as in Andrew McCarthy’s excellent piece,

“Proceeding from the erroneous premise that former British spy Christopher Steele is the source of the dossier information, these analysts posit the inarguable proposition that the government is not required to provide the court with all of the potential credibility problems of an information source.

Therefore, the theory goes, there is nothing untoward in the government’s failure to inform the FISA court that Steele’s information was bought and paid for by the Democratic presidential candidate, and then used in an application in which agencies run by the Democratic president sought court-authorized surveillance of the Republican candidate’s campaign.

Here’s the problem: Steele is not the source of the information. For purposes of the warrant application, he is the purveyor of information from other sources. The actual sources of the information are Steele’s informants — anonymous Russians providing accounts based on hearsay three- and four-times removed from people said to have observed the events alleged.

Clinton started the birther movement and never got credit for it.
Clinton started the Trump\Russia connection and never got credit for it.

So when I say Clinton I really mean Syd and Cody ?
