The day after Trump finalizes plans to withdraw 5k troops we get an evidence-free "intelligence" report from an unnamed official about Russian bounties, which by the way is disputed by the NSA, not that the NSA are the good guys, but it goes to show that even the US intelligence apparatus can't get all its eggs in a basket. The story was so obviously flawed from the very beginning yet of course it was unanimously reported as truth by the entire media and anyone who disagrees is outside the realm of acceptable discourse.
