I think it started in the fevered imagination of Russia hating Ukrainian activist and Clinton associate Alexandra Chalupa.
Clinton associate Alexandra Chalupa was pushing Russia since at least January 2016.
Then came the DNC’s claims regarding their e-mail systems, investigated not by the FBI but only by Clinton associate Dmitri Alperovitch. Alperovitch is also a disgrunted Russian ex-pat. Major parts of his claims were later retracted.
Then came the DNI-DHS report issued by directors Clapper and Jeh Johnson. The report was based on Alperovitch’s claims. Future versions of the report reiterated the same material only more emphatically.
Clinton lost.
Then came the “Russia dossier”. A dossier Chalupa’s Russia hating Ukrainian activist daughter started hyping in October.
Then came a barrage of un-sourced fake news from WaPo and NYT, all alleging “Trump collusion with Russia”. The most recent report claimed Trump fired FBI Director Comey because he was getting too close with his “Russia investigation”. The source for the NYT article was revealed to be - drum roll please - the spouse of a top Clinton advisor.
It is all a lie. Lies, lies, lies, lies, lies. A mountain of lies, smears, and innuendo, all of which leads straight to Clinton.
