IRT your 52.
According to press accounts, the FBI started investigating Trump in June 2016 and probably had some form of the dossier in hand when they were turned down on the first FISA request. After increasing the paperwork stack, they went back to the FISA court in October and were granted permission to monitor Trump. This probably included the a near final version of the dossier. There were supposedly 16 different versions of the dossier floating around. By the time McCain got his hands on the dossier and gave to the FBI, it was old news at the FBI and the MSM.
I know there are a lot of cynics on Freerepublic, but I personally really do believe that this is all about to turn on Mueller, Hillary and Obama.
Scandals reach a point where they can no longer be ignored.
We complain that Bill Clinton escaped justice, but if you consider the Media stronghold that existed when he was President coupled with an absence of the Internet, the fact that he was impeached is actually pretty incredible.
