Donald Trump's Pants on Fire claim Russia story 'made-up' by Democrats

From Politifact, pointing out the obvious:
Donald Trump's Pants on Fire claim Russia story 'made-up' by Democrats

"The investigation began with the FBI, not the Democrats. It started in July 2016, a full three months before the election. It was not invented, but was based on evidence serious and credible enough to launch an investigation.

We can go further.

Both the House and Senate intelligence committees are investigating, and Republicans control both chambers. Democrats don’t set the agenda.

Steven Aftergood with the Federation of American Scientists, a group that advocates for more transparency in government, said the fact of a Trump campaign-Russia connection is well established."


Trump and his cronies have no shame.
