Russia exploits

Russia deployed its military intelligence to attack the United States with “new generation warfare” in a strategy of picking the leaders of their adversary. President Trump cooperated with their efforts because it benefited him in the election.

Now he denies it, calls for the investigations to stop, and fires the man leading the FBI investigation. If the cover-up succeeds, not only will it leave in place as president a man who sold out his country, it will leave the country open to ongoing exploitation by the Russians for years to come.

Republican congressman and senators who aid the cover-up for temporary partisan advantage instead of protecting our country should be thrown out of office.
