Here is an important thread about the Mueller report, Butina and the Russian penetration of our democratic process.

Mueller and all his high power agents and attorneys were unable to verify the dossier. Yet, the FBI saw fit to include it in intelligence briefings and FISA warrants. So, they were either part of the plan to put out disinformation about Trump, or they were duped. Which is it? |
They were unable to verify the dossier because evidence was destroyed. That doesn't mean it doesn't contain some particle of truth. |
Nice try. No. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/19/us/politics/steele-dossier-mueller-report.html |
Yes. http://time.com/5574575/mueller-report-trump-russia-evidence/ Even your own article which you linked says the dossier hasn't been disproven. |
Case in point. |
Aha, so Obama was trying to orchestrate a coup against...himself, or maybe Clinton, genius. Trump wasn't even the nominee when the Dossier was first funded, so your theory is half-baked at best. |
Amazing, Cline and Butina have the same lawyer. What a coincidence. |
It is a fact that one of Cohen's cell phones was in Prague, even if Cohen wasn't.
It is a fact that Page was in Moscow. It is a fact that the Rosneft deal went through (and is the likely subject of the secret Supreme Court case) There is very little from the dossier that has been disproven and no one cares about the pee tape, if it exists or not (though Trump was clearly concerned about tapes given what he had Cohen doing) - that is called kompromat, and is core to Russian tactics. |
First, nothing in your link indicates that Mueller's team was unable to verify the dossier because "evidence was destroyed." Secondly, you are going with the "hope springs eternal" idea. Face it - the dossier is full of false crap and was either an effort by Clinton, or worse, Obama administration officials, to spread false information OR it was a disinformation campaign by Russia that many in our IC fell for. |
It is a fact that one of Cohen's cell phones was in Prague, even if Cohen wasn't. This is not a fact. Reported by McClatchy, who has gotten so much wrong. It is a fact that Page was in Moscow. So? He worked in Russia. Had contacts in Russia from his work there. If he did something wrong, why has he not be charged with ANYTHING? It is a fact that the Rosneft deal went through (and is the likely subject of the secret Supreme Court case). Now, you are just hypothesizing. I think it is sad that either our govt. promoted false information about a candidate for president, or that our intelligence community was fooled by disinformation. |
Yes it does, here: "Mueller discusses some of the reasons evidence may have been hard to come by. Some witnesses declined to testify, invoking their Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination. Some of the evidence that prosecutors were able to obtain was privileged and would be inadmissible in court. Other witnesses provided false or incomplete testimony; as Mueller states in the report, the President himself refused to answer any questions at all about obstruction of justice. Still others destroyed or encrypted relevant communications. And because “numerous witnesses and subjects lived abroad” the Special Counsel did not have ready access to them. “Accordingly,” Mueller wrote, “while this report embodies factual and legal determinations that the Office believes to be accurate and complete to the greatest extent possible, given these identified gaps, the Office cannot rule out the possibility that the unavailable information would shed additional light on (or cast in a new light) the events described in the report.” Also, it was not an effort by either Clinton or the Obama administration, which is clarified by your own article. |
Jared clearly has not read the Mueller report

Highlight the portion in your citation that states that Mueller was unable to verify the dossier because evidence was destroyed. Since Clinton hired the firm that created the dossier, how do we not know it was her campaign behind the disinformation? Since the intelligence personnel in the Obama administration used the dossier in briefings and FISA warrants, how do we not know they were not behind the disinformation campaign? Or, were they simply duped by it? |
Are you this duped IRL? |
