Tennessee attorney G. Kline Preston IV said Russia is 'much better' at running elections than the United States.
A Tennessee attorney who worked on a Michigan lawsuit alleging voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election has a history of working with Russian nationals, an investigation by the American Independent Foundation has found.
The lawyer, G. Kline Preston IV, worked with a conservative legal group in Michigan as part of an effort to overturn the election results in the state, where Joe Biden defeated former President Donald Trump by a slim margin in 2020.
Preston has worked for Republican politicians and causes as a legal adviser for nearly two decades. He has said he is "family friends" with Sen. Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, whose campaign he represented in 2005 as it was being investigated for possible finance violations. He gave legal advice to Blackburn's 2007 House campaign and worked with her as recently as 2014.

(3,400 posts)Primarily Republicans but also Democrats. After Watergate and AbScam there were laws to stop this.
Citizens United basically made it legal to buy/bribe members of Congress. However, I think the corruption was building up before then. Slowly at first but now a flood.
Cleaning this up will be nearly impossible. I say that because our law enforcement is unwilling to take it on leaving just the peoples voice. Congress doesnt listen to us.

What was so surprising in this story was that she interviewed a church member who invites her to his home and showed her his huge cache of guns. He commented that he wanted to be ready for the war to come. And when she asked him which side he would fight on, he said he was on Russias side because they are in the right and will start the war in America.
I am gobsmacked that some people here are ready for Putin to invade the US and will fight with him.
