August 4, 2025

If you are trying to keep up with the new developments around Hillary Clinton, Trump, the 2016 campaign, and the Russian Collusion Hoax piece, this post from Byron York is pretty much all you need to know.

Clinton has SO much ‘splainin’ to do.

Take a look:

Five facts about Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, Russia, and the 2016 campaign:

1) By April, 2016, the Clinton campaign already had a contractor — Christopher Steele — working on developing damaging information on Trump and Russia.

3) Also in July, Steele contacted an FBI agent and “requested an urgent meeting,” according to the Durham Report. There Steele gave the FBI one of his first reports. It alleged, famously, that “Russian authorities had been cultivating and supporting US Republican president candidate Donald Trump for at least five years,” an operation that was “both supported and directed by Russian President Vladimir Putin.” It also alleged, infamously, that Russian spy cameras had recorded “Trump’s (perverted) conduct in Moscow” including “employing a number of prostitutes to perform a ‘golden showers’ (urination) show in front of him.” That was the salacious and wildly false allegation that later became known as the “pee tape.” It is without any doubt an example of the Clinton campaign, working through its contractor Steele, providing “false and/or misleading information to the FBI or other agencies.”

4) After July, Steele worked hard to funnel his anti-Trump material into the media. For journalists, the dossier’s unsupported gossip would be legitimized by the fact that the FBI was investigating it.

5) In September, 2016, a Democratic lawyer working on behalf of the Clinton campaign, Michael Sussmann, planted a false allegation about Trump and Russia — the so-called Alfa Bank story — with the FBI. At the time, Sussmann denied he was acting for the Clinton team, even though he billed the campaign for the outreach to the FBI.
