guess the truth is gone with it

Fitting

yo @FriarPop can we not have this ^^

the tag is still there you dingus

Anyway

The dossier falsely claims that Cohen was in Prague . And like I said, it uses news articles as independent proof that Steele was right. The article sources were Steele himself

I'm not saying the sources used in the Steele dossier are true, I'm saying they have been corroborated since. There's also no evidence Cohen wasn't in Prague other than him saying he wasn't.

But anyway @Exiled Sentinel I don't think we can continue this conversation with the asshats in the room, sorry.

who else needs banned?

anyone spamming huge images? <@203965572420075520> <@168060466529173505>

So basically you think an Multiple year long investigation should run on rumors supplied by intelligence mercenaries paid by the DNC? @wahx is that really a wise standard?

thanks @FriarPop !

👍🏼

No lol, I think a multiple year long investigation should be an investigation that finds its own sources, like all investigations. Trump's own department of Justice thought there was enough information to start the investigation right? I just want it continued at its own pace.

I don't think the Steele dossier should be the primary source, of course not

I consider the Steele dossier as just an interesting piece of information that has questionable accuracy right now.

It was though. You can see it’s the vast majority of the FISA memo. It’s the bulk of it. And they haven’t found anything to add to it in years.

They haven't *released* anything to add to it in years

How many more years until you say it’s gone on long enough? @wahx

Because they haven't released any reports

I can't answer that

watergate took what... 6 years? is that right?

how long was the clinton investigation for?

this shit takes so long lol

Watergate had an actual crime.

+ if it irks you that they are using taxpayer dollars, the money they've gotten from Manafort has already paid for the investigation

yeah are you forgetting the multiple convicted felons as a result of this investigation?

Nothing to do with the reason it started. Not that the media will highlight that

Right, and Bill Clinton's impeachment came as a result of a very different investigation. These things change over time as...wait for it...more information comes out. That's how it works.

So if it goes another 6 years and gets nothing you’ll think that’s great?

Uh, if it pays for itself, and gets a few more white collar criminals, why wouldn't that be great?

Should we just do open investigation on every president? Just the full 8 years. I’m sure we can get opposition research on whoever is next

If there is reason to, sure

Because it’s a false premise that the media uses to spread fake news about the President.

Well, I have different feelings about how the media portrays an investigation

That's separate from whether I think the investigation should continue

It’s also pretty fucked up. What would you think about the FBI investigation opting on you for a decade because somebody hired Fusion GPS to get dirt on you?

Remember, when this started Trump was a Citizen

I mean, my son didn't enthusiastically try and get dirt from Russians about the opposition so I'm not worried about myself personally

If it could happen to him. What stops the government from doing it to you?

The trump tower meeting was fucking *sketchy*, it deserves an investigation
