Boom! Linchpin of conspiracy theory about Russia collusion at Trump Tower meeting blows up
By Thomas Lifson

In the fever swamps of Trump Derangement Syndrome, a key part of the catechism of ‘Russia collusion’ has been the belief that candidate Donald Trump was plugged-into the 2016 meeting at Trump Tower where Russians dangled the prospect of dirt on Hillary Clinton before Donald Trump, Jr. (In fact, the Russians had nothing to offer and were pushing for the repeal of the Magnitsky Act – which hasn’t happened.)

The conspiracy theorists seized on Trump Jr’s cell phone records, showing two calls to blocked numbers. Aha! The candidate must have been preparing his son for the meeting, himself collaborating! Why else would people block their numbers? It shows intent to conspire (or something). Of course, in the real world, lots of people have blocked numbers for all sorts of reasons, but in the minds of conspiracy theorists, ordinary things can take on extraordinary significance – if you are sufficiently woke.

Mueller needs to reimburse the Treasury Department for this travesty.

It was kind of fun listening to NPR try to make light of all the previous heated speculation.  (I was in an office that had NPR on.)
