Court Filing Confirms Fusion GPS Hired DOJ Official's CIA Wife To Dig Up Dirt On Trump

Check your sources. Both are extreme right propaganda sites known for peddling conspiracy theories.

Logical fallacy.
Check the veracity of the information they provided.
 
Another piece from the plot to Get Trump puzzle snaps in, with new dark money revelation

https://www.americanthinker.com/blo..._snaps_in_with_new_dark_money_revelation.html
Might we finally get to the bottom of the dark forces that used the state in their relentless attempt to dislodge newly elected President Trump? Based on a new report about dark money rolling into Fusion GPS coffers, former House Intelligence Committee chairman Devin Nunes, a California Republican, seems to think so.
A dark money group based in California contributed $2 million to The Democracy Integrity Project, the organization that has contracted with Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele to investigate President Donald Trump.
The Democracy Integrity Project's founder, a former staffer for Sen. Dianne Feinstein, has acknowledged to the FBI that the group provides information to the press, lawmakers and investigators.
Fund for a Better Future is the second Democracy Integrity Project donor to have been identified. George Soros gave $1 million to the group.​

TDIP was founded on Jan. 31, 2017, by Daniel Jones, a consultant who worked for Feinstein, a California Democrat, when she controlled the Senate Intelligence Committee. Jones has disclosed to the FBI that he hired Fusion GPS and Steele, the author of the anti-Trump dossier, to continue an investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
He also told an associate that TDIP operated as a "shadow media organization helping the government." Jones suggested to the associate, Adam Waldman, that his TDIP team planted several anti-Trump articles.​

"The Democracy Integrity Project" - democrats with integrity? Democrat "messaging" is designed to deceive gullible people into believing what they hear who will never go any deeper than the sound bite. Like "hope and change" we were almost destroyed by the idiocy of people voting for a sound bite.
"The new report signals that Hillary wasn't the only one possibly paying for this, it may well have been a deep pocketed array of other Democratic fat cats, none of whom wanted to reveal who they were." In a way Hillary was almost right, There is a vast Marxist Socialist Left wing conspiracy against Americans.
If this sedition and treason against the American people is as vast as we are seeing, why haven't we seen people swinging from the gallows of American Constitutional Justice?
 
The conspiricists are out and about again I see.
 

The Judicial Watch stuff is what I was looking for! Frankly, I wish I didn't have a ton of stuff on my desk. It's a 339 page PDF and on page 22 there is a summary of some kind of text conversation between Bruce Ohr and someone else. That someone else laments that if Ohr ends up "out" he'll need another Doj or Bureau contct that's been "briefed in" so that "our guy" isn't forced to go back home.

If Ohr and Steele weren't in cahoots I'll eat my hat.
 
When did I ever source an extreme left propaganda site? I am against all propaganda and will always point out when someone like the op is fanning the flames of a conspiracy theory.

Who believes in "Coincidences", a former staffer of Diane "I love my Chinese Spy Limo. Driver" Feinstein. How does a former staffer get to be in the position to become the money handler of the Democrat Integrity Project. That name alone must have taken years to come up with.
When I was a kid their was a children's show called Claude Kurshners Circus. They had a contest that ran for months to name the clown on the show. Everyday they reminded us that the end of the contest was coming and originality counted. Then finally the time came to announce the winner and the name of the clown. The winning name was "Clowny". Integrity just as amazingly stupid.
As I have always suspected, just follow the money! You will be surprised to see where it originates!
 
That is true on many fronts.

But there are real issues being discussed and debated as well.

Since Trump's election, there has been little serious debate, as too many conservatives have lost their collective minds....

It started with Gingrich, gained momentum when FOX News was created and started to thrive....W took continued the path of alternate reality...but actually maintained some sort of conservative logic in his practices.

With Social Media, conservative blogs and websites, that promote conspiracy theories, false facts, and hyperbole...... Trump took advantage, and now truly give these folks a voice and in their minds, legitimacy.

There are certainly extreme lefty groups as well.....but in comparison, it really is not close on where the crazy resides.

And how would you suggest solving that issue?

This video gets into the what is wrong, spefifically, and how to fix it.

I will summarize, but the video gets into the details.

Corruption and money influences congress today. They no longer listen to the people.
But, that is due to a corrupt system. The system needs to change. How?
Will the foxes put a lock on the hen house? Not likely.

It can be done by the states. Historically this worked for the 19th amendment and for marriage equality.

Please do not let an actress giving the message dissuade you from watching.
It is clever, gives specifics, and a bit entertaining as well. It is not partisan at all, unless one supports corruption, as that is what it addresses.

It runs just over 12 minutes...it is, worth the watch, no matter of party or ideology.

Problem is the dirt is not backed up with evidence. Witchhunt!
 
All I know is a LOT of people, just like me, have put ourselves through rigorous investigations and polygraph examinations in order to obtain security clearances to serve our country. And if it were formalized for politicians, rather than them hiring companies on their own, we would be more likely to ensure the fairness of the process.

I’ve done the same in the past. Question - how willing would you be to go through all that if you knew the information was going to be made public? How many people going through those background checks would do so if they knew their private information was going to be made public?

I definitely wouldn’t be willing to go through it if it was going to be made public. But then I have done some stuff that SHOULD disqualify me from holding elected office. ;). That said, I don’t think the whole thing needs to be released to the public, just whether or not they passed.

I don’t there’s a chance in hell that the results of that kind of investigation would not end up being released, not to mention the political nonsense that would ensue when you have the opposing party doing the checking.
 
Nothing it was all made up by Fusion GPS and the Russians. Which was used by scumbags in the FBI to get a FISA warrant to spy on Trump.

Putin stated that he wanted Trump elected and spent millions to help him. Fusion had nothing to do with Steele's dossier except paying him for the info. Much of the dossier has been verified as fact.

To conclude, we return to Carter Page, about whom there is a great deal in the dossier. We will not recount the details here because the allegations have not been corroborated in filings by Mueller’s team. The only nod at confirmation we have from an official source is a heavily-redacted memorandum from the House intelligence committee minority. In it, Ranking Member Schiff describes the FBI’s wholly independent basis for investigating Page’s long-established connections to Russia, aside from the Steele dossier, and emphasizes that the Justice Department possessed information “obtained through multiple independent sources that corroborated Steele’s reporting” with respect to Page.

As we noted, our interest is in assessing the Steele dossier as a raw intelligence document, not a finished piece of analysis. The Mueller investigation has clearly produced public records that confirm pieces of the dossier. And even where the details are not exact, the general thrust of Steele’s reporting seems credible in light of what we now know about extensive contacts between numerous individuals associated with the Trump campaign and Russian government officials.

However, there is also a good deal in the dossier that has not been corroborated in the official record and perhaps never will be—whether because it’s untrue, unimportant or too sensitive. As a raw intelligence document, the Steele dossier, we believe, holds up well so far. But surely there is more to come from Mueller’s team. We will return to it as the public record develops.

I don’t know, somehow all of Trump’s taxes didn’t get leaked from the IRS. There is a lot of classified information that would make previous administrations look bad that I have never seen make it’s way into the media. So it is possible, but I do think it would have to be run by an independent IG kind of body. I’m not saying there are downsides, but I think the upsides outweigh it.

The Steele Dossier: A Retrospective - Lawfare

Putin spent millions to help Trump. Prove it.

Fusion had nothing to do with Settle's dossier except pay him. Now that is a profound statement. Fusion was the pay master for Hillary and the DNC but that is not the beginning, the money from Hillary was first sent to Perkins Coie to hide the payment. Perkins then paid Fusion who paid Steele, who got the phony dossier from the Russians who wrote the dossier. And it was Steele who spread around the phony dossier to the press, FBI etc. It then landed on the desk of a FISA court judge to get a warrant to spy on Trump.

Much of it, most of it, some of it, a small portion of it, maybe there was none of it verified. Try producing facts.

Fusion will not testify, nor will Steele, but Ore is and telling a lot of the conspiracy between Hillary and the Russians. This hillary, Steele phony dossier is not going away. Far from it.

Have you ever seen anything that was released by the FBI, DOJ etc that was not heavily redacted. I mean like pages of solid black. No doubt we'll see some meat left on the bone but we're not going to see the entire report. Not going to happen.

We're straying from the threads topic, but I feel what you've posted would make for an excellent thread topic of its own.
If I find time I'll give the link a look.
 
Zerohedge?

Zero Hedge - RationalWiki
Zero Hedge is a bat**** insane Austrian school finance blog run by two pseudonymous founders who post articles under the name "Tyler Durden," after the character from Fight Club. It's essentially apocalypse porn. It has accurately predicted 200 of the last 2 recessions.[citation NOT needed]
 
The thing about "dirt" of the sort found about Trump is that nobody held him at gunpoint, or other pain of death to himself or others, and made him do/say the things he did and that are considered "dirt."


"Don't start none; won't be none."
-- I don't know who coined that axiom

You haven't even proven that any of the dossier is true, and here you are talking about Trump not having to commit any of what was written. Laughable.

Politicians will be involved and politicians leak.

I understand what you’re saying, but the results would be part of a political process. Income tax returns aren’t typically very political.

If the investigators determine that candidate X is unqualified, that persons supporters will be up in arms. If candidate Y is cleared, but is very unpopular, their opposition will be up in arms. The results, regardless of what they are, will be seen as being the current administration supporting their own party, or trying to wreck the opposing party’s candidate. I think candidate vetting correctly belongs with the media where at least their findings and biases can be debated and questioned publicly.
 
Politicians will be involved and politicians leak.

Only a select few of Politicians may see the unredacted version. And if any of those select few leaked their career is over.
