Politico tacks left. This story explains the use of social media to push agendas, but the overall tone attempts to paint a picture of Republicans getting lathered up over 'deep state' concerns because the Russians are pushing it. Like millions of others who don't use social media, I can see the corruption of the Democrats is clear without Russian Twitter accounts telling me so. Politico is trying to paint a portrait of Republican manipulation in an attempt to minimize leftist machinations. Based on our beliefs, we all interpret stories differently. You see it as validation, I see it as deflection.

I popped in here just to say that corruption comes in BOTH red and blue, and anyone who only sees one shade is certainly incapable of objectivity.
