You can read the memo authorizing the SC investigation yourself. No guessing needed, it's right there in black and white.

What? The "dossier" was not the start of the investigation. That would be when Congress authorized the start of the Special Counsel. Who was the majority in both houses of Congress at that time, again?

The official intelligence community statement happened after the Mueller probe was authorized? You sure about that?

https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/ICA_2017_01.pdf

Jan 6, 2017


...As part of his oversight, Rosenstein appointed Robert Mueller as special counsel in May 2017 with the mandate "to oversee the previously-confirmed FBI investigation of Russian government efforts to influence the 2016 presidential election and related matters"....


Last I checked, May came after Jan not before. See? You're wrong.

The same Russian interference that Obama let slide?

One should always be somewhat skeptical about the goals of political figures -- that's part of the price of liberty. But skepticism isn't the same as certainty. The administration was clearly engaging in illegal behavior in an attempt to find some hypothetical illegal behavior, all based on DT's paranoid conspiracy think. It's a mental chain wrapping itself around the axle.

Did you even read the PDF you provided? Page 6, first sentence: "Information available as of 29December 2016 was used in the preparation of this product."


So, your own link clearly states this started prior to trump being sworn in.....because they stated a special counsel in May, means nothing....the investigation started prior...

I thought it was not started because of trump?

We also assess Putin and the Russian Government aspired to help President-elect Trump’s election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary Clinton and publicly contrasting her unfavorably to him.

Remember, this is your link hooligan....dated 6 January 2017.....Page 7^^^^^^

You all are such hypocrites..... the Dems make up this phony allegation about Trump misuse of power to have Biden investigated, when indeed it is Biden who admits to misuse of his power to have the prosecutor of his Sons corrupt boss fired.

Totally obscene hypocrisy

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KCF9My1vBP4

Biden admits telling Ukraine they won’t get the 1 Billion dollars from the US unless they fire the prosecutor investigating his son and sons boss.

That’s direct corruption, using extortion for personal reasons. Best part .... we have video confession!!! Where’s the outrage? Where’s the investigation of Biden? Oh, it’s ok to directly extort a foreign nation as the Vice President, as long as you are a democrat.

RT is Russia Today, Putin's state-controlled media. And THIS is your proof?

For the thousandth time, what Biden did was true foreign policy done on a world stage at the behest of factions within the Ukraine and many world leaders including the International Monetary Fund. Viktor Shokin was an actual bad guy and Biden rightfully is proud to have helped the world get him out of power.

That in no way compares with Trump blackmailing a world leader to manufacture dirt on his political opponent, done in secret and the evidence of which was locked in the most secure digital vault in the Whitehouse.

Maybe instead of Russia Today you might try reading USA Today. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...or/3785620002/

You are the poster boy for what Trump's gas lighting is doing to this country. You've allowed yourself to be brainwashed by Russia, to believe that black is white, not to trust your own eyes and ears and that Trump is a saint. Heck, you don't even need to read fake accounts on Facebook or Twitter, you go straight to the source!

When people say that Russia has no influence in this country, I'm showing them your post.
