Donny tried to illegally withhold disaster relief money from Puerto Rico
Because of course he did. Doubt he’ll be in office long enough for House investigations to conclude, or even begin, into this.

Owning Trump is power, and we know the measure of McConnell and the tribe he leads by now. They will grab the power with both hands, and keep it as long as they can.

The writer is too objective?

Some saner heads have been warning that Mueller is going to disappoint a lot of people.

What you call objective I call praising with faint damns.

He disappointed Buzzfeed big time. Disappointed as in putting a torpedo right into them. Scratch that site off the trustworthy list!

That site should not be on the list in the first place. The BBC dispite its biases kept the 'dossier' at arms length and always circumscribed it under the heading that it did not meet very basic journalistic standards.
BUZZFEED 'dossier' is the center of many formal anti Trump activities.

BBC's bias is strongly pro-Tory, actually.

As well it should be. However, Donny is his own worst enemy, with 15 lies/day, on average.
The Steele Dossier: A Retrospective
https://www.lawfareblog.com/steele-d...-retrospective
Quote:
As we noted, our interest is in assessing the Steele dossier as a raw intelligence document, not a finished piece of analysis. The Mueller investigation has clearly produced public records that confirm pieces of the dossier. And even where the details are not exact, the general thrust of Steele’s reporting seems credible in light of what we now know about extensive contacts between numerous individuals associated with the Trump campaign and Russian government officials.
However, there is also a good deal in the dossier that has not been corroborated in the official record and perhaps never will be—whether because it’s untrue, unimportant or too sensitive. As a raw intelligence document, the Steele dossier, we believe, holds up well so far. But surely there is more to come from Mueller’s team. We will return to it as the public record develops.
