Collusion Never Dies!

Byron York presents a history of the Trump/Russian collusion charge. Byhis telling it rose during the summer of 2016 from the fog of the Clinton campaign, aided by briefings about the Steele dossier given to Clinton campaign officials.

In the days leading up to the Democratic convention, the Clinton campaign and its allies in the press saw Russia as a potentially valuable weapon for attacking Trump. On July 20, the New York Times' Andrew Rosenthal wrote a column headlined "Is Trump Obsessed With Putin and Russia?" Two days later, Rosenthal's Times colleague Paul Krugman wrote a piece entitled "Donald Trump, the Siberian Candidate" in which he asked, "If elected, would Donald Trump be Vladimir Putin's man in the White House?"

That same day, July 22, Wikileaks released emails from the Democratic National Committee. Two days later, on the 24th, Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook went on television to claim that not only was Russia behind the hack — that was later proven true — but also that the Trump campaign was in league with Russia.

"Donald Trump changed the Republican platform to become what some experts would regard as pro-Russian," Mook told ABC News, referring to a just-published Washington Post story that reported, incorrectly, that Trump aides had weakened the portion of the GOP platform regarding Russia and Ukraine.

"He has praised Vladimir Putin," Mook continued. "It's troubling."

What did Mook know and when did he know it? Steele's info was being passed to him or his team:

According to Russian Roulette, the book by reporters Michael Isikoff and David Corn, Steele sent the first installment to Fusion GPS in June 2016. Fusion, in turn, "gave Steele's reports and other research documents to Elias," according to a Washington Post account. And Elias briefed the Clinton campaign.

"We were getting briefings that were put together by the law firm with information," Mook recalled in an interview with CNN in late 2017. "So our internal team was presenting information, our lawyer was presenting information, you know, and we — and we sort of learned things in pieces."

So as Clinton and her aides pushed the collusion narrative, with the help of an enthusiastic press, campaign officials were also being briefed on the newest, freshest allegations from Steele.

The problem, of course, was that the allegations were not true. Steele also gave his reports to the FBI, which tried to verify them "line by line," according to former FBI general counsel James Baker. It did not succeed. Nearly three years later, the Mueller report failed to corroborate any of the dossier's serious allegations. It was wrong at best, a fraud at worst.

Hmm, so Team Clinton was peddling false anti-Trump info they had, through cutouts, bought from Russian government sources. Troubling? Troubling!

And what about Steele's information? John Solomon of The Hill has more bombshells:

Multiple witnesses have told Congress that, a week before Trump’s inauguration in January 2017, Britain’s top national security official sent a private communique to the incoming administration, addressing his country’s participation in the counterintelligence probe into the now-debunked Trump-Russia election collusion.

Most significantly, then-British national security adviser Sir Mark Lyall Grant claimed in the memo, hand-delivered to incoming U.S. national security adviser Mike Flynn’s team, that the British government lacked confidence in the credibility of former MI6 spy Christopher Steele’s Russia collusion evidence, according to congressional investigators who interviewed witnesses familiar with the memo.

We should wait patiently for the Inspector General report on this but it certainly seems that Team Clinton and the DoJ were colluding with Russia (based on their use of the term vis a vis Trump) or were duped by the Russians. Certainly, the Russian scheme to spread chaos and confusion exceeded expectations.

Iggy @ 11:13

My first chance to sit in front of my PC today so just now getting the chance to respond to you.
Not because I have lost quite a bit of respect for some people here in their dealings with you, though I have.
And not because defending yourself is wrong.

I'll go out on a limb and bet there is a high correlation that the people you have lost quite a bit of respect for are the same people who routinely engage in unprovoked hostility towards me. If one thing positive comes out of your post today is that they will come to understand the error of their ways.

In response to your two suggestions that I should just "let it slide" for those who engage in personal attacks, I would like to point out a couple of things.

You make many good points [and many bad ones], but they are all lost in the pointless, stupid conflict that continues when you answer in kind.

I make it a point to not respond back in kind to the hostility directed toward me. If anything when I counterpunch most of the time I hold back with what I'm really thinking. When you get called a pussy, fool, idiot, mentally unstable, drama queen etc there are a lot of options available for me to respond in kind. Instead I prefer to go with subtle counterpoints as much as possible. I am a firm believer in a few things when it comes to political blogs like this. First, if you can't stand the heat stay out of the kitchen and second, if you like to dish it out, don't whine and complain when someone returns the favor. That is just cowardly and lame to me. Lastly, we are all supposed to be on the same team. We don't all have to have the same opinion on what is going on with Spygate. Just agree to disagree and stop making things personal.

You mentioned RG's congenial nature. He was a regular poster here long before I was and made a lot of friends. Prior to Spygate there wasn't any reason for conservatives, Christians, Trump supporters, patriots etc here to attack a fellow teammate. The real enemy were the leftists. When it comes to Spygate RG and I share almost identical positions on pretty much everything related to it. RG stopped posting here regularly for a reason. I could be wrong but I assume he got tired of dealing with the crap he was getting for having a differing opinion. The kind of intolerance I was seeing here from a few people wasn't really much different that what we see routinely from the Progtard leftists who are the real enemy. I will freely admit to having a problem with people who act like that so with RG gone I took up the banner and kept defending our shared positions.

People will either keep calling you names and insulting you in spite of your politeness, which will very quickly make them appear to be unreasonable shit-stirring creeps, in contrast to your demeanor, and lose whatever support they have as the hot coals of revealing they were the real problem land on their head.

That is ideally how this community should operate but I think you know that you are the only poster here who has called out the people who were "unreasonable shit-stirring creeps". As you pointed out to Maryrose later on in the day, the people who disagree with my opinions on Spygate appear to be blind to the hostility or maybe even condone it. I was getting pretty close to just saying screw it and start actually responding in kind but I am going to hold off on that. I hope your post opened their eyes and caused them to realize what they were doing.

Whatever you're seeing, he isn't dancing the tango by himself.

No doubt I share in some of the blame but I never start anything. I just respond. If I ever say something insulting, derisive, condescending, snarky, etc, rest assured multiple posters who disagree with me were the same towards me already. To answer Beasts from earlier the solution is if you don't like it don't act that way yourself.

Also this is in today's newsletter drops.

Democratising futures means creating new capacity among many more diverse people to explore and articulate their alternative and desirable visions of the future. It must create hope - enabling people to co-diagnose the issues and opportunities, build common ground and collectively imagine preferred futures. Investment, policy and collective civic action should then be aligned to help deliver these common visions. This is anticipatory democracy, not the extractive surveying of needs and wants against a narrow prescribed set of options that characterises many ‘public engagement’ exercises. Too often these are little more than PR activities conducted relatively late in the decision-making process.

Most people underestimate how malleable the future is. But using participatory futures methods can raise comprehension of its plasticity, and this is an important precondition for people to then act in new or different ways.

Anecdotal evidence from participatory futures exercises suggests they can lead to significant change for communities. But rigorous or longitudinal evaluations of these approaches are relatively few, so the evidence base is sketchy. The reasons for this are not clear. Perhaps it is the eclecticism of the field, the lack of clarity on how to evaluate these methods, or the belief of its supporters that the impact is self-evidentiary.

As part of our new research agenda into participatory futures, we want to address this challenge. We hope to identify how newer and more traditional futures methods can practically be combined to greatest effect. We want to understand the impact on the individuals and groups involved, as well as on the wider community. We want to know whether platforms for public imagination can help nurture more of the things we need: more inclusive economies and innovation, healthier community relationships, greater personal agency for individuals, and more effective civic society. is more.

She is a big part of this right now. She very likely has long accepted a whole lot of bad -or at least dysfunctional--behavior.

Be very careful about imposing your will here--like calling 911. You may end up living with consequences you will regret the rest of your life. These are the guys that kill their own kids to "show that bitch". This guy well could do the same to your Nancy, not just Debra.

Make sure Debra has the local domestic abuse hot line--that is a lifeline. And they best know how to deal with these victims, and how to get them to wake up, realize they are valuable, and deserve to be safe.

Jimnj, concur with amom. I understand it’s hard to seemingly “stand by” while this happens. But you can’t/don’t control this.

Ask your LEO buds what happens at a lot of “domestic” calls. Male has assaulted the female. Female calls 911. Cops arrive and start to cuff male. Female starts screaming at/assaulting cops yelling not to take him away.

Irrational, but that’s what it is. Injecting yourself into that situation is unlikely to help and could redound badly. (Same goes for Nancy.). Support for Debra (say getting her a list of shelters) and encouragement to her to change is about the best you can do IMO.
