Statements like "Arrests could start as soon as..." or Taylor's "I don't have an exact timeline but plans are put in place for the arrests..." is what actually was said. But sure, color their reporting inaccurately.

Prior to this, Mensch was known for:

1. Being moderately successful 'chick lit' author Louise Bagshawe;
2. Becoming Conservative MP for Corby, then resigning after 2 years;
3. Attempting to start Twitter rival 'Menschn', whose website contained a critical security flaw which resulted in the front page being hacked to display a man stretching open his anus

I am not sure why she is afforded credibility as an accurate source of insight​ into the Trump administration.

She says what liberals want to hear. Most of us have figured this out by now but there are plenty of holdouts.

Notice that the exact moment two stories of actual import (WaPo's taped congressional conversation and the appointment of Mueller as Special Council) drop, the drive-by shitposting begins?

Don't feed the terribly obvious trolls.

I've done some basic Googling on her, and I still am not understanding why she has gained such a following. Is it mainly a product of the FISA thing?

At least Schindler can say he was a former spook, what's this woman's link to Washington?

It's just a joke....yeah ok
When initially asked to comment on the exchange, Brendan Buck, a spokesman for Ryan, said: “That never happened,” and Matt Sparks, a spokesman for McCarthy, said: “The idea that McCarthy would assert this is absurd and false.”

After being told that The Post would cite a recording of the exchange, Buck, speaking for the GOP House leadership, said: “This entire year-old exchange was clearly an attempt at humor. No one believed the majority leader was seriously asserting that Donald Trump or any of our members were being paid by the Russians. What’s more, the speaker and leadership team have repeatedly spoken out against Russia’s interference in our election, and the House continues to investigate that activity.”

“This was a failed attempt at humor,” Sparks said.

Mensch reported FISA and Trump's Oligarch Plane based on her own reporting. Credible.
Taylor reported Grand Juries, was backed by Mensch's sources. Credible.
Schindler has been sounding the Assange is a Russian assett alarm bell months before US IC confirms it. Credible.

Credibility is earned by being right far more often than being wrong, so it doesn't apply to any of them.

If you want to be like the Republicans and fall for fake news, be my guest.

Trump took down the disciple Comey in a disgraceful manner. Now the old master Mueller will avenge his protégé and finish the job.

I guess congratulations are in order for future President Hatch... I guess the tape just confirms what many suspected all along.

Not that I want to wade into the Mensch/Taylor thing, but funnily enough she did post an article the other day about the existence of an incriminating recording of Paul Ryan. She evidently has some sort of legit source, even if she does add her own spin/fantasy/bullshit to everything. I'm kind of impressed she managed to get any kind of source in the first place though, given the kind of person she is.

Hey guys did anyone see that Flynn never spoke to Trump about ending investigations?!?!? HUGE NEWS at Fox News

I mean that's what all this is about right? Case closed

I believe that's what you call a touchdown in 12th dimensional chess

JUST IN: Chaffetz's resignation expected soon, Legislature-governor tiff escalates over how to replace him:

http://www.sltrib.com/news/5302221-155/chaffetzs-resignation-expected-soon-legislature-governor-tiff


The expected impending departure of U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz is creating turmoil among state leaders.
The Utah House GOP Caucus signaled Wednesday that it might sue fellow Republican Gov. Gary Herbert if he will not call legislators into special session to enact rules on how to replace Chaffetz, whom House Speaker Greg Hughes said he expects to resign within a few days, effective by the end of June.

Hmmmmm kinda like Mensch's source predicted. Of course, if you were following the details of Chaffetz's inexplicable and unpredictable move towards resignation you would have known this regardless of this newest headline.
