Someone has worked hard to paint him as a "fringe" element and MSM has acted accordingly it seems. I wonder whether this might change now.

8. Seth has all the documentation of the Trump Russia scandal

the media has been reporting bit and pieces of it as it becomes news, but Seth has been everything put together and organized with timelines and everything. Almost everything he documents is from available reputable news sources around the world.

There are not many that have their arms around the massive reach of this scandal like Seth - think of it as the media reports on Trump Russia are the meal you get served at a restaurant. Seth has all the details of every piece that goes into that meal from start to finish - from the cows, chickens, vegetables, etc on their farms to all the people behind the scenes at the restaurant that prepare your meal.

11. What he does not have

is the testimony from the witnesses to Mueller or to closed door House/Senate sessions. And, he can only speculate based on various public reports on the actions of Erik Prince, Don Jr, Kushner, etc.

and hasn't there been reports/testimony of Jr. being secreted out of the Con Convention for a one hour meeting w/Butina in hotel?

is give them a more complete picture of everything going on - Erik Prince goes to the Seychelles on Date A, meets with Persons X, Y and Z and then these events related to those four people happen within 1, 2 or 3 weeks of Date A - say, Person X then travels to Russia, or Person Y meets with a Russian cutout in Greece, etc.

He blamed her State Dept (correctly) for meddling in his own election for Russian president. Certainly in a heads up between her and Trump it seems obvious who he'd pick. Her explanation was that it was for the Crimea takeover. Then Hillary came down hard on Wikki-Leaks forcing Assange into exile, putting him firmly in bed with Putin. I think Putin underestimated the stupidity of many Americans though, and like the rest of us, figured it was a long shot at best.

The added bonus is the detriment of the US and Western alliances at our own expense.

Putin saw Donnie Two-Scoops as much more Russia friendly than Clinton.

Seth has really been able to connect the dots. The problem has been that no one has been paying attention. I wonder if Congress will ask him to appear before one of the oversight committee or if they just want to pick his brain.
