Fixed that for the WaPo.

So, in the face of overwhelming, irrefutable evidence of Russian meddling in the elections, resulting in a fake President, what does the administration do? Try to get names, addresses, credit cards, etc on anyone who visited anti-Trump Facebook pages. Fascists.

Right. And if you want to dig deep on that "confirmation", which was based on Intel intercepts, then you might have to dig into the "unmasking" aspects of this Russian investigation boondoggle. On the other hand, there is no specificity on which aspects of the dossier were confirmed, other than conversations between Russians (which I suspect is a rather incomplete disclosure).

As far as Manafort's "transgressions", I'll give you this much:

All of this is to say that if Manafort’s contract did indeed “greatly benefit the Putin Government,” it was nothing out of the ordinary. The problem isn’t that he might have done the work for Putin. The problem is that the ordinary when it comes to Westerners doing business with the Russians—as well as other non-democratic governments—is a murky universe, where American actors are not always on the right side of the law and Western ideas of morality. The problem is that Manafort was running a campaign that hammered Clinton and her family foundation for doing much of what Manafort himself had done for decades, and that he was arguably as corrupt as his candidate said Clinton was.

So, to me, its fascinating the the media wants to tar Trump for what a member of his campaign did as part of the normal course of his business that was unrelated to the campaign. But the media - and you - want to look the other way at the Clintons for doing very much the same thing. Its fascinating.

I notice you haven't said a thing regarding Jared's use of private email servers. Why is that, I wonder? Fascinating.

Even though such misdirection seems to have worked on you, it doesn't work on me. Susan Rice testified before Congress about "unmasking" and yer boy,:

South Carolina Republican Trey Gowdy, another committee member, told the Daily Caller “nothing that came up” during Rice’s interview “led me to conclude” she improperly unmasked the Trump officials.

The "Evil Russia elected Trump" serves the MIC, cold warriors, intelligence community and powerful friends of Khordokovsky. The MSM is in sync.

Another term for MSM is common knowledge derived from verification of news reports, aka facts.
