The anti-Russian propaganda launched into overdrive today with a two-for-one special.

First, the "CrowdStrike" cybersecurity firm run by an anti-Putin Russian Dmitri Alperovitch, alleged that the Russian hacking of the "elections" was similar to Russian hacking of Ukraine artillery units (CrowdStrike was the same company which immediately in the aftermath of the DNC hack also was the "experts" cited by everyone as evidence Putin was responsible for breaching the the Democrats' server).

Christmas Column, 2016

Dear Donors, thank you for your support in 2016. Although you have kept me working yet another year, I find it encouraging that there are some Americans who can think independently and who want to know.
