I always look at Russia but China has been making hay, so to speak, on the attempted downfall of our democracy. China is using our failing democracy as a talking point to advance less democracy there.

China could very well be a bigger player than Russia in the demise of our democracy. Bannon was arrested on that Chines billionaire's yacht. I believe that Trump and Ivanka still do business there. I have no doubt that Russian and Chinese money is flowing to the people destroying our democracy.

Merrick Garland better be acting. Schumer better get those voter protection bills passed soon, the MSM will never do its job, Nicolle, Chris, and Rachel get it.
