And be sure to read the last sentence in the fourth paragraph of the OP

Said DonViejo

Republicans hired Fusion GPS to find dirt on Trump in 2015. By March 2016, they didn’t want to pay Fusion anymore. A law firm hired by the DNC to dig up dirt on Trump then subcontracted the work to Fusion GPS — apparently without telling the DNC. It was at that point Fusion hired Steele and then his memos were bundled into the infamous “dossier.” All according to their anonymous source.

...well, I’m not sure, exactly. Because she indirectly paid the law firm that subcontracted the research that further subcontracted the research to a former British spy, that the dossier is fake? Even though the article eventually points out that much of the stuff in the dossier is true?

They can drop that hint without saying it, then claim to be neutral and balanced because they’re reporting on “both” sides.

Literally the only new piece of information there was the exact month that Fusion’s funding switched from Republican to Democrat.

I think I’m going to throw up

Big THANK YOU to whomever got the goods on Trump/Putin's Organized Crime through the Steele Dossier.
Their foresight was honorable cuz the USA would have nothing to fight for our Govt, without it.

So Thank You All

then they handed the information over to the Clinton campaign/DNC who continued paying for it after Jeb dropped out. Old news.

Who knows.
