Letter: Wittman complicit in destabilization of U.S.
printed in the Free Lance-Star Jul 28, 2017

Every day that Rep. Rob Wittman (R-1st) supports Trump is another day that he is complicit in the Russian destabilization of our country. The evidence is abundant and clear—the Trump campaign colluded with Russian agents to neuter the democratic election process. Team Trump conspired with a foreign nation to undermine the validity of our elections and put a puppet into the presidency.

Under this puppet regime, our State Department has been dismantled. Funding and staffing of almost every governmental agency has been attacked. This is advantageous to the Russians and disadvantageous to the United States. America's geopolitical agenda is in shambles.

The White House and the complicit Republican Party attack the common good in kicking millions of people off the current health care system, reducing access to the internet, and defunding EPA and other major departments of government.
While our security agencies investigate Russian hacking of our elections, Trump wants to form a “joint task force” on cyber security with the Russians and collect every state’s voter information. Is the fox in charge of the hen house? Assuredly, yes.

Wittman is not alone in his support of the traitorous Trump clan. He is joined by most of the Republican Party. That makes them complicit in the weakening of our government and sacking of our national safety net.
Rob Wittman deserves, at the very least, to be defeated in 2018. I would prefer that he be removed from office more quickly.
