Yes, the one in which Trump jr and Manafort met with an FSB operative to get dirt on Hillary.  That is the one.

Its not like it happened in a giant tower with Trumps name on it or anything crazy obvious to people who are not easily conned.

The one setup by Fusion GPS with Fusion employees and paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign? It’s amazing how Trump Jr setup a meeting with the Russian’s AND the very same people responsible for the fake Trump dossier.

Did you even read the article?

Your comment would be relevant if you could prove there’s anybody claiming the meeting didn’t take place.

However, if you had actually read the article I posted you’d see my take on everything is corroborated by Senate Intel that the meeting was a big setup from Hillary’s campaign using Fusion GPS officials for a hit job on Trump Jr to make people think that the Trumps were working with the Russians. Why would the very same group responsible for the fake Trump dossier, who were proven to have been paid 6 million from Hillary’s campaign, be in a supposed meeting for sharing dirt against Hillary?

Sure, but that is not a news "article." It's more like a blog on a conspiracy website. 

Your Gateway Pundit has made a number of wild and unsupported claims over the last year, like the Trump Tower meeting was a "hit job" from Hillary.

Natalia Veselnitskaya, who set up the meeting, is not a trained spy, but she is certainly a Russian agent representing the interests of Russian oligarchs. She was in the US lobbying to roll back the Magnitsky Act and funneling documents to the makers of a documentary purporting to offer the "real story" behind the at.

She was in the US as a lawyer working with US lawyers to defend a Russian accused of money laundering.  In relation to this case, she had dinner with one of the co-founders of GPS, Simpson, the evenings before and after the Trump Tower meeting.  Simpson claims there was no mention of the Trump tower meeting and Velnitskaya says she didn't mention it--but this is the nothingburger upon which your "pundit" engineers the theory that GPS engineered the meeting.  Even if she had used GPS for something, it would be in the service of the Kremlin, not GPS. That is why her relation to Kremlin trumps every other "connection" your pundit is trying to forge.

Notice he says Clinton "is suspected" of setting up the meeting.  Passive voice. No agent.  Who suspects?  The Gateway Pundit and Trumpdom. That's all.  Stony, whenever an "article" starts off talking about the "far left" and "the deep state," you want to read whatever follows very carefully and cross check it.  

The Senate Intel Committee does not "corroborate" any claim that Hillary set up Trump jr through GPS. Jeezus. Devon Nunes of the House Intel committee has made some pretty crazy statements, but nothing corrobated there either.

WTF: you claim there is not evidence of conspiracy while at the same time granting this meeting took place, but you buy into these unsupported conspiracy theories. Why?

They are not Fusion GPS "employees" or "officials".  They have worked with Fusion GPS for information gathering on certain parties opposing their attempts to get the Magnitsky Act repealed.  That is probably why they wanted to help Trump get elected.  He would be more likely to help them do that than Hillary. 

The Senate Intel committee has not confirmed anything you claim.
