It's stacking up that way based on behaviour.

(70,504 posts)1. McConnell got $$ from pro Putin businessman in the Ukraine
http://bipartisanreport.com/2017/05/27/mitch-mcconnell-implicated-in-widespread-putinukraine-money-funnel-fbi-notified/
Mitch McConnell linked super PAC took $2.5 million from a pro-Putin Ukrainian businessman last election cycle
******
Both McConnell and Ryan knew
God only knows how wide and deep this corruption goes. Ryan is in a
CYA mood right now.
How did McConnell know if he waited until after the election he would have
somebody else to vote for for SCOTUS?

Paul Ryan & Republican Establishment Used Hacked Info From Russia Against Democrats:
Let's not forget that a super PAC tied to Paul Ryan used material provided by Russia's hacking of the DNC and DCCC.
It was known that Russia had stolen material from the DNC and DCCC and a Paul Ryan Super PAC and as well as other Republican groups used it.
It wasn't just Hillary Clinton being attacked. It wasn't just Trump benefiting. There's potentially more collusion than just that between Trump's team and Russia.

I appear to have just repeated what you said.

(804 posts)2. I'm becoming convinced this is true
And if not Russian money, then Russian information - like Paul Ryan using information from emails hacked by the Russians to attack his opponent.
