Russia is at war with Ukraine. A tactic of Russia’s invasion, especially in Luhansk and Donetsk in 2014, was to send mobs to seize public buildings. The mobs were indoctrinated by TV and Internet disinformation, seeded with Russian agents.

This is how Trump attacked the Capitol.

Over 74 million Americans voted for a Russian asset, Trump. They have been indoctrinated to believe Democrats are a greater threat to the U.S. than aggressor Russia. American democracy is as unstable after 4 years of Trump as Ukrainian democracy was after 4 years of Yanukovych.

Most Americans don't know and don't care about how a mob was organized to seize the Security Service of Ukraine building in Luhansk or the Donetsk Regional State Administration Building. But they should. This tactic of Russia's global war against democracy has come to the USA.

#PutinAtWar is not a secret war, whether it's using Yanukovych in Ukraine or Trump in the USA. "Russia if you're listening…" is what Trump said in 2016, inviting Russia to attack American democratic institutions. Trump praised and encouraged the insurrectionists last week.

It is the nature of Russian imperialist warfare to attack weakness. Russia attacked the United State's weak election institutions in 2016. Weak national security allowed the insurrectionists to seize the Capitol. Weak news media allows Russian disinformation to spread unchecked.
