"The papers 'seem to represent a serious and highly unusual leak from within the Kremlin' — just as The Guardian seems to represent Luke Harding as a serious journalist."

Ooh, snap!

Thank you for this very cogent and timely update on the "Russiagate" boondoggle; as well as a succinct and professional take-down of not only Harding's disingenuous claims, but "The Guardian's" willingness to publish, yet again, his fiction.

Your closing thoughts put the final basting on this proverbial roasted pig.

"The rush to promote unsupported allegations and ignore countervailing facts shows that U.S. officials and their media allies have obsessively accused Russia of what they have in fact carried out themselves: a massive, divisive disinformation campaign aimed squarely at the Western public. Accordingly, every piece of content that advances the Russiagate narrative is an iteration of the "propaganda" and "disinformation" that it purports to document or challenge."

As Usual,

EA

The Guardian "appears" desperate to gin up its sagging revenue, subscriber base and relevance in a post-Trumpian world. What else explains its insistence on attempting to breathe life into a dead fake story? What a comedy of errors. Great work Aaron.
