it happens to be one in a series of ten paintings that I did of Ian and the band. I didn't know you liked painting. What exactly did you use (paint type, and art surface)?

I don’t know enough about that to comment, but it certainly is possible. Here is the Mueller Report. It details the investigation on Russian interference that led to the indictment of 13 Russian operatives: www.justice.gov/storage/report.pdfHere is the indictment of the Russian operatives: www.justice.gov/file/1080281/downloadWorth mentioning as well, the Americans who were indicted in connection to Russian interference: PAUL MANAFORT — Chairman Trump campaign — Convicted 7 1/2 years in Prison RICK GATES — Deputy Chairman Trump campaign — pleaded guilty, sentence pending GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS — Trump campaign adviser — pleaded guilty MICHAEL FLYNN — Trump National Security Advisor — pleaded guilty, sentence pending ALEX VAN DER ZWAAN — lawyer for Manafort and Gates — pleaded guilty RICHARD PINEDO — Trump campaign — pleaded guilty SAMUEL PATTEN — Political operative — pleaded guilty ROGER STONE — Trial date set for November. 5, 2019 If you don’t have time to read the Mueller Report, here is a piece from Time magazine that distills the issue: time.com/5573537/mueller-report-russia-election-interference/================== … Mueller’s report builds on previous disclosures that Russia had canvassed U.S. election systems looking for vulnerabilities. In Sept. 2017, the Department of Homeland Security told 21 states that hackers had targeted their voting systems. One Mueller indictment from July 2018 indicated that Russian hackers in June and July of 2016 very likely hacked into an unnamed state and stole information related to 500,000 voters. (State officials in Illinois later acknowledged an intrusion by Russian actors, though they said the number of voters whose personal data had been compromised was 76,000.) The indictment also indicates the hackers poked around in counties in Georgia, Florida and Iowa. A Joint Intelligence Bulletin released last month from the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security revealed the Russians targeted all 50 states.
There are plenty of signs that Russia shaped how Americans perceived the election. That’s why Kathleen Hall Jamieson, director of the Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, calls the foreign actors “discourse saboteurs” in her latest book, Cyberwar: How Russian Hackers and Trolls Helped Elect a President. The Russians not only injected divisive rhetoric into the public narrative via troll accounts on social media, Jamieson says, but also by stealing troves of email from the Democratic National Committee and top Democrats like Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta and then getting them amplified via mainstream media sources.
…
While it’s virtually impossible to determine how many votes these efforts swayed, the numbers needn’t be huge to be important. In Florida, Trump prevailed by 119,770 votes, or 1.3 percentage points. In North Carolina, Trump’s margin was 173,315 votes, or 3.6 percentage points. Trump wrested Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin into the Republican column by a margin of 77,744 combined votes. According to a July indictment from Mueller, the Russians knew exactly who the Clinton campaign needed to reach to win the latter Democratic strongholds because the Russians had her strategy memos. Russian-backed trolls targeted 36-social media campaigns at Michigan voters, 25 in Pennsylvania and 54 in Wisconsin, according to data provided to the House intelligence panel. …================== "Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing........."

They are too busy assisting the Kurdish forces in Syria that Trump decided to stop helping. I mean... someone has to keep ISIS controlled right?

Like most posters here, I’m sure tullabye would be fun to eat dinner with provided you weren’t talking about politics. I switched parties to vote for Yang in the primaries. I do think he has a small chance at winning the party nomination, but the best chance at winning the national election if he makes it there. I think biden and warren will have a really tough time in the presidential election. The impeachment proceedings will have to do a lot of damage to Trump for these two to win.
Harris has peaked. Tulsi kinda ended Harris.Either way, I hope Andrew’s nba prediction comes to pass.

What would it have taken for Yang to beat Biden?

To me, I wouldn't call the Pacers a surprise team. I expect them to be good. I wouldn't be surprised if they had the best record in the East. facepalm
