Theres two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump, McCarthy said, according to Entous, a superb reporter who heard a tape recording of the colloquy. Swear to God.

In the Post piece, McCarthys remark is met with laughter, and Ryan cautions his colleagues, This is an off the record . . . No leaks! . . . All right?
And then, amid more laughter, Ryan says, This is how we know were a real family here.
Thats how you know that were tight, Steve Scalise, the House Majority Whip, says.
Whats said in the family stays in the family, Ryan concludes.

Same thing Putin has done in European capitals.
And same thing China does in Asia.
It is common knowledge and straight forward.
It is done to make democracies look weak and foolish.
To make them favor autocratic countries.
And in the event of an invasion like with Ukraine and Taiwan,
it is not an invasion it is just a civil war.

Half the people cannot add 2 plus 2 and get 4.
The other half does not care, they like Russia.
