The cloud over tonight's SOTU: WE HAVE BEEN INVADED AND OCCUPIED BY AN ENEMY POWER [View all]

The Russians have found it cheaper, more efficient, safer for their sons, and just as effective to meddle electronically as it might be to invade with troops.

They control our president and congress as surely as if they were in Washington, DC wearing military uniforms.

These are fundamental facts that very few people are stating as such. They do not wish to be seen as "nutty" or "fringe" or "leftists" or some other dismissive term.

Look to other countries to see the effect some years out. Ukraine. Azerbaijan, Syria. Others.

Look to those at or close to our levers of power. Manaforte. Page, Flynn, The Orange-Oligarch-Wannabe. Nunes, The Trump spawn. Look to the attempts to undermine the very institutions there to protect from such an invasion. This is not a normal time and this is not politics as usual.

We are VERY CLOSE to needing to take to the streets, not to overthrow our government, but to expel invaders.

Yeah, I know. "You're a silly old man, Stinky."

Oh yeah?
