Lol that would be incredible if true - Russia did not hack the election, but hacked the fraudulent software planted by the DNC that WOULD HAVE manipulated the election results on the backend.

It only begs the question of why they'd allow it to happen this time under the same/similar circumstances, with as much or more at stake for Russia on the global stage.

Members of congress are not immune to arrest. The Fed regs that they can't be arrested on the floor of the house or senate has been confused with legal immunity many times here.

Being diplomatically tough and striving for cooperation are not mutually exclusive.

I think Russia and the US have MUCH more in common than literally almost any other country in the Eastern Hemisphere, and its a shame that we cannot unite to fuck China up the ass and divy up the rice fields.

Joking, but only about taking their land. Split it into 10 independent kingdoms so we can have Dynasty Warriors 2020.

Joking. But Russia US alliance would really be something.

Looks like we might be getting the old gang back together again.

I mean, if I were Russia, the last thing I would want is China, who shares a significant border with myself to become the dominant world power. At least the US is on another hemisphere.

I mean let’s be honest, the CCP is the new Fascist government:

  • Powerful and Continuing Nationalism? Yep.
  • Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights? Yep.
  • Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause? Yep.
  • Supremacy of the military? Yep, just not in the traditional sense.
  • Rampant sexism? Yep.
  • Controlled Mass Media? Yep.
  • Obsession with National Security? Yep.
  • Religion & Government Intertwined? Yep Confucianism, Buddhism & Daoism.
  • Corporate Power is Protected? Yep.
  • Labor Power is Suppressed? Yep.
  • Disdain for Intellectuals & the Arts? Yep, they infiltrated them.
  • Obsession with Crime and Punishment? Yep.
  • Rampant Cronyism and Corruption? Yep.
  • Fraudulent Elections? Yep.

He is, but he is also fair and transparent. Biden poses the same threats of war that Hillary brought to the table with her calls for a Syrian no-fly zone.
