I am worried that the news about the "Russian bounty for American soldiers lives" has fizzled out.

I want to think it’s because of the 4th holiday.... but think his silence won.

Just because something isn't on the front page for a day doesn't mean it's gone away.

just because it's not splashed all over the NYT/WP doesn't mean it's gone away...vets are calling the orange idiot out, the anti-trump ads are brutal...sometimes "under the radar" and subliminal is better than screaming headlines...

I guess trump could have made a speech telling Putin to knock it off; but, we'd all know it was just a show.
