I'm sorry....before Musk robber barons....progressives made a dent but we never really had democracy. We were supposed to after the voting rights act but......

If you examine what Putin did to acqure power -- and rubles-- it's happening now. He's probably as rich, if not richer than Musk. IMHO Biden is our last hope.

Last September, DOJ asserted that Sergey Kiriyenko had created some 30 internet domains to spread Russian disinformation, including on Elon Musk’s X which was formerly known as Twitter. In October, the Wall Street Journal disclosed that Musk had been in contact with Kiriyenko and Vladimir Putin which Dmitry Peskov affirmed.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergey_Kiriyenko

Russian businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin said he had interfered in U.S. elections and would continue doing so in future, We have interfered (in U.S. elections), we are interfering and we will continue to interfere. Carefully, accurately, surgically and in our own way, as we know how to do." https://www.reuters.com/world/us/russias-prigozhin-admits-interfering-us-elections-2022-11-07/

I know that the FBI has been on the job. I wonder what they have? Why are the Dems not asking these questions? MSM? It just seems to me that if there were an involutary takeover, everything else is a distraction if we want to keep a semblance of fairness.

Daniel you asked: "I know that the FBI has been on the job. I wonder what they have? Why are the Dems not asking these questions? MSM? "

My learned answer is that they are preoccupied with finding a less than obvious way of morphing into the cult.

When Trump takes over, they (and we) will become the perps.
