Ukraine bombed three Russian data centers. Automated Yandex internet traffic reportedly plunged 94%. Suddenly, reports emerged in the USA of less online hatred, division, and political hostility. Congress, how much of Trump’s hateful rhetoric is being amplified by Russian bots? How much of America’s political division is being manufactured by Putin’s propaganda machine? And is this why Trump is now easing Russian energy sanctions, potentially putting American dollars into Putin’s war economy? Is Russia helping Trump politically? Is Trump returning the favor? These questions demand an immediate congressional investigation, not more silence. Subpoena the records. Follow the money. Investigate Russian influence operations and every relevant connection to this administration. Congress, your failure to investigate would be yet another failure of your duty to protect American democracy.
