Clinton campaign, DNC helped pay for work on dossier about Russia and Trump

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.

Officials have said the FBI has confirmed some of the information in the dossier. Other details have yet to be verified and may never be.

go figure.

And John McCain sent an aide halfway around the world to get the dossier. He should resign immediately. The damage he has done is immeasurable.

First it was: Trump was in bed with Russia, we need war.

That one didn't fly.

Now it looks like it's: Hillary was in bed with Russia, we need war.

IMHO, there is nothing wrong with the Hillary campaign doing opposition research and investigating. The crime is taking that false information into the government and the Obama Administration and Deep State acting upon it with no verification whatsoever, and not a care in the world about using the full force of government to smear or attack political opposition.

Well, that is standard DNC procedure. They never did care if they were caught in a lie.

Somehow you know even this will not shame the Clintons into shutting up.
