Kremlin says Mueller report shows no evidence of Russian meddling

Source: Reuters

<snip>
Speaking to reporters on a conference call, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow regretted the Mueller report was having an impact on its relations with Washington.

“In general, the report still does not include any reasonable evidence at all that Russia allegedly interfered in the U.S. election.

“We, as before, do not accept such allegations,” Peskov said.

And there you have it, from the horse's mouth. The Russian's agree with tRump and the GOP. They did not interfere.

Time to move on. I mean it's not like they'd have anything to gain by promoting such propaganda, right?

It makes you wonder for whom this denial is intended other than the terminally delusional.

REPORTER (Jeff Mason from Reuters): President Putin, did you want President Trump to win the election and did you direct any of your officials to help him do that?

PUTIN: Yes, I did. Yes, I did. Because he talked about bringing the US/Russia relationship back to normal.

Freedom is Slavery
--From 1984, George Orwell

Actually, the Soviet Union was Orwell's model for 1984. It was commonly thought it was about fascism, but it was about totalitarianism in its many forms, with the Soviet Union as a model.

And here we are again. The Soviet Union of course is no more, but not for lack of Putin's trying to revive it in some form.

It was interference with intent to undermine our democracy and democratic institutions. Anyone who helped them is a traitor.

After we patriotic, law abiding Americans have been raked over the coals one more time, maybe we can get laws put in place to prevent the kind of anti-democratic policies the GOP/Mitch McConnell have instituted. That or the dems should get to use them out of precedent.
