The mainstream media is hiding the truth once again. The infamous Steele dossier, which was widely debunked and proven to be full of Russian disinformation, was pushed for years by the media in an attempt to undermine a duly elected president. The media was aiding the rogue elements of the FBI and the deep state along with their Democratic allies.

Margot Cleveland from The Federalist exposed these clowns who were responsible for pushing the false narrative that Trump was a Kremlin agent. The intelligence community that manufactured this entire conspiracy theory should be ashamed of themselves. Even Fox News got into the game with their attempts to validate the unsupported theory.
2) It means he didn't catch anyone doing anything so dumb as writing down that they took a specific step to aid a candidate. You know, like: "Let's give out this Combetta immunity deal so nothing comes out that will derail Hillary for President." #IGReport

There were many culprits, such as Glenn Simpson, DOJ lawyer Bruce Ohr, the former FBI duo of Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, fired FBI heads James Comey and Andrew McCabe, dossier courier David Kramer, and former senator Harry Reid. Not to mention Jane Mayer and Susan Hennessey from CNN who constantly tried to legitimize the dossier.
John Brennan sold collusion to both the White House and the public. Obama national security director James Clapper was also an instrumental player, creating and perpetuating the Russia collusion hoax for two whole years. He even leaked crucial details to CNN’s Jake Tapper, who then lied to Congress about the leak. Clapper was rewarded with a CNN contract a few months later. The Washington Post fact-checkers tried to defend Clapper, but it was clear that he had no credibility left.
Various media outlets, including The New York Times, CNN, and Fox News, gave airtime to conspiracy theorists who propagated lies about Russia and President Trump. There was Michelle Goldberg, who wondered aloud about whether Putin was Trump’s handler, his hero, or his co-conspirator. She even claimed that Trump’s loyalty was to Putin and not to the American people.
Shepard Smith from Fox News claimed that Mike Flynn’s guilty plea was proof that the Russia investigation was not a hoax. He even pretended to fact-check President Trump. Juan Williams also pushed the Roger Stone and Donald Trump Jr. collusion fantasies.
These establishments and their journalists have lost all credibility. By pushing a false narrative and not apologizing, they have shown that they are no longer trustable. They did their part in booting Trump, but at the expense of the truth. It is critical to maintain a free press, but these left-leaning entities have sacrificed that for the Democratic Party.
