  #FromRussiaWithLev is a masterpiece, simultaneously uplifting/utterly horrifying. It was like an expert telling you, “Hey, your house is riddled w mold, but we can fix it.” Ew! Glad you took care of that, thx. But when you get up close, inside the wall, see the staggeringly disgusting mold, widespread damage, up close/personal, it’s a smack in the face, leaves you asking how much more there is, can fix it? Have to move? Tear down the house? GAA! It’s real folks, pay attention, fix it. #Maddow
