The Putin Telegram

Russia appears to be trying to stir up trouble on America's southern border. A century ago that kind of effort just pissed America off.

Oh?

U.S. National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster said in a speech last month to the Washington-based Jamestown Foundation that there was already evidence of Russian meddling in Mexican elections set for July.

"We've seen that this is really a sophisticated effort to polarize democratic societies and pit communities within those societies against each other," said McMaster in a previously unreported video clip from Dec. 15 that was posted on Twitter by a reporter with Mexican daily newspaper Reforma on Saturday.

That didn't work out well for the last European state that tried to stir up distracting trouble on America's southern border.
