Welcome to this week’s Premium Q&A session for paying members. I appreciate you all signing up and joining me.

How much of that Russian BS story caused the post traumatic retribution disorder we’re now experiencing? The Boy Who Cried Wolf is an Aesop fable come true. The FBI, CIA, and DOJ are shattered pieces. — Thomas P.
As I say in my recent column, a lot of journalist went along with the “Russian BS story” because they hoped it was true. They’ll never admit it, but the loathing of Donald Trump, I think it’s safe to say, contributed to the many stories that turned out not to be true.
