Russian Election Interference Finds Ready Conduit In GOP Senators | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

Rachel Maddow notes an particularly specific warning from the director of the ODNI's National Counterintelligence and Security Center that "pro-Russia Ukrainian parliamentarian Andriy Derkach is spreading claims about corruption" as part of Russia's efforts to manipulate the 2020 U.S. election against Joe Biden and in support of Donald Trump. Derkach has not only been using Rudy Giuliani to spread his claims, but Republican senators Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley have also been receptive to the Russian tactic. Aired on 8/7/2020

Russian Election Interference Finds Ready Conduit In GOP Senators | Rachel Maddow | MSNBC

If Russia does not want Biden, that proves we must vote blue. Please vote for Biden on Nov.3.

[coastghost]

America is literally falling apart in front of our eyes

[mcemct]

So, remember folks: “The fish stinks from the head down.”

[brunobembi]

The whole GOP has to be thrown in jail and the party should be disbanded

[shawn]

I sure hope someone is suing them for trying to gut the post office.

[crossccologne]

I just hope Americans will not fall for this again...

[santolify]

NRA - RUSSIA - GOP - THAT ORANGE BABOON. They're all connected.

[graemesloan]

There is only one word for them traitors and as such they shall be judged.

[chewbactimusprime]

So nothing Grasley says now can be trusted, and his people need to vote him out asap.

[CB-ztqs]

Maddow really knows how to lay it down in a concise manor. Any logical human being can understand her. Logical is the key word here.

[Maeday-ohnw]

It’s like they aren’t even trying to hide their shady actions.

[auntiepha]

Daily Reminder: Trump called Covid-19 a Democrat hoax that would "magically" disappear.

[SmithFam]

Ron Johnson is a Russian asset. Grassly is a Russian asset. Nuff said.

[JDsHouseofHobbies]

When and if this is all said and done, they should be tried for treason and when found guilty, given the appropriate punishment. Every last one of them.

[annek]

All of this explains why Ron Johnson felt the need to cart his backside to Russia a while back! Planning trip? Brown nose much Ron? Explains why you don’t spend any time responding to Wisconsin residents!

[laurajohnson]

Don't worry. We'll be there to vote in person if need be.

[shirleycochrane]

There are no "Clean Hands" in this entire party! All of these enablers must be held accountable!!!

[bizzmoneyb]

“Nobody has been tougher on Russia than me.”
Trump
Ummm.. their own actions show exactly the OPPOSITE.

[faithfulgrl]

I live in Iowa. I am ashamed of
Sen. Grassley.
He's been in office for a long time. Grassley drank the Kool-aid. So did Gov. Reynolds.
God Save Us 🗽🇺🇸

I will be going down to my local court house to place my ballot in a designated drop box.
