A fellow researcher, @ar68599812 – recently posed the following (paraphrased) question:
Why did the FBI use outside contractors in the first place when the FBI already had direct access to the raw FISA information. Why risk the use of outside contractors who would likely draw unwanted attention – especially when the Dossier wasn’t even being constructed at this point.

Have you tried holding a calm, rational discussion with your democratic friends over why you supported Trump?
Impossible.
Have you tried to hold a calm, rational discussion with those same friends over why you opposed Hillary?
Easy.
And somehow, the Democrat Party managed to ignore that simple fact. Lots of voters could not stand Trump. But they would refuse to defend Hillary.

The current uproar over Russian influence in the election process has reached a crescendo with the furor over Jeff Sessions’ testimony. Which is odd, given the Left’s silence on so many similar – and larger – issues.
Attorney General Jeff Session has been accused by Democrats of lying under oath and perjury. Here is the pertinent portion of the transcript containing the question posed by Franken and the answer by Sessions.Continue Reading

He also addressed declassification, his ongoing investigation into surrounding matters, and the involvement of U.S. Attorney John Huber, Inspector General Michael Horowitz, and U.S. Attorney John Durham.Continue Reading
