    It means that you have to check the source on each individual article.

    It’s not like Daily KOS, where everything is automatically good.

    The single greatest Witch Hunt in American history continues.

    There was no collusion, everybody including the Dems knows there was no

    collusion, & yet on and on it goes. Russia & the world is laughing at the

    stupidity they are witnessing.

    Republicans should finally take control!

    is true though

    The dots that somehow lead us from talking about The Hill, and what good sources are, to Trump (and some bizarre "take control means take control" falsehoods).

    This article is several weeks old, but I found it interesting

    https://www.thenation.com/article/th...s-predecessor/

    5. “Russiagate” is also unprecedented. The ways it exacerbates the new Cold War are various and growing. Its multiple “investigations” increasingly imply that once customary relations with Russia may be “collusion with the Kremlin,” including financial ones. Similarly, anti–Cold War opinions are casually labeled “weaponized Russian disinformation” and pro-Kremlin “propaganda.” Not surprisingly, very few such opinions appear in mainstream American newspapers or on network broadcasts. (More dissenting views on official foreign policy appear in mainstream Russian media than can be found in their American counterparts.) Above all, perhaps, “Russiagate” has effectively paralyzed President Trump in any crisis negotiations he may have to conduct with Putin, no matter how existential. Imagine, for example, President John F. Kennedy so assailed as a “Kremlin puppet” during the Cuban-missile crisis. He would have been unable politically to make the compromises both he and the Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev did in order to end the crisis without nuclear war. However much US politicians and media loathe Trump, Cohen adds, they should fear the possibility of war with Russia more.

    6. And, also in sharp contrast to policymaking in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, there are virtually no anti–Cold War media, politicians, or politics in mainstream America today. Without effective opposition, including robust public debate, bad policy outcomes are more likely, even in democracies.

    This hush money payoff, and the situation around it,

    seems to add to the growing believability of a lot of the

    claims made in the Dossier.

    He has an MO and the one laid out in the Dossier seems to fit.

    Just trying to sift through the Simpson transcripts.

    So . . . Christopher Steele, ex-British spy, was contracted by Glenn Simpson at Fusion GPS to do opposition research on Trump, specifically to look into possible Russian ties (?). He was not told who the original client was. For all he knew the client could've been the Trump team itself. It's very common to do personal vetting to see what dirt your opponent might be able to find.

    He then outsourced much of the work to at least one other investigator. During the course of putting together what both he and his contractor(s) found into a dossier, he became so concerned that Trump might be being blackmailed by Russia that he independently took "the dossier" directly to the FBI.

    The FBI said they already knew of dubious Trump team contacts with Russia and appeared to not be all that interested in "the dossier". Steele was frustrated and thought they should be taking the information he gathered more seriously.

    Is that about right? Sounds like a movie plot.
