“The inspector general has no idea where it came from. I mean, of course on its face it said it is coming from the White House,” Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md, a member of the House Oversight Committee said. “There is a series of folders which all come from Trump hotels, so folder after folder that says Trump hotel. Now, I haven't had time to thoroughly scrutinize, but it is a packet of propaganda and disinformation spreading conspiracy theories.”

The MSM-Democrats just spent two and a half years peddling a conspiracy theory 24-7 that then went up in smoke.

The gall of these people is unbelievable.

I have lost the plot on all of this.

All I know is that Biden confessed a crime and no one wants to talk about it.

if Ukraine is now a ‘conspiracy theory’ then why Mueller at all?

I gotta laugh over the “Trump Hotel folders” - two meanings and one of them is - we didn’t use any govt-issued file folders or pens for you all to whine about lololol

It’s informative that the ‘RATS want to discredit the information as “conspiracy theories”. It must be VERY damaging to the ‘RAT Russia-Russia-Russia operatives.

The Hotel folders thing was weird to me. What’s the other reason other than no govt property used.

from the article

A separate Democratic source told ABC News based on the information they were presented, the documents appeared to be sent from the White House and to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and the State Department, and that it contained a bunch of Trump hotel folders with notes from interviews that took place at the offices of President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, with various Ukrainians.

Another source in attendance described the meeting as “very unusual”

They are not going to report on the substance of the briefing.

It was secret.

And it does not fit their current narrative.

Therefore will not be leaked.

So the way I see it the IG said "Okay, here's what we got and here's what we're investigating" and they lay it on the table. And the dem runs out and says "They got a bunch of lies and conspiracies.".

It's happening. Dems are going down.

Amber Athey @amber_athey · @DailyCaller

The packet was apparently given to Pompeo this spring in an attempt to undermine the US Ambassador to Ukraine. It was then passed along to the IG in May, raising questions as to why this was presented as "urgent" now.

Amber Athey @amber_athey · 54m Sources say some of the articles in the packet were from The Hill's John Solomon, who has written extensively about Ukraine (and particularly Democratic involvement there). Amber Athey @amber_athey · 53m This also undercuts the reporting of other outlets, who claim the briefing today was going to be about retaliation against State employees who cooperated with Dems impeachment investigation. Amber Athey @amber_athey ·

52m To summarize: Dems went into the briefing expecting impeachable information. Came out with articles (which they call conspiracy theories) about their own party's connections to and pressure on Ukraine. Brutal. https://twitter.com/amber_athey/status/1179520588056014850

Yeah, and if "no one wants to talk about it," it didn't happen.
