Pretty big news...funny thing is how it's hard to find on some news sites.
(I'm going to check out Huff Post's (lib version of InfoWars) page. This ought to be interesting...if it's mentioned at all)
The story came out in the Washington Post. Come on with this nonsense.

Also Huff Post as the lib version of InfoWars???? I don't read the HP but that's not a reasonable comparison.
 
I'm aware it broke in the WP. Try finding it on yahoo news, for example. If it's there, it's definitely not a priority. Granted, my wretched tech skills could absolutely play a role....no question.
If you don't read the HP, how can you claim comparing it to InfoWars is nonsense? Here's my take: they're BOTH nonsense- radical "media" sources with a skewed angle and an agenda. I read them both, entirely from a sociological viewpoint.
The dossier is on of the top stories on Yahoo news when I open the site - one of the six with a picture.

The editorial standards between HP and InfoWars are fundamentally different.

HP presents biased news, sort of like Fox. It also blends news and opinion like a cable network.

InfoWars runs totally unverifiable or absolutely false conspiracy nonsense designed to make you buy Alex Jones's products. HP would never run a story as ridiculous as IW's claim that Sandy Hook was a "false flag" operation.
 
Hehehe...
Was waiting to see how long you called me out on that one. Alright! Drudge Report! And I ain't budging an inch.
You may not believe this, but I look at Drudge more than I look at HP. Although HP's Congressional reporter is very good and you will learn some things if you check in on his work.
 
Collusion!
I don't suppose any of you saw the part of the report that says a REPUBLICAN originally hired this firm to do 'oppo research' on Trump during the primaries. When Trump got the nomination he no longer had a reason to continue spending his money on it so the DNC and the Clinton campaign picked it up. They did NOT tell the researchers what to look for, Russian or otherwise, just to keep doing the research. Not their fault the Russian connection showed up in the research. Maybe you'll recall that Trump and all his folks denied any meeting with Russians until it was obvious there had been such meetings then they lied about what they were called to the meeting for, until the truth came out about that too. :rolleyes:
 
The information 3R just shared came out WEEKS ago. How is this just now a big deal????? Another distraction by Agent Orange.

Who was the Republican ???? More unverified lies from "sources" who won't stand up in front of a camera on the record and tell their story.

How would Hillary Clinton have known that some shadowy Republican had hired someone to dig up dirt on Trump??...and why funnel the money through a third party to Fusion and report it as expenses for legal services??

Doesn't pass the smell test

I don't know but I'd bet the law firm getting paid for this research approached the DNC/ Clinton campaign after the pub that didn't want Trump to be the nominee gave it up and told them they have lots of research on Trump they might be interested in. Totally a guess on my part, I have no idea how that stuff works. I kinda liked the days when a candidate stood up to tell us what he was for and against, not how awful the other candidates were. :(
