The Senate Intelligence Report was released by a Republican-led committee and clearly outlined the many connections between the campaign and Russia. That committee and it's findings had nothing to do with "the media", "left wing politicians", or "XYZ political enemies of Trump".

I guess you've decided not to count the letters in the report from Republican senators specifically saying there was no collusion as part of the report. Also, the word is "its" not "it's".

I didn't decide not to count anything nor have I used the term collusion. Are there particular excerpts in the letters that prove the campaign didn't work closely with Russians? Because the report provides plenty of evidence that they did.

Did we ever find out why Manafort gave Konstantin Kilimnik polling data from the campaign? Did we ever learn why he worked for "free" on the campaign? just to come full circle, he went to prison, in part, for his fraudulent actions helping the Russian government (attempt to) destabilize Ukraine.

> Also, the word is "its" not "it's".

Thanks for that, hope it wasn't too confusing. FYI, the period should be inside the quotes for "it's."

I purposely leave the period outside the quotes in situations like that, as I think it's more confusing for the reader if it's inside.
