  1. If those guys (or girls?) would identify themselves, I’m sure Biden & Company would provide them with a State Dinner to try to appease them.

    (What’s the old adage, a liberal is one who feeds an alligator, rather than killing it, hoping it will eat him last?)

    1. Oh Bob, give it a break. Unlike Trump’s four years of appeasing Russia, President Biden quickly expressed his view that the hack originated in Russia. And most of us who are grounded in reality comprehend that such international crimes which originate there are blessed by Putin himself.
