Here's the first in @ErikWemple's series on media coverage
of the 'Steele dossier'.

It's an ongoing thing... the series š’‚š’š’… the media's 'pattern of misleading and dishonest asymmetry'.

@ErikWemple Number two in the series by @ErikWemple:

'Horowitz report confirms John Solomonā€™s scoop on FBI ā€˜spreadsheetā€™ regarding Steele dossier'

@ErikWemple Here's number three:

@ErikWemple Number five. The one with @maddow in it:

@ErikWemple @maddow This is the most recent. Number six so far:

@ErikWemple @maddow And this is the article that prompted me to look up and post the entire series:

'Wemple writes: ā€œAsked to comment on how she approached the dossier, Maddow declined to provide an on-the-record response.ā€'

'The Left, far better than the NeverTrump Right, grasped that Trump is succeeding, and that it has little traction in demanding economic, energy, immigration, trade, and regulatory alternatives.'

@VDHanson on the Left's idea of 'failure'.
amgreatness.com/2019/12/29/truā€¦
@VDHanson Since not everyone reads past the headline:

"It is popular on the NeverTrump Right and everyone on the Left to claim that President Trump has ā€œfailedā€ as we head into an election year.

But his supposed failures are instructive.

Take the wall.
True, Trump certainly in the last three years has not come close to building an envisioned initial phase of 1,000 miles or so of border fencing to stop the easiest access to the United States, much less made Mexico pay for it.

I keep forgetting to check on this gentleman. Gotta fix that.

'If the Russians did attempt to interfere in the 2016 election, then the intelligence community totally undermined public confidence in their assessment by tying that interference to false allegations accusing Trump of conspiring with that effort.'

Here's the full text. This author is always worth reading:

"According to John Brennan, the former CIA chief, I am about to commit a public act of treason.

Iā€™ll write quickly before he can summon his allies to kick in my door and arrest me.
Here goes: Weā€™re still not sure that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election.

Brennan similarly accused the president of ā€œtreasonā€ when Trump refused to buy into the Intelligence Communityā€™s consensus that the Russians interfered in the 2016 election.

Brennan tweeted, ...

Thread: Harold Finch Reads James Clapperā€™s Body Language (and itā€™s glorious!)

1. Intrepid independent researcher NameRedacted was suspended multiple times here on Tw@tter for what amounts to hurting the feelings of leftists and challenging their blatant lies.
2. In his last resurrection as ā€œHarold Finch,ā€ he was subsequently suspended and has since moved to Telegram where he runs a repository consisting of important factoids, links, and personal commentary. He can be found here:
web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@The_Liā€¦
3. In that capacity, he posts important threads from time to time that deserve a wider audience. In this instance, he dissected a recent appearance by James Clapper (Obamaā€™s DNI) on Anderson Cooperā€™s show on CNN.

Here we are, more than 2 years since Schiff publicly claimed to've ā€œmore than circumstantialā€ evidence that the Trump campaign colluded with "#Russians" to hack the 2016 elections, & >2 years since they read false allegations from the #Steeledossier into the Congressional record.
2. The entire scheme has now imploded and the collusion accusation has been exposed as a #hoax. One would think the D's would simply apologize and get back to lawmaking and oversight. But itā€™s clear they couldnā€™t stop this grotesque spectacle even if they wanted to...
3. The #MuellerDossier had no comment on the close relationship between D's at #FusionGPS & multiple "#Russians" who participated in the June 9, 2016 meeting at Trump Tower. In fact, no comment on Fusion GPS at all. No useful info on #Mifsud, #Downer, or #Steele...

More of the Steele #Dossier appeared to be confirmed by a new report yesterday. "Russian IRA trolls pumped out malware along with pro-Trump messages" They used link shorteners that appear 2b specific 2 a Webzilla client based in Poland #FISA #SteeleDossier
While doing research on the new Mcclatchy report we saw alot of "eggplant" accounts pushing out propaganda that Steele Dossier was fake or Russian disinformation. More "eggplant" accnts (new accounts with no profile pic) on message than we've seen in a long time #disinfo #infosec
In fact there were a number of stories yesterday from conservative & alt-right websites like RedState, TruePundit, and Daily Caller pushing the theme that Steele Dossier was fake. A tweet from Sen. Rand Paul was also a popular retweet #FISA #SteeleDossier #FusionGPS

1) Barr to Mueller: ā€œBob, show me the evidence & reasoning for why this investigation was started & still ongoing.ā€
Mueller to Barr: ā€œWith regards to the President we have found no links or ties to any foreign entity etcā€
2) Barr to Mueller: ā€œMandate was clear- verify & investigate reports of possible foreign collusion btwn Pres & Russia.ā€ ā€œWhat justification existed to effectively launch a massive domestic / foreign surv campaign against Pres (pres elect) & members of his transition/camp team?ā€
3) Mueller to Barr: ā€œSteele #dossier along w/ media corroboration of those findings.ā€
Barr to Mueller: ā€œWas Steele report a ā€˜trusted & verifiedā€™ report per Intel to continue especially considering the funding party was the opposition party?ā€

Another smart comment by @AshaRangappa_ - as she points out, Trump was told in "late July or August 2016" the Russians would try to penetrate his campaign.

Why then? What prompted that warning?

Well, in July 2016, @CarterWPage took a little trip to Moscow.
The #Steele dossier points out that on his trip to Moscow, Page met with Russian govt officials Sechin and Diveykin. The latter was in charge of hacking foreign elections. That was Diveykin's actual job for @PutinRF. archive.org/stream/TheSteeā€¦
One of my earliest Trump Russia discoveries, which I passed to USIC, was this tweet. It not only predicts what Trump did at the next rally, it was sent WHILE Page was in Moscow - meeting Diveykin, in charge of hacking against @HillaryClinton. archive.is/x8VnM

. hmm.. recall: dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4ā€¦
. so Christopher Steele first passed the info to the FBI and then John McCain passed the same info - but both from same source?
