Their murder squads are increasingly being caught by open-sourced groups matching information.
Maybe Pute should just try a bit of real openness, democracy, encouragement instead of fear.
Nah, he'd be piked.

And btw,there is a ton of payback in Putin's mind for how we destroyed the Russian economy as well as armed and gave intel to the Taliban who chased the Russian Army out of Afghanistan.
European and Asian Countries plan years in advance,we being Governed by the GOP plan only till maybe yesterday.

There's got to be a cognitive disconnect between their thinking and reality.

The majority of Americans want answers about what tRump knew/did and when in regards to the bounty revelation. To put it mildly, distrust of tRump and his lot of enablers is well-founded. Any claims made after a partisan briefing are just framing/talking points used to get ahead of the story.
