First of all, I didn't say anything about what we are "allowed" to discuss here.

I just think we should be honest with ourselves about what we're doing (by "we" I mean America, not HN). I remember what it was like when we were leading up to war with Iraq and all the intimations about Russia of late feel the same way to me. Lots of big accusations that are baseless but sound truthy.

As far as this particular piece of news, I would push back by suggesting that the Democrats blew the election by running a crappy campaign with a charisma-less DC insider that Americans mostly dislike.

Do I then get to accuse the DNC and everyone who pushed for Clinton against her primary opponents of colluding with Russia? I expect not.
