Schiff: 'Important' Question Isn't Who Funded Dossier, But How Much Is True

Source: Talking Points Memo




By ESME CRIBB Published OCTOBER 29, 2017 10:15 AM

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), the ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee, on Sunday said the “most important question” about the so-called Trump dossier isn’t who paid for it, but how many of the allegations it contains are true.

“I certainly would have liked to know who paid for it earlier, but nonetheless, that’s just one factor to be considered,” Schiff said on ABC’s “This Week.” He said “the ultimate question” about the dossier containing allegations of President Donald Trump’s ties to Russia is, “How much of the work is accurate?”

Schiff said his “colleagues” seem less interested in the allegations the dossier contains.

“How much of it is true? And my colleagues don’t seem particularly interested in that question,” Schiff said. “But that is really the most important question for the American people.”

Then the listener is either an idiot or has been propagandized and brainwashed.

A Venn diagram may show that those groups overlap in a big way.
