The Russians haven’t loomed so large as a sinister hand influencing the course of American society since the Red Scares of the 20th century.
Then, it was largely the Right that warned of Russian infiltration; now it is progressives who see Russians altering the course of American history through dark manipulations.
There’s no doubt that Russia meddled in our election in 2016 and is attempting to do so again. But the Left’s overwhelming focus on Russia has taken on the trappings of a conspiracy theory with a comforting monocausal explanation for everything: Russia did it.

Manipulations by Globalist Marxist Communist American citizen traitors to our Constitution and Bill of Rights is the biggest threat to America. Look to the majority of employees in all governments, media, education, entertainment, for the spears. We know where the tips are. The Globalist One World Government of Marxist Communism which the Globalist Marxist Communist calls A New World Order.

The dems/deep state/BO administration spying and lying in 2016 and beyond are FAR more of a threat than a pathetic Russia whose efforts are limited to disinformation and recently threatening emails from the "Proud Boys". I have been getting almost daily calls, in badly broken English, saying that my car warranty on my 20 year old vehicles has expired and I need to buy coverage from the caller. If the information sounds stupid, it is. This is the level of "threat" that the Russians are.
NOTE: the Russians DO NOT, and are highly unlikely to EVER have any access to your actual vote. They are constrained to providing false information, just like the dems and some Republicans. It is hugely more likely that the dems will ballot harvest false votes than the Russians will get access to change even a single vote. Dem vote "management" is a far greater threat that foreign "interference".

Using the word "Russian" is like using the word racism.. It scares people and that is the main goal of the Communist Party which controls the Democrats these days.

When it comes down to survival the Russians might just want to be on our side against China.

I can just picture the average Russian reading what the dems say and laughing at how stupid it sounds. Wow! Those idiot Americans think all we have to do is sit around and think of ways to disrupt their election! As if we don't have enough troubles right here at home!

There are more communists in Washington, the other Washington, Oregon, New England and Hollywood than there are in Russia. Instead of adding more states we need to do some pruning on what we already have.

Any thoughts on the election, Rich? After all, we're two weeks away from deciding the future direction -- and possibly the fate -- of our country. Are you leaning one way or the other between Biden and President Trump? Maybe your plan is just to ride this one out and hope no one notices that what used to be America's leading journal of conservative opinion can't decide between "yes", "no", and "maybe" during the most important election we've ever seen.
If that's true, you really shouldn't publish an article attacking President Trump the night after the debate on October 5th over the issue of health care. After all, if we had listened to the idiots at National Review, we would have had Hillarycare in 2016.
Rich Lowry and the rest of the Never Trumpers are the Lost Boys of American politics. They live in their anti-Trump Neverland, playing their vicious back-stabbing games, and resolutely refusing to grow up. Adults have to make choices. Responsible adults make hard choices, acknowledge errors, take responsibility for their mistakes, and do everything in their power to make amends. Rich Lowry has done none of this. He is a political man-child playing a grown-ups game.
The Trump conservative revolution needs infantry, not infants.

Russians love democrats. They are birds of a feather. Communist. Heavy-handed government control of the citizens.

Anyone ever seen the great comedy movie called The Russians are Coming, The Russians are Coming? That same kind of hysteria is what the current situation reminds me of. The Russians prefer democrats in office, and that is who they collaborate with. Democrats and corrupted RINO's like Wray. Claiming the Russians are hiding behind every bush, door, tree and under desks is just democrats way of diverting our attention from the real evil at play. Hillary, Obama and Soros.

The Democrats are just using the Russian scam to cover up their wrongdoing.
