You Can't Say Russia, You Can't Say Hoax

This is really an amazing story that is getting lost in the flurry of news going on. Remember during the impeachment when the Trump people were saying Ukraine was really behind the election meddling? (Yes, they said it). Rudy Guiliani even did a series of Ukraine specials, remember those? Turns out the guy who was feeding him that stuff was a Russian spy. From today's Washington Post...

President Trump, in August, promoted information that the U.S. government has increasingly connected to a Russian disinformation campaign in the 2020 election — after his personal attorney, Rudolph W. Giuliani, worked with the man promoting it. Now the U.S. government says explicitly that the man behind it is a Russian agent.

The Treasury Department on Thursday identified Ukrainian politician Andrii Derkach as an “active Russian agent for over a decade” — a label that could lead to more direct penalties. It added that Derkach has “directly or indirectly engaged in, sponsored, concealed or otherwise been complicit in foreign interference in an attempt to undermine the upcoming 2020 U.S. presidential election.”

This is the same guy that is giving "information" to Senator Ron Johnson who is investigating the Hunter Biden stuff in the Senate. That's right, a friggin Russian spy. When this whole Trump nightmare is over we're going to discover that he was guilty of every single thing he's ever been accused of, but most importantly, he is in ine pocket of the Russians. Period. Anyone who says "Russia Hoax" should choke on the MFin words.
