A Skeptic’s Guide to the Russiagate Fixation
https://www.thenation.com ^ | march 12 2019 | A Mate

Robert Mueller has yet to allege collusion, and Democrats who accuse Trump of being a Kremlin conspirator are silent when his policies escalate tensions with Russia.

To date, Mueller’s numerous indictments and voluminous court filings have not accused a single American of collusion with Russia. And, tellingly, prominent media and political voices, who have spent two years raising expectations that Mueller will find collusion, are now quietly moving the goalposts.

If this is the most damning evidence that the Democrats’ top Russia investigators can adduce, it is no wonder that the bipartisan Senate Intelligence probe has “uncovered no direct evidence of a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia,” as NBC News reported last month. And amid rumblings that Mueller is wrapping up his investigation, it is also no wonder that Schiff and others who have ceaselessly promoted the Trump-Russia collusion theory are preparing their audiences for a letdown.

The nothing-burger called Russiagate. Democrats and fake news have been allegeding Trump colluded with Russia to get elected.

This is what they spent two years looking at and have come up bubkis.

They intended to use it as a stalking horse to get rid of Trump - except the evidence for it never existed.

Its a scandal this wretched travesty was taken seriously in the first place.

No, it stands for the "N" in The Nation, the site where you got this article.
It follows the last sentence in their articles.

Not too bright, are you.

It also stands as a reprimand of your use of left wing sources.
You'll probably come back with some "I was only posting it to show what the other side was thinking" diatribe in response to this reply.

I guess I'll see if that assumption holds true or not.

The Nation is VERY left wing, so this admission that there is nothing to the "Russia, Russia, Russia" situation is major.

Remember the stories about how Mueller had obtained hundreds, or even thousands, of indictment forms?

30,000 sealed indictments, from Huber in Utah?

To date not one conspiracy crank from the knitting-circle can prove there are 30,000 criminal indictments with the names of the coup plotters on them.

Because its factually incorrect, a Big Lie.

Jim bans left-wing sites all the time.

If he disagreed he would have banned it.

You lose, again.
