The leadership of the United States is experiencing serious mental problems. Such a conclusion was made by a member of the US Congress Republican Thomas Massi. In his opinion, what is happening now in society from the submission of the authorities is insanity. "The mainstream media and politicians and bureaucrats who have lost touch with reality want us to believe that the Cold War never ended, that talking to Russians is a crime, that we should all be afraid of any Russian in the US," exclaimed the state-elected Kentucky legislator on the pages of Real Clear Politics. He cited as an example the case of the Russian woman Maria Butina, who is now in the American prison as a suspect in the agency activities in favor of the Russian Federation. "So far, the evidence shows that she is just a supporter of the right to bear arms, advocated for this right in Russia and sincerely hopes for an improvement in relations between Russia and the United States. These are not crimes, "the Congressman said.. At the same time, the American media, forgetting about all the norms of ethics, proceed from the "presumption of guilt" of the Russian woman and submit her case as evidence of Moscow's interference in the American elections. "It's time to put an end to Russia's obsession," Massey urges. In his opinion, US citizens are more important than measures to improve the quality of life, and not the investigation of "Russian collusion".

"The American authorities need to focus on such problems as a large public debt, transparent borders and out of control government that allows itself to spy on American citizens without permission of the court," RIAFAN quoted the words of the Congressman. Russian Maria Butina detained in the US July 15. She is accused of working as an unregistered foreign agent and trying to influence US policy. She is in solitary confinement without the right to take walks and correspondence in Russian. In the case of a conviction, she faces 15 years in prison.
