Sure, you can take things out of context and conflate timelines and relationships in order to invalidate my point and strengthen your own. Comparing bookend meetings day of with business dealings from a decade ago, that’s absolutely comparable.
I agree, declassify it. I’d have no issue with them doing that. That’d be great.
As for what THE and others said, that doesn’t impact what I said or the timelines I just gave you which combat your point of this transparency killing the Dossier/FISA “conspiracy”. In actualality, it only strengthens what we’ve known for over a year. 1. It appears the Dossier was the catalyst for the FISA application. 2. We’ve had an investigation going for 18 months and to date, no one has brought to light the collusion narrative that was spun by the left.
Now, let’s talk conspiracy, I acknowledge this is it. My hunch is this:
The PapaD stuff wasn’t enough to grant a FISA application. The FBI took unverified, raw intel of the Dossier and used that in conjunction with the PapaD stuff.
The conspiracy though is that there was some shady **** between these different actors within the headshed of the FBI to coordinate details within the Dossier (Ohr and his wife, Strozk, and potentially others) to provide enough justification to corroborate PapaD’s stuff in order to push through a FISA which would give intel to Obama and Hillary to A. Assist her in getting elected, and B. Allow Obama to understand the plans the Trump Transition team were coming up with thereby allowing him to strategically do things which would slow Trump’s momentum, and protect his policies/interests.
There also exists actual historical evidence of organizations and agencies within Obama’s admin that had been exposed by whisteblowers for Govt’t overreach and political weaponization. We know about the bulk data collection. We know about the IRS. We know about intel community going after the AP reporters, Fox Reporters, etc. Is it really that big of stretch to think they wouldn’t do this under the assumption that she would win and they wouldn’t have to deal with the exposure?
Granted, this is a conspiracy discussion, but from where I sit, it lines up. They created enough surface cover for actual intent, but I think the wild card is that no one actually expected him to win.
Feel free to lol it and move on. Or, go back and look at my track record on a lot of this discussion over the last year.
