Some say it involves the Repug Party - but what agencies of our government might have been penetrated?

Intelligence agencies? Military?

1) POTUS - 100% compromised, Kompromat up the ass or in the golden shower...whichever you prefer...
2) Speaker of the House - 100% compromised with campaign cash and complicity with this sordid affair...
3) Senate Majority Leader - 100% compromised with campaign cash and side deals...

That puts the SCOTUS (via nominees and approvals) ALSO in the pocket of Vladimir Putin.
In a nut shell, the GOP leadership is entirely owned by Russia and their propaganda arm, Pravda 2.0 (aka Fox) is carrying the water and disseminating the memes like good little psy-op soldiers...

We have already seen:

A) softening of US positions that conflict with Russian wishes in Syria, Ukraine, and Europe in general
B) a deepening rift between the USA and EU / NATO allies on strategic alliances and public policies
C) effusive praise of Putin from Trump on multiple occasions

Add to all of this the Trump family's personal connections and debts to Russian interests and it is literally as bad a situation as you could imagine.

Our country is not under control of American people and American interests...we are a satellite state of the Russian kleptocracy, period, full stop.
