Washington (CNN)Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee helped fund research that led to the now-infamous dossier of allegations about President Donald Trump and Russia, a source familiar with the matter told CNN.

The source said the law firm Perkins Coie, as part of its representation of the Clinton campaign and the DNC, retained the intelligence firm Fusion GPS and entered "into an engagement for research services that began in April 2016 and concluded before the election in early November." The Washington Post was first to report the news Tuesday.

It’s their last shot at trying to take down Trump. They are going to say the dossier is true.

Well there is a Russia and there is a Donald Trump but after that I doubt if there are any more facts. Maybe that there are prostitutes in Russian. But that is about it.

Seems like I read after Fusion took the fifth before the congressional committee the committee subpoenaed Fusion's bank records. I believe a judge ruled the bank had to comply so I guess Team Clinton must have leaked the bad news to the Compost. I don't believe Hill and Bill have been in this deep of crap in their 30 year crime spree.

Hillary is reading modern history. Nicolae Ceaușescu was a Romanian Communist politician. He was general secretary of the Romanian Communist Party from 1965 to 1989, and hence the second and last Communist leader of Romania. He was also the country's head of state from 1967, serving as President of the State Council, from 1974 concurrently as President of the Republic,

Wondering if they paid for similar “opposition research” on the other serious candidates, Cruz for example?

They were all so brazen in thinking they would take Trump and this electorate down. From the locals all the way to the top was just hubris.
