FEC fines DNC and Clinton for Trump dossier hoax
- cyanydeez 5y ago>campaign hid the reason, claiming it was for legal services, not opposition research. Not a hoax. Fined for impromptu classification.
- cato_the_elder 5y agoWell, the Steele dossier was indeed mostly a hoax. But you are right in that the headline is misleading: it makes it sound like FEC has recognized this fact.
- moistly 5y agoSo tiresome. A careful reading of the extensive Wikipedia article makes it quite clear that it was not mostly a hoax. The gist of the work is undoubtedly true: Russia was actively engaged in manipulating the US election, and Trump’s folk were working with the Russians. A shocking number of allegations have, over time, been shown to be truthful. The Steele document is not a hoax. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steele_dossier https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steele_dossier
