by Justin Baragona | 10:37 pm, February 8th, 2018
From Fox News lips to the presidents ears.
It seems pretty apparent what President Donald Trump was watching Thursday evening. Fox News ran an exclusive report that claimed that Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) had been in contact with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch in an attempt to get in touch with Brtish spy Christopher Steele regarding the Trump/Russia dossier.
And wouldnt you know it, Trump tweeted about it on Thursday night.

The story, however, doesnt appear to be as explosive as Fox News made it out to be, as Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) noted right away that Warner had disclosed the text messages four months ago and it had zero impact on the Senate Intelligence Committees work.
It should also be noted that less than two weeks ago, it was reported that Julian Assange contacted a fake Sean Hannity Twitter account in an effort to provide Hannity with some juicy info on Warner.
