"The key takeaway from this NYT article is the beginning of the public defense narrative for the DOJ/FBI small group. They are starting to position themselves as victims of false information delivered to them by the CIA and Intelligence Community."

"Apparently, this is the big picture defense they will use when the IG report drops."

They knew the info was false from the start. But Clinton was going to win and it was never going to be exposed. Oops.

This is weird - the mockingbird media is siding with the dirty feebs and getting ready to throw the CIA under the bus? Or are we seeing the commie faction within the media starting to go to war with the mockingbird faction?

Either way, if they start throwing each other under the bus, America wins.

The defense is also representative of what these reports will say: rogue group. Of course we all know that this did not happen in a a vacuum. In fact Brennan tipped his hand last month saying: I must have been given bad intel. He did not say it came via ohaha. The inference some mail clerk came up with the rationale. So given he had bad info about trump what was he to do let him win. So he and his cohort comey thought it best to let the witch skate on her law violations.

And the small group also claims to be misled by pro wrestling.

The “impeachment” is a nothing more than a cover to distract from the 2016 Manafort frame and the CrowdStrike/Ukraine/DNC collusion. If Durham has been granted a free hand to pursue criminality where he finds it, can he begin investigating the corrupt origins of the “impeachment”?

So, here is the New York Times, the mouth organ of the Deep State narrative, admitting – albeit deep in the bowels of a very long piece – that the Steele Dossier was indeed funded by “Democrats.”
