MAGA thinks that because they serve Imhotep, er, Putin, they will be immune from what they are bringing down on this country.

Only an elite will benefit from the Trump/Putin dictatorship, and most of those will be Russians.

"It appears to absolutely be false and to really undercut the nature of the charges."

Buck added that it "appears" that Comer and Jordan went public with the information even though they knew it was uncorroborated. ...
