Nobody believed them, they were clearly nonsense. But hey... Russians have been writing letters to the editors and trying to influence this stuff since I first started studying cryptology in the Navy and long before that as well. This is, quite literally, nothing at all new. The only difference is now the left thinks people are stupid enough to believe that it is new and that it helped Trump.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    The new stuff is the willingness of so called representatives allowing an international crime syndicate to infiltrate and corrupt the government of the USA in order to fuck over its very foundations. And a special shout out to Citizens United and if you were not already worm's meat Scalia, I would happily tell you to drop dead!

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Your knowlege of world history appears to be negligible and uninformed.

    Soviet communists despised democratic socialists, and went to extraordinary measures to arrest and execute them.

    Democratic socialists and Russian liberals were among the first to take up arms and resist the communists after the October 1917 coup -- while conservative landed gentry and aristocrats fled the country in a panic.

    European and American democratic socialists have never advocated for totalitarianism, the abolishment of democracy, nor the arrest and imprisonment of opposition political parties.

    I suggest finding a source other than Rush Limbaugh for information about Russian history.

    Bernie spent his honeymoon in Russia. They are just thanking him for doing what no other American in his right mind would do.

    Notice how Trump's administration warned Bernie about this rather than colluding with Russia to stage a hoax and frame him, doctoring evidence, lying to federal judges, and illegally spying to make him look like he's guilty of colluding?

    THAT'S the novel concept here.

    Your eyes and ears see and hear differently than the rest of us then. The press is the enemy of the people? "Deep state"? Advocating throwing journalists and political opponents in prison? Admiration and praise for despots like Erdogan, Putin, Duterte, etc. ?Isolationism and nationalism at every love-me-long-time campaign spectacle? Disregard of the Constitution? Using appointed govt. officials as his personal attorneys? Using his personal attorney as a "fixer" in dealings with foreign nations? Using the very office of the Presidency to cash in with his personal business holdings? Appointing family members to government positions and forcing the intel agencies to give them top secret clearance?

    Imagine for a moment if the individual doing these things was named Obama. How would you think about him then?

    Mr Sanders, clearly, is far and away the best candidate, but I think the key thing is to chuck out this fat senile clown, Trump. The alternative looks to be a very, very nasty dictatorship. Find the one who can win!
