In January, I wrote in these pages about the Democrats dossier on Donald Trump. Much of what seemed likely about it at the time has since been confirmed. No surprise there. Hillary Clinton has confessed. But what is surprising is the general lack of appreciation for the significance of this sordid episode.
Democrats have elevated delusion to an art form by insisting the funding of the dossier is irrelevant, and that what really matters is its unverified and unverifiable allegations of collusion between President Trump and Russia. Alternatively, the White House has asserted that the dossier proves that it was the Democrats themselves who were colluding with the Russians.
Neither perspective is accurate, of course, and the press is willfully ignorant about, and mostly disinterested in, its significance. The implications of the dossier are much more serious, and sinister, than these narratives suggest. It is time to put it in some context.
First, the dossier is espionage, not research. The Clinton campaign was paying a former British spy to get confidential information from Russian government sources. The fact that it was clumsy and amateurish does not change what it was, and the Russian government would have known all about it. As any spy can tell you, espionage is a two-way street. Do not spy on someone if you do not want to be spied upon. So the Clinton campaign is not just the victim it is also the instigator of Russian misconduct. Team Clinton asked for it, and by any historical standard, they deserved it.
Second, the dossier is the height of hypocrisy. It is exactly what the Democrats accuse the Trump campaign of doing....

It would be Russian espionage if the dossier was true and the result of Russian spying.
As it is, it is a piece of fiction that Steele either wrote himself or someone in Fusion wrote it and Steele put his name on it for a price.
Which then to me begs the question, where did the $9 million go since it didn’t cost $9 million to write up 30 pages of fantasy fiction. I think its evidence of further fraud and money laundering.
Hillary is incapable of playing it straight
She lies when she can tell the truth
She cheats when she can win without cheating
She steals when she does not need to
She always has some crooked scheme full of intrigues running rather than just doing the job and getting it done
Hillary does not have friends, she surrounds herself with groupies, sycophants and co conspirators
Her schemes constantly blow up in her face because she is completely incompetent at everything except scandal damage control and criminali cover ups, where she a savant
Everything grandma Clinton did makes sense if you remember one thing...they literally had NO concept that they could lose. They fully expected to hold the DOJ, the White House, etc.
So everything they did no matter how outrageous or illegal would be hidden forever.
