The Primordial Ooze of the Collusion Conspiracy

The end of the Special Counsel's investigation into the non-existent conspiracy between President Donald Trump and the Russians has created an army of "Mueller Truthers," demanding additional investigations.

The real work was to insert the dossier into American media and intelligence organizations to prevent Trump from winning the election.

To then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe the material was uncorroborated and had been compiled by Steele, who wanted it used to stop Trump.

The FBI immediately opened an unprecedented investigation called Crossfire Hurricane into the Trump campaign.

The FBI needed something as backup, so their investigation into Trump, now focused on the FISA surveillance, could be said not to have rested entirely on the dubious Steele dossier.

There has been no discussion of why, in possession of information showing the Russians were running a global full-court press to recruit inside Trump's inner circle, Trump was never offered a defensive briefing.

It would be easy to dismiss all this as a wacky conspiracy theory if it wasn't in fact the counter-explanation to the even wackier, disproved theory that Trump was a Russian asset.
