I also believe they have dirt on the RNC.

They have dirt on all of our politicians.

Time to clean house.



Edited to add: Some might just have dust... like Al Franken.

Follow the money! Same with the GOP. They ALL live for money and gaining more money (and power too). Their greed will hopefully destroy them before it destroys us. He is far too stupid to be a spy and Putin is smart enough to know that.

And for all intents and purposes, that is a distinction without too much difference.

...IMHO, "Spy" denotes someone clever, someone resourceful, someone with principal and purpose. Someone with a cause worth protecting. Someone with more than just a modicum of intelligence.

An "asset" is just a blundering fool, hoisted by his own petard and forced to do the bidding of someone craftier, more intelligent.

Putin won when Trump was inaugurated. Whatever opposition the US might have put up against Russian expansionism is dead.
