Who is this news org, why should we trust them? A cursory look at their content suggests we shouldn't.

It's easy, all you need to do is spot the term "Russiagate", in this case the "gate" is being used to suggest that Russian influence in American politics is a fake news story (which it definitely isn't, see Muller report)

Please comment upon the actual contents of the article rather than the "brand" of the news.

I dunno; I think “consider the source” is pretty good advice.

About the Russiagate article which the previous commenter was turned off: https://thegrayzone.com/2021/09/20/with-clinton-lawyer-charg...

It basically talks about how Sussman's work on the Alfa Bank story (about how there was a relationship between Trump and a Russian Bank) was accused of fabrication and was lead by the Clinton campaign, as described by research from the FBI. (You can read the judicial document in its original form here: https://www.justice.gov/sco/press-release/file/1433511/downl...) Although the title is quite polemical and should have been toned down if it were to adhere to HN standards, I think it is a valuable news story and shouldn't be shrugged off as just "fake news".
