Paging Seattle Husker

[Musburger1]

I don't think highly of the Washington Post. But, maybe this will finally put an end to the Russia stole the election nonsense. Hillary Clinton should be tried for treason. About the only person I can think of capable of doing more harm to America as Commander and Chief than Donald Trump would be Hilary Clinton. She makes Nixon look like George Washington.

Welcome back from holiday, comrade. This isn't new information. It was long ago reported that the research was initially funded by Republican funding then picked up by the Clinton campaign. What we didn't know were the names, in this case Mr. Elias and Perkins Coie (a multi-national law firm) contracting with Fusion GPS. It was Perkins Coie that released Fusion GPS from their confidentiality agreement.

BTW- Here is a key paragraph from the article...

Officials have said that the FBI has confirmed some of the information in the dossier. Other details, including the most sensational accusations, have not been verified and may never be.

Again, this isn't new but was confirmed in multiple FBI testimonies. Of course, what your passage fails to acknowledge is that the "Russia meddling" isn't based entirely on this dossier. The FBI had opened their own investigation into Trump-Russia connections prior to this crossing their desk.

The lesson out of this is that DC is a cesspool. The politicians are corrupt, the bureaucracies are out of
control, and the press isn’t independent. The entire system is broken.

Next time Trump gets stiff-armed on a popular major reform by Rhino Senator resistance he should unveil the Congressional Reform Act.

Term limits, campaign finance reform, removing status that allows Congress to group purchase healthcare as a small business, etc.

Doesn't matter if it would ever be taken up in Congress or the legalities involved. Just promote the hell out of it to the public. All of those would be wildly popular with the public and scare the hell out of Congress.

Expose the hypocrisy of the political class and their double-standard protected status to the mainstream American public. Demand they be subject to the same laws they enacted for Joe Blow to abide by.

The hypocrisy is sickening. Truly. They are not concerned with what is right, only who is right or more importantly, who is wrong.

They are so ******* superficial they are only concerned with whose name is appended by an "R" and whose is by a "D"

It's a real sickness, IMHO. Not trying to get all religious but I believe it's a result of an abandonment of faith on the left.

A lot of these people truly believe a litany of unsavory acts is justifiable if they're done in the name of achieving the ultimate vindication.

An exaggerated example is if one had to slit an innocent lil girl's throat to gain the means to end her evil father's tyranny it's justifiable. The reality is it just isn't, good people know it just isn't.

And that's where the resolve resides in the MAGA uprising. The reality show words can ruffle feathers, but are the actions just? That's the standard.

The breaking news is that the opposition paid for the operation research? Ironically, it appears that the opposition did not actually use the results of the research in the campaign.
