(32,740 posts)about what the football players were doing. And the players kept reiterating that they were not doing it to be disrespectful. Spike Lee was there and he didn't coddle the family that was trotted out, so that was refreshing. Honestly, overall, it felt like a waste of time.

(7,533 posts)She just said former operatives of dump's campaign worked with Russians in the recent German election but didn't list a source. I couldn't find a link searching but will keep looking. The RW machine and Russia appear to be in lockstep in attempting to destroy demcracy worldwide.

(11,686 posts)I have ADHD and learning disability. She explains everything so well that even I understand. She sticks to the subject long enough for me to grasp but not so long that my attention deficit takes over. I know it drives others up the wall but I am happy because I understand. I like O'Donnell and Hays also but Rachel brings it home to me.

(20,016 posts)Russia is trying to make itself bigger/stronger (expansionism) while doing whatever it can to make other countries smaller/weaker (reductionism: Brexit, Drumpf, chaos, divisiveness, AfD, Calexit, Texit, etc.). I think ol' Pooty may have an unquenchable thirst for power, maybe longing for a return to the "respect" that comes with superpower status.

(8,515 posts)I think that if Putin is thrown out of power..He'll probably spend the rest of his life in Prison.
There are just tons of reputable news reports which places Putin in the center of assassinations of
dissidents ..in Russia.. Yea, he'd be goner

The Facebook revelations (Russia) and the lack of government coordination in Puerto Rico are mindblowing!

(5,815 posts)I know it is annoying for some when she repeats important points as she connects one thing to another, but we are dealing with a complicated, convoluted tale that involves many players and places all over the world. When all the facts are known, there will be many books written on the subject, as well as movies. I have seen a few charts that have been developed to try to explain how people are connected in the whole scheme. Rachel will patiently explain, piece by piece, how the segments relate to one another and, without a few repeated points, it would be easy to get confused. So I don't fault her for that. I think she finds all the details fascinating and just wants to make sure her audience follows along without getting lost in the maze.
One thing for sure----when the rubes who think this is all a hoax finally wise up, they are going to be in for a shock. At least the rest of us have been getting tutorials all along and the story is starting to come together nicely. Seeing how tRump reacts as Mueller closes in on people makes a whole lot more sense now. The cornered rat tries desperately to avoid the trap. Too late, tRump. You wanted the crown so badly you were willing to sell your soul (or what passes for your soul). Now you pay the price for your folly. Many will cheer when you are forcefully removed from the Oval Office. Will you be counting the crowd size on that day?
