We are experiencing something that we have never seen before. [View all]

There is no roadmap to follow.

The GOP has become, wittingly or unwittingly, an agent for the Russian government. FOX News is the propaganda arm of the same treasonous and dastardly conspirators.

There is no precedence to follow. We are making our own trails with this investigation.

We cannot paint GOP voters as traitors. They are nothing more than sheep that have been led to slaughter. They were simply brainwashed by FOX News and other propagandists.

We cannot permit ourselves to become fearful or paranoid. We must continue to uncover this story until our democracy is transparent. We have no other choice.
