The claims in this article are based on "two sources familiar with the matter." When news media outlets stop using unnamed sources that can't be verified, I'll stop calling them "Fake News."  What exactly does "familiar with the matter" mean? Remember that Lynch instructed Comey to refer to the Clinton email issue as a "matter" instead of a "criminal investigation."  Are these "two sources" in government? Are they members of Congress? SES? Or bus-boys in the Congressional cafeteria? Are they journalists? Are they Russians? Are they FBI, DOJ, CIA?  What exactly does "familiar" indicate? Between members of Congress, the CIA, FBI, DOJ, NSA, MI6, British Parliament, the Clinton campaign, Perkins Coie, Fusion GPS, KGB, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, FOX, NYT, WaPo, WSJ, and the National Enquirer there are probably a few thousand people that are "familiar" with the matter. Anyone who's been paying attention to politics for the last couple years is at least "familiar" with the "matter." This is one of the biggest problems in our MSM today. They can claim that "a source familiar with the matter," "a department official close to the matter," or "a person who spoke on condition of anonymity" provided information, therefore the mind numbed masses with skulls full of mush must believe it to be true. And when the claims are proven to be untrue, they can simply say they were misinformed, "sorry 'bout that."  How can we trust any news article from any news outlet if they continue to use mysterious shadowy Deep-throat sources? When are people going to wake up and realize that virtually all news media outlets are "corporate"? They all have an agenda.  The Steele Dossier was compiled after Cohen traveled to Prague. How easy would it be to research travel records then make claims that there was some sort of nefarious strategic collusion going on, and the simple fact that a particular individual had traveled to some far off location is proof positive they're guilty of collusion, which isn't even a crime? How many Democrats traveled to Russia, or Eastern Europe in recent years? Did anyone with a second or third person connection to anyone in the Hillary campaign, the DNC, Obama's FBI, DOJ, CIA, or State Department ever travel to Russia or Eastern Europe and meet with anyone who might have had a second or third person connection with anyone from Russia?  It's high time people start applying logic, reason, and rational thought when examining evidence. It's high time people learn to use their critical thinking skills when attempting to understand what the MSM is pushing as news. Stop looking at articles and events as though they're in a bubble or a vacuum. Research and consider prior events. Contemplate future ramifications. Stop acting like fish and spit out the hook.
