This is yet another smoke screen/deflection created by Fox, Limpbaugh, Alex Jones, et al.

Actually, he sounds like your kinda of right winger. From your wiki link:

He wrote articles critical of George W. Bush for his decision to initiate the 2003 invasion of Iraq, accusing Bush of lying about the motivation for the Iraq War.

Uh, that's sourced from Christopher Steele, who is, to be kind, a bit at odds with the truth. In any case, I suspect that this will all come out in due course.

Only proving that sometimes even a deaf, dumb and blind squirrel finds an acorn. You really should research your sources better, Mikey.

A secretive Washington firm that commissioned the dubious intelligence dossier on Donald Trump is stonewalling congressional investigators trying to learn more about its connections to the Democratic Party.

The Senate Judiciary Committee earlier this month threatened to subpoena the firm, Fusion GPS, after it refused to answer questions and provide records to the panel identifying who financed the error-ridden dossier, which was circulated during the election and has sparked much of the Russia scandal now engulfing the White House.

...and this:

Fusion GPS was on the payroll of an unidentified Democratic ally of Clinton when it hired a long-retired British spy to dig up dirt on Trump. In 2012, Democrats hired Fusion GPS to uncover dirt on GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney. And in 2015, Democrat ally Planned Parenthood retained Fusion GPS to investigate pro-life activists protesting the abortion group.

More, federal records show a key co-founder and partner in the firm was a Hillary Clinton donor and supporter of her presidential campaign.

In September 2016, while Fusion GPS was quietly shopping the dirty dossier on Trump around Washington, its co-founder and partner Peter R. Fritsch contributed at least $1,000 to the Hillary Victory Fund and the Hillary For America campaign, Federal Election Commission data show. His wife also donated money to Hillary’s campaign.

You know the republicans aren't going to fund any sort of investigation into Russia taking over our country. Republicans would LOVE a dictatorship.

And while the contents of the dossier were being investigated, Trump was funding his birther investigators in Hawaii (or so he said) and accusing Ted Cruz's dad of assassinating JFK. Karma's a bitch.

Oh, only post sources that meet with your personal approval? That limits me to, what, Mother Jones, HuffPo and CNN?

Sounds like Dems have started to figure out where the real problem was.
