The biggest problem I have is the attempts to undermine Zelensky and US support for Ukraine at CPAC.
Superpacs are not required to disclose their donors, thanks to Citizens United.
The NRA was blatantly caught accepting Russian money, then Giullinan associates Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman were both prosecuted for the same thing, several GOP superpacs and politicians were forced to return that money.
Then the FBI's McGonigal was busted working for Putin just weeks ago.
These are only what we know of, despite Superpac's not having to disclose their donors.
I am NOT looking to target the GOP, but to say that we already know they have made payments to political interests here to sway US foreign policy.
There are more examples of Russian money being funneled into the U.S. and until we do something about Superpac's allowances for secrecy, there's no reason to not invoke critical thinking any time a US politician openly favors a foreign adversary.
It has to stop, and for those who think I'm "attacking" the GOP, imagine what happens when China starts funneling money into Superpacs.
What about Chinese, Iranian or North Korean governments, or the Islamic State?
What would we do if, out of the blue, members of Congress started promoting Sharia law?
I honestly believe that current members of Congress are doing Putin's bidding, and if it's not dealt with it WILL get a lot worse, and it won't just be Putin either.
