FYI, it’s standard procedure to remove the previous administration’s policies from the WH site. It’s all archived at the former president’s page to make room for the new president’s info/policies. It’s not common knowledge so I do understand why people are freaking out, and it’s not like anyone has any clue what this shitshow of an administration has in terms of policies but the headlines/posts about it is seriously irresponsible journalism.

I could definitely be wrong (which is why I’m asking) but wasn’t the issue that data wasn’t being archived?

just to clear up some things about pissgate

  • the golden shower bit is only a small part of a 35 page report that claims trump has close ties to russia
  • the report was done by a former british counter-intelligence official, with a long history of dealing with russia
  • this had nothing to do with the CIA
  • the former british agent was hired by a research and investigative firm in washington by none other than one of trump’s republican opponents in the primary campaign
  • however, by the time he began his research, the primary was over. the original client dropped out, but he was later hired by a new democratic client
  • by july he had collected a significant amount of material
  • the material was based on russian sources he deemed trustworthy, and unsurprisingly had nothing to do with 4chan (even if the alt-right neo nazi’s would like you to believe otherwise)
  • he delivered the report to his client, but also delivered a set to former colleagues in the FBI because of the gravity of it’s content
  • sometime this fall he asked the FBI for more information on the investigation, but he heard nothing back because instead of looking into the report, the FBI was obsessed with investigating clinton’s emails
  • so comey was well aware of the potential ties between trump and russian when he decided to fuck over clinton 11 days before the election by announcing they had found more emails
  • the british agent thought there might be a cover-up in progress
  • because of this he was persuaded to share the reports content with the washington editor of mother jones, who first reported on the existence of the report on the 31th of october [x] (this was before any of the 4chan posts were made)
  • sometime in october the report made it’s way to washington, and a summary of its content ended up in an highly classified intelligence report on russian interference that was delivered to both trump and obama in november
  • McCain got his hands on the report as well, and dispatch a trusted emissary, a former US official, to meet the source and find out more
  • on the 9th of December, McCain arranged a one-on-one meeting with comey and handed over documents given by the former british agent
  • McCain has later confirmed that the report published by buzzfeed was the same report he was in contact with [x]

this is a great post but I really can’t believe that “just to clear up some things about pissgate” is a relevant phrase this week omfg
