“Specifically, we have learned that the person who sought the meeting is associated with Fusion GPS, a firm which according to public reports, was retained by Democratic operatives to develop opposition research on the President and which commissioned the phony Steele dossier. “

Let me see if I understand. Both political parties run negative (dirt) investigations on opponents in the hope of politically destroying the opposition.

Some Russian crook say she has dirt on Clinton and son of Trump sets up a meeting to hear more. Learns it is all BS, the meeting shifts to something else and ends shortly. That is not horrible! That is politics.

Now for the fun part that the NYT will never cover, but hopefully the Congressional Russian investigation will.

John Pedosa of the DNC had real Russian connections. Hillary's uranium deal while SOS has real Russian money connection. Pedosa came up with the Russian hacking excuse for Hillary's loss.

Often people “project” emotional motives. That is they feel that others do the same kinds of evil things they do.

When the dust settles, it is clear that the Russian lady lawyer with ties to the Clinton campaign was part of a sting to discrete the Trump campaign but failed. And now the NYT is trying to breath fresh life into the charges. If this had any legs to stand on it would have been used by the DNC during the campaign.

This is a great example of the NYT inventing FAKE NEWS.

How about this: Perhaps if Hillary didn’t do anything that someone would have damaging evidence on, then there would be no chance for the Russians to have it.

That is what happens when a politician is corrupt, it allows foreign governments to use it as blackmail. I guess the NYT and others fail to see the irony.

I just tweeted all 3 “reporters”. Kept it clean. Just informed them they should start looking for a job.....and put the FAKE NEWS tag on all 3 of them. Least I could do.

Now, I wonder just who might be the unnamed source of this story of the secret meeting between Russkies and Trumpskis ??

Could it be an unnamed really tall white guy, who was coincidentally seen entering the NYT with his wife just a few weeks ago?

And did that really tall white guy who used to be a government employee hand over records from a secret government surveillance operation of a campaign of candidate for president?

Just asking questions here....

-- What will they do when this falls flat, too? --

There is always the "recycle old news" option.
