"Are Congressional Republicans with us, or against us? The nation deserves to know, right now. "

Russia manipulated our election and at the moment appear poised to install their puppet into the presidency of our nation. Are our elected officials in Washington DC with us, or against us?

This is treason. What the Trump Campaign did with Russia’s help using Wikileaks, what Mitch McConnell tried to suppress, what James Comey did eleven days before the election, is treason.

This transcends political parties. This is bigger than Trump and Clinton and any single politician at any level of government. What is happening, right now, is a state-sponsored coup.

Right now, at this moment, the integrity of the United States as a nation is under threat.


Look at all the connections that the Trump campaign has to Russia:

Trump always supportive of Putin and never criticizing him.
Trump threatens NATO
Trump hires Manafort, a propagandist for Putin’s hand picked czar in Ukraine.
Trump campaign says they want to suppress Democratic turnout, then Wikileaks starts publishing emails hacked by Russian agents.
Russians hack RNC and release nothing.
When media starts taking Russian hacking seriously just before the election, Comey violates all justice department protocols and causes media shitstorm about Clinton emails.
Some of the most important things to Putin is oil and U.S. sanctions. He makes billions on oil. Trumps now leading candidate for Secretary of State is the CEO of Exon who received one of Russia’s highest awards and is a close personal friend of Putin.

The GOP has become a cult with a pathological lust for power by any means necessary.

My mistake - that meme has been reverse engineered, and tricked me. Took it down as soon as I so your objection. Thank you.

...No, make that their only suit. It's pretty sad really; most of us are pulling to keep our beloved country from going over the proverbial cliff.... and all we usually get from the party of "NO" is more duplicity and manipulation.

The smoking gun to finally put these rethugs away, is to find an actual link between Trump/the Republican Party and Putin's US election meddling!!
