Fox used to be so very careful with this stuff in the past. Conspiracy theories, it seems, will always be alive at the network, but in the past they were treated as such.

Now that they know the President will pick them up and announce to the world all of this crap, it has gotten so much worse. He is actually promoting Fox and Friends and Hannity in their career of such nonsense.

But....here he goes again......

"If you're keeping score at home, the president is now questioning whether a federal law enforcement agency paid for a dossier on his ties to Russia, essentially organizing an information war against him—possibly in coordination with a foreign power and his domestic political adversaries. Does Trump have any proof of this he didn't find on Fox News? Well, let's see.

Fusion GPS, the Washington-based strategic intelligence firm that commissioned the dossier, has been turned into a political football—a shadowy organization that could be funded by anyone, Fox News will happily tell you. At the same time it was compiling the dossier, Fusion was doing separate work for American law firm Baker Hotstetler, which was defending Russia-linked Prevezon Holdings against a civil action from the U.S. government alleging fraud. This has been seized upon by Fox (and, thus, the president) as proof Fusion has Russian ties, even though it is quite common for Washington's hired guns to work on behalf of a diverse array of clients, some of which may even have somewhat contradictory interests.

The Fox-Trump claim got more ammunition with the revelation that Donald Trump, Jr.'s infamous meeting in Trump Tower looking for dirt on Hillary Clinton was with a Kremlin-linked lawyer, Natalia Veselnitskaya, who was also working for Baker Hotstetler on the Prevezon case. But as The Washington Post broke down in detail, none of this is evidence that the firm took money from the Russian government at the time it was compiling the dossier. It is all innuendo. And Trump went a step further this morning: He implied the Russians paid for The Dossier directly. There isn't even innuendo to support that."


President Trump Is Once Again Sweating About 'The Dossier'

BUT THE MEDIA MAKES UP THINGS ABOUT HIM.

Still waiting for all the folks on here with all the many many accusations against posters and the media to fess up and show something, but nothing and there will be nothing.

Do you folks not get embarassed when these things are used by him simply to fire you up and he knows you dont care if it is true or not ?
