Report of the Senate Intelligence Committee

 


The  claims of a "Russia Hoax", promoted by Donald Trump, AG William Barr and various Fox News agitators, and their continuing assault on the findings and bona fides of the Mueller Report, have now been debunked by the extensive findings contained in a voluminous bipartisan report of the Republican controlled Senate Intelligence Committee. After a wide-ranging, long-term inquiry conducted in a bi-partisan manner by the members and staff of that Committee, it has been established that Russia interfered broadly in the 2016 presidential election to promote the candidacy of Mr. Trump and that persons involved in Mr. Trump's campaign welcomed this foreign intrusion and had numerous meetings with persons identified as being Russian intelligence operatives. It was only because of a lack of evidence proving a conspiracy (i.e. an agreement between the Russians and the Trump people to act in coordination with one another) that the charge of collusion could not formally be brought.
One might expect that the Committee's findings would put to rest the baseless and politically driven assertions that Trump was the victim of Deep State spying and a conspiracy to deny or oust him from his deserved presidency. Don't count on it. You can be sure that Trump and his minions will turn on the Committee, including its Republican majority, and denounce its report as the fake findings of never- Trumpers who are colluding with Democrats, the FBI and everyone else in the world who fails to appreciate the President's genius, honesty and historical achievements.
