Isikoff has a history of covering for Dems. It’s how Drudge became famous.

michael issokoff? The guy that buried the biggest story in current White House history? The lewinski slurped round the world?

The same guy that back doored {carried} hildabutchbitch's dossier to the FISA court?

He is now doing a "true expose" on Seth Richard's murder?

HAHAHAHAHAHA

I think Isikoff was also one of the MSM twits that were used to “sanitize” or legitimize the the fake dossier information.

“See? See? Journalist have stories out there about Trump/Russia collusion so that’s why we had to get FISA warrants.”

Isikoff is a pissant.

Say, what?

Hard to believe that Michael Isikoff is still walking the streets. He is one of the willing dummies and a pillow-talk pipeline to the pages of the Washington Post (Mary Ann Akers - WaPo political gossip columnist- The Sleuth).

Isikoff should change his byline to "Anything for Money."

I'm sorry, but I'm calling total bullsh*t on this one.

How would Isikoff possibly know this to be the case? Is he high-level CIA? Where's the proof of this statement, Michael???

So to resolve the mystery of a dead DNC guy who was leaking emails, just solve the case. The story is not who says what, but who actually murdered the person? Or is that not convenient to solve?

With OAN offering a $100,000 reward, Wikileaks donating $20,000, the DC Metropolitan Police offering $25,000, Republican donor Jack Burkman kicking in another $100,000, and even Martin Shkreli upping the ante with $100,000, the total reward for solving Seth Rich’s murder stands at $345,000.

"...a Yahoo News investigation has found."

Yahoo News and "investigation" should never be used in the same sentence. As you may recall it was Yahoo News that "broke" the phony Steele Dossier and was then used by the criminals at the FBI and Justice Department as corroboration to get FISA warrants on half of Donald Trumps campaign staff. Yup, no bias there by golly.

Seth Rich was professionally executed...double tap to the head.

None of his personal things were stolen, wallet , cash , watch etc remained.

And the DC police have no leads in the murder investigation.

WHO KILLED RICH...WHAT WAS THE MOTIVE?

What we need to know is what involvement Rich had in the leaking of DNC server information, if any. Someone knows about that, possibly Assange.

Its-a-cough is simply engaging in more disinformation about the Rich hit, because someone else is actually on the right investigative trail, and the ba$tard is trying to lead them away from public scrutiny. If that does not work, likely that some one else will be executed.

The present crop of Demoncrap Socialistas are the worst threat to freedom our nation has ever known.

We knew all about Rich before the Russians ever got involved.

Yahoo “news” is a propaganda organ of the Left. You can never believe what Isikoff writes or spins.

Michael Isikoff claims, without evidence, that Russians...

Isn't that how the Liberals always begin their stories about Trump?

Lunatic fringe Yahoo published the article supported by a synthetic Twitter mob of 5,000+ to get the story trending. Every one of the tweets were duplicates of one another. This is how the loons on the left exert control of trending topics going into 2020.
