We literally asked already this week if the major players in the news media could ease up on all of the bombshell reports that keep the resistance busy clicking “refresh” on their browsers each and every day.
On Tuesday, the anti-Trump crowd could taste impeachment as news broke that the FBI and the Justice Department had obtained a FISA warrant last summer to monitor Carter Page. “We no longer have smoke,” tweeted Rep. Ted Lieu. “We have extreme heat.”
That heat dissipated quickly, but fear not: here’s another smoking gun that someone carelessly left lying around at the end of an article in the Guardian.
BREAKING: SLATE/THE GUARDIAN report the FBI has "impeachment-level smoking gun" evidence of Trump-Russia collusion. https://t.co/EA9qcim0rH

Slate picked up and reported on the “sort-of bombshell” reported by the Guardian:
One source suggested the official [American] investigation was making progress. “They now have specific concrete and corroborative evidence of collusion,” the source said. “This is between people in the Trump campaign and agents of [Russian] influence relating to the use of hacked material.”
Specific concrete and corroborate evidence of collusion? An impeachment-level smoking gun? Whoa.
Hustle it up

Please release any bombshell information before Trump drops a bomb on another Brown country killing people just so he can divert attention

Yeah…..but The Guardian….
— Patrick Ogle (@paogle) April 13, 2017
CNN reports it too, but abbreviates it and cuts the most damaging info from the Guardian report.
— Ivan Jankovic (@giovanelo74) April 13, 2017
No source is identified by Slate/The Guardian and the article closes with this admission. WTF are you doing sensationalizing this non-news?
— Rick Clark (@DrDeadline) April 13, 2017
The piece says that ONE source claims this.

I wonder if they're pulling a Maddow-level oversell here.
