So about the Russia-China alliance

China does realize that the Trump-Putin alliance is what turned a lot of US citizens AGAINST China and Chinese people, right???
Trump and the GOP continue to forge ahead with the China hate. Trump with the help of his groveling GOP is responsible for ushering in a new era of Russian power with the help of the white supremacist movement and the ultra sophisticated use of GOP and Trump messaging.

Putin was smart engaging Trump early in the game. He recognized that someone with Trump's ego and ignorance could be used to accomplish what Putin has wanted for the past 60 or more years. Trump practically handed Trump America and NATO on a silver platter. It's easier now for Putin to take over since Trump did such a fine job of dividing America to the point of irreversible weakness. Oh sure, we have the weapons to engage but no longer do we have the patriotic will to protect ourselves. As long as the GOP is in power they will do whatever it takes domestically to protect themselves, even if it means thwarting laws that would hold them accountable.

THE AXIS OF EVIL: TRUMP-GOP-PUTIN LOOK WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO US.

172 GOP vote against extending the Violence Against Women Act.

If Democrats continue to govern as though they will lose in 2022, they WILL lose in 2022. We need to begin by fighting back as though we know we ARE going to win in 2022 and take on the like of Mitch and the MAGAs in the House and Senate. We have nothing to lose at this point. We need to go down fighting, sticking together even over issues with which we do not entirely agree.

We need to act to achieve a solid majority in the Senate and the House. Get out there and promote the good that Biden has done thus far. It seems to me that the GOP is doing damage to themselves with their inhumane and grotesque behavior in the House and the Senate. Call them out and take them on! Stand up to the bullies. There are many folk who used to vote GOP who are now disgusted with them. Build on their disgust and don't give up!

Destroy the filibuster NOW! Pass what you want and let the chips fall where they may.

it just seems to me that the Dems are not doing enough to keep that report on Russia in the mainstre

They should be pounding this story in every press interview. Change the subject back to the devastating information that Trump and many GOP Senators and Reps knew exactly how much Russia was interfering in 2016. Plus they should connect it directly to what Mitch is doing now. Russia use them and they used Russia to be able to thwart everything that Obama wanted to do to help the country. They knew they would win in state houses because Russia was helping them there also. The GOP was involved in a web of deceit controlled by Russia. We were focused on the national election but the Russians were helping the GOP [it pit disinformation and lies that helped them mightily in the state houses around the country.

There ought to be more calls for investigating the ties between GOP Senators and Reps to Jan 6. Some should even be prosecuted, including Barr, for what they did to divide the nation and are continuing to do.

If they locked up the guilty insurrectionists Senators and House Reps we would own both houses.

For the good of the country there ought to be at least two or three Senators who are willing to change parties.
