The ‘BS’ stream started with the NYSlimes ... they provided NOT one fact of the rumor they spread ... not one. Our ‘media’ is run by the prince of the air and they are more collectivist than any operation Stalin ever established.

Their one and only focus is to get President Trump out of our ‘White House’, and they will do whatever they can to make that happen.

None of the other news outlets are citing the Times as their source. They are citing their own intelligence sources. So... FSB or GRU? I’m guessing your not a mussie... but I could be wrong since your taking their word.
