More Russian Bombshells On Moscow's Involvement In The U.S. Election?



Kimberley A. Strassel, Wall Street Journal: The Coming Russia Bombshells

A judge may order Fusion GPS to give House investigators its bank records.

The confirmation this week that Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee paid an opposition-research firm for a “dossier” on Donald Trump is bombshell news. More bombshells are to come.

The Fusion GPS saga isn’t over. The Clinton-DNC funding is but a first glimpse into the shady election doings concealed within that oppo-research firm’s walls. We now know where Fusion got some of its cash, but the next question is how the firm used it. With whom did it work beyond former British spy Christopher Steele ? Whom did it pay? Who else was paying it?

The answers are in Fusion’s bank records. Fusion has doggedly refused to divulge the names of its clients for months now, despite extraordinary pressure. So why did the firm suddenly insist that middleman law firm Perkins Coie release Fusion from confidentiality agreements, and spill the beans on who hired it?

WNU Editor: I think the more intriguing parts of this Russian dossier is not who paid for it, but how did the FBI and intelligence community use it . Did the FBI pay for some of it (apparently they discussed paying for it, but declined). Were special warrants issued because of? How did the U.S. intel community use it, and was this their bases for their assessment that Russia was involved in the U.S. election. Were people unmasked because of this dossier. A hundred questions .... no answers.

So Donnie Junior got fished by the Russians (or at least they tried) and the whole weight of the media world came pouncing down upon him...I wonder if we will see a similar reaction to the new revelations?

Perhaps an explanation with data rather than snark

Propelling black flight[Chicago] is the search for stable incomes, safe neighborhoods and prosperity, with many African-Americans, similarly to other Illinois residents, flocking to warm-weather states. During the years after the economic recession of the late 2000s, migration to those states slowed, but it has heated up again as states in the South have greater job opportunities and affordable housing.

Suspects (my List)
#1 Jeb
#2 McCain
#3 RNC


#4 Cruz?
#5 Rubio?

I voted for Cruz.

- I like Trump a lot on immigration from the the July 2015.
- I was 50/50 on whether Trump would be good. That is electing Trump would be like playing Russian roulette with 3 of 6 cylinders loaded. Voting for Hillary is like plying Russian roulette with 6 loaded cylinders out of 6. Questions?
- My original pick was Scott Walker.
- I had no use for Lindsey or Kasich.
- I thought Rubio was more electable than Cruz, but Rubio was one of the immigration gangsters.
- Liked Rick Perry, Bobby Jindal and Ben Carson, but ... these were not long term options.
