6. yeah, probably...I thought it was basically acknowledged that Russia did everything they could

to steal the election...I got the impression that the Republicans were past that, with their general consensus being "yeah? So what?," and that their stance was more "you can't prove Individual 1 personally committed a crime," with the tacit acknowledgment that this is largely on account of the effective obstruction of the investigation, and the evidence of that 2nd thing was then presented for Congress to evaluate. Except I guess the standard procedure now is for the Executive Branch to just investigate itself and then declare itself to be all above board, and everything's cool, so nobody worry about it.

I mean really, I thought it was a given that the Russians hacked everywhere they could, and we "don't have evidence" of any vote flipping because that's probably not really exactly how they did it, etc. But the fucking Republicans, who control everything really, don't give a shit. Seriously, ask them. They sell t-shirts that basically brag about it--"better Russian then democrat" or what-the-fuck-ever. Fucking bunch of traitors.
