I want to address the usage of "Russia hoax," by the right in particular.

Stefanik etc didn't like being chastised by Fiona Hill re propagating myth that Russia isn't the thing. They said they never have.

But they purposefully use "Russia hoax" as lexicon to dismiss the attack
They do this because their own conclusions, in the report they were waving about, is Russian info ops helped POTUS. They don't want to talk about that. At all. So it isn't "collusion hoax" -- it's "Russia hoax"

Nothing to see here. POTUS had no illicit help.

Oh but he did.
So did Bernie -- which Dems really owe it to themselves to evaluate and discuss. So did Jill Stein. So does Tulsi.

America was targeted with a campaign by a hostile foreign power and, to quote Hill, it was successful.

We live in the consequences every day.
Those consequences are more than POTUS, but include POTUS.

"Russia hoax". Imagine using language like this after 9/11 or Pearl Harbor.

It's meant to disarm, confuse. It's appalling.
