to sow disharmony in the west.

There are people out there who are not nice. The Euro-weenies are disarmed and addicted to Russia for oil and natural gas. The Chinese are running a huge trade surplus with us and using the cash they are generating to buy up our companies.
