Let THIS Sink In - POTUS has NEVER charged the FBI with protecting US elections from Russia!

FBI Director Wray just testified in the Senate that — despite Russia’s ongoing intrusions into our electoral systems — POTUS has NEVER charged the FBI with protecting US elections from Russia! LET THAT SINK IN. That’d be like FDR doing nothing in response to Pearl Harbor.

are we asleep? Are we just going to let this to continue to happen? I'm not feeling any sense of urgency from the populace to rebel against this Russian backed crime syndicate that is in the Oval.

most likely we will let this continue to happen. it's an amorphous crime and it's hard to know exactly what to demand from whom.

lets be realistic. how would "we" stop it if the president refuses to act?
