Here's a pretty good synopsis of where we are today in terms of the Russia investigation:

70% of Americans say Mueller should be able to look into Donny's finances.

"WASHINGTON — In a sign that the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election will remain a continuing distraction for the White House, the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, is in talks with the West Wing about interviewing current and former senior administration officials, including the recently ousted White House chief of staff, Reince Priebus, according to three people briefed on the discussions.
Mr. Mueller has asked the White House about specific meetings, who attended them and whether there are any notes, transcripts or documents about them, two of the people said. Among the matters Mr. Mueller wants to ask the officials about is President Trump’s decision in May to fire the F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, the two people said.
That line of questioning will be important as Mr. Mueller continues to investigate whether Mr. Trump obstructed justice in the dismissal of Mr. Comey.
No interviews have been scheduled, but in recent weeks Mr. Mueller’s investigation has appeared to intensify. Late last month, he took the aggressive step of executing a search warrant at the Alexandria, Va., home of Paul J. Manafort, Mr. Trump’s former campaign chairman. Legal experts say Mr. Mueller may be trying to put pressure on Mr. Manafort to cooperate with the investigation." NYT

I wonder if Reince is sweating bullets?

Trump destroys anybody he associates with, be it financially, ethically, morally or legally.

More from Trump's fanboys at The Daily Stormer after showing their pleasure for having not been criticized by Trump:

“And to everyone, know this: we are now at war. And we are not going to back down. … We are going to go bigger than Charlottesville. We are going to go huge. We are going to take over the country. … We learned a lot today. And we are going to remember what we learned. This has only just begun.”

The GOP is now the party of Putin and the KKK.

Time for them to grow a pair and dump Trump. He's a huge liability to their brand, as they well know.

Jennifer Rubin spells out several methods to make it happen.

So is it still official that Putin 'hacked the election', or are folk here now beginning to wonder whether that's all just a DNC ruse that was cooked up to divert attention away from the Wikileaks revelations?

Just for the record, I'm of the latter opinion.

Then you would be wrong.
