Trump should assemble a Special Team comprised of Kimberly Strassel, Chanel Rion, Ken Buck, Sundance, Tom Fitton, Gregg Jarrett, Lee Smith, Dan Bongino, Jerome Corsi, Jason Chaffetz, Michelle Malkin, David Limbaugh, and Devin Nunes for the next 18 months to produce a REAL report on what’s happened and what is going on.

It’s obvious that anybody connected to The Swamp is not going to drain The Swamp. Their job is to protect The Swamp against all threats, encroachments and revelations about swamp skullduggery and corruption.

Wow. Rolling Stone rolling over on the Horowitz report!

When Rolling Stone says the Horowitz report validates President Trump’s charges of “Fake News”, you know the Left is in big trouble.

Matt Taibbi typically plays it straight.

Taibbi is certainly he’s not fan of Trump, but he is a fan of some degree of honest journalism and realizes the entire Russia collusion story was BS from the start...

It’s Matt Taibbi. He’s incredibly far left but seems to actually be interested in the truth about this impeachment stuff. Sort of.

I’m surprised. I can’t believe this was published. It will be retracted by tomorrow.

There's a two hour conversation with Matt Taibbi and Joe Rogan recorded last month and available on YouTube Here.

He's no conservative, but is very thoughtful in his analysis of current events. I found it compelling to watch.

They keep calling it unreliable, undependable, unverified, etc.

It was a DELIBERATE and outright criminal fraud that the Democrats and FBI paid for and arranged. If a local police officer deliberately lied to get a warrant, the FBI would prosecute them and they’d spend a decade in prison.

Steele created the whole “dossier’ in his office, no Russians were involved except for his employee who was hit with fentanyl in the park in the UK with his daughter and they called it nerve gas.

The entire scam was a five eyes, CIA/FBI plot to support Hillary.

No, Rolling Stone is saying the FBI and CIA were duped by the Steele report, and that better procedures would have helped prevent that.

Total bullshit because it was THEIR operation through Orr and Fusion to coordinate with Steele and create it. Then they gave it to McCain who shopped it around. Then when it was published they used that as an excuse to treat it as real.

There was no mistake. The FBI deliberately stabbed America in the back.

No it won’t be retracted. It is meant to make the FBI look bumbling guys who were innocent rather than the plotters of America’s most recent coup attempt.

Tiabbi became PNG last year when he suspected the SHAM and what was happening to Trump. He stated (I am paraphrasing) that he lived in Communist/Fascist countries and that as much as he was politically against Trump, to live under a Totalitarian/Fascist regime or government was FAR worse a nightmare that he did NOT want the US to become.

I.e., echoing Barr’s interview - that government resources were used to spy on private citizens with NO/ZERO predication.

“‘Corroboration Zero’: An Inspector General’s Report Reveals the Steele Dossier Was Always a Joke”

We knew it for the last couple of years. How this collaborator Horowitz can say the Feds weren’t biased is mind blowing.

overall, it is a GREAT article, vindicating Nunes and scathing of the FakeNewsMSM.

That makes sense. Yes, the FBI is full of a bunch of dunderheads. While this is true, they are a bunch of dunderheads that have it in for President Trump.
