Entire investigation into Russia investigation is utterly silly, and just perpetuates a strike by Russia on US democracy. Putin still getting a return on a 4+ year old operation "Justice Dept. Is Investigating C.I.A. Resistance to Sharing Russia Secrets" nyti.ms/31R7Otv
Russia attacked America, in response America attacked itself repeatedly for years. An attempt to institutionally re-write history support President's conspiracies. Problem is, premise is in opposition to what Senate Intel released last week npr.org/2020/02/06/803…
Barr/Durham investigation asserts whole thing was cooked up, Senate Intel says Obama admin didn't respond quick enough, forcefully enough. which is it? Why are we destroying our institutions find out what we already know & can openly observe. Putin said he wanted Trump to win

For all those Trump supporters worried about the ‘Deep State’ (aka professional civil servants) & loyalty over competency, well here’s where it swings back around “Market plunge over coronavirus fears underscores political risk to Trump”⁩ washingtonpost.com/politics/marke…
Good luck to White House Trying building a coalition after taking a dump on alliances for 3+ years and putting a thumb in the eye of our traditional allies. How’d it go during that Iran coalition building exercise?
Somehow this Presidential tweet doesn’t give me a warm and fuzzy White House has Coronavirus plan locked down

“Trump or Sanders?: Who does Russia Want to be President?” My new post @FPRI #FIE2020 team analysis based on news reports of Russia liking Trump and helping Sanders fpri.org/fie/trump-sand… via @FPRI
As discussed in article, 4 narratives to Kremlin influence during this phase- 1. Elevate preferred candidate 2. Denigrate viable challengers to Russia & preferred candidate 3. Split the opposition pitting populists vs establishment 4. Support fringe candidates to suppress turnout
With that formula in mind, Kremlin strategy is straightforward. Elevate a Trump, Attack Biden and now Bloomberg, Elevate Sanders with narrative of DNC rigging it (Same plan, different election)

This should not be a surprise to anyone, is consistent with their enduring strategy & mirrors the analysis of ⁦@FPRI⁩ #FIE2020 team “Bernie Sanders briefed by U.S. officials that Russia is trying to help his presidential campaign” washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
As discussed last year @thedailybeast - Kremlin strategy 2020 appears to be what the intel community has been briefing to Capitol Hill, White House & campaigns - Secure the vase, split the opposition thedailybeast.com/the-kremlins-s…
“Secure the base”

Though this is a complex & ongoing #investigation, it’s clear the DNC has not been open & transparent—for what reason we don’t yet know. This is a poignant example of why we need new laws to open up the finances of our elected representatives.

#Putin's opening to this press conference suggests the takeover of southern #Syria by Asad/Iran is a model of U.S.-Russia cooperation that should be expanded, and flatters Trump that his summit with Kim [which Putin very much liked the look of] resolved the Korean Peninsula.
On #Ukraine, Putin hints broadly that the U.S. agrees with him that Kyiv's intransigence prevented Minsk's implementation, and then carefully lets it be known Trump brought up the election meddling, an assist to Trump politically, before of course dismissing it.
Trump frames engagement around U.S.-Russian co-operation in WW2, notes that unfortunate Cold War business, then says: "Our relationship has never been worse ... that changed as of about four hours ago." Says he is being politically brave to do what's right. Lambastes media + Dems
