    Oh, I know what the threat to America is! It’s everybody with an R next to their name in our government. They say that the R stands for republican, but it really means Russian.

      Uhhhm, the article was mostly Republican congressmen urging the President to declassify the briefings and they all said the threat originates from Russia. So this is one of those rare times where Republicans seem to be genuine in their concern

        Never, ever, ever assume a Republican is being genuine in any way, for any reason, at any time, especially when it is regarding Russia.

        One of two things is happening; Putin has either told them what to say in an effort to stir up some nonsense controversy, or he has lied to them about something to make them useful idiots.

        Or, Putin doesn’t know what it is we know about so they call to declassify it all so it can be public
