Sad to say--I just attended a Town Hall Tuesday with my Congressman. He his a high-ranking person in the House Progressive Caucus.
One or two men in the audience stood up and berated him for his unquestioning support for the corrupt to officials at the FBI and for Russiagate in general. He is normally very honest-seeming, but he has apparently thrown in the trash any concern about forfeiting his good name by associating with certain obviously corrupt members of the National Security State. It amazes my how many (otherwise solid) people who used to be honest, freedom-respecting progressives, have just thrown their basic good judgment in the ash-can over this Russiagate.
The old saying is that "murder will out." In the intermediate and longer term, I don't see how they think that the voting public will support this third-world style criminalization of political opponents. They apparently don't realize that we are no longer in the era where Walter Cronkite can spoon-feed bogus information to a captive audience. Thank goodness for Deep Politics Forum and these similar sites!
