Jeb Bush DENIES BBC claim that he ordered the dirty dossier

Jeb Bush DENIES BBC claim that he ordered the dirty dossier - so if it wasn't him, who paid the shadowy research firm which started filth file two years ago?

Washington-based opposition research firm, Fusion GPS, was hired in 2015

One of Trump’s Republican detractors is said to have paid the company

Initially FusionGPS was asked to look into Trump's business dealings

But the research angle changed after DNC hacking emerged in June 2016

FusionGPS then contracted ex-MI6 officer Chris Steele's Orbis company

Steele had gold-plated contacts in Moscow from years of spying on Russia

Democrats took over funding the investigation into Trump

Former Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush has been forced to deny a claim that he ordered the outlandish ‘dirty dossier’ on President-elect Donald Trump.

The BBC initially named Bush, one of Trump’s opponent in the 2016 Republican primary, as having enlisted the services of Washington-based political research firm FusionGPS to look into Trump's business dealings.

FusionGPS later hired ex-MI6 spy Christopher Steele to dig further into Trump’s connections with Russia.

‘He (Steele) was compiling this report on behalf of initially Trump's opponent Jeb Bush,’ the BBC said on Wednesday.

The BBC subsequently said on Thursday its Washington correspondent Paul Wood misspoke. Bush's spokeswoman, Kristy Campbell, categorically denied any involvement between Bush and Steele. ‘It is absolutely not true that Governor Bush had any knowledge or involvement with this gentleman and his allegations,’ Campbell told Reuters by phone

‘It's nothing we've ever seen before.’

However, Bush’s camp have not specifically ruled out any contact with FusionGPS.

Another interesting point in this article is that it describes Steele as a “confirmed socialist” before he joined MI6.

“Not to mention Bush Sr. deep connections in the intelligence community (he was the former CIA director).”

......and not to mention Bush Sr. presence in Dallas TX, during the CIA’s murder of JFK.....

President Donald Trump is the first real threat to the ‘shadow government’ since the Bay of Pigs.

I am just so happy that Trump took this head on. Otherwise, we’d be hearing liberals talking about golden showers and that BS the next 8 years.

Other politicos would have denied it and the story would have never gone away. Trump took it head on.

“There must be very good money in selling fake info to rich, stupid, corrupt politicians.”

Money is no object..especially since it’s not their money to begin with.

Here’s another Jeb Bush “dossier” (steaming pile of shiite)— his “mentee”.... the pole-smoker ambulance chasing partner of Morgan & Morgan (lying trial lawyer thugs and friend of obamaumao— FL people will know whereof this speaks)— Charlie Crist! Finally made it back into office (with his multimillionaire “beard for a queer” wife)- as Congressman Crist! (what party?... why DEMO of course, supporting hitlery and obamaumaocare).

With the uniparty bushes and clintons— it all surrounds the drug runners of Mena, AR and cocaina cash to launder for real estate (and the uh.... panama papers and banks).

Here’s the web site, try not to throw up, and ... thanks Jebbie ole boy (mexicans are so fertile): https://crist.house.gov/

Like leaving the borders open and pushing amnesty did not tarnish them?

Every political campaign has some kind of dirt-digger in their employ. Especially Presidential campaigns.

There is zero possibility that Jeb’s campaign and PACs, which spent $140 million, didn’t do some dirt digging on Trump. Impossible.
