it just seems to me that the Dems are not doing enough to keep that report on Russia in the mainstre

They should be pounding this story in every press interview. Change the subject back to the devastating information that Trump and many GOP Senators and Reps knew exactly how much Russia was interfering in 2016. Plus they should connect it directly to what Mitch is doing now. Russia use them and they used Russia to be able to thwart everything that Obama wanted to do to help the country. They knew they would win in state houses because Russia was helping them there also. The GOP was involved in a web of deceit controlled by Russia. We were focused on the national election but the Russians were helping the GOP [it pit disinformation and lies that helped them mightily in the state houses around the country.

There ought to be more calls for investigating the ties between GOP Senators and Reps to Jan 6. Some should even be prosecuted, including Barr, for what they did to divide the nation and are continuing to do.

pushed to the back ... I think that's why the repugs have seemed to be a voice of repugnant behavior, to a T, every one of them, either racist, or ignorant, or something...something tells me that they're trying to distract us from something...any suggestions on what, besides the Russia thing?

had hearings, had the Mueller report, had people go to jail, and then had pardons. The Justice Department must be up to their eyeballs, and I no longer pay attention to the current investigations Congress is involved in, but I know there's a bunch. Maybe you should look on their website?

on every new show I've watched since last night. That would be four news shows where it was talked about in at least one segment.

working on dealing with the issue that will help more.

Right now more imporant for people to know is things like the covid relief bill and other things we are working on for the people.

We will have to wait for movies on the Russian attacks for more people to get some interest or know what happened.
