Buzzfeed was branded a “pile of garbage” by President-elect Donald Trump at his first press conference since the election, and boy did they deserve it.
Even everyone in the liberal media is outraged at them, because BuzzFeed became the “fake news” they’ve accused conservative media as being.
BuzzFeed released what they claimed was a dossier from a retired British intelligence agent detailing Donald Trump’s relationship with Russia, and asserted that the Kremlin has been aiding Trump for years.
Among the other claims in the 35-page document is that Trump participated in disturbing acts in the Moscow Ritz-Carlton (which included urination). If it sounds completely ridiculous, that’s because it is. It’s no coincidence it makes outrageous claims that are unverifiable.
As a disturbing aside, Senator John McCain was apparently the source who first obtained the dossier and passed it along to the FBI.
But where did this information come from originally?
The opposition research firm that hired a former British spy to dig up dirt on Donald Trump is the same shady outfit that was hired by Planned Parenthood to put a positive spin on videos showing the sale of baby parts.
The New York Times reported on Wednesday that Washington D.C.-based Fusion GPS is the firm that hired Christopher Steele, the former British spy who authored the salacious but unsubstantiated 35-page Trump dossier that was published by BuzzFeed on Tuesday. Fusion GPS was hired to research Trump in Sept. 2015 by a wealthy GOP donor who was vehemently opposed to the real estate billionaire.
But after Trump emerged as the GOP nominee, the unidentified Republican donor dropped the project. But Democrats who support Hillary Clinton had an interest in the information.
n 2015, Planned Parenthood hired Fusion GPS to produce a “forensic report” that looked at videos released by the pro-life group Center for Medical Progress showing Planned Parenthood officials negotiating the purchase of fetal tissue.
As The Weekly Standard reported, Fusion GPS pushed the report to Politico, which reported that the videos bore evidence of “manipulation.” There was no evidence that the videos had been manipulated, though they had been edited.

Most interesting of all is that Fusion GPS’s name is not found in any campaign finance disclosure report, nor is the anti-Trump donor.
They’re funding garbage, and even they don’t want their names attached to it.
