In the course of relentlessly not covering the Bruce Ohr non-story Katie Benner of the flailing NY Times swerves into creative fiction (my emphasis):
Ms. Ohr’s contract work for Fusion GPS on matters related to Russia has prompted an unsubstantiated theory that the origins of the special counsel’s investigation are tainted. And emails that the Justice Department shared with Congress showing that in 2016 Mr. Ohr was in contact with Mr. Steele and with Glenn Simpson, the founder of Fusion GPS, have only added momentum to that theory.
Republicans in Congress say those emails suggest that Mr. Steele and Fusion GPS, which was hired to dig up dirt on Mr. Trump by a wealthy Republican donor and later by Hillary Clinton’s campaign, worked inappropriately with the F.B.I. and the Justice Department.
They have also argued that the government inappropriately used the dossier, paid for in part by the Democrats, to apply for a warrant to wiretap Carter Page, a former Trump campaign official.
Paid for "in part" by the Democrats?!? Not even the Times has been reporting that - here is Kenneth Vogel from Oct 25, 2017:
The Trump Dossier: What We Know and Who Paid for It
...
Who paid for it?
During the Republican primaries, a research firm called Fusion GPS was hired by The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative website, to unearth potentially damaging information about Mr. Trump. The Free Beacon — which was funded by a major donor supporting Mr. Trump’s rival for the party’s nomination, Senator Marco Rubio of Florida — told Fusion GPS to stop doing research on Mr. Trump in May 2016, as Mr. Trump was clinching the Republican nomination.
After Mr. Trump secured the nomination, Fusion GPS was hired on behalf of Mrs. Clinton’s campaign and the D.N.C. by their law firm, Perkins Coie, to compile research about Mr. Trump, his businesses and associates — including possible connections with Russia. It was at that point that Fusion GPS hired Mr. Steele, who has deep sourcing in Russia, to gather information.
The WaPo has a similar timeline showing that Steele was hired after the Democrats picked up the Fusion-GPS ball.
The timing and funding of the Steele dossier is not controversial. How can the Times be mis-reporting this at this late date?
Right. Why ask why?
You know Porch he is guilty as hell. The problem is the the motive of the prosecutors. I'd be right there with you.

If these guys were spying on a Presidential campaign, do you think they would stop there? Imagine spying on a jury while a trial is going on. The possibilities are practically limitless.

These tidbits from the meetup remind me ...
my life changes when i meet new people who make me laugh, who pique my curiosity about how they came to be in the exact moments of our first meetings.
then there are the longer term relationships, like mine now with Paw (86 April last). i have known a lot of the major events that shaped his journey into the here and now.... but this here and now is such a source of wonder whenever i speak with him. from one of the worst barrios in Califas to a leisurely retirement in southern Virginia, he remembers practically what he had for lunch on December 19, 1951.
we speak nearly every day and he has allowed me to tape our calls. he reveals so much of his prior days (from 3 years old to 24 hours ago). how he sees thing is being committed to record.
don't worry. i won't tape any of y'all. my point is that HOW we traveled and HOW all of that is playing out in the here and now--- let's hope we have descendants who want to know those pieces of what is still a living history among many of us.
starting the process with my G-son Helio and G-dot Estella.
they know their Great Grandma was Navajo. but there they are living in Belgium. Daughter told them on a trip to see "buffalo" at reserve in Belgium about their Great Gran (whom they never met) and about their "Oso" (what they call me-- means Bear in spanish).
that lit a fire. they were on Skype upon their return to ask me if I could "talk like her."
i'm still learning the dialects but i can sing some songs her Paw sang and hundreds in other languages. Estella: "Do it now, Oso."
so sang a half-dozen.
Estella: "More, Oso."
Helio:"who taught you how to sing? Gran?"
Some. Some i picked up around here and there.
Estella: "Teach me, Oso."
it's on.

Sorry, watching CNN's Nightly Meltdown and that's tonight's meme...

they dress like something out of a Madd Maxx movie when they aren't wearing their blacktard costumes. the de rigeur "anarcho" tatts etc.
and their heads are half shaved. this was a male and two anemic looking females with nit-infested "dreads".
they were taking up the entire "order" spot in front of a coffee bar with their GI back packs and water bottles strewn about.
we had to get by them as it was our turn to order. big cheese turns around while the two adoring females blew us off.
he MOTIONS WITH HIS HEAD for us to go around.
College Man whispers to me with tight lips: "Cmon Dad...just go around."

Boss is talking to the groom and sees me walking by. “Hey man, have a drink with us!”. It’s the groom, and my boss. What choice do I have.
He hands me a glass with an unknown light brown liquid. I drink the shot. Tastes good, I think about asking for another. About that time, the heat started. And kept going. Ears turned red, and felt like they were burning. Little bit of sweat starts. I check the bottle.

A dose of Midsommer Murders, which I believe was (at least this episode) filmed in the rural Cotswolds, was just what I needed. I love that series for the detectives, the architecture, and the scenery. It's very soothing to me.
Regarding the press: one wonders how long we have been manipulated. I go back to the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, which for years I thought we LOST. I am not the only one, either. My best friend thought the exact same thing, and the only reason I learned differently was hearing a discussion about it on the radio when "We Were Soldiers Once" came out.
What else? How long has this been an operation? How long have they coordinated? Who pays them?

Iggy, they were originally just partisan braodsheets. On FB a friend links to complaints about the piss poor press going back 2 centuries. I think in the 50's we were lulled by TV and the NYT's reputation into thinking they were otherwise. The scrim has been lifted and we're back to an age where people again realize they have to read the press forensically, not passively.
