Just as nobody wants to admit how much Brexit (now Bregret) was influenced by Russia, Americans are not open to more information on Russian ties here because too many are still influenced by the Barr memo's characterization of the Mueller Report--which he intended to use to stop any and all further inquiries into this subject.
I think revisiting the Durham investigation with more vigor will show us just how closely tied to Russia the Trump campaign was, and my guess is that Santos is a tentacle of all that.
I will be looking to the same reporters who recently discovered that Barr and Durham hid potential criminality by Trump during the Durham investigation to pursue this topic further.
