The Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee on Friday released newly declassified documents that they say “significantly undercut” the “reliability” of the infamous Steele dossier from the Russia probe, as well as the accuracy and reliability of the factual assertions in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants against former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.

Steele authored the unverified anti-Trump dossier of claims about alleged ties between Donald Trump and Russia that served as the basis for FISA warrants obtained against Page.

Every time Trump said the word “witchhunt”, the “fact checkers” counted it as a lie

When they knew damned well it was true

Evidently, a few Republican senators are still conscious and breathing, albeit barely.

Oh, for heaven's sake, The Daily Caller identified the 'sub-source' as Sergei Millian, a Belarusian businessman, connected with Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska.
Sergei Millian

Much fog can be cleared from this posting by my post yesterday.
