Sounds like they handle a shite ton of political opposition research

I don't understand the term "out of work" in this context

I mean it's pretty obvious he works, we just read 35 pages of his work yesterday

Had to add a bit of fluff to the report to make it seem like he was working I guess.

That's the story. Though apparently there could have been one or more secondary sources as well.

Those may not be mutually exclusive anymore

Either way, private intel entities are a huge part of the IC

Perhaps I meant freelance. These guys run some kind of information gathering outfit, though.

Plan A for the GOPe cucks was pussygate.

Plan B for the GOPe cucks was McMuffin.

What you are watching unfold is not the twilight zone, it is but Plan C: PeeGate- backfired. HA frick them!

There definitely is more than one source. The BBC says that multiple European intelligence agencies have been chasing these stories, and this dossier doesn't get briefed to the bigwigs without SOMETHING in it being corroborated.

The second sentence tells you that he's not out of work.

Did you make it that far down?

Most people don't even make it to the body of the thread before replying with FAKE NEWS or MELT BITCH or whatever the latest dismissive catchphrase is

I think this is what the trumptards are missing. You aren't sharing something with the president unless you know something about it. And just b.c there are inaccuracies in the report doesn't mean the report is all wrong.

We haven't seen the CIA commentary on it, and I am sure they ahve it and presented it to trump/obama.

eta: you have to figure that the european intelligence agencies are going to dig on this a lot. Expect more to come.

Btw, I respected you at first, then thought your name was josh and figured you were the anti-josh, you gained respect at that point then i realize it was iosh and figured you were really into anime and you lost respect.

Well you see that's just your treasonous thinking. In reality it's completely made up and being pushed by the IC. They're out to take Trump down because the IC is overrun with left-wing globalist, corporatist, communist, anti-American atheist gay Jews--and Muzzies.

Just so you're staying on track because I know you're slow: Pizzagate/Jade Helm/Clinton Corleone family = plausible

Russian meddling and efforts to gather compromising information = whackadoodle.

This dossier was briefed to Trump as a heads up that there were bullshite unsubstantiated rumors being floated around about him.
