A daily series, Connect! Unite! Act! seeks to create face-to-face networks in each congressional district. Groups regularly socialize but also get out the vote, support candidates and engage in other local political actions that help our progressive movement grow and exert influence on the powers-that-be. Visit us at Daily Kos every morning at 7:30 A.M. Pacific Time to see how you can get involved. The comment thread is fun and light-hearted, but we're serious about moving the progressive political agenda forward.
If you are new to the site or have been lurking, we invite you to join in the friendly banter here. Don’t be shy, say anything, it will be well received.
Disgusting new details about the Russian operation to help Trump in the 2016 election are coming to light. Just yesterday, we learned that Russia recruited two Nigerians to pose as African Americans from Atlanta and smear Hillary in every vile way imaginable, sometimes to rap beats.
This is ugly underbelly stuff, in terms of the mechanics of their act of war. Blech — we know they had fake American Muslims too. And fake gay people. Even fake dog lovers, for an as yet unknown reason. The mind reels.
That’s why Rob Reiner’s and David Frum’s new group, the Committee to Investigate Russia is so important. Their recent Morgan Freeman video is a must-watch and MUST-SHARE item, in my opinion (its release terrified the Russians):
We need more videos like this, from other actual, trusted and beloved Americans. They could be our best weapon against the ongoing Trump-Russia torrent of propaganda.
What about you?
What do you think we should do to fight the Russian onslaught?
