would do. The lies that Russia didn't actually hack into the voting system needs to end along with other lies and deceptions we are witnessing. We are being deceived by the very people who are supposed to be honest with the American people.

Ask yourself, why does our illegitimate president gush with happiness everytime he is in the presence of Russians.

Little-by-little and in drips-and-drabs, we will probably find out that Russia indeed not only had the capacity, but PROBABLY DID CHANGE ACTUAL ELECTORAL RESULTS in certain select locales that could/would decide the election. No one wants to admit nor own up, because it could highlight what a partisan joke our electoral system has become. We outsource the most important functions of our government to partisan factions THAT IN ESSENCE, ANSWER TO NO ONE. Their source code is private. The results are not independently verifiable.

Thank you, Reality Leigh Winner! Your Country owes you a debt of gratitude!

Malcolm Nance thought she is a traitor to the craft. Others say it would have all come out regardless of her leaking.

Haven't read much on this yet but seems she was doing the right thing.

So she certainly seems to have struck a nerve.

Here's some of the typical fare from the pro-Cheeto blogosphere:

If she was working for Russia, this might have been done to steal his thunder.
