You're a low IQ troll. (alternate spellings of "your" or "ur" also accepted)

I gave you a chance to support your position, but you respond with your usual screech monkey bullshit. I guess you didn't have any links to the Fox and Freunds video. (yes I know, that's the German spelling) Here are a couple of relevant quotes from the DAG

Perhaps this is the quote you're misreading? What you're getting wrong is that justice charged several Russians with crimes that Americans were not then implicated in.

There’s no allegation in this indictment that any American citizen committed a crime. There’s no allegation that the conspiracy changed the vote count or affected any election result.

Now this one speaks a little more directly to your problem.

I want to caution you, the people who speculate about federal investigations usually do not know all of the relevant facts. We do not try cases on television or in congressional hearings. Most anonymous leaks are not from the government officials who are actually conducting these investigations.

The jury's still out bucko. I think you need to let the Justice Department do its job.

rooster, the point? sortagreen told you. Mueller didn't say it. Woodward didn't say there was no
conspiracy or no collusion either. Woodward said it was too hard for him to get evidence for it.

Get your brain cells healthy again, they need a bigger share of the reality pot.

Study: Right-wing extremists responsible for nearly two-thirds of U.S. terrorist attacks



Looks like we might need to build a wall around Donald Trump. And a cone of silence, too.

While global terrorist attacks decreased from around 17,000 in 2014 to 11,000 last year, in the U.S. we’ve seen a spike — and it’s not coming from Trump’s usual bugaboos.

From a study by Quartz, via The Southern Poverty Law Center:

[T]he United States has seen a recent surge in terror-related violence, with 65 attacks last year, up from six in 2006, it said.

In a related post last month, Quartz said of 65 terrorism incidents last year in the United States, 37 were “tied to racist, anti-Muslim, homophobic, anti-Semitic, fascist, anti-government or xenophobic motivations.”

The list includes the August 2017 incident at the "Unite the Right" rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, where a man drove a car into a crowd of counter-protesters, killing Heather Heyer and injuring many others. The suspect, James Alex Fields, was photographed earlier that day marching with neo-Nazi hate group Vanguard America.

This is further proof (as if we needed any) that Donald Trump’s Muslim ban and border bullshit are all about stoking racial grievance, not about keeping us safe. Ironically, his racially motivated rhetoric targeting terrorism (the scary foreign kind) is likely leading to more, well, terrorism.

That makes sense, because Trump is nothing if not a racist and a fuckup.

But here’s a nice colorful chart for him (sorry, Donny; only two colors):
