after it first made headlines and now we learn more about who was behind it. it didn t happen, and it was gotten by opponents of ours. nearly five years since the steele dossier first emerged publicly, federal prosecutors have laid out a clearer picture of the role well-connected democratic insiders played in the narrative surrounding donald trump s ties to russia. two special council investigations, numerous congressional inquiries and an internal review by the justice department have given weight to suspicions that so the-called steele dossier was used by some democrats as a political weapon against trump. it was a group of opponents that got together, sick people and they put that crap together. an ongoing probe by special counsel john durham investigating the fbi s 2016 russia probe is pulling back the curtain on some flimsy and potentially biassed sourcing in the dossier that was put
