It makes all the sense in the world that the Russians would have (much) preferred a Hillary admin over a Trump-Pence one, given all she and Obama had done to help them previously, via their dangerously weak positions on the military, missile defense, the New Start nuke treaty, the Putin-loving Iran deal, and of course the Uranium-1 deal, where Hillary Clinton allowed the Russians to take control of 20% of our uranium production! This, at a time when we reportedly import approximately 90% of our uranium needs from outside the US.

The Steele dossier should be remembered as John McCain’s defining legacy. Yes, he was a corrupt U.S. Senator and a failed presidential candidate.

But at the end of the day, what we should remember most about him was that he was a Russian agent working to undermine a U.S. presidential election.

Democrats (Hillary, Obama, et al) are the scoundrels, plain and simple. Congressional Democrats are trying to divert attention. Sorry, we’re too smart for that.

In other words, Hillary colluded with the Russians.

Barr replied. “I’m concerned about it and I don’t think it’s entirely speculative.”

That means he has evidence that it was part of a Russian disinfo campaign.

I’m less worried about what the Russians did than the involvement by our so-called allies...

Maybe. But why would I NOT expect Russia (or China, or many other foreign entities) to try and muck around with our election process? Or try and hack 'secret' information? - Which is why important State documents are supposed to be always kept using the latest security protocols - and those that flippantly disregard these rules should be punished.
I'd expect these foreign 'competitors' to seek advantages wherever they could gain one (e.g., sowing descent in our Country).
The problem was with the alleged Americans who broke all kinds of laws to gain political power - at the expense of upholding the United States, and the Constitution. Spying, and actively running a coup, in an attempt to overthrow an election, is the real crime. Those parties need to be punished.
I couldn't give two bits about Russians and Chinese intelligence playing their games. That is expected. Many members of the FBI, CIA, Media, State Department, etc - need to pay for their crimes against the Nation.

If Russia had a hand in the Steele dossier, that would imply that Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the DNC either worked with Russians or were duped by the Russians in their disinformation campaigns.

Hillary's campaign was not duped. She was already bought and paid for by Russia--of course she worked with them to fabricate dirt to use against Trump.

The best election ever, gets better each day when AG Barr reviews/discusses the legal realities and not the DNC/Mediot BS!

Soooo... The Russian Collusion Hoax was disinformation fed by Russia? You’ll never be able to get a liberal to wrap their mind around this one.
