The foundation of his investigation is proving that Russia peddled its influence on the American elections. That's what this indictment does. Next in line is to develop a nexus between those indicted parties and their American counterparts. The web of criminality will spread far and wide. I think it will end up shocking us as to how many of our fellow Americans were complicit in the deceit. Most of them have become so rabidly partisan that they probably thought that their actions were justified and probably too stupid to realize that they were felonies. They've been fed the bullshit line that their worst enemy isn't the Russian interloper intent on discrediting and deconstructing America, but rather the liberal that they call their neighbor, the person who wants equal rights for all and fairness and liberty and a basic infrastructure that protects all of us in a land that can certainly afford it. They've preyed on the divisiveness inherent in modern America; in unchecked Capitalism with a capital C; in distorting rights that place us in peril and limiting those that give us our voice.
I pray that Mueller and his team are the one check and balance that our complicit Republican Congress refuses to be.
After Bush, America breathed a heavy sigh of relief that we would not allow ourselves to be duped again by charlatans and warmongers. We became complacent, mistakes were made, and Russian interference attacked us when we were weak and where we were most vulnerable.
If Mueller can restore order and justice, even temporarily, my hope is that we learn from this experience and take forceful measures that guarantee that the 30% of Americans who would gladly enable fascism are never again allowed to rule our government.
