I think influence is normal in the realm of geopolitics. It’s something voters should consider though.
Many Russians don't want Biden to win, because he'll ramp the cold war back up, and that's not good for anyone but the military industrial complex. I'm in agreement with them.
It's funny how many people now make the establishment's argument: "Russia doesn't like Biden, therefore we should all vote Biden". But the argument really should be "Russia doesn't want another cold war, and anyone who agrees shouldn't vote Biden"
Thats the conservative narrative but really Russia wants to keep getting away with things like poisoning the most outspoken critic recently with novichok poison along with thousands more in many decades. He wants to Annex disputed territories in have the u.s. be an ally to that. Bernie wouldn't create a cold war but he wouldn't keep silent on very important matters like influencing our election process,making territorial land grabs and poison critics that are fighting for democracy that's as important in Russia as it is in China In 2016 it was determined those interference but I argue that influence from a foreign government that is not an ally is something every voter needs to consider and look at that track record on how "tough" Trump really is to Russia and what that will mean for our actual allies.
He dismissed evidence across the board in 2016 as a witch hunt when our intelligence agencies were telling them that there was Russian nationals sowing discord to get Trump elected, when covid hit he said it was "another russian witch hunt" Now we gather intelligence that our enemy is trying to influence voters into thinking Bernie has dementia which was also proven by the fbi and to create more chaos to help muddy the waters. No matter how you look at it, knowing that the Russians are influencing US voters in a very elaborate ploy should be enough to scare the crap out of people aware of how damaging that is to our specific democratic process.

Yeah there's no scenario where Russia "wins" with nuclear war but they have been playing us like a fiddle since 2016 and it succeeded. We are in a position where almost half the US takes trumps word over the top scientists in the world and the other half are furious that this has become a political issue to save lives. Also I'm not going to blame Russia for this but we have seen more hatred since 2016 than I've seen in 26 years of life we've seen more riots then ever, family and friends that had no problems now hate each other. Russia damages us a lot with that alone, no bombs required.

Conservatives also want people to stop with all the make believe. Yes, the German military claimed novichok poisoning. They won't share their results with anyone, but liberals don't care.
Make believe is now a mainstream liberal thing, and they'll shame people like me for not make believing along with them.

Were going in circles again and this is critical, let's get something straight everything that I say isn't bullshit and everything that you say isn't bullshit but there's been A LOT of poisoned activists, journalists, dissidents etc. That is well documented. First let's establish theyndont poison people unless they think they can get away without proof they did it that being said there's still a long history of critics of put in disappearing being put in gulags and poisonings.
The suspected poisoning of Russia's best-known opposition leader Alexey Navalny is the latest to happen to a long line of Kremlin opponents.
The Kremlin, as it has with Navalny’s case, has denied any involvement but poison has long been a weapon used by the Russian security services and employed by the Soviet Union under president Vladimir Putin.

The suspected poisoning of Russia's best-known opposition leader Alexey Navalny is the latest to happen to a long line of Kremlin opponents.
The Kremlin, as it has with Navalny’s case, has denied any involvement but poison has long been a weapon used by the Russian security services and employed by the Soviet Union under president Vladimir Putin.
In some cases evidence has emerged seeming to strongly link them to the Russian state, while others have remained mysterious.
The Kremlin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Monday told reporters he disagreed there was a “trend” of Kremlin opponents being poisoned.
"You’ll agree that in many country in the world, everyday a lot of poisonings happen,” Peskov said, saying it was necessary to look at every case individually.
(FILES) In this file photo taken on September 29, 2019 Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny speaks during a demonstration in Moscow. - US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on August 25, 2020, the United States is "deeply concerned" about the apparent poisoning of Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny and urged a full investigation.
But the list of those who have troubled the Russian government or security services and then suffered poisoning is lengthy.
Within its first years, the Soviet Union developed a secret poison lab within its security services. The lab, known among security agents as “kamera” -- meaning “the chamber” in Russian -- for decades specialized in developing poisons difficult to detect and, under Joseph Stalin, tested its products on gulag prisoners, according to Soviet defectors.
Boris Voldarsky, a former officer from the Soviet military intelligence agency, the GRU, who has written a book on the KGB poison program has written there is one constant in the lab's products.
“They must make the victim's death or illness appear natural or at least produce symptoms that will baffle doctors and forensic investigators. To this end the Kamera developed its defining specialty: combining known poisons into original and untraceable forms," Voldarsky wrote in an article for The Wall Street Journal in 2005.
There were several famous poisoning episodes during the Cold War. Georgi Markov, a Bulgarian dissident died after a KGB agent pricked him with a ricin-tipped umbrella. In 1957, Nikolai Khokhlov, a KGB defector, came close to death after drinking a cup of coffee laced with an unknown type of thallium.
Poisonings have occurred under Putin almost since the start of his rule. In 2004, Viktor Yushchenko, a candidate who ran against a Kremlin-favored incumbent for Ukraine's presidency was poisoned with dioxin, leaving him disfigured.
The same year, the celebrated investigative journalist, Anna Politkovskaya fell suddenly ill and lost consciousness after drinking a cup of tea while flying to the Russian city of Beslan during the school siege there. She survived, but was shot dead two years later, on Putin’s birthday.
The two poisonings that have most closely associated Putin with poisoning internationally occurred in the U.K. In 2006, Alexander Litvinenko, a former officer from Russia’s FSB security service turned critic, died after being exposed to polonium-210, a radioactive isotope, slipped into his tea at an upscale hotel. British police later sought to charge two Russians, Dmitry Kovtun and Andrey Lugovoy and a U.K. public inquiry concluded that Putin had likely personally ordered the assassination. Russia refused to extradite the two men and Lugovoy was instead made a member of parliament.
In 2018, another former Russian intelligence officer Sergey Skripal, was nearly fatally poisoned with a nerve agent in the English town of Salisbury. The poison, which was identified by British investigators as a nerve agent, known as "Novichok", developed by the Soviet Union as part of a secret chemical weapons program. Russia again denied responsibility, but U.K. police were able to track two men, who were later identified as officers in Russian military intelligence. Both men, Anatoly Chepiga and Alexander Mishkin were found to have previously received Russia’s highest state honor, awarded personally by Putin.
Experts have stressed that Navalny may not have been poisoned at the Kremlin’s order. Navalny, who has made his name with high-profile investigations of alleged corruption among powerful Russians, has many enemies.
The choice of poison though usually means the involvement of Russia's security services, whether acting for the state or corruptly for others.
“No matter whether it’s an attempted murder or just scare tactics, poisonings are pretty much always somehow connected to the security services,” Tatiana Stanovaya, a non-resident scholar at the Carnegie Moscow Center wrote last week, adding that she does not believe the Kremlin ordered the assassination attempt. She wrote she believes the attack on Navalny was likely carried out by powerful figures acting on their initiative, either indifferent to the Kremlin's reaction or believing it would please it. .
Navalny's case for now has drawn the closest comparisons with two other suspected poisoning cases of opposition figures. Vladimir Kara-Murza, a pro-democracy activist from Open Russia, a group funded by Putin foe Mikhail Khodorkovsky, twice nearly died in 2015 and 2017 after his organs suddenly began failing. A French lab found high levels of heavy metals in his blood but was unable to identify the poison.
Petr Verzilov, a member of the protest group, Pussy Riot, two years ago suddenly fell inexplicably and critically ill. He was evacuated to Germany for treatment, kept in an induced coma, and doctors there said he had been poisoned. Verzilov survived and last week helped arrange for Navalny to be airlifted to Germany by the same Berlin-based non-profit that had aided him.
Verzilov has said his symptoms were very similar to Navalny’s and has blamed both poisonings personally on Putin.
The Charité hospital treating Navalny has said its analysis showed he is suffering from poisoning from cholinesterase inhibitors, chemicals that belong to a very broad group of substances ranging from pesticides and medication to military grade nerve agents, that includes Novichok.
Dan Kaszeta, a chemical and biological weapons expert and the author of a book on nerve agents, "Toxic", told ABC News on Tuesday that without knowing what the substance was for now it was impossible to say if whatever had poisoned Navalny had been developed in a sophisticated military lab or something more commonly available.
Andrei Soldatov, a long-time expert on the Russian security services and author of "The Compatriots," a history of Russian espionage abroad, including poisonings, said he did not believe a figure with Navalny's position in Russia could have been targeted without the Kremlin's order.
"I’ve been hearing this argument for like many years. From Politkovskaya, to Litvinenko, to Skripal. That it could not be possibly the Kremlin but someone trying to please the Kremlin," Soldatov said by phone Wednesday. "But the problem with this argument is that in 2020 the situation is not what we had in 2004, 2006. The room for any kind of unsanctioned activity from the secret services especially in such a sensitive area is very limited. It’s really difficult to imagine that somebody would dare to do something that drastic and not first secure some kind of agreement. To be sure that he or she is on the safe side." https://abcnews.go.com/International/navalny-long-history-russian-poisonings/story?id=72579648
Don't you think it a little odd that Putin's most well known critic all of the sudden went into a coma getting sick in all the symptoms of novichok poison which is used by the Russian government? Does that really not raise any red flag for you?

The poisoning I'd assume is Putin.
I think the circumstances are much more interesting than the action itself. I don't think Navalny was supposed to die. I'd be more inclined to think it was an attempt to gain favor if he did die.
The way I see it it's a reminder. It's like the horse head in Godfather, or the movie trope of waking up with a bullet on the nightstand/under the pillow.
I see this more as a political ploy. Putin reached out and touched someone. It's a reminder that Putin can reach out and touch anyone, not limited by borders. It's an expression of power. It's like a drone strike, but subtle. See, the US has a clear way of reaching out and touching someone via air to surface missile from a predator drone. This doesn't work in a crowded city in the middle of an allied country.
Somebody suddenly falling ill with inexplicable symptoms? That can happen anywhere.

Yes, I do agree with this.
The rest of your article does absolutely nothing to prove the poisoning, only to point out how scary things were under Stalin in the USSR nearly a century ago, hoping you'll still be scared today.
Then pointing out how the husband of a member of pussy riot got ill. Why poison the husband of a member of a member of Pussy Riot? (and that was yet another failed "poisoning")

That's a joke, right? Russia has a higher murder rate than the US, and this guy thinks it doesn't happen without Kremlin orders? There's still a question if he was even poisoned or not. The German (NATO) military won't share it's information.

I think it's important to follow all parts of the spectrum. I do. But it is dangerous, because when I flip back and forth from CNN to Fox, the contradictory views of reality can trigger schizophrenic vertigo seizures.
But seriously - I'm amazed how many of my family and friends refuse to follow ANY conservative news and would not watch a single minute of the RNC. My parents only watch Brian Williams on MSNBC, and from our conversations, they often don't know about important things going on.
The conservative commentators who strongly predicted Trumps 2016 victory should get the public's respect. Every employee at CNN, PBS, NBC, CBS, ABC, and CNBC got it wrong!

Actually, almost every single one of them got it right. Statistically, Trump got the votes that were predicted, and Clinton got the votes that were predicted. It's just that with the electoral college, the votes were balanced just so that Trump still won. Within the expected margins, they were correct.

How is Russia benefiting from Trump? I don't see it at all. How is the US weak? We have a $800 billion per year military budget, what's weak about that position on the global stage?
--The federal reserve is printing dollars out the wazoo to keep the US boat, afloat 
--This devalues all dollars for all dollar holders
--The dollar is losing severe credibility as the world's reserve currency.
--More and more nations and corporations get out of the dollar
--America, taken off the world teat, suddenly finds its credit card revoked.
--ghost towns, tumble weeds and potholes.
The best way to have the world drop the dollar like a hot potato is letting Trump fuck it up more.
Yes your army is so strong, but the other America, kinda second world america, is getting bigger and bigger.
Your rich are getting richer but THE MASSES ARE GETTING POORER. If you don't see a problem with that, basic economy.
It' not even that complicated. China buys our shit, Trump offers them extra cash if he gets to keep a percent. US loses.
China has a bigger navy than the US. I don't think it's true that the US is the most powerful military anymore. After all, we did get our shit kicked in by a bunch of dirt farmers.

lol jist like russian collusion right? FBI is an arm on the DNC. Nothing they say can be trusted.
Also, what does that mean? More canadians and Europeans flood our media with trump hate than russia. They do more to influence and interfere in elections than anyone else. We should seriously consider invading canada and taking them over. If they want to BS they way they do they can put up or shuttup.
