Russian aluminum company Rusal, partly owned by Russian oligarch and Putin crony Oleg Deripaska (who’s currently under sanctions by the U.S. government), is putting $200 million into a Kentucky aluminum mill plant to be built by Braidy Industries, a company that’s owned by Craig Bouchard, a buddy of Gov. Matt Bevin (R-KY). Rusal will own 40 percent of the aluminum plant.
Rusal is the same Russian company Mitch McConnell voted earlier this year to lift U.S. sanctions on. And Deripaska is the same Russian oligarch still under U.S. sanctions and the same Russian oligarch who had significant business ties to former Trump campaign chairman and convicted felon Paul Manafort.
The great Republican sellout to Russia is still ongoing folks. Their corrupt embrace of Trumpism is a virus, and it is now spreading to the states with the help of Republican Mitch McConnell.
If we get another shot at the ballot box, we better make it count. I say ‘if’ because if Trump sees things going wrong in the election, he might give us a ‘national emergency’.
America looses wars in a funny way. The Japanese failed to take Hawaii with Pearl Harbor.. but 50 years later have pretty well bought it. Russia failed in the Cold War.. but now has control of the government. Saudi Arabia sought to upset America by taking down the Trade Center.. now best buds.
It’s called the bloodless solution. When you want to avoid war with ’em, buy ’em. Dollars are cheaper than military conflicts and will always attract the weak and venal among the enemy.
Russia won’t be the ONLY foreign actor engaged in interfering with the 2020 elections.
Thanks to a massive financial effort by the Russians, most of the Republican Party as well as the Executive branch has bee bought and paid for, so a blind eye has been turned to any possibility of stopping the ongoing cyber attacks by Russians and other bad actors in ANY future elections. McConnell, specifically, and Congressional Republicans, generally, have aligned themselves with Trump’s Russian masters in their efforts to disrupt America’s electoral system.

Anti Constitutional Republicans are in favor of Russia hacking our 2020 election.
They can’t win without outside help.

The right wing cartoon voter is smiling because Moscow Mitch has Russia covering his back to insure Republicans win again.
