Co-written by John Lewis and Nancy Pelosi?

The BBC has become the Guardian Broadcast Company.

Kremlin Candidate...

Well, I guess we shouldn’t vote for him then.

What the hell are these folks smoking, drinking, or shooting up?

Obama has done more to empower Russia than Donald Trump ever did. he ignored them in the Ukraine. he ignored them in Syria. He passed the buck to Trump and now the liberals feel that they're somehow entitled (shocking) to dictate how President Donald Trump will handle the problem. Sorry liberals, you're entitled to sit down and shut the **** up now. America says so.

You lost the house. You lost the senate. you lost countless state legislators and governors. You lost all your power so just sit down and STFU. America is no longer interested in what you have to say about anything. Your BS has been rejected. take the hint.

Don’t patronize hostile media operations such as BBC.

Obama, Clinton, and Podesta have been Kremlin Sock Puppets resulting in a transfer of technology and a huge amount of our Uranium in exchange for money and stock worth tons of money.

I agree. And I am hoping our Justice Department has even a decent memory. It doesn’t need to be long.

It’s The Express - not the BBC. It mostly reports the bias of the BBC’s propagandorama.

Its quite entertaining to watch the liberals turn against Russia, after decades of the lefty comrades tying to infiltrate every aspect of our society ,, Trump gets elected and they are so afraid of Trump, liberals cant retreat out of Russia fast enough with white flags surrendering their campaign to turn the US into a communist state... fascinating the power of Trump,if this is a preview of whats to come, its going be great 8 years !

Where the bias is originating from BBC — the operation to avoid.

I have no issue with The Express nor any other tabloid not committed to manipulating the political landscape.

Another indicator that the Trump Russia smear is being coordinated between elements of the British and American intelligence communities. The reporter credited for Trump: The Kremlin Candidate?, John Sweeney, previously did a piece on Romney during the 2012 election cycle, similarly titled The Mormon Candidate; so evidently he has a habit of seeking to influence American politics in a way that favors the Democratic Party. A review of this and his other investigative projects (which included going into Zimbabwe after Mugabe had banned BBC reporters, going into North Korea undercover, and investigating the Church of Scientology) gives one the impression that his job is perfectly suited to gathering information and distributing propaganda for British intelligence. The BBC has a long history of working with Britain's intelligence agencies through the Ministry of Information and Central Office of Information; the function of the latter was recently rolled into the Cabinet Office, so if this is a propaganda piece, I'd look for someone there handling Sweeney.

That's OK...

President Trump and PM May look like they may have a relationship like Reagan and Thatcher.

Screw the BBC !

Yes, in ‘business’ ventures. Interesting McMullin also attended the Wharton School. Worked at Goldman Sacks... Then worked on Romney's campaign and then hired on by Republicans on the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.

It was August 8th, 2016 that McMullin announced his candidacy for president because Trump was ‘unfit’ for the office...

Now was that not the purpose of this ‘dirty’ dossier to demonstrate Trump's unfitness? Then it seems to give the ‘dirty’ dossier gravitas it got shipped to Britain... and there were some in Britain none too pleased with Trump over the Brexit vote..

Then moves in lord McCain for the ‘kill’ of Trump by playing carrier pigeon across the pond, right to the CIA I mean FBI...

I believe that Ted Cruz had his own copy, which explains why he acted a jack-ass at the convention. Never mind how that lying Ryan attempted to dump Trump...

Good observation. I wonder if he and Sweeney might have crossed paths when Sweeney was making The Mormon Candidate documentary on Romney.

I found a tweet where Sweeney retweeted a recent McMullin post where McMullin said, “Trump’s Russian benefactors use white supremacist symbol to taunt America’s greatest ally from their London embassy. Russia is no friend”, followed by McMullin’s own retweet of a Russian embassy post. So we know Sweeney follows McMullin on Twitter.

... and McMullin is a confidant of John McCain. The two likely engineered the fake intel with the former MI6 agent Steele.

McMullin gave a TED Talk at the London Business School that was uploaded May 31, 2016. Sweeney is a graduate of the nearby (a few blocks away) London School of Economics (founded by the Fabian Society and used as a Soviet recruiting ground for years); when he went undercover in North Korea in 2013, he posed as an academic from the London School of Economics.
