WASHINGTON—Investigators are re-examining conversations detected by U.S. intelligence agencies in spring 2015 that captured Russian government officials discussing associates of Donald Trump, according to current and former U.S. officials, a move prompted by revelations that the president’s eldest son met with a Russian lawyer last year.

Hillary

-$500,000 speech with Bill paid 2-3x his normal fee in Russia
-selling out our uranium to Russia after a big ‘donation’ to the Clinton Payola Fund/Foundation
-a complete money whore with zero morals

vs.

Trump
-already a billionaire
-unknown entity
-might do anything
-has balls and a temper, fights

Which would Putin want as U.S. President?

Hillary, of course. She was a known player out for one thing - money for Clintons - and nothing else.

Trump was a wild card.

Russia was working to help Hillary and this meeting was likely the pretext for a FISA warrant set up by Obama’s deep state cronies.

One question that nobody seems to be asking is this: since the WSJ, WaPo, NYT, and CNN have been well known outlets for CIA disinformation operations in the past; are those same operations currently very active, through their agents placed in the MSM, attempting to pull off a soft-coup against the legally elected President of the United States?

It's amazing that the Russians offered DTjr "damaging info on Hillary."
Did they think the existing dirt wasn't enough to damage her?

What were they discussing? Probably how to screw them over and set them up so Broom Hilda would be unopposed.

Breitbart

George Orwell once wrote that news coverage of the Spanish Civil War was so bad, it could not even be measured against facts: “Early in life I have noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper, but in Spain, for the first time, I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie.”
So, too with the Wall Street Journal‘s latest “scoop” on the Russia conspiracy theory. It might be called “fake news,” except that the term implies there is actually some news involved to fabricate.

The Journal reported Wednesday, in a breaking news alert: “U.S. intelligence agencies starting in the spring of 2015 detected conversations in which Russian government officials discussed associates of Donald Trump, several months before he declared his candidacy for president.” Its sources are “current and former U.S. officials,” which means the mainstream media continue to benefit from leaks of classified information, obtained in foreign wiretaps.

Some of the conversations allegedly referred to meetings between Russian government officials and “associates” of Trump — though the Journal does not explain whether those “associates” are Trump advisers, employees, or merely people he may have done business with in the past.

“It isn’t clear which Trump associates or advisers the Russians were referring to, or whether they had any connection to his presidential aspirations,” the Journal admits ruefully.

Halfway into the article, the Journal‘s Shane Harris admits that there is actually no news:
