1. Frankly I will be surprised if Congress does anything

at this point, how about you?

[DonViejo]

2. Agree; they are too stunned and afraid to do anything or, in the case of the Dems...

powerless to accomplish anything of significance.

5. Maybe for now...

But any Republican in office who has in any way, shape or form knowingly accepted money that actually came from an original Russian source has to be VERY concerned if the Democrats take the house in November.
Imagine the hearings and what may come out of them.
Provided, of course, the Democrats don't decide to "put this behind us and move forward!" Bullshit. This time is personal!

3. Deflect and Distract

Too many Republican Congressionals and even some Republican Senators are too deeply implicated by accepting money probably indirectly through the NRA or others and are REALLY worried about their and their family's futures.
I expect distraction to a point we've never seen before. Take the emphasis off this.
And I wouldn't be surprised if some man-made catastrophe happened to take public attention away.
Wouldn't be the first time.

4. You're probably right...

6. Just more words, we throw up our hands but we do not impeach
