Money quote (among many):

Just for the record, it doesn't matter whether or not Hillary Rodham Clinton would have won without the Russian ratfcking or not. The very existence of the ratfcking is the whole point. And, if you're going to descend from your ivory towers and start talking about American meddling overseas, if you can find me an Iranian, a Chilean, or a Guatemalan who hacked this election, you might have a case. But a Russian oligarch as the vehicle for some sort of karmic justice? Please.

And it has to start soon because El Caudillo del Mar-A-Lago has begun to lose it again, and his spokesbots, especially RNC mouthpiece Sean Spicer, have been reduced to raving bafflegab. This will only get worse because the Clinton camp and the White House both weighed in heavily on the side of the investigation on Monday. This likely will set off the president-elect again. Properly run, investigative committees can be great vehicles for clarity. The available evidence is that the incoming administration treats clarity the way vampires treat daylight.

Well worth a read. to MADem for showing me how to C&P on my Kindle Fire.
