"Senate intelligence committee leaders have received reports that Russia hired at least 1,000 trolls to spread fake news stories to hurt Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton during the presidential election."

According to the FBI, this continued right up the day of the election.
But that said, Putin certainly hasn't got what he paid for.

Third, Russia's election meddling has achieved something no Russian leader has previously been able to do: It has turned Democrats into modern-day Cold Warriors. In 2012, after Mitt Romney called Russia our No. 1 geopolitical foe, Democrats cheered Barack Obama for mocking him by saying, "The 1980s are calling to ask for their foreign policy back." Today, five years later, Democrats are suddenly channeling their inner Reagan.
It's ironic. During the Cold War, when the Kremlin was throwing people into the gulag and threatening the United States with nuclear annihilation, many Democrats were all for accommodating Moscow. They opposed the Reagan defense buildup, the Strategic Defense Initiative and aid to anti-Soviet freedom fighters and chafed when Reagan declared the Soviet Union an "Evil Empire." But the Kremlin finally crossed a line when it messed with Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

This thread should be called 'flailing of desperate neocons'. Why?
Neocons for some reason not able to come up with own solution to Obamacare, which is big domestic problem, even though they did many years of talking during Obama era!!! But somehow, they can quickly get veto-proof sanctions on Russia, based on 'Russia hacking' on basically zero evidence
That they are going too far can be seen, from how even pro-US anti-Russia leaders of EU don't want sanctions, like Merkel!!! But no, neocons want their WW3!Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

Thanks.
Russia only loses if neocons in power to keep putting sanctions etc etc on them. But if neocons keep pulling stupid nonsense in stupid way, they'll get kicked out of power.
Then Russia wins!!!Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.
