The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong. Frederick Douglas

The line "If you're not a Russian Bot then you will become one if you retweet" makes it pretty clear what his intent is, which is that Russian bots really aren't needed to spread stuff across social media, which is also the point of the article he referenced which describes how the mainstream media has willfully and without the aid of Russian bots propagated a number of Trump/Russia conspiracy theories while ignoring any facts and evidence that don't support their narrative:

It's concerning that the head of the House Select Committee believes such jokes are appropriate. He has remade his committee into a punchline.
Fortunately, there are multiple committees investigating the issue.
And Mueller.

As much as liberals don't want to admit it, the Democrat response was a flop... oh, and this isn't just going to go away:
But according to the article, this is not news because Session's justice department has been pursuing a number of leads since at least early-January, but it is Sessions's stated policy not to comment on ongoing investigations, which is probably why we haven't heard much about this (that and the mainstream media's studious indifference to this scandal). However, we can judge by the explosive revelations contained in the Nunes and Graham/Grassley memos and the Democrat party's utter failure to substantively counter the facts that we can be sure this thing has teeth. And there are rumors that Nunes has other memos up his sleeve that will be released over time.

Meanwhile, Nunes is proceeding with his investigation like a pitbull and has threatened subpoenas if people don't voluntarily cooperate.

Sounds like McCabe may be in some piping hot water.
That last paragraph there is a doozy. It sure sounds like Obama's Justice Department was eager to quash any investigation into Hillary's dirty-dealings. It's probably less a matter of what they were afraid they would find and more they a matter of knew exactly what they would find.
Although we need to be careful since this is the New York Times, and have don't have the best reputation, especially when it comes to anonymous sources.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

This is too long and complex to easily summarize, but the short version is that AG Sessions may be a lot further ahead in the game than we realize:

If this analysis is correct, it sounds like the DOJ has been working closely with a prosecutor for almost year and building a case against Obama and his gang.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
