from Crooks and Liars:
GOP political consultant Mike Murphy dropped a tasty rumor in a conversation with Lawrence O'Donnell last night about Trump:
"The president does what the president wants and there's a bunch of guys running after him trying to clean up after him 24/7, which is completely it's exhausting. I don't think there's any strategy or anything, I think it's all Trump-driven.
"But I'll give you one salacious rumor, because it's Russia Speculation Night, I was walking around Beverly Hills -- and God, I don't want to be pulled in by Mueller on this, because I don't know anything. But I was walking around international businessmen who I know pretty well, swore me to secrecy, said you can say it on TV, 'A friend of mine got pulled in by Mueller asking about a memorandum of understanding for a deal that Trump had with Russian financial interests during the 2016 campaign, and Mueller has the document,' " he said.
"So that is my contribution to the cloud of speculation. I believe this guy's credible, but I have no way of knowing if this is true."

(56,828 posts)British Intelligence had intercepted a stream of communications between Team Trump and Moscow back in 2016 - that was in the New Yorker article yesterday about the second Steele Dossier.
You don't use the word "stream" if it's just a few emails back and forth...

(1,587 posts)Feb. last year how our allies have been helping in that search. Unnamed Baltic states were mentioned, along with Germany. Conceivably help has/is being received from other countries who very early on recognized the danger. We are not alone.
