Right-Wing Rag Says "Evidence Piling Up" That Democrats Were The Ones Who Colluded With Russia

I won't post the text or the link to it, but on the front page of Yahoo News right now is a link to a story from Investors Business Daily which is pushing the idea that the 13 indictments Mueller filed, if you REALLY read them, provides a whole stockpile of evidence that it was really the Democrats who colluded with Russia. When I saw the words "vindicated" and "dossier," I knew it could only be a RW rag, so I didn't bother to read any further.

Good lord, these people. They're getting increasingly desperate. They must know something devastating is on the horizon.


EDIT: I scanned the article to confirm my suspicions, and sure enough, here's a paragraph that should tell you everything you need to know about the entire article. It's like it was pulled directly from one of Trump's tweets.

"So, to sum up: There's been no credible evidence presented so far — none — of any collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia to sway the November election, despite more than a year-and-a-half of relentless FBI and media investigations."

17. Big shakes in RW world - Michael Moore attended an anti-Trump Russian bot promoted rally 11/12/16
This is THE story in Foxworld. Rush, Hannity, etc.

The indictment of the Russians included a mention of a rally "on or about November 12th 2016" - it either said at Trump Tower or in NYC. Michael More attended it and tweeted that Trump wouldn't come down.

CNN and MSNBC covered it during the 12-5 time period. Fox News only covered it for 66 seconds. I heard all this on Hannity's show a few minutes ago. Really specific and packaged don't you think?

They are hammering this home to the believers all day.

One event. Promoted by Russian bots (not created). Ignore all the other events that Republicans went to. Ignore the rest of the indictment. Ignore Fox News hosting Teabagger rallies in 2009. Ignore daily coverage on MSM of the teabaggers and continually mentioning the brother BS.
