Yes it is. All of this is about getting Donald Trump re-elected. From the timing of it, from comments even being made about an ongoing investigation. This is all about Trump and the Republicans trying to get the President re-elected. The reality is at this point, there is nothing that they can take out of context or release that is going to make any difference. Everyone knows that President Trump is a scumbag, he is either your scumbag or not your scumbag and people have made up their minds. William Barr was recently mystified that what he released hasn't been a bigger story..... you cry wolf enough, and people stop listening.
the FBI knew the source of the steele dossier was a russian agent, but used him anyway. this does not seem important to you?
Law enforcement doing shady ****. I'm shocked. Been happening to black people for years and still happening.
Who the **** cares? Really dude? Who cares about the Clinton foundation, do you care that Trumps charity had to shut down for illegalities? It's pathetic that you people think Hillary moves the needle anymore. Talk about desperate.
I agree that wasn't handled well and it's good thing the Steele Dossier was the sole basis of the investigation. Further as the Mueller Report and the Senate Intel report showed there was plenty of other evidence regarding ties to Russia within the Trump campaign.
No, dumbass... "The Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday released the final report on its investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election, finding numerous contacts between the Trump campaign and Moscow posed a "grave" counterintelligence threat." https://www.intelligence.senate.gov/sites/default/files/documents/report_volume5.pdf
if you read the report, you'll not that it says "almost all the reporting in the steele dossier remains unverified." which is a polite way of say it was made up out of whole cloth.
You wanna kiss Trump's ass so be it, he'll do anything to win including selling out this country. I've been critical of both candidates but Trump supporters just aren't capable of that I guess. Country is ALWAYS over party for me.
Good thing it's not totally based on the Steele Report. If your argument is that the Steele report is questionable you have a good argument. If your argument is that undercuts all of the ties between the Trump campaign and Russia and also that the campaign and members of the Trump admin didn't seek to cover it up or obstruct the investigations, then no.
No, not really. This Dossier, by definition, is just a collection of rumors. Its more of a broad spectrum to find jumping off points in a grab bag of investigation techniques. Investigators look at various streams of info and try to find patterns, and then investigate areas that seem to point to the same story to find evidence and convict. The Dossier was just one info stream, which might have or might not have pointed investigators in a particular direction. The Steele Dossier has by and large been mostly irrelevant, to both all the Russia indictments and investigations, so its verifiability is unimportant. We know what triggered the Russia investigation, its was completely and totally justified and resulted in numerous indictments and has since been confirmed by the Senate Intelligence Report. Can Durham find some lazy process issue to indict another lawyer, ala Kevin Clinesmith, maybe, but this hardly some grand conspiracy here. The "Steele Dossier" is a buzzword for dumb Trumpers who need something to latch onto to help them ignore the plainly obvious corruption at work here by the Trump administration. This is cult like at this point.
I have no argument here. I don’t know anything. I suspect Durham may know some things, and we shall see. I of course have suspicions, which I have shared in this forum. We’ll see if I’ll correct. I do find it interesting that so much energy is expended in disproving basic points of fact. this suggests that narrative, not truth, is more important to some of you.
