FBI had Trump-Russia report in summer 2016, Senate to investigate

Rachel Maddow shares a new report that the FBI had the unverified Trump-Russia dossier in the summer of 2016 but said nothing while instead talking openly about the ultimately fruitless Clinton investigation.

... anything that affected the election that the person who leaked would be found out and prosecuted.

He couldn't tell anyone that?! That was out of the question for his staff?!

1) THIS information was known since MID summer. ALL have copies.
2) ALL expected HRC to WIN
3) Once THAT happened, ALL this would get swept away, with nobody the wiser. AND HRC FBI and CIA would take care of the mess out of site from the public.
4) THAT didnt happen.

SO now we have this. The DEMS in shock as is the country. PEETUS acting like a POTUS. FBI and CIA being called losers by PEETUS
IF due diligence was given back in the Summer, we would NOT be here. Guaranteed.
Due diligence cannot be given NOW. Drump knows this. GOP knows this. GOP doesnt care. THEY never do.
