We didn't heed the warnings from Europe when this happened over there (some of the same techniques were used in Ukraine). Now that it has hit home, we still don't seem to be doing anything about it. I understand the administration is remaining in denial about this for fear it delegitimizes his authority, but his ignoring the problem does more to him in that regard than if he directed our intelligence community to act on this.

I just don't know what we, the citizenry, can do. We can't magically make more judicious information consumers out of everyone in the country.

Yeah you didn't heed our warnings indeed. I guess only thing you could do against it is vote. More and more these midterm elections turn out to be about the state of your democracy and your democracy alone. No matter who you side with, actually. You either believe the Nunes/Trump/Hannity story that Russia is nothing and FBI and DOJ etc. are all undermined by deep state conspiracy (then for the sake of the country you need to vote Republican), or you believe the FBI and all the other agencies and institutions and want the Mueller investigation to go on (then for the sake of the country you need to vote Democrat). Either way, US democracy it at stake and everything else is less important. Says me.
