Just Breaking: The Real Russian Collusion

[Mountain Man]

It was the FBI and other Intelligence Agencies that first alerted the world to Russian Involvement in the 2016 election. This is not in doubt. What is being currently investigated by the Special Counsel is the degree of involvement, if any, by the Trump team. Trying to blame Hillary and the Democrats for the Russian interference is ludicrous (but typical), they were the victims of it.

Nope. It was Hillary who got the ball rolling on the second debate with her phony claim that "18 intelligence agencies all agree that Russia is totally hacking the election"... or whatever it was. Before that, nobody was was talking about Russia.

I have to wonder how long it will be before some of the leading Democrats start saying "you know, this whole Russia thing has just become a big distraction to the more important matters of our Country... why don't we focus more on ....."

Democrats being forced to admit there is no evidencereportsauthorized the saleraked in $145 million in donations from nine shareholders in Uranium One.

Meanwhile, the genesis of the Trump/Russia collusion claim lies in a dossier compiled by former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele. Despite the claims in the dossier being either thoroughly debunked or still without corroborating evidence, a special counsel, in the form of former FBI Director Robert Mueller, was assigned to investigate.

And while any claims of interference in the internal political processes of our nation must be taken seriously, what must also be taken seriously is the increasingly evident reality that high-ranking Democrats, including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, were themselves the instigators of the very collusion they now seek to obfuscate.

The infamous Steele dossier that set these accusations ablaze was assembled on behalf of Fusion GPS, a firm that specializes in political opposition research. So it would seem obvious that the best way to get to the truth is to have the principals at Fusion GPS testify as to their knowledge regarding collusion.

That has become very difficult, however, as lawyers for Fusion GPS CEO Glenn Simpson say he refuses to testify, invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. By its own admission, Fusion GPS lobbied for a Russian companyloaded with Clinton donorsat the direction of former FBI Director James Comeyleaked details of his conversations with President Trump for the purpose, by his own admission, of forcing the appointment of a special counsel to investigate Trump, recommending his buddy and former Obama FBI Director Mueller, who buried the initial findings.

Turns out there's fire behind that smoke after all - it's just on the side which had been hurling accusations with wild abandon earlier. The question is becoming "If Mueller follows the leads, and they go to to Clinton, will he blame Trump anyway?"

So, Obama was a pathological liar, but just WAY better at it than Trump.

Or that the press automatically assumes Trump is lying and immediately investigates and covers it as compared to Obama who they assumed was a saint and ignored it and covered it up.

Or both.

Wow! We are SO fortunate to have somebody who has an inside line to know exactly what the special counsel is and is not investigating!

Actually, it's not "trying to blame them" for the (alleged) Russian interference - it's pointing out that they may have the same dirt on their own hands.

The US Intelligence Community concluded, with high confidence that the Russian government engaged in electoral interference during the 2016 U.S. presidential election. A Jan.'17 assessment by the Director of National Intelligence stated that Russian leadership preferred presidential candidate Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton, and that Russian president Vladimir Putin personally ordered an "influence campaign" to harm Clinton's electoral chances and "undermine public faith in the US democratic process

Not surprising, though, that you didn't get that.

Sigh!

Or that the press automatically assumes Trump is lying and immediately investigates and covers it.

A reasonable assumption given that Trump is demonstrably a compulsive liar.

Pathetic!

Yes, you really are.
