Hillary Campaign, DNC Paid For Dossier About Russia, Trump

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

And that’s no more true than now as evidence has come to light proving that Hillary’s campaign, in coordination with the DNC, paid a research firm to dig up dirt on Donald Trump.

The now infamous Russia dossier, which is much of the material being investigated by FBI independent prosecutor Robert Mueller, was unequivocally a product of the Hillary campaign.

What’s more telling is that it likely was a strategy in the least bit in hopes of tainting Trump but possibly also a move to counteract any charges of corruption against Hillary for the Uranium One scandal.

So here’s the gist: Hillary takes a bribe from Russia with cash paid to the Clinton Foundation in exchange for US uranium.

Then during her campaign for the White House, she pays for a hit piece on Trump linking him to alleged collusion with Russia.

Somehow ‘hypocrisy’ is a galactic understatement.

Here’s more from Seattle Times…

The Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) helped fund research that resulted in a now-famous dossier containing allegations about Donald Trump’s connections to Russia and possible coordination between his campaign and the Kremlin, people familiar with the matter said.

Marc Elias, a lawyer representing the Clinton campaign and the DNC, retained Fusion GPS, a Washington, D.C., firm, to conduct the research. Fusion GPS hired dossier author Christopher Steele, a former British intelligence officer with ties to the FBI and the U.S. intelligence community.

Elias and his law firm, Seattle-based Perkins Coie, retained the firm in April 2016 on behalf of the Clinton campaign and the DNC. Before that agreement, Fusion GPS’ research into Trump was funded by a still unknown Republican client during the GOP primary.

The Clinton campaign and the DNC, through the law firm, continued to fund Fusion GPS’ research through the end of October 2016, days before Election Day.

Fusion GPS gave Steele’s reports and other research documents to Elias, the people familiar with the matter said. It is unclear how or how much of that information was shared with the campaign and DNC, and who in those organizations was aware of the roles of Fusion GPS and Steele.

The dossier has become a lightning rod amid the investigations into the Trump campaign’s possible connections to Russia.
