Sean Spicer referred to "the dossier"

when he was evading a question about Jared Kushner's Russia troubles. He said that it was so questionable that most media outlets had refused to publish it.

The only document I'm aware of that's called a "dossier" is the one with the pee story, and that is a document that most media outlets did not publish.

Is Jared somehow connected with Golden Showers?

This is too icky to think about.

The Steele report is available online, it's been posted in several places already. However the names have been blacked out on all the versions I've seen. So it's possible that Kushner is named in the report and we wouldn't know.

There's a lot more in that report than the "golden shower" incident. It covers about 6 months of activities and several people were mentioned in the report. The names were blacked out by the FBI, or somebody.

The guy who wrote the Steele report is a British spy who apparently has contacts in the Kremlin and other places in Russia. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if Trump had Kushner act as his bagman, going back and forth to see Putin.

First, like everyone in this administration, he's a lying sack of shit.

Second, whenever someone tells him something he puts his hand over his ears and screams la la la la, etc. This way he can say didn't hear of whatever was told to him.

You know, it would be funny to ask him a fact-based question and see how he responds. Like, tell us about the weather in Riyadh, or what's the capital of Russia. He would probably dance around these as well.
