Rs have engaged in a coverup re: Manafort’s interactions w/ Deripaska & Kilimnik (a Russian intelligence officer who rec’d Trump campaign polling data from Manafort). Manafort was TFG’s campaign manager. If Rs are so sure there was “no collusion,” what are they hiding?! 1/

4/ The “Russian intelligence asset” was Kilimnik.
5/ When do we get to see the unredacted bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee report and Mueller report?! Without transparency, why should the public trust the government? @RonWyden @SenatorBurr

Someone asked me if I’d ever appear on Steve Bannon’s show to discuss election security. I said “not in a million years.” He said “the right seems always willing to debate the left, but not vice versa.” I told him that meaningful debate requires good faith participants. 1/
Otherwise, “debate” is just another platform for bad faith actors to elevate themselves and spread disinformation. 2/
