Trump and Putin made a deal to “study” the possibility of computer hacking interference to undermine our democracy.
Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) , ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee had the perfect response : ” A cyber security working group with the very perpetrators of the attack on our election ? Might as well just mail our ballots to Moscow.”
Wise old “Honest Abe” Lincoln nailed it years ago : ” When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty — to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy.”

Benjamin Franklin allegedly said “Those who choose safety over liberty will have neither.” Well – those who choose money [and allegiance to the billionaire class] over freedom will have neither., So I say Russia is NOT stealing our freedom. This country is giving its freedom away because of the collusion with the dumbing down of education. Without teaching civics, of course voting percentages go down. Most Americans do not know what the “Bill of Rights” is and even those who do know do not know what the Bill of Rights contains. Substituting the internet for reading in depth journalism is also giving our freedom away. So is worshiping money over liberty [and in doing this, the populace is guaranteed NEITHER money nor freedom].
Russian stealing and US selling of our freedom are not mutually exclusive. They co-exist.
