Lying is so habitual with Hillary Clinton, that the real news story will be the day she doesn’t make something up.
Clinton appeared on Comedy Central with Trevor Noah, presumably because the stories she can share are laugh-out-loud funny, and made a pair of eye-raising claims about the Trump/Russia dossier her campaign paid for.

First up, Clinton claimed that paying for the dossier did not amount to collusion with a foreign entity.
“Of course there is [a difference between the paying for the dossier and Russian collusion],” she explained to Noah.

Clinton went on to explain that it was a simple case of opposition research, it was thoroughly legal but admits her lawyer took up the offer to continue working on the material prior to the election.
“It was research that started by a Republican donor during the primary, and then when Trump got the nomination for the Republican Party, the people doing it came to my campaign lawyer [Marc Elias] and said, ‘would you like us to continue it?'” she admitted.
“He said yes,” Clinton continued. “He’s an experienced lawyer, he knows what the law is, he knows what opposition research is.”

Odd, in that the former Democrat presidential candidate, according to CNN last week, “was unaware of the now-infamous dossier of allegations about Donald Trump and Russia prior to Buzzfeed’s publishing of the document earlier this year.”

Clinton also claimed that the information in the dossier did not become public until after the election – a conspicuous claim at best.
“So this thing didn’t come out until after the election and it’s still being evaluated,” she charged.
Rowan Scarborough of the Washington Times reports that while the dossier was not identified as a source, “some of the dossier’s more scandalous allegations did surface in the Washington news media before Nov. 8.”

“Her campaign helped spread them around to bash candidate Donald Trump,” Scarborough writes. “The campaign used Twitter and TV surrogates to say the information was proof he and Russia were in cahoots to defeat Mrs. Clinton.”
In short – she knew about the dossier, she knew her campaign lawyer paid for it, and she knew the allegations contained within were being made public in the leadup to the election.

Brian Fallon is falling apart. He should really sign up for a creative writing seminar in Sandpoint, Idaho and forget all about politics. Some insider is gonna write the Hellary novel, why not him? And it will make the Devil Wears Prada look like a nursery rhyme.
I’m not a Clinton fan, but is anyone near her or her fellow Democrats screaming for her to keep her mouth shut?
The Dems adopted the dossier before Steele was involved. They hired Steele to add juice to the report. Steele is a UK citizen. Foreign collusion. Doesn’t have to be Russian to be illegal
not surprise at all, if people will just pay attention, she has told so many lies and different stories, she can’t keep track of them all, so if she is caught in one lie, she has a cover lie for it………..Get real, one of the biggest crooks in American History, and what we are still waiting for her to tell the truth, we have proof of truth, so do something about it already!!
Truly Trump is not best choice of presidential material but that Clinton women is horrific and Americans can thank their lucky stars she didn’t become president.
Hey pal….Trump is the best and only choice for President….open your eyes blind man…
It did amount to campaign finance fraud! She didn’t declare it so she has broke the law! Lock her up!
of course Fallon and the whole homosexual cadre working with Hillary knew about funding for dossier.
Hillary would not know the truth if it was staring her in the face. Time to get rid of the Nasty Women…
Hillary, Samantha Powers, Lois Learner, Elizabeth Warren, Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Loretta Lynch and others connected to the former Obama Administration.
Trevor Noah’s body language indicates reverence, worship, and even fear towards Hillary.
$12M for one “opposition research” dossier? So the Russians were paid handsomely for information which was to be used for defeating President Trump. Anyone want to define “collusion”?
Ancient Mariner, not a rhyme, but shall help KILLary out…

Which organization, that continues to hide “behind the curtains,” has protected the Clinton Duo since prior to their marriage in 1975 ?
Is it the same organization that conducted the murderous, “false flag” in Las Vegas ? And numerous, previous “false flags” ? And, the multipurpose event of 9-11 ?
Marjorie posting: The Clinton’s didn’t know when to quit. I’m so glad. Just like an addicted gambler at the Trump Taj Mahal, they kept on playing until they run out of money and Lady Luck has an awful bite when she leaves you.
