Shocking

The now famous unverified dossier includes the statement that the Kremlin has been providing Trump with information on his opponents.  Unverified.
This entire dossier was provided to the FBI by its creator, a British ex-MI6 agent, last summer.  This ex-MI6 agent is believed to be extremely professional and reliable.  He built this file first while paid by Republican opponents of Trump for the nomination and later by some Democrats after Trump had the nomination.
The FBI Director Comey testified privately to the Congressional Intelligence committee today and, as Democrats exited, the expressed fury but were unable to talk about it.  Publicly, Comey refused to answer anything about any possible investigation as the policy being never to comment on any investigation or non-investigation.  Senator Alfonso King of Maine just responded with incredulity,  after Comey publicly made pronouncements about investigations o Hillary Clinton.
Meanwhile, Trump says isn't it better that Putin likes him?
If Trump's campaign actually got information from the Russian government, that would break the Logan Act which prevents that very activity.
This morning, the Intelligence Committee head was refusing to open an investigation.  Tonight, that has changed and there will be an investigation by the House Intelligence Committee.
Meanwhile, Trump's approval rating is %.
I don't need to editorialize.  Facts say more than I could.
