Steele called the Handler on the 4th of july and said you "HAVE TO COME SEE WHAT I HAVE RIGHT NOW" basically.
At the end of the saga the Handler says he met Bruce Ohr in DC way way later and BRuce told him "I should have never introduced you to Christopher Steele."
….Which tell me Steele fucked them all. Go back and read the House Intel Doc on the Unnamed Handler.

Bill Barr: 'Very Concerned' Mueller 'Ignored' Evidence of Russian Disinfo in Steele Dossier
As we reported on Friday, Attorney General William Barr did a great interview with Catherine Herridge of CBS about why the Department of Justice dismissed the charges against Gen. Michael Flynn. Barr laid out how there was no legitimate investigative predicate to go after Flynn, that indeed prior to January 4, 2017, the Crossfire Razor investigation was being closed. Yet, after a meeting on Jan. 5, that included Barack Obama, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, FBI Director James Comey, suddenly it came back online to interview Michael Flynn to try to catch him in a "perjury trap." Barr hinted that there might be more coming on that because he noted that U.S. Attorney John Durham was looking into "the whole pattern of conduct." But the Flynn comments weren't the only interesting part of his interview with Herridge. As he said, he's looking at the "whole pattern of conduct."
He was also bothered by Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation which he said "ignored" evidence of the Russian disinformation in the dossier of Christopher Steele. Indeed. If he's looking at the "whole pattern of conduct" and he's "very concerned" about that, I wonder if he's also looking at why Mueller didn't. If the Mueller investigation was supposed to be looking at Russian interference, why wasn't he looking into that and calling it out? Why wasn't he looking at the Democratic involvement in that? There was far more evidence of Russian connection with the Democrats than there ever was with the Trump team. So you have to ask why, since that was staring him in the face and he knew that was the case.

Q Research General #11643: True Colors Showing, WE STAND Edition
RussiaGate and all its subsidiary mischief amounted to a seditious conspiracy by several agencies of government against the chief executive. It was explicitly an effort to overthrow a president by illegitimate means. The conspiracy extended to members of congress, who are not privileged with immunity against felony crimes, by the way. The partial list of government officials, current or former, who may be subject to prosecution in these matters should include Barack Obama, Susan Rice, John Brennan, James Clapper, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Rod Rosenstein, John Carlin, Mary McCord, Michael Atkinson, James Baker (DOJ), James Baker (DOD), Loretta Lynch, Sally Yates, Dana Boente, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page, Joseph Pientka, William Priestap, Bruce Ohr, Kevin Clinesmith, Robert Mueller, Andrew Weissmann, Aaron Zebley, Jeannie Rhee, David Laufman, Senator Mark Warner, Senator Richard Burr, James Wolfe, Rep. Adam Schiff, Eric Ciaramella, Col. Alexander Vindman. Players outside government include Glenn Simpson, Nellie Ohr, Christopher Steele, Stefan Halper, Sidney Blumenthal, Cody Shearer, David Kramer. The following media figures might be named as unindicted co-conspirators: Dean Baquet, Martin Baron, Jeff Zucker, Andrew Lack, Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell, Chris Cuomo, Joe Scarborough, David Corn, David Ignatius, and Ari Melber.

The Key Obama Meeting That Got the Anti-Trump Resistance Moving
Matt Vespa | @mvespa1 |Posted: May 09, 2020 2:37 AM
I mean, we shouldn't be too shocked about this I guess, given the scale of the anti-Trump operation executed by the Obama administration. Then-President Obama had to have known. If not, then he wasn't in control of the executive. Katie touched upon this earlier this week, noting that new documents from the Department of Justice in their motion to dismiss their case against ex-National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was the victim of an FBI plot to entrap him on perjury charges. Flynn has been vindicated, and more light is being shed on the scope of this whole operation.
The deep state does exist. They're malicious. They're ruthless. Just look at the mindset of Andrew McCabe and James Comey, who were determined to ensnare Flynn, department policy, and constitutional rights be damned. It's chilling. And now we're seeing how Obama was the starting quarterback for how to ensure the incoming Trump administration would be saddled with the Trump-Russia collusion allegations. It was coordinated chaos. Here's what Katie wrote about what the new DOJ revealed regarding this angle:
……………………
And all of this was done for obvious reasons. The FBI's actions here were deplorable. First, they used an unverified piece of opposition research, the Trump Dossier, to secure a FISA spy warrant on Carter Page, a former Trump campaign official. The FBI altered or omitted exculpatory evidence in the process to obtain the warrant, which DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz said was a systemic issue. Someone should be fired over this, but that won't happen. The Horowitz report also drove a stake through the heart of the dossier, which was compiled by former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele which was funded by the Democrats and Hillary Clinton. The dossier was probably never vetted by the FBI since former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe refused to say otherwise. By the glaring errors in it, it wasn't. Also, let's not forget about the spying operation into the Trump campaign. Sorry, it's not spying, just informants gleaning information from Trump campaign officials under false pretenses and then relaying said information to a third party. The FBI sent a woman, Azra Turk, to run the operation which included Stefan Halper, another informant. Trump campaign official George Papadopoulos, a target of this surveillance operation called 'Crossfire Hurricane,' felt Turk was CIA, not an FBI agent, but that's a tale for another time.

MARK ELIAS, ESQ. - For JOHN PODESTA:
PERKINS COIE POLITICAL LAW GROUP
[*Marc Elias, the Perkins Coie attorney who retained the services of Fusion GPS in 2016 to produce the discredited anti-Trump dossier at the behest of the Clinton campaign and the DNC, is one of those lawyers.... Perkins Coie hired Fusion GPS, which in turn hired former British spy Christopher Steele to dig up dirt on then-candidate Trump.*]
MR. PODESTA: I think the hacks were conducted by the - by agents of
Russian intelligence.
MR. ROONEY: What makes you think that?
MR. PODESTA: – byt there has been a lot of forensics done, including by the U.S. Government, and, I think, 17 agencies to the U.S. lntelligence Community have included that the Russians were behind the hacks of both my emails and the DNC emails.
MR. ROONEY: Obviously, you implied that it was coordinated from Russia and Julian Assange. But was there anything that led you to believe other than, you know, an opinion that there was a coordination,between Russia, Julian Assange, and anybody from the Trump campaign?
MR. PODESTA: Well, I would say there are a couple of data points that
are at least worth your exploring on this committee: One is that Mr. Trump, prior to the Wikileaks dump that occurred right before the Democratic convention, publicly asked the Russians to continue to hack Hillary Clinton's emails. And then shortly thereafter, I think in conjunction with when the Trump campaign fired Paul Manafort, he tweeted out that it will soon be John Podesta's turn in the barrel. I interpreted that to mean, particularly given the fact that he was going around speaking to different groups and arguing that Wikileaks was about to release damaging information, that those two things might be connected. I didn't know that, but that was like a reasonable suspicion on my part. I think he subsequently continued to kind of point towards release of documents that could occur throughout the period of September. And then, of
course, the documents were released on October 7

HUGE - SOMEBODY JUST GOT CAUGHT: Either Comey or DNC Attorney Sussmann Lied Under Oath about Access to DNC Servers
The House Intelligence Committee released the 57 previously undisclosed transcripts from the Mueller probe into the Trump administration.
Chairman Adam Schiff only released the documents after DNI Rick Grenell threatened to release the documents earlier this week.
DNI Ric Grenell also released 53 transcripts Thursday from the Mueller investigation.
One of the transcripts released was the Mueller interview with Perkins Coie attorney Michael Sussmann. Sussmann left the DOJ's Computer Crime/intellectual Property Section to work with Perkins Coie. Sussmann was hired by the DNC and met with and provided Christopher Steele with claims about Alfa Bank's alleged ties to Vladimir Putin.
During his testimony before the House Intelligence Committee Sussmann told the House Intelligence Committee that the FBI had access to the DNC servers.

OK working on witness redacted; Pages 22/23 Redacted is in London talking to Steele who asked him to come there ASAP for the info which turns out to be the Golden Showers stuff;
O So if I can ask, you said, you mentioned just a second ago, when
you read it at that point, in early July, the information had been totally unverified?
A Yeah.
O ls that something he, Christopher Steele, told you about the
information?
A Well, my first - one of the first questions I had to him was, do you
have any corroboration of this? ls there any independent corroboration,
information that you have? ls there a videotape? ls there an audiotape? Do
you have anything else? And the answer was no.
O What did he tell you about whom or how he got that information? I
guess what l'm asking is, did he - did you ask
A So he just said it was through his source network. I never asked the
identity of his sources or his network.
From a criminal perspective and a criminal investigative kind of framework,
you know, Christopher Steele and were never
individuals who were going to be on a witness stand. These were never
individuals who were going to be identified publicly, you know.
The use of Steele's information would have been maybe a piece of
information that came from there, that would have been attached in an affidavit, a

Buried in IG Report: How an FBI Team in Rome Gave Steele Highly Guarded Secrets
It was in the context of the FIFA investigation that Steele met FBI agent Michael Gaeta in 2010. Gaeta was in charge of a team fighting Russian organized crime. When the bureau's reliance on the Steele dossier first became public in 2017, press reports claimed that Steele's contributions to the soccer probe proved he was reliable. However, the IG report summarizes the views of a case agent and a prosecutor who said, "Steele did not have any role in the [FIFA] investigation itself, he did not provide court testimony, and his information did not appear in any indictments, search warrants, or other court filings."
Nonetheless, between 2014 and 2016, Steele collected $95,000 from the bureau for his work on the FIFA case and reports on corruption in Russia and Ukraine.
His paymaster was Gaeta, referred to in the Horowitz report as "Handling Agent 1." So when Steele and Simpson decided to approach the FBI to promote a conspiracy theory about Trump and Russia, Gaeta was the natural contact. Steele met with Gaeta in London on July 5, 2016 and presented him with a tantalizing preview of the "dossier." This first installment included the lurid "pee tape" story - the salacious rumor that Trump had paid Russian prostitutes to urinate on a Moscow hotel bed the Obamas had slept on.
By September Steele had given the FBI the bulk of his Trump-Russia reports. That led to the meeting in Rome on October 3 between Steele and several agents from the Crossfire Hurricane team, as the IG report describes them: "Case Agent 2," a "Supervisory Intel Analyst," and an "Acting Section Chief," together with Gaeta.

Date of Article: April 4 2019
Originally reported by Big League Politics
IMO–always thought Trump was saying 'Big League' NOT Bigly.
EXCERPTS:
This article will firmly demonstrate the following:
-Hillary Clinton's campaign used the Christopher Steele dossier before their involvement was covered up
-Senior Obama administration officials secretly plotted to involve senators in the "Russia" conspiracy
-James Clapper tried to use the "Russia" narrative to get the Supreme Court to invalidate Trump's presidency
-Natalia Veselnitskaya was a Fusion GPS set-up agent who worked out of an Obama official's office in D.C.
-Peter Strzok ran point on destroying General Flynn and covering up for Hillary Clinton
-Barack Obama used foreign powers to keep the scheme going, even after he left the Oval Office to President Trump
Obama administration Director of National Intelligence James Clapper held a meeting in his last days in office to discuss the idea of going to a Supreme Court justice to block President Donald Trump's inauguration, according to a high-level member of the intelligence community who spoke with a Big League Politics source.
Clapper discussed blocking the inauguration on the grounds that Trump was an illegitimate president due to alleged Russian interference in the election, according to the sources. It is not known whether Clapper ever actually convened a meeting with a Supreme Court justice to discuss the Russia case, or whether he simply discussed the idea of doing so. By the time Trump entered office on January 20, the Russia narrative was already underway

The Free Beacon was founded by Michael Goldfarb, Aaron Harrison, and Matthew Continetti. (Bill Kristol son-in-law)
—
From October 2015 to May 2016, the Washington Free Beacon hired Fusion GPS to conduct opposition research on "multiple candidates" during the 2016 presidential election, including Donald Trump. The Free Beacon stopped funding this research when Donald Trump had clinched the Republican nomination.[9] Fusion GPS would later hire former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele and produce a dossier alleging links between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. Paul Singer, a billionaire and hedge fund manager, who is a major donor to the Free Beacon, said he was unaware of this dossier until it was published by BuzzFeed in January 2017.[10] On October 27, 2017, the Free Beacon publicly disclosed that it had hired Fusion GPS, and stated that it "had no knowledge of or connection to the Steele dossier, did not pay for the dossier, and never had contact with, knowledge of, or provided payment for any work performed by Christopher Steele."[11]
The Free Beacon came under criticism for its reporting on Fusion GPS. Three days before it was revealed that it was the Free Beacon that had funded the work by Fusion GPS, the Free Beacon wrote that the firm's work "was funded by an unknown GOP client while the primary was still going on."[12] The Free Beacon has also published pieces that have sought to portray the work by Fusion GPS as unreliable "without noting that it considered Fusion GPS reliable enough to pay for its services."[12] In an editor's note, Continetti said "the reason for this omission is that the authors of these articles, and the particular editors who reviewed them, were unaware of this relationship," and that the outlet was reviewing its editorial process to avoid similar issues in the future.[13]

Continetti lives in Arlington, Virginia.[7] He is married to Anne Elizabeth Kristol, the daughter of William Kristol, Vice President Dan Quayle's Chief of Staff.[3] Continetti converted to Judaism in 2011, prior to his marriage to Kristol.[6]

Flash back to this article
GOP Rep. Adam Kinzinger and a longtime aide to Speaker Paul D. Ryan each were given an early look at the final report added to the infamous "Steele dossier," court documents in a lawsuit against BuzzFeed News show.
Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence agent who compiled the unsubstantiated research booklet in 2016 about Donald Trump's connections to Russia before he became president, gave the report to Kinzinger and Jonathan Burks, Ryan's longtime chief of staff, after he completed it on Dec. 13, 2016, according to the court memo.
In addition to Kinzinger and Burks, Steele also handed off the 17th and final report of his dossier, Report 166, to a longtime associate of Sen. John McCain and the top Russia expert on President Barack Obama's National Security Council.
The judge in the BuzzFeed case, Ursula Ungaro, ruled in favor of the online publication on Wednesday. Russian businessman Aleksej Gubarev sued BuzzFeed for publishing its story without first investigating the dossier's claim that Gubarev's companies hacked Democratic computer systems ahead of the 2016 election. Gubarev has strongly denied the claim.
Among other potentially explosive claims, the dossier contains salacious, unsubstantiated reports of Trump having sex with prostitutes in Moscow, an encounter that it says might have been recorded on video by the Russian government.

Buried in IG Report: How an FBI Team in Rome Gave Steele Highly Guarded Secrets
It was in the context of the FIFA investigation that Steele met FBI agent Michael Gaeta in 2010. Gaeta was in charge of a team fighting Russian organized crime. When the bureau's reliance on the Steele dossier first became public in 2017, press reports claimed that Steele's contributions to the soccer probe proved he was reliable. However, the IG report summarizes the views of a case agent and a prosecutor who said, "Steele did not have any role in the [FIFA] investigation itself, he did not provide court testimony, and his information did not appear in any indictments, search warrants, or other court filings."
Nonetheless, between 2014 and 2016, Steele collected $95,000 from the bureau for his work on the FIFA case and reports on corruption in Russia and Ukraine.
His paymaster was Gaeta, referred to in the Horowitz report as "Handling Agent 1." So when Steele and Simpson decided to approach the FBI to promote a conspiracy theory about Trump and Russia, Gaeta was the natural contact. Steele met with Gaeta in London on July 5, 2016 and presented him with a tantalizing preview of the "dossier." This first installment included the lurid "pee tape" story - the salacious rumor that Trump had paid Russian prostitutes to urinate on a Moscow hotel bed the Obamas had slept on.
By September Steele had given the FBI the bulk of his Trump-Russia reports. That led to the meeting in Rome on October 3 between Steele and several agents from the Crossfire Hurricane team, as the IG report describes them: "Case Agent 2," a "Supervisory Intel Analyst," and an "Acting Section Chief," together with Gaeta.

Investigative Group
Meet The Board Of The Fusion GPS-Linked Group Investigating Trump
Chuck Ross
Investigative Reporter
December 12, 2018 8:40 PM ET
Font Size:
A mysterious nonprofit groupbacked in part by George Soros and linked to Fusion GPS has investigated President Donald Trump and possible Russian interference.
The Democracy Integrity Project has largely remained a mystery, but The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned new details about the group's board of directors.
One board member is an attorney who has worked closely with Fusion GPS in the past. The lawyer, Adam Kaufmann, has worked for Derwick Associates, a Venezuelan power company accused of bribery and money laundering.
Days after Donald Trump's inauguration, a nonprofit organization opened up shop in Washington, D.C., to continue a private investigation into the president's possible ties to Russia.
Only a few details of the group, the Democracy Integrity Project, have trickled out over the nearly two years since its founding.
The organization's founder, a former Senate Intelligence Committee staffer named Daniel J. Jones, hired opposition research firm Fusion GPS and dossier author Christopher Steele as part of the initiative, he told the FBI in March 2017. And it has been revealed that billionaire financier George Soros has given at least $1 million to the group and is considering giving more.
But The Daily Caller News Foundation has obtained Democracy Integrity Project's articles of incorporation showing that a white collar defense attorney who has worked with Fusion GPS in the past and a former State Department official were also on the group's board of directors. (RELATED: Cabal Of Wealthy Donors Financing $50 Million Trump-Russia Investigation)
Documents obtained through a public records request show that Adam Kaufmann, a partner at the firm Lewis Baach Kaufmann Middlemiss, and Dafna Hochman Rand, the former deputy assistant secretary of state in the bureau of democracy, human rights and labor, are listed along with Jones as Democracy Integrity Project board members.
Rand is listed on the initial registration for the Democracy Integrity Project, which was filed on Jan. 31, 2017. Her LinkedIn profile says that she worked at the State Department through January 2017, though the exact date of her departure is unknown. Rand is not listed as a board member in a March 31, 2017, filing, suggesting that she left the organization shortly after joining.

Link from Q #3031:
Interview With FBI's Gaeta, Central to Russiagate, Among 53 Transcripts Slated for Release
The House Intelligence Committee voted on Sept. 28 to release the transcripts of 53 interviews conducted during the committee's investigation of Russian interference during the 2016 presidential election.
The interviews include high-level officials of the Obama administration, such as former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and former National Security Advisor Susan Rice.
The list (pdf) also includes people from President Donald Trump's circle, including his son, Donald Trump Jr., son-in-law and advisor Jared Kushner, and former campaign chair Corey Lewandowski.
While the public has heard the story of many of the interviewees before, one of the transcripts may be the most complete account yet from a key figure in what has come to be known as "Russiagate." Specifically, his role in allowing the now infamous Steele dossier to become the cornerstone in the FBI obtaining a FISA spy warrant on Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, and by extension-under the NSA's so-called two-hop rule-other members of the Trump campaign. That figure is FBI agent Michael Gaeta.
Gaeta was, and possibly still is, the assistant legal attaché at the United States Embassy in Rome. Until 2014, he headed the FBI Eurasian Organized Crime unit.
It was Gaeta who, reportedly on July 5, 2016, traveled to London to meet with former British spy Christopher Steele, the author of the dossier. The trip was reportedly authorized by Victoria Nuland, then-assistant state secretary for Eurasian affairs.
Steele used unsubstantiated claims from second- and thirdhand sources close to Kremlin to compile the dossier on Russians allegedly conspiring with the Trump campaign to sway the elections.
Steele was paid by opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which was paid by law firm Perkins Coie, which was contracted for the job by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC).
Steele was only authorized by Fusion GPS co-founder Glen Simpson to call Gaeta a few days before the July 5 trip, according to Yahoo News' Michael Isikoff and Mother Jones' David Corn.
But that doesn't square with a report by The Guardian's Luke Harding, who wrote that Steele flew to Rome in June to brief on the dossier his "FBI contact with whom he had co-operated over Fifa."
Harding wrote that Steele had previously provided the FBI with information on Russians corrupting the Fifa soccer association in a bid to host the 2018 soccer World Cup.
Steele's "American contact in Rome" was "the head of the FBI's Eurasian serious crime division," Harding wrote. That was, at the time, Gaeta.
Nuland later testified to Congress that she saw "excerpts" from the unfinished dossier in mid-July 2016. She decided the matter should have been handled by the FBI, she said during her appearance on CBS News' "Face the Nation."
But it wasn't the dossier that, officially on July 31, 2016, prompted the FBI to launch a counterintelligence investigation of a Russian conspiracy, even though the conspiracy was primarily alleged by the dossier.
All Roads Lead to Rome
As the official story goes, Trump campaign advisor George Papadopoulos was invited for a talk with then-Australian ambassador Alexander Downer and the two met and drank in London on May 10, 2016. Downer later said he learned from the young aide that Russians had information that was damaging to Clinton.
Downer reported the conversation to Canberra "a day or two after," as "it seemed quite interesting," he told The Australian.
When, on July 22, 2016, Wikileaks started to release emails they say were leaked from the DNC, the Australian government communicated to the FBI what Downer learned from Papadopoulos.
Since Crowdstrike, a firm hired by the DNC, provided data that suggested the DNC emails were hacked by Russians, the FBI appears to had made an inference that the Clinton dirt was the DNC emails and that Papadopoulos, therefore, must have had prior knowledge of the alleged Russian hacking. That was enough to launch the probe.
What's not clear, however, is how the FBI reached its conclusion. Rumors about Russians having something on Clinton, specifically her government emails, which she kept on a private, poorly secured server, was public knowledge by May 10, 2016. In fact, just the night before, on May 9, former judge Andrew Napolitano aired the rumor on Fox News saying "there's a debate going on in the Kremlin" on whether they should release 20,000 Clinton emails the Russians hacked.

Yesterday, personnel from the FBI's New York Office met with Renata Polverini, president of the Lazio region of Italy. Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of the Criminal Division Diego Rodriguez, Coordinating Supervisory Special Agent George Khouzami, and Supervisory Special Agent Michael Gaeta met with President Polverini and other Italian officials to share ideas and discuss the continued cooperation efforts in combating international crime.

Russia, and Steele, check.
A little-known FBI unit played an outsized role in allowing controversial claims by a former British MI6 spy about Donald Trump to reach the highest levels of the FBI and State Department.
The Eurasian Organized Crime unit, which was headed by Michael Gaeta at the time, specializes in investigating criminal groups from Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine.
Gaeta, an FBI agent and assistant legal attaché at the U.S. Embassy in Rome, has known the former spy, Christopher Steele-who authored the controversial dossier on then-candidate Donald Trump-since at least 2010, when Steele provided assistance in the FBI's investigation into the FIFA corruption scandal, over concern that Russia might have been engaging in bribery to host the 2018 World Cup.

But I think somebody in UK government has spilled the beans on Steele, somebody he knew via their intel services, somebody he'd worked with in the past
So at this meeting I was induced to Christopher Steele. lwas
told - he explained his background to me. He explained what he now currently
did or was doing. Had just opened a private firm. He had retired
Iand was now beginning a private company, basically an intelligence,
corporate intelligence type firm, where he was engaging with private sector
businesses to develop information on Russian businesses, businessmen.
He had been engaged also, there was another individual who I had known

actors at times. And because of his
and that he came across information at times
regarding criminal activity at a high level with these actors.
And in the Russian organized crime fleld, you know, at times it's really – it's
not just traditional organized crime members, it's businessmen, very wealthy
businessmen, organized crime members, politicians. And, you know, at times ifs
a real tight mix between all three of these groups.
He said he had this information that really nobody
interested in seeing and he would like to do something with it, And if the FBI was
interested, he would like to start providing this information.
O Did you capture all this information in a document or investigative
report about this meeting in the spring ol2010?
A There should be a document that lust describes generally about the
meeting. There was certainly a document for me to get authority to travel to
London. I have to explain why I should be going and why I need to go.
(It was a hassle for Ohr just to GET this FBI witness approved to travel to London)
This is fascinating.
I may never read fiction again at this point.

Grassley Lifts Hold on Counterintel Chief Nominee Evanina After AG Barr and DNI Grenell Release Russia Probe Documents
By Jim Hoft Published May 5, 2020 at 9:13am
After two years Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) finally lifted his hold on President Donald Trump's pick for counterintelligence chief, William Evanina.
Grassley was waiting for DOJ documents on possible links between the Trump campaign and Russia which he claimed were given to House committees for their investigations.
Senator Grassley praised AG William Barr and acting DNI Richard Grenell in a statement released on Monday adding that he did not question Evanina's credentials.
President Trump has nominated William Evanina for the post twice but Sen. Grassley had placed a hold on the nomination.
DNI Rick Grenell has only been acting DNI since February and is already making his presence known.
The Politico reported:
Sen. Chuck Grassley on Monday lifted his hold on President Donald Trump's pick to be the nation's counterintelligence chief, ending a blockade that began nearly two years ago.
Grassley initially blocked William Evanina's nomination to head the National Counterintelligence and Security Center in June 2018, demanding the Justice Department fork over documents on its probe of possible links between the Trump campaign and Moscow - which he claimed House committees received in their Russia investigations, including those related to Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, who became a go-between for former British spy Christopher Steele and the FBI.
In a statement submitted for the record Monday, Grassley stressed that he "did not question Mr. Evanina's credentials in any way" and said his change of heart came after he received the documents he requested, praising Attorney General William Barr and acting DNI Richard Grenell.
"If their predecessors had simply respected legitimate congressional oversight and their agreements with me and the Judiciary Committee from the beginning, Mr. Evanina would have been confirmed long ago," according to Grassley.
"Let this also be a reminder that when it comes to congressional oversight, I will use all the tools at my disposal to get to the truth of the matter and get access to the records that I believe are necessary to advance my investigations," he added.

After meeting with Barack Obama on Jan. 5, James Comey set up Donald Trump with a potential extortion threat using the fake Russian dossier. Comey did not tell Trump that Hillary paid for the dossier, saying "it wasn't necessary for his goal." The same day Christopher Steele deleted all his emails. Jan. 10 James Clapper orders David Ignatius of the Washington Post to "take the kill shot" on Flynn.
Lisa Page edited the Flynn 302.
James Clapper told WaPo reporter Ignatius to basically "take the kill shot on Flynn"
On Jan. 17, 2017 Susan Rice wrote her "by the book" memo based on the words Obama used.
"President Obama began the conversation by stressing his continued commitment to ensuring that every aspect of this issue is handled by the Intelligence and law enforcement communities 'by the book'. The President stressed that he is not asking about, initiating or instructing anything from a law enforcement perspective. He reiterated that our law enforcement team needs to proceed as it normally would by the book."
Sure.
Soon after (Jan. 24) Comey sends two FBI agents to interview Flynn about his conversation with Ambassador Kislyak.
They had in hand a transcript of the conversation, which already had been leaked. There was no need to ask him anything about it other than to entrap him. Flynn was never told what the "conversation" with the agents was to be about. In avoiding protocol when sending over the agents Comey violated FBI guidelines. Comey would later brag about it.
The Washington Post reported that the two agents believed Flynn wasn't lying. Nothing about the call was found to be out of order.
Later their notes were altered to read that Flynn was lying and eventually they too were "lost."
This is the worst of the FBI and the worst of the government. If they can do this to a 32 year 3 star General they can easily do this to you. Flynn is innocent. He only pled guilty because the FBI broke him financially and threatened to frame his son as they framed him.
So why did the obama cabal so badly want/need Flynn out of the way?
Last night on Tucker Carlson Andy McCarthy offered us a reason ( begins at about16:00) .
"Flynn was not the objective. He was the obstacle."
The incoming administration was full of newcomers and inexperience dealing with political structure and intelligence. There was only one person with intelligence experience and lots of it.
Gen. Michael Flynn.
He knew how it all worked and in order to be able to complete the plot against Trump Flynn had to be taken out of the way.
"The quarry here is not Flynn, it's Trump"
"He (Flynn) is going to find out that we investigated the Trump campaign"
Flynn would the ultimately discover the grand plot against Trump and blown the whistle. He had to go. This is also why Obama "warned" Trump about Flynn. It wasn't for Trump's benefit.
The only question now is how much obama knew, but there is no doubt he knew.
Which leads to a 2:22 pm message where Peter Strzok notes "7th floor involved". That means FBI Director James Comey is now engaged on the issue.
James Comey being actively engaged is important. Previously Comey said he was unaware of what they were doing... Additionally this text and activity is January 4, 2017.
The very next day, January 5th, James Comey goes to the White House for a meeting with President Obama and Vice-President Biden.
January 5th is the White House meeting where National Security Advisor Susan Rice, FBI Director James Comey (Crossfire Hurricane), and Deputy AG Sally Yates (Flynn FARA) are talking to President Obama about the status of the Flynn FBI investigation and President Obama says "by the book".
1/4/17 - FBI wants to close investigation.
1/4/17 - Peter Strzok says no wait... I have a plan.
1/4/17 - James Comey involved. "7th Floor Involved"
1/5/17 - James Comey goes to White House.
1/5/17 - President Obama says: OK, but make sure "by the book". [Susan Rice Memo]
BTW, Mike Rogers remains a national hero for tipping Trump off to obama spying on Trump.
obama was spying on Trump using the falsely obtained FISA warrants based on the fake dossier without which there would be no approval. That they continued to renew the warrants well after Page left the Trump team tells you what it was all about.
Spying on Trump and trying to find anything they could use to smear him.
You can try to tell me what a jerk Trump is all day long but NOTHING compares to what the obama administration IC did to Trump and his team.
NOTHING

Q Research General #11513: Happy Law Day & Flags Out For Flynn Edition
The (Almost) Debunking of Christopher Steele, Stopped By Bill Priestap
The FBI's former head of the Counterintelligence Division, Bill Priestap, whose unsealed notes discussed the FBI's possible motivations for setting up then-National Security Adviser Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, is also allegedly responsible for stopping FBI Special Agents from doing an 'enhanced asset validation review' of the former British spy, whose now debunked dossier launched the investigation into President Donald Trump's campaign, sources with knowledge told this reporter.
On Wednesday, Judge Emmet Sullivan ordered four pages of emails and handwritten notes to be unsealed in the case of Flynn. Then, on Thursday, another 11 pages of internal text messages and emails between FBI Special Agents were unsealed by the court, after they were discovered by U.S. Attorney Timothy Shea, as well as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Missouri Jeffrey Jensen, who was appointed by Attorney General William Barr to oversee the Flynn case.
The January 2017 handwritten notes by Priestap suggested that the FBI was targeting Flynn and, in the notes, Priestap writes, "what is our goal? Truth/Admission or to get him to lie, so we can prosecute him or get him fired?"
Priestap could not be immediately reached for comment.
In Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz's December report on the origins of the Russia investigation, he revealed that it was Priestap who made the final decision to launch the Russia probe. The FBI probe against the Trump campaign was called "Crossfire Hurricane," and in the case of Flynn it was "Crossfire Razor." After years of congressional and Department of Justice investigations, evidence revealed that former British spy Christopher Steele, who was paid by the DNC and Hillary Clinton campaign to investigate Trump, had purveyed Russian disinformation and made up sources in his now debunked dossier. Horowitz's investigation also revealed that Steele had been manipulated by Russian intelligence, who had fed him lies about the Trump administration with the specific intent to sow chaos in the 2016 U.S. election.
Normally an enhanced validation review in the FBI is triggered "if a source is paid more than $100,000 per year for information, or the source's information is so critical that it can shape national policy or trigger some sort of diplomatic or military action. In this case, an enhanced validation of Steele would have been the appropriate course of action given the fact that this had the potential to impact our Presidential election. In this context, it becomes very questionable as to why Priestap would shut it down," said the former senior FBI official.
The biggest question raised by Horowitz and members of Congress was how did Steele's dossier become the main piece of evidence used to gather a secret warrant on Trump campaign advisor Carter Page, and why did the FBI believe the information? Horowitz's investigation revealed that the FBI never bothered to conduct an asset validation on Steele and according to the former FBI official, who spoke to this reporter, it was Priestap who insured that they didn't do it.

SIDEBAR on THIS ISSUE: This long forgotten letter from Susan Rice's lawyer Kathryn Ruemmler (who was also the former White House Counsel to President Obama). Notice that in Ruemmler's letter she specifically says the January 5th meeting was about Flynn:
[Feb 23, 2018] The memorandum to file drafted by Ambassador Rice memorialized an important national security discussion between President Obama and the FBI Director and the Deputy Attorney General. President Obama and his national security team were justifiably concerned about potential risks to the Nation's security from sharing highly classified information about Russia with certain members of the Trump transition team, particularly Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
[...] While serving as National Security Advisor, Ambassador Rice was not briefed on the existence of any FBI investigation into allegations of collusion between Mr. Trump's associates and Russia, and she later learned of the fact of this investigation from Director Comey's subsequent public testimony.

Q Research General #11484: The Left Is Freaking Out About Opening the Economy Edition
Flynn's role in "The Plan"
Source: voat (https://voat.co/v/QRV/3792920)
'My speculation –
Flynn "going down" was part of "The Plan." Trump and his team knew that DS was illegally spying on Trump, Flynn, and others. They also knew that DS had lots of corrupt prosecutors and judges installed, which would have made prosecutions impossible early on.
They needed a way to make the DS think Trump was a bumbling fool to buy time to set the stage: remove dirty prosecutors, replace them with clean prosecutors, and install new, clean judges.
Flynn was director of DIA. He knows where the bodies are buried. He has the intel. This is why Flynn is a serious threat to the DS. Trump brought Flynn into the administration early on.
Flynn set up the DS. He knew the DS had info about his interactions with Kislyak, but that they did not obtain that info legally. So, he put out the word through TV interviews by lying about it (on TV), directly and indirectly through Pence and Spicer (who might or might not have known it was a lie). This prompted the DS to try and get him to lie to the FBI so they could prosecute him and get him out of the administration.
But when FBI interviewed him, he didn't lie. That's a problem for the DS because it is not illegal to lie on TV, and he did not lie to FBI. So, the corrupt leadership in the FBI did what they always have done – they made up charges, falsified 302's and charged him, anyway.
Then, Flynn surprised them by pleading guilty to something they knew he didn't really do, and then withdrawing that guilty plea (they expected the guilty plea, but did not expect him to turn around and withdraw it). DS has had to hide the info all this time because they cannot prosecute Flynn, since they knew he didn't really lie to FBI (which is what he was charged with). In fact, it is the FBI who committed the crime of the frame up, and the DOJ lawyers who conspired through their dirty prosecution. In addition, it now appears that Flynn's original defense team was also conspiring against him.
Although Flynn had the intel, it was classified. That is why Ezra Cohen-Watnick became involved.
Cohen was Flynn's protege at DIA. Flynn brought Cohen into the White House with him. Cohen is the one who alerted Devin Nunes in the early days about the illegal unmasking by Samantha Powers, and started Congress on their investigation of the Witch Hunt.
McMasters (DS stooge) tried to get Cohen out of the White House, remember? Eventually, Cohen left the White House, and was hired by AG Sessions at the DOJ. A military intel guy at the Department of Justice? Why?
Cohen has top secret (or above) security clearance. He was Flynn's protege at the DIA, after all. At the DOJ, he acted as the secret liason between Flynn and the DOJ. This is how Flynn got his classified DIA intel about various crimes to the DOJ.
The intel was classified, so it had to be relayed through classified channels. At some point, though, it had to be declassified so prosecutors and grand juries could analyze and hear the evidence. This is when Trump gave AG Barr declas authorization, which allowed Cohen to relay the intel to Durham (and possibly other prosecutors who are still working in secret). It was Barr's job to work with Cohen and Durham on this, leaving Trump out of it.
Once the lid is blown off the frame job that FBI did on Flynn, the FISA declas will be made public, which will expose the entire illegal spy op against Flynn (and Trump, who was the real target).
Strozk ran the illegal spy op, and he was also the FBI/CIA liason (a special position created by Congress).
That brings John Brennan into the picture, which then brings Christopher Steele into the picture, which then brings the DNC into the picture, which then brings Hillary Clinton into the picture, which then brings Barrack Obama into the picture.
FISA brings down the house. The Obama White House.'

Q Research General #11480: Has James Baker Flipped? No-Where To Hide, Comey Edition
(Washington, DC) - Judicial Watch announced today it received 138 pages of emails between former FBI official Peter Strzok and former FBI attorney Lisa Page. The records include an email dated January 10, 2017, in which Strzok said that the version of the dossier published by BuzzFeed was "identical" to the version given to the FBI by McCain and had "differences" from the dossier provided to the FBI by Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson and Mother Jones reporter David Corn. January 10, 2017, is the same day BuzzFeed published the anti-Trump dossier by former British spy Christopher Steele, The emails also show Strzok and other FBI agents mocking President Trump a few weeks before he was inaugurated. In addition, the emails reveal that Strzok communicated with then-Deputy Director Andrew McCabe about the "leak investigation" tied to the Clinton Foundation (the very leak in which McCabe was later implicated).
The records were produced to Judicial Watch in a January 2018 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed after the DOJ failed to respond to a December 2017 request for all communications between Strzok and Page (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:18-cv-00154)).
The FBI has only processed the records at a rate of 500 pages per month and has refused to process text messages. At this rate, the production of these communications would not be completed until at least late 2021. The FBI is now using the coronavirus as an excuse to shut down the production of any further records.
On January 10, 2017, Strzok, under the subject "RE: Buzzfeed published some of the reports," writes: "Our internet system is blocking the site. I have the pdf via iPhone, but it's 25.6MB. Comparing now. The set is only identical to what [Sen. John] McCain had (it has differences from what was given to us by Corn and Simpson)."
Strzok sent the email to Page and several top-ranking FBI officials, including Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Assistant Director for the Counterintelligence Division Bill Priestap, Deputy Assistant Director of Counterintelligence Jon Moffa, Assistant Director for Public Affairs Michael Kortan, General Counsel James Baker, and Director James Comey's Chief of Staff James Rybicki.
Earlier, on January 10, 2017, BuzzFeed published a version of the dossier that Strzok said was "identical" to what McCain's office had turned over to the FBI. Strzok sent theBuzzFeed-related email at 7:48 PM. At 8:23 PM on the same day, Strzok forwards to Page and several FBI officials an article by the UK outlet The Guardian titled "FBI chief given dossier by John McCain alleging secret Trump-Russia contacts."

Q Research General #11476: Knowingly Edition
Explosive New Flynn Documents Show FBI Goal Was To 'Get Him Fired'
Handwritten notes from the FBI that had been withheld from Michael Flynn and his defense team show that the FBI's goal in investigating and ambushing Flynn was 'to get him fired.'
New documents filed under seal last week by the Department of Justice provide the clearest evidence yet that the investigation and subsequent prosecution of former White House National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was a set-up from the beginning. Handwritten notes from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that had been inappropriately withheld from Flynn's defense team for years show that a key goal of the agents investigating Flynn was "to get him to lie so we can prosecute him or get him fired."
In early 2017, FBI agents planned to question Flynn under false pretenses and without his attorneys present regarding his conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. At the time of those conversations, Flynn was the top foreign policy adviser of the president-elect of the United States. By the time of the ambush FBI interview, Flynn had already been appointed as the White House national security adviser.
In the handwritten FBI notes, the note-taker, whose identity was not made clear in the document production, wrote that an alternate goal is to "get [Flynn] to admit breaking the Logan Act," a reference to a 1799 law restricting communications between private citizens and foreign governments. The law is widely viewed as unconstitutional and has never been used to successfully prosecute a single American citizen. The previously secret notes do not explain that Flynn was not a private citizen, but rather the incoming national security adviser at the time of his conversations with world leaders.
Accusations that Flynn was a traitor to his country who violated the 1799 law gained steam following the criminal leak of top-secret information to Washington Post columnist David Ignatius. Ignatius' sources suggested the routine conversation between a top incoming White House adviser and his foreign counterparts might be a Logan Act violation. As absurd as the suggestion was, Ignatius dutifully parroted it.
News reports indicate U.S. Attorney John Durham is currently investigating the sources of those criminal leaks of top secret national security information to Ignatius. Although the agents who interviewed Flynn initially stated they believed Flynn told them the truth during the Jan. 24 interview, Special Counsel Robert Mueller nonetheless charged Flynn in late 2017 with making false statements to FBI investigators in the interview.
Flynn pleaded guilty to the charge at the time but is currently trying to withdraw that plea, citing ineffective counsel and government corruption in the conduct of his case.
The explosive new documents support Flynn's latest claims that Obama-era Department of Justice (DOJ) and FBI officials had conspired to set him up from the beginning and that they never had any legitimate basis for investigating him.
The author of the handwritten notes filed under seal last week also wrote, "We have a case on Flynn and Russians," and "our goal is to resolve case." Despite those claims of treasonous Russian collusion, Mueller found, after a sprawling, multi-year, multimillion-dollar investigation, that there was zero evidence of illegal collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government to steal the 2016 election from Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
In reality, the only Russian collusion that happened during the 2016 campaign was between the Clinton campaign and a subcontractor it funded, who was at the time working on behalf of a sanctioned Russian oligarch. That agent, former British intelligence operative Christopher Steele, created for the Clinton campaign the entire basis for charges of illegal collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia. That document, known as the Steele dossier, has been thoroughly debunked since it was first released in early January 2017. The Clinton campaign, in cooperation with the Democratic National Committee, secretly funded the creation of that document and its distribution throughout the media. To date, none of its key collusion claims has been corroborated.
Steele's operation became a primary basis for the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation of the Trump campaign. The false allegations contained in the dossier were also used by FBI and DOJ officials to justify four separate spy warrants against Carter Page, a Trump campaign affiliate. The FBI also investigated Flynn as part of this operation.
The FBI notes also show that the author of the document had misgivings about the FBI's conduct in interviewing Flynn.

Here's that Christopher Steele testimony I've been writing about. Steele testified that Clinton crony Strobe Talbott contacted him about dossier in Summer 2016. @carterwpage, who knows Talbott, says the revelation "shocks the conscience."
Steele testified that Talbott hinted that he learned of the dossier work from Victoria Nuland and/or Susan Rice. A Rice spokesperson tells me that is "utterly and completely false." No response from Nuland, who we already know had some interaction with the dossier.

British ex-spy Christopher Steele testified he met with Democratic lawyers during the 2016 presidential election, and one provided him with now-debunked claims about alleged Trump-Russia collusion as he compiled his dossier.
Steele, a former MI6 agent whose salacious and unverified dossier was used by the FBI in its Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act targeting of Trump campaign associate Carter Page, discussed his meetings with two lawyers tied to Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee during a deposition in a British court in mid-March, according to a transcript obtained by the Daily Caller.
Michael Sussman and Marc Elias, two top lawyers for the Perkins Coie law firm, which represented the Clinton campaign and the DNC, played an even more significant role in the Trump-Russia investigation than previously known.
Steele testified Sussman provided him with claims about Alfa Bank's purported ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin during a late July meeting. These allegations made their way into a mid-September 2016 memo that became part of Steele's dossier, although Steele repeatedly misspells "Alfa" as "Alpha." Shortly after writing that memo, Steele met with Elias, who was the general counsel for Clinton's campaign and had personally hired the opposition research firm Fusion GPS in April 2016 on the campaign's behalf. Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson hired Steele in June 2016. It is not known what Steele and Elias discussed at their meeting.

Steele Discloses Previously Unknown Meetings with Clinton Lawyers in British Court
The infamous 'Steele Dossier' has just reached a new level. As the result of a lawsuit brought against Christopher Steele by the Alfa Bank founders, Steele is disclosing more information about the Clinton campaign's involvement in the Russia Hoax. Steele testified in a British court last month and the transcript, which the Daily Caller obtained, is deliciously salacious.
Here's where Alfa Bank comes in to play: "a lawyer representing the DNC and Clinton campaign provided Christopher Steele with information in 2016 regarding an alleged secret communications channel between the Trump organization and a Russian bank," writes Daily Caller. The now-debunked information was Clinton pal Michael Sussman. Sussman was an attorney for the DNC and Clinton campaign.

Q Research General #11448: FLYNN Is Safe Edition
Dossier Author Christopher Steele Had Previously Undisclosed Meetings with Perkins Coie Lawyers, Hillary Clinton's Campaign
Dossier author Christopher Steele had previously undisclosed meetings with DNC lawyers and Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Steele disclosed during a testimony that he met with Perkins Coie partners Michael Sussmann and Marc Elias during the 2016 election.
Steele testified that Michael Sussmann tipped him off to the now-debunked claim that Russian Alfa Bank was secretly communicating with Trump Organization servers.
Steele made the statements during a testimony last month in a defamation lawsuit filed by Russian Alfa Bank.
Via Chuck Ross of the Daily Caller:
A lawyer representing the DNC and Clinton campaign provided Christopher Steele with information in 2016 regarding an alleged secret communications channel between the Trump Organization and a Russian bank, the former spy told a British court last month.
That now-debunked tip, from Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussmann, set off a chain of events that led to Steele publishing a Sept. 14, 2016 memo accusing the founders of the bank, Alfa Bank, of having "illicit" ties to Vladimir Putin. A week after Steele wrote that memo, he had another meeting with Sussmann's colleague, Marc Elias.
Steele disclosed the previously unreported meetings with Sussmann and Elias during testimony in a defamation lawsuit filed against him by the Alfa Bank founders, according to a court transcript obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Steele's testimony about Sussmann and Elias provides insight into how deeply involved the two lawyers were in the Trump investigation, and suggests they helped shape Steele's investigation into possible Russian interference in the 2016 election.
[Steele] revealed that Sussmann, a former Justice Department official, told him during a meeting on July 29, 2016 about suspicious network traffic between the Trump Organization and Alfa Bank. He also said that the theory about the computer server traffic was the catalyst for the dossier memo he would write six weeks later about Alfa Bank.
Recall, Hillary Clinton tweeted out the now-debunked Slate article on October 31, 2016.
"It's time for Trump to answer serious questions about his ties to Russia," Hillary said in a tweet linking to the garbage Slate article about the Russian Alfa Bank.
!)Donald Trump has a secret server. (Yes, Donald Trump)
2) It was set up to communicate privately with a Putin-tied Russian bank called Alfa Bank.
3)When a reporter asked about it, they shut it down.
Christopher Steele compiled over a dozen memos alleging the Russians had blackmail on Trump and that his associates were conspiring with the Kremlin to win the 2016 election.

It's Russia Russia Russia
EXCLUSIVE: Dossier Author Christopher Steele Had Previously Undisclosed Meetings With Lawyers For DNC, Clinton Campaign
Christopher Steele shed new light on his work for the Clinton campaign and DNC, revealing in testimony last month that he met with two lawyers for the Democrats as part of his investigation into Donald Trump.
Steele met with Perkins Coie partners Michael Sussmann and Marc Elias, he testified.
Steele said that Sussmann provided him with the now-debunked tip that a Russian bank had a secret communications channel with the Trump Organization.

Q Research General #11443: Stay Strong POTUS. WRWY Edition
Smoking Gun FBI Emails On Anti-Trump Plots
Emails Suggest Obama FBI Knew McCain Leaked Trump Dossier. We are getting more insight into the thinking of the corrupt FBI officials involved in the plot against Donald Trump - in particular what they knew and when they knew about the smear/leak operation using the shady "dossier." Our new understanding comes from 138 pages of emails between former FBI official Peter Strzok and former FBI attorney Lisa Page. These include an email dated January 10, 2017, in which Strzok said that the version of the dossier published by BuzzFeed was "identical" to the version given to the FBI by McCain and had "differences" from the dossier provided to the FBI by Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson and Mother Jones reporter David Corn. January 10, 2017, is the same day BuzzFeed published the anti-Trump dossier by former British spy Christopher Steele. The emails also show Strzok and other FBI agents mocking President Trump a few weeks before he was inaugurated. In addition, the emails reveal that Strzok communicated with then-Deputy Director Andrew McCabe about the "leak investigation" tied to the Clinton Foundation (the very leak in which McCabe was later implicated).
We received the records in our January 2018 FOIA lawsuit filed after the DOJ failed to respond to a December 2017 request for all communications between Strzok and Page (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:18-cv-00154)). The FBI has only processed the records at a rate of 500 pages per month and has refused to process text messages. At this rate, the production of these communications will not be completed until at least late 2021. The FBI is now using the coronavirus as an excuse to shut down the production of any further records. On January 10, 2017, Strzok, under the subject "RE: Buzzfeed published some of the reports," writes: "Our internet system is blocking the site. I have the pdf via iPhone, but it's 25.6MB. Comparing now. The set is only identical to what [Sen. John] McCain had (it has differences from what was given to us by Corn and Simpson)." Strzok sent the email to Page and several top-ranking FBI officials, including Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, Assistant Director for the Counterintelligence Division Bill Priestap, Deputy Assistant Director of Counterintelligence Jon Moffa, Assistant Director for Public Affairs Michael Kortan, General Counsel James Baker, and Director James Comey's Chief of Staff James Rybicki. Earlier, on January 10, 2017, BuzzFeed published a version of the dossier that Strzok said was "identical" to what McCain's office had turned over to the FBI. Strzok sent the BuzzFeed-related email at 7:48 PM. At 8:23 PM on the same day, Strzok forwards to Page and several FBI officials an article by the UK outlet The Guardian titled "FBI chief given dossier by John McCain alleging secret Trump-Russia contacts."
David Corn was one of Steele's media contacts. Fusion GPS paid Steele, via funds from the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary Clinton's campaign, to write the dossier. In testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee in August 2017, Simpson said he was not aware of any version of the Steele dossier being given to the FBI. While acknowledging he had given the dossier to the FBI, McCain had denied being the source of the BuzzFeed dossier report. But court filings unsealed in March 2019 show the Arizona Republican senator and an associate had shared the dossier with several media outlets. Former State Department official and McCain associate David Kramer said in a December 13, 2017, deposition that the dossier was given to him by Steele and he then provided it to journalists at outlets including CNN, BuzzFeed and The Washington Post. The details were first reported by The Daily Caller.

Q Research General #11428: COVID's Arrow Edition
John Podesta and George Soros Connected to Consortium Behind Russia Collusion Sham Now Pushing Democrat Coronavirus Investigation
Creepy John Podesta and George Soros are connected to a consortium behind the creators of the Steele dossier and the Senate report on Russia collusion - both totally bogus reports. Now they're working on the upcoming investigation into the President's actions with the coronavirus.
Daniel Jones, a former staffer for Democrat Dianne Feinstein, received awards for his efforts in the Democrat's horrible CIA torture report where he was connected to Senate Intelligence Committee staffer James Wolfe. A woman from the New York Times, Ali Watson, almost received a Pulitzer for her reporting on this subject. Watson was the young girl who was reporting classified information in the Times that was given to her by the much older man she was sleeping with, James Wolfe.
Wolfe was eventually arrested for leaking classified information to his younger partner from the NYT and was indicted for lying to the FBI, a much lesser charge, and sentenced to only two months in prison (a significantly minor charge when compared to the illegal leaks he was accused of participating in).
After his work on the bogus Senate CIA torture report, Jones moved on to bigger and better things. In our post in June 2018 we noted that:
The Federalist first reported in February a former staffer for Dem Senator Dianne Feinstein, Daniel Jones was working with Fusion GPS.
A group of about 7-10 wealthy donors from California (Silicon Valley) and New York spent $50 million to fund a Trump-Russia investigation conducted by none other than Christopher Steele, Fusion GPS and a former staffer for Dem Senator Dianne Feinstein named Daniel Jones.
Chuck Ross at the Daily Caller provided more information this week on Jones' actions with Fusion GPS. According to Ross:
Jones told the FBI in March 2017 that he had secured $50 million in funding from a group of wealthy donors and had "secured services of Steele ... and Fusion GPS to continue exposing Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. Presidential election."
Jones also told the bureau he "planned to share the information he obtained with policymakers ... and with the press."
Simpson and Fusion GPS co-founder Peter Fritsch wrote in their recent book, "Crime in Progress," that former Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta was "most helpful" in setting up fundraising meetings for Jones's venture.
"Podesta agreed to contact some friends out west on Jones's behalf and told him to drop his name in talks with other potential supporters," Simpson and Fritsch wrote.
Ross continues:
Jones has not disclosed the funders for TDIP and ADI [the two firms Jones founded]. But the DCNF has confirmed that Open Society Foundation, a non-profit network controlled by billionaire George Soros, contributed $1.5 million in 2017 and 2018 to TDIP. A dark money group called the Fund for a Better Future contributed $2,065,000 to TDIP in 2017. The Silicon Valley Community Foundation gave $500,000 to ADI in 2018, according to tax records.
Jones created Advance Democracy Inc. (ADI) and The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP) as nonprofits. These two firms paid New Knowledge, a cyber security firm that contributed to a 2018 Senate Intelligence Committee report about Russian disinformation, nearly $500,000 in 2018.

Q Research General #11423: The War Goes On Anon and On Anon Edition
Former Obama DNI James Clapper Was Upset that Mitch McConnell Would Not Sit for Briefing on His BS Russian Conspiracies
Earlier this week we discovered the Trump-Russia entire dossier was completely fabricated.
Dossier author Christopher Steele admitted he destroyed his notes and "wiped" his computer after creating the junk dossier.
And the Comey FBI and Obama DOJ ran with the dossier anyway in order to destroy and remove Donald Trump from office.
This was a huge development.
And Deep State operatives linked to John Podesta GOT PAID to say it was legit!
Now a new book is coming out by David Rohde that claims former corrupt DNI James Clapper was upset that GOP Leader would not sit for a briefing on his BS Russian conspriracies.
Of course, Paul Ryan was more than willing to sit for the absolute garbage briefing.
McConnell would not sit for the briefing until September of 2016.
We now know that Russia spent a grand total of 100,000 on Facebook ads during the election which was meaningless.
And we know the Russian dossier was complete bullsh*t.
Clapper should be jailed with John Brennan
The Washington Examiner reported:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's apparent lack of enthusiasm to combat Russian interference in the 2016 election changed spy chief James Clapper's opinion of the top Republican.
According to David Rohde's recently published book, In Deep: The FBI, the CIA and the Truth about America's "Deep State," McConnell repeatedly told the Obama administration he did not have time to be briefed on Russian interference. In late summer 2016, President Barack Obama asked intelligence officials to brief the four top Democrats and Republicans in Congress on the election meddling before it became public. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, House Speaker Paul Ryan, and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi quickly received the briefings, the book said.
"When Clapper called McConnell to set up the briefing, he did not respond. McConnell finally received the briefing in early September," Rohde wrote.
Clapper, the director of national intelligence from 2010 to January 2017, said he was surprised that some Republicans, particularly McConnell, did not take election interference more seriously.

Q Research General #11403: Those You Trust The Most Edition
Chris Steele "WIPED" ALL OF HIS NOTES - The Trump-Russia Dossier was a COMPLETE SCAM - Used by FBI and DOJ to Remove Trump!
In 2017 our very first reaction to the Steele dossier on January 11, 2017 was that it was completely farcical and filled with complete lies.
Here is our reaction at The Gateway Pundit back on January 11, 2017:
Here is the latest Fake News lie:
They actually believe this crap-
Trump partook in "golden showers" in Russia with prostitutes on a bed Obama once slept on... Russia then blackmailed Trump, not by asking for money or influence in his business deals, but by forcing him to run for president against all odds and win?
Here is the story that the CIA and idiots in the FAKE NEWS Media are pushing on America-
Here's what they want us to believe - Let's recount:
Now today we find out the entire dossier was completely made up.
And the dossier author Christopher Steele admitted he destroyed his notes and "wiped" his computer.

It Appears John Brennan Pulled a Deep State Move to
Benefit Hillary Clinton
Matt Vespa @mvespa1
Apr 24, 2020 4:30 AM
"A few days ago, the liberal media jumped for glee, a new report from the Senate Intelligence Committee appears to confirm that Russia meddled in the 2016 election. To be more accurate, they confirmed what some in the intelligence committee had released in 2017. I mean, I just shrug. For me, there was never a doubt that the Russians tried to interfere, I just don't think $100,000 in Facebook memes was enough to sway the election. Also, there remains zero evidence of a Trump-Kremlin collusion plot during the 2016 election. Foreign governments interfering in other nation's elections is nothing new, sorry. It's not. Can we move on from this? The US did this often in the Cold War era and during the 2014 Israeli elections. Russia still does it often with its former Soviet neighbors. Welcome to geopolitics, liberal media. And folks, like Deep State Ken here from NBC News, just need to go under a rock and stay there for the ensuing three centuries for peddling this collusion myth, which was solely based on a document-the Steele dossier-that has been roundly refuted as inaccurate garbage. It is, after all, a piece of biased political opposition research funded by the Clinton campaign and compiled by former MI6 spook Christopher Steele. For two years, these liberal journalists engulfed the nation in a fairy tale. And this dossier, also known and the Trump dossier, was used to secure a spy warrant against former Trump campaign aide Carter Page, whose life has been ruined by the allegation that he was somehow the Dark Lord of the Sith in this alleged mythical plot. It was a hoax, a fantastic lie that was never at any point backed up by any solid evidence. It was just liberal hot air and bias keeping this corpse of a narrative alive, until ex-Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz shot it all to hell, a political double-tap."

EXCLUSIVE: Dossier Author Testified His Emails Were 'Wiped,' He No Longer Has Documents Related To Primary Source
Christopher Steele told a British court last month that he no longer has documents and other information from his meetings with the main source for his Trump dossier, suggesting that the former British spy has no way of backing up his side in a dispute with the Justice Department's inspector general (IG), according to a deposition transcript obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Steele also told the court that his communications regarding the dossier, including with Fusion GPS, were "wiped" in December 2016 and January 2017, the transcript shows. The former MI6 officer made the disclosures during a March 17-18 deposition in a defamation case related to the dossier. The DCNF obtained a transcript of the deposition. Steele suggested in a Dec. 10 statement that he had evidence that would shed light on what his main dossier source told him back in 2016, when Steele was working for the firm Fusion GPS to investigate the Trump campaign. Steele's statement was a response to an IG report released the day before that said that Steele's source - dubbed the "Primary Sub-Source" - told the FBI in January 2017 that Steele misrepresented or embellished information in the dossier. That bombshell severely undermined Steele's report, which the FBI used as part of its investigation into the Trump campaign.
In a rebuttal to the IG, Steele's lawyers disputed what the dossier source purportedly told the FBI, and said that the source's debriefings to Steele "were meticulously documented and recorded." They also asserted that if Steele had been given a chance to respond to the IG report, "the statements by the 'Primary Sub-Source' would be put in a different light." It is unclear if Steele made audio or video recordings of the debriefings with the source, or if the retired spy was referring to written or electronic documents. It is also unclear whether Steele got rid of the information himself, or if it was lost through other means. Steele's lawyer did not respond to a request for comment.
The status of the information was revealed during an exchange Steele had on March 18' with Hugh Tomlinson, a lawyer for Petr Aven, German Khan, and Mikhail Fridman, the owners of Alfa Bank. The three Russian bankers are suing Steele for defamation over a memo in the dossier that accused them of making illicit payments to Vladimir Putin. Tomlinson pressed Steele over the accuracy of his memo, as well as his relationship with "Primary Sub-Source," the transcript shows. The lawyer asked Steele about the existence of the documents and recordings that his attorneys mentioned in their rebuttal to the IG report. "But none of these documents exist, so they have all been destroyed?" a lawyer asked Steele. "They no longer exist,"' Steele said.
Steele indicated that many other records related to the dossier were deleted, including from a personal email account he used for the Fusion GPS project. "As I understand your position, you have no contemporaneous notes or emails, save for your notes of interactions with the FBI; is that right?" Tomlinson asked. "I believe that is true, yes," Steele replied. Steele said he had no records related to the creation of his dossier memos, including "Report 112" from the dossier, which dealt with the Alfa Bank owners. "You have no record of anything, have you?" Tomlinson asked. "I haven't got any records relating to the creation of 112," said Steele. "Or indeed any of the other memoranda?" "No, they were wiped in early January 2017." Steele said that a Hushmail account he used in late December 2016 was "wiped" clean. He also said that communications with Fusion GPS on his company's computer network were scrubbed on Jan. 5, 2017. BuzzFeed News published Steele's dossier five days later.

FISA Docs Show John Kerry's State Dept. Was Key Player in Russia Collusion Hoax
Newly declassified documents spotlight the role of John Kerry's State Department in fueling the FBI's dubious Russia collusion probe, showing it was the State Department that provided "information" leading to the controversial surveillance of Carter Page.
Last Thursday, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham released a trove of documents from the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation into Trump's campaign, including a less redacted version of the Obama administration's FISA warrant applications to spy on Page, who served as a tangential adviser to Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
The disclosures focus renewed attention on the text of the warrant, which begins by claiming Page is "an agent of a foreign power" and that "the status of the target was determined in or about October 2016 from information provided by the U.S. Department of State."
The newly declassified sections underscore that the FBI under its disgraced former chief, James Comey, relied heavily on the Christopher Steele dossier alleging debunked Russian collision charges. The dossier was produced by Fusion GPS, which was paid for its anti-Trump work by Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
The centrality of the State Department in providing "information" purporting that Page was a Russian agent raises questions in light of previous reporting exposing connections on spreading the dossier claims between elements of Kerry's State Department and Steele, as well as ties to longtime Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal and Cody Shearer, who is a controversial figure long tied to various Clinton scandals.
One previously declassified FBI document contains a charge that Victoria Nuland, a former Hillary Clinton associate who served as a senior State Department official, was in communication with Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson.
Also David Kramer, a long-time adviser to late Senator John McCain, revealed in testimony that he met with two Obama administration officials to inquire about whether the anti-Trump dossier authored by was being taken seriously. This was before Kramer obtained the dossier and McCain passed it officially to the FBI.
In a deposition on Dec. 13, 2017 that was later posted online, Kramer said that McCain specifically asked him in early December 2016 to meet about the dossier with Victoria Nuland, a senior official in John Kerry's State Department, as well as an official from the National Security Council.
Nuland's role in the dossier episode has been the subject of some controversy for her.
In their book, Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin's War on America and the Election of Donald Trump, authors and reporters Michael Isikoff and David Corn write that Nuland gave the green light for the FBI to first meet with Steele regarding his dossier's claims. It was at that meeting that Steele initially reported his dossier charges to the FBI, the book relates.
Steele sought out Rome-based FBI Special Agent Michael Gaeta, with whom he had worked on a previous case. Before Gaeta met with Steele on July 5, 2016, the book relates that the FBI first secured the support of Nuland, who at the time was assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs specializing in Russia.
Regarding the arrangements for Steele's initial meeting with the FBI about the dossier claims, Isikoff and Corn report:

Q Research General #11365: Meme Fodder MSM Meltdown Edition
Senate report: Kremlin support for Trump in 2016 is accurate
Tue Apr 21st, 2020 3:30pm
WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. intelligence agencies' conclusion that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to back Donald Trump's campaign over that of rival Hillary Clinton was based on sound intelligence-gathering processes and analysis, the Senate Intelligence Committee said in a report released Tuesday.
While reviewing intelligence agencies' assessment of the Kremlin's interference, the committee considered two questions: Did the final conclusion meet the task given to the agencies by President Barack Obama, and was the analysis supported by the intelligence presented?
"We found the ICA met both criteria," Intelligence Chairman Richard M. Burr, R-N.C., said in a statement, referring to the Intelligence Community Assessment that was presented to Obama on Dec. 30, 2016, in a classified form. An unclassified version was made public on Jan. 6, 2017.
The assessment "reflects strong tradecraft, sound analytical reasoning, and proper justification of disagreement in the one analytical line where it occurred," Burr said. "The Committee found no reason to dispute the Intelligence Community's conclusions."
The disagreement refers to the "high confidence" the CIA and the FBI expressed at that time in their assessment that Russian President Vladimir Putin had expressed a preference for Trump over Clinton. The National Security Agency, which also participated in the assessment, said it had "moderate confidence" in that conclusion.
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chairman of the committee, said the intelligence assessment "correctly found the Russians interfered in our 2016 election to hurt Secretary Clinton and help the candidacy of Donald Trump."
The committee's review of highly classified material and underlying information "found that this and other conclusions were well-supported," Warner said. "There is certainly no reason to doubt that the Russians' success in 2016 is leading them to try again in 2020, and we must not be caught unprepared."
The Senate Intelligence Committee has for years been examining the entire effort mounted by Moscow during the 2016 election. Its previous reports addressed how the Kremlin attacked U.S. election infrastructure, Moscow's use of social media platforms to confuse and anger American voters, and the U.S. response to Russian efforts. The report released Tuesday is the review of the intelligence assessment. The fifth and final volume will address counterintelligence findings.
The heavily redacted report also found that the intelligence agencies had made a "clear argument that the manner and aggressiveness of Russia's election interference was unprecedented."
Although Obama had asked then-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper to also assess if there was foreign interference in the 2008 and 2012 elections, intelligence officials were "working under significant time constraint" to complete such a review, the Senate report said.
The final intelligence assessment did not include any information from former British spy Christopher Steele - whose allegations about blackmail information held by Moscow against Trump have not been proven - and none of the conclusions was based on the unproven information, the Senate report said. A summary of Steele's material was appended in an annex at the insistence of FBI officials, the report said.
The Senate Intelligence Committee's work is the only congressional review that began in the immediate aftermath of the 2016 election and is still ongoing. The House Intelligence Committee began a similar review under then-Chairman Devin Nunes, R-Calif., but it devolved into a partisan fight, with the Republicans on the panel concluding in March 2018 that Moscow did not attempt to assist the Trump campaign.
The House probe was compromised from the start after Nunes in March 2017 made a then-secret trip to the White House to look at documents alleging that Trump campaign aide Carter Page had been under FBI surveillance and his identity had been unmasked by former Obama administration officials. After the incident, Nunes recused himself from the committee's probe of Russian interference, and his allegations eventually fell apart.
The Justice Department's inspector general in December 2019 found that the FBI's request for surveillance on Page was flawed and that the agency's overall process for seeking court approval under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was riddled with errors.
Trump himself has continued to falsely allege that Russian interference in the 2016 election was a hoax and that the real culprit may have been Ukraine.

Crooked Richard Burr Says He Stands by His Junk Report that Russia Interfered to Help Trump in 2016 Despite Recent Findings the Show the Opposite Took Place
This guy is as dumb as he is crooked.
Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC) released another report on Tuesday with his buddy Mark Warner (D-VA) saying they stand with their junk reports that Vladimir Putin interfered in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump.
Richard Burr was recently accused of insider trading for dumping his hotel stocks before the coronavirus panic hit the US.
Burr is the same senator who harassed the Trump family and subpoenaed Donald Trump Jr. to testify in the junk Russia collusion hoax.
This horrible Republican senator also extended his bogus investigation of Russia collusion well into 2019 in order to abuse the Trump family, the Trump campaign and the Trump administration.
Earlier this month the DOJ released info that Comey's FBI knew the Hillary Clinton-funded dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele was bogus Russian disinformation - but they used it anyway to spy on Trump's campaign.

Q Research General 11359: "They Had to Do This Under Pressure, Good Job" Edition
Clinton-Funded Russian Disinformation Drove The Witch Hunt Against Trump
The accusation that Donald Trump "colluded" with Russia to steal the 2016 presidential election was always an elaborate and perfidious hoax. James Comey's FBI knew this all along but managed to conceal it. Until now.
Newly declassified documents reveal that the anti-Trump "dossier" was substantially the product of Russian disinformation. It was sedulously fed to a gullible and maladroit ex-British spy, Christopher Steele, who was being paid by the Hillary Clinton Campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to gather and disseminate the bogus allegations.
It was the "dossier" that fueled the FBI and special counsel investigations of President Trump that battered his presidency. The largely phony series of Steele memos were also "central and essential" to gaining by deception four successive warrants to spy on a former Trump campaign adviser, Carter Page. His Fourth Amendment rights were egregiously violated by surveillance warrants unlawfully obtained.
For the better part of 4 years, top officials at the FBI and the intelligence community kept their knowledge and evidence of the Russian disinformation hidden from congress, judges on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), and the American people.
Instead of revealing the truth, Trump's adversaries -with significant assistance from a hopelessly biased and clueless media- pursued a relentless scheme to destroy him with the narrative that he was a Russian asset who somehow conspired with Moscow to rig the election in his favor.
Recently, when Ambassador Richard Grenell was named acting Director of National Intelligence, he moved swiftly to unmask the insidious coverup of this heretofore classified information. He is to be commended for doing so, as are Sens. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., and Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, for their persistence in getting this stunning material declassified.
After finally securing access to the declassified documents, Johnson bluntly described some senior officials at the FBI as "total and complete snakes." That is an understatement. Comey and his confederates deliberately exploited what they knew to be untrue and discredited information as a pretext to spy on the Trump campaign and investigate the president.
Evidence that the FBI was aware of the Russian fabrications was discovered by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz and contained in footnotes inside his voluminous report released in December. But those footnotes remained redacted as "classified" until Grenell ordered that they be made public.
The footnotes show that, once the FBI learned early in its Trump-Russia investigation that their case was built on little more than disinformation, this exculpatory evidence was knowingly and willfully buried by the bureau. Instead of shutting down its entire probe and withdrawing its surveillance warrant from the FISC, Comey's FBI escalated its case against the president.
A special counsel was appointed, but no evidence of a "collusion" conspiracy was discovered -because it never existed. It was a fiction peddled by Moscow to the FBI through Steele, who was being paid by the Clinton Campaign and the DNC.
In my 2018 book, The Russia Hoax, I argued, "There was never any plausible evidence that Trump or his campaign collaborated with Russia to win the presidency, and the FBI had no legal basis to initiate its investigation." (Page 286) In an interview with Fox News several days ago, Attorney General William Barr confirmed that the FBI's probe was launched "without any basis."
I also explained how the allegations against Trump were likely the product of a disinformation campaign, "compiled by a Russian determined to invent a collection of lies for the purpose of creating mischief." (Page 128)
My 2019 book, Witch Hunt: The Story Of The Greatest Mass Delusion In American Political History, details how the FBI hid the origins of the fictional "dossier." The "collusion" narrative was a conspiracy in and of itself, fabricated as a political instrument and then weaponized against Trump by unscrupulous government officials. The "dossier" was the centerpiece of the effort to frame Trump.
In Chapter 2 entitled, "Clinton Collusion," I wrote, "Either the dossier was invented out of whole cloth, or Steele was fed preposterous disinformation by Russian sources, who must have laughed at their handiwork and the gullibility of the recipient." (Page 43)
Grassley summed it up best when he issued this statement: "These footnotes confirm that there was a direct Russian disinformation campaign in 2016, and there were ties between Russian intelligence and a presidential campaign -the Clinton campaign, not Trump's.(cont.)

Q Research General 11348: The American Spirit is Amazing Edition
Newly Declassified Evidence: Russia Didn't Try to Help Elect Trump in 2016
It has become conventional "wisdom" on the left that Russia wanted Trump to win in 2016, and therefore they helped his campaign. The latter belief was debunked by the Mueller report-though many on the left still believe it. The theory that Russia wanted Trump to win has also persisted, but newly declassified evidence suggesting that Russia was spreading false information about Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign "is calling into question the Obama administration's intelligence assessment that Moscow was trying to help the Republican win the 2016 election," according to a report from Just The News's John Solomon.
Evidence recently declassified by DNI Richard Grenell and Attorney General Barr revealed that as early as July 2016 British intelligence operative and FBI informant Christopher Steele was involved in an FBI investigation of Trump. The same evidence showed that the FBI was repeatedly warned that Steele was susceptible to Russia disinformation and that U.S. intelligence had "concluded some of his Hillary Clinton-funded dossier's claims about Trump were false information planted by Moscow's intelligence services."
Experts agreed that efforts by Russia to provide false negative information about Trump to Christopher Steele "undercut the notion that Moscow was trying to defeat Clinton and help Trump."
It has become widely accepted that Russia's hacking of DNC emails meant that they were trying to help then-candidate Trump win in 2016, but this newly declassified information supports the other theory-that Russia was simply trying to sow division and election discord in the United States.
Daniel Hoffman, the CIA's former station chief in Moscow and one of America's premier experts on Russia spy tradecraft, said he believed all along the Obama administration's assessment was wrong and the newly declassified evidence confirms his suspicions.
"The question of whether Russia favored Clinton or Trump is superfluous," he said. "There is no evidence Russia ever had the throw weight to influence the outcome of the 2016 election, the 2017 DNI report confirmed that.
"The reason for Russia's interference in our electoral process was more simple. Putin hates Democrats, and he hates Republicans because what scares him the most is democracy - freedom, liberty - which continued to be an inspiration to the Russian people whom he oppresses," Hoffman told Just the News.
Rep. Devin Nunes says he believes the Obama administration's intelligence assessment was as flawed as the Steele dossier and the Mueller report.
Was the assessment flawed, or deliberately wrong to sabotage Trump?

April 16, 2020
The Honorable Christopher A. Wray
Director
Federal Bureau of Investigation
935 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20535
Dear Director Wray:
On January 28, 2020, we wrote to Attorney General Barr and requested the declassification of four footnotes in the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) report about the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Crossfire Hurricane investigation.[1] Since then, we received declassified versions of those and other footnotes, and they reveal disturbing facts about the FBI's investigation: the Crossfire Hurricane team's investigative file included at least two intelligence reports stating that key parts of the reporting from Christopher Steele-reporting that "played a central and essential role" in the decision to request FISA orders[2]-were part of a Russian disinformation campaign.[3]
The information in the now-declassified footnotes also directly contradicts statements provided by FBI officials in the OIG report. Specifically, William "Bill" Priestap, the Assistant Director for the Counterintelligence Division who was "ultimately responsible for the [Crossfire Hurricane] investigation,"[4] told OIG that "the FBI 'didn't have any indication whatsoever' by May 2017 that the Russians were running a disinformation campaign through the Steele election reporting."[5] The investigation's Supervisory Intelligence Analyst also told OIG that "he had no information as of June 2017 that Steele's election reporting source network had been penetrated or compromised."[6] Yet, in January 2017, the FBI received a report that part of Steele's reporting "was part of a Russian disinformation campaign" and, in February 2017, the FBI received a second report that another part of Steele's reporting was "the product of [Russian Intelligence Services] infiltrate[ing] a source into the network."[7] We are deeply troubled by the Crossfire Hurricane team's awareness of and apparent indifference to Russian disinformation, as well as by the grossly inaccurate statements by the FBI official in charge of the investigation and its supervisory intelligence analyst.
These recently declassified footnotes raise another issue of significant concern: what other parts of the FBI's investigation were infected by Russian disinformation? For example, one footnote explains that Russian Intelligence Services targeted Steele's company for penetration.[8] Another footnote shows that, as early as October 2016 and the same time it was preparing its first FISA application, the FBI became aware that one of Steele's key sources was either a Russian intelligence officer or otherwise linked to Russian intelligence.[9] In other words, the FBI knew that Russian intelligence was targeting Christopher Steele's company, that Steele relied on sources affiliated with Russian intelligence, and at least two of Steele's reports were described as the product of a Russian disinformation campaign. Because these facts show the intention, means, and ability to plant Russian disinformation in Steele's reporting, they suggest that the prevalence of such disinformation in the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation may have been widespread.
For these reasons, please provide the following no later than April 30, 2020:
1. All intelligence records (e.g., reporting, products, memoranda, etc.), foreign or domestic, received or reviewed by the Crossfire Hurricane team.[10] For any such intelligence record no longer in FBI's possession, please identify the record, the entity that provided the record, and the date of FBI's review.
2. All FBI records (e.g., 302s, ECs, etc.) addressing these intelligence products.
3. A list of all intelligence records requested but not received or reviewed by the Crossfire Hurricane team.
Please send all unclassified material directly to each Committee. In keeping with the requirements of Executive Order 13526, if any of the responsive documents do contain classified information, please segregate all unclassified material within the classified documents, provide all unclassified information directly to each Committee, and provide a classified addendum to the Office of Senate Security. Although our Committees comply with all laws and regulations governing the handling of classified information, they are not bound, absent prior agreement, by any handling restrictions.
Should you have any questions, please contact Joseph Folio of Chairman Johnson's Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee staff at (202) 224-4751 or Joshua Flynn-Brown of Chairman Grassley's Finance Committee staff at (202) 224-4515.

Bill Priestap, the FBI's former chief of counterintelligence, told Justice Department investigators he agreed not to disclose information he learned about Christopher Steele as a precondition for a meeting with British government officials regarding the former MI6 officer, according to recently declassified information.
Priestap and his deputy, Peter Strzok, traveled to the United Kingdom in November and December 2016 to assess the reliability of Steele, a former MI6 officer whose dossier the FBI used for its investigation into the Trump campaign.
Priestap and Strzok received mixed reviews about Steele from his former colleagues, according to a Justice Department inspector general's report on the FBI's probe.
Some vouched for Steele's honesty and integrity, but several others questioned his judgement and "lack of self-awareness." Some colleagues described Steele as "smart," and a "person of integrity," their notes said. (RELATED: FBI Received Evidence Of Russian Disinformation In Steele Dossier)
"[I]f he reported it, he believed it," one contact said.
But their notes also reflected negative reviews on Steele. He "[d]emonstrates lack of self-awareness, poor judgment," was "underpinned by poor judgment," and "[r]eporting in good faith, but not clear what he would have done to validate," one source said.

FBI Official Withheld Negative Information About Christopher Steele Because Of Agreement With Brits
Bill Priestap, the FBI's former chief of counterintelligence, told Justice Department investigators he agreed not to disclose information he learned about Christopher Steele as a precondition for a meeting with British government officials regarding the former MI6 officer, according to recently declassified information.
Priestap and his deputy, Peter Strzok, traveled to the United Kingdom in November and December 2016 to assess the reliability of Steele, a former MI6 officer whose dossier the FBI used for its investigation into the Trump campaign.
Priestap and Strzok received mixed reviews about Steele from his former colleagues, according to a Justice Department inspector general's report on the FBI's probe.
Some vouched for Steele's honesty and integrity, but several others questioned his judgement and "lack of self-awareness." Some colleagues described Steele as "smart," and a "person of integrity," their notes said.
"[I]f he reported it, he believed it," one contact said.
But their notes also reflected negative reviews on Steele. He "[d]emonstrates lack of self-awareness, poor judgment," was "underpinned by poor judgment," and "[r]eporting in good faith, but not clear what he would have done to validate," one source said.
Priestap and Strzok embarked on the fact-finding mission weeks after the FBI had already used Steele's anti-Trump dossier to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) order against Carter Page.
They shared those assessments with the FBI team conducting the Trump probe, but did not include the information in Steele's so-called Delta file, which the FBI maintains for its confidential sources.
Because the information was not in Steele's file, it was not used to assess Steele's validity as an FBI source for the Trump investigation. The FBI also did not share the information in three additional applications for FISA orders against Page.
Priestap was asked during an interview with the IG why the negative Steele information was not included in his file, or disclosed to the FISA Court.

https://justthenews.com/government/congress/sens-johnson-and-grassley-ask-fbi-crossfire-hurricane-materials#.Xpj77BFW_sA.twitter
Republican Senate committee chairman demanded Thursday that FBI Director Christopher Wray turn over new materials from the bureau's bungled Russia collusion probe after newly declassified evidence raised new questions about agents' failure to vet a key informant.
In a letter to Wray, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs chairman, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, the Senate Committee on Finance chairman, expressed concerns the investigation was tainted by "Russian disinformation."
The FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation filed inaccurate FISA warrants while probing whether people affiliated with the Trump campaign were involved in Russian attempts to meddle in the 2016 election, according to the Department of Justice Inspector General.
Johnson and Grassley said declassified footnotes from the FBI's Inspector General showed that "the Crossfire Hurricane team's investigative file included at least two intelligence reports stating that key parts of the reporting from Christopher Steele-reporting that 'played a central and essential role' in the decision to request FISA orders -were part of a Russian disinformation campaign."
The two senators said "the FBI knew that Russian intelligence was targeting Christopher Steele's company, that Steele relied on sources affiliated with Russian intelligence, and at least two of Steele's reports were described as the product of a Russian disinformation campaign."
Grassley and Johnson said that Russian disinformation in the investigation could potentially "have been widespread."
Their letter indicates that the FBI should provide the Crossfire Hurricane materials by the end of April.

FARRELL: FBI IG Redactions Should Have Been The Headlines
It is becoming ever more clear that the "Russian collusion" narrative against Donald Trump was the result of a Kremlin disinformation effort transmitted by a dossier paid for by the Clinton campaign and knowingly pushed into the justice system by willing allies at the FBI. The more we learn about the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign, the more troubling it gets.
In recent weeks, there have been several important revelations about the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation that further damages the reputation of the Bureau and others involved in the case. The notion that there was any collusion between the Trump team and Russia has, of course, long been debunked. But now it seems more likely that the real collusion was between the Kremlin and Trump's detractors.
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report on FBI misconduct was supposed to clear up these questions. But key aspects of that report were redacted, supposedly "in the interests of national security." Yet, as in other cases, when the redactions are revealed, it turns out they have more to do with saving the investigators from embarrassment than protecting sources and methods.
Key here is information that was buried in footnotes of the Horowitz report, and recently partly declassified through the efforts of Senators Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Ron Johnson (R-WI). They show that the anti-Trump dossier compiled by former British intelligence operative Christopher Steele drew from sources traceable back to Russian intelligence.
One U.S. agency assessed that the sections of Steele's work which detailed Donald Trump's supposedly scandalous behavior during a 2013 trip to Moscow were "false" and "the product of RIS [Russian Intelligence Services] 'infiltrating a source into the network' of a [redacted] who compiled a dossier of information on Trump's activities." Why was this critical information hidden in a redacted footnote in the Horowitz report? It should have been a major headline, but that's exactly why someone redacted it.
Another section dealing with former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's supposed trip to Prague as part of the imaginary collusion scheme was criticized by an intelligence agency which "did not have high confidence in this subset of Steele's reporting and assessed that the referenced material was part of a Russian disinformation campaign to denigrate US foreign relations."

Grassley And Johnson Request FBI Director Wray Turn Over All FBI Records On Crossfire Hurricane
Two powerful GOP Senators sent a letter Thursday to FBI Director Christopher Wray requesting all the records from the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane team, which investigated the now debunked theory that President Donald Trump's campaign conspired with Russia during the 2016 election.
Sen. Ron Johnson, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, who have been investigating the circumstances surrounding the FBI's investigation and alleged malfeasance in obtaining Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Warrants to spy on then Trump campaign official Carter Page, made the request in a letter.
The senators stated in the letter that "on January 28, 2020, we wrote to Attorney General Barr and requested the declassification of four footnotes in the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) report about the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Crossfire Hurricane investigation."
"Since then, we received declassified versions of those and other footnotes, and they reveal disturbing facts about the FBI's investigation: the Crossfire Hurricane team's investigative file included at least two intelligence reports stating that key parts of the reporting from Christopher Steele-reporting that "played a central and essential role" in the decision to request FISA orders -were part of a Russian disinformation campaign," the pair added.
The Senator's noted that the information in the now-declassified footnotes from Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz's December report investigating the FBI's probe into the Trump campaign "also directly contradicts statements provided by FBI officials in the OIG report."
The footnotes revealed that former senior Obama officials, including members of the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane team knew the dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele during the 2016 election was Russian disinformation to target Trump and his administration.

Disclosures: Russian Disinformation in Steele Dossier Fueled Collusion Probe by Obama, Comey, FBI
The FBI heavily relied on a Democrat-funded dossier by former British spy Christopher Steele to spy on Donald Trump's presidential campaign, even after learning that the document likely contained Russian disinformation, evidence declassified this week revealed.
On Wednesday, Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley (IA) and Ron Johnson (WI) released newly declassified footnotes from the December 2019 Department of Justice (DOJ) inspector general (IG) report about the FBI's Russia collusion probe. The footnotes indicate that the FBI may have assisted Moscow in interfering in the American elections by relying on Russian disinformation contained in Steele's infamous "pee dossier" to carry out its collusion investigation.
FBI officials began their investigation during former President Barack Obama's administration while the agency, a component of DOJ, was under the leadership of James Comey. The probe, which ultimately found no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia, carried into the current administration.
Steele's dossier served as the FBI's primary source for its collusion allegations, even though the agency knew Russian disinformation had tainted the information in the document. In other words, the Democrat-funded, infamous "pee dossier" that fueled the FBI's collusion investigation relied on Russian lies.
A press release issued by Grassley and Johnson on Wednesday noted:
Despite multiple reports in 2017 warning that claims in an anti-Trump dossier [by Steele] were "false" and "part of a Russian disinformation campaign," the FBI continued to rely on the Democrat-funded opposition research to spy on a Trump campaign aide.
The two senators added in a joint statement:
As we can see from these now-declassified footnotes in the IG's report, Russian intelligence was aware of the dossier before the FBI even began its investigation and the FBI had reports in hand that their central piece of evidence was most likely tainted with Russian disinformation.
...
[DOJ] Inspector General Michael Horowitz and his team did what neither the FBI nor Special Counsel Mueller cared to do: examine and investigate corruption at the FBI, the sources of the Steele dossier, how it was disseminated, and reporting that it contained Russian disinformation.
As early as July 2016, Russian operatives were aware that Steele was investigating then-presidential candidate Trump, the footnotes showed.
That year, the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democrat party hired Steele to compile information on the Trump-Russia collusion allegations.
FBI officials ignored warnings in January 2017 that Russian intelligence operatives may have targeted and collected data on Steele's firm, Orbis Business Intelligence, the newly released information revealed.
According to the declassified footnotes, a February 2017 intelligence report also warned the FBI that Russian intelligence officers had infiltrated Steele's network of sources that contributed to the dossier.

Grassley And Johnson Request FBI Director Wray Turn Over All FBI Records On Crossfire Hurricane
By Sara Carter -April 16, 2020
Two powerful GOP Senators sent a letter Thursday to FBI Director Christopher Wray requesting all the records from the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane team, which investigated the now debunked theory that President Donald Trump's campaign conspired with Russia during the 2016 election.
Sen. Ron Johnson, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and Sen. Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, who have been investigating the circumstances surrounding the FBI's investigation and alleged malfeasance in obtaining Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Warrants to spy on then Trump campaign official Carter Page, made the request in a letter.
The senators stated in the letter that "on January 28, 2020, we wrote to Attorney General Barr and requested the declassification of four footnotes in the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) report about the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Crossfire Hurricane investigation."
"Since then, we received declassified versions of those and other footnotes, and they reveal disturbing facts about the FBI's investigation: the Crossfire Hurricane team's investigative file included at least two intelligence reports stating that key parts of the reporting from Christopher Steele-reporting that "played a central and essential role" in the decision to request FISA orders -were part of a Russian disinformation campaign," the pair added.
The Senator's noted that the information in the now-declassified footnotes from Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz's December report investigating the FBI's probe into the Trump campaign "also directly contradicts statements provided by FBI officials in the OIG report."

Further, those partially declassified footnotes reveal that those senior intelligence officials were aware of the disinformation when they included the dossier in the Obama administration's Intelligence Communities Assessment (ICA).
Johnson and Grassley said they were "deeply troubled by the Crossfire Hurricane team's awareness of and apparent indifference to Russian disinformation, as well as by the grossly inaccurate statements by the FBI official in charge of the investigation and its supervisory intelligence analyst."
Further, the recently declassified footnotes raise numerous other issues of "significant concern."
"What other parts of the FBI's investigation were infected by Russian disinformation? ...The FBI knew that Russian intelligence was targeting Christopher Steele's company, that Steele relied on sources affiliated with Russian intelligence, and at least two of Steele's reports were described as the product of a Russian disinformation campaign. Because these facts show the intention, means, and ability to plant Russian disinformation in Steele's reporting, they suggest that the prevalence of such disinformation in the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation may have been widespread."

The Honorable Christopher A. Wray
Director
Federal Bureau of Investigation
935 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20535
Dear Director Wray:
On January 28, 2020, we wrote to Attorney General Barr and requested the declassification of four footnotes in the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) report about the Federal Bureau oflnvestigation's (FBI) Crossfire Hurricane investigation.
Since then, we received declassified versions of those and other footnotes, and they reveal disturbing facts about the FBI's investigation: the Crossfire Hurricane team's investigative file included at least two intelligence reports stating that key parts of the reporting from Christopher Steele-reporting that "played a central and essential role" in the decision to request FISA orders -were part of a Russian disinformation campaign.
The information in the now-declassified footnotes also directly contradicts statements provided by FBI officials in the OIG report. Specifically, William "Bill" Priestap, the Assistant Director for the Counterintelligence Division who was "ultimately responsible for the [Crossfire
Hurricane] investigation.?" told OIG that "the FBI 'didn't have any indication whatsoever' by May 2017 that the Russians were running a disinformation campaign through the Steele election reporting."
The investigation's Supervisory Intelligence Analyst also told OIG that "he had no information as of June 2017 that Steele's election reporting source network had been penetrated or compromised.:" Yet, in January 2017, the FBI received a report that part of Steele's reporting
"was part of a Russian disinformation campaign" and, in February 2017, the FBI received a second report that another part of Steele' s reporting was "the product of [Russian Intelligence Services] infiltrate[ing] a source into the network."? We are deeply troubled by the Crossfire
Hurricane team's awareness of and apparent indifference to Russian disinformation, as well as by the grossly inaccurate statements by the FBI official in charge of the investigation and its supervisory intelligence analyst.

Devin Nunes: Latest Declassified Footnotes Show Obama Regime Lied in Their ICA Report - Omitted Critical Information
Rep. Devin Nunes joined Matt Gaetz on Hannity on Wednesday night to discuss the latest declassified footnotes from IG Horowitz's Report revealing multiple warnings about Hillary Clinton's phony Russia dossier used to spy on the Trump Campaign and then the Trump administration.
According to the latest declassified footnotes two Russian intel officers used as sources for the junk Steele dossier and the at least one source voiced strong support for Hillary Clinton.
So how many officials in the Obama administration knew they were using a fraudulent document based on pro-Hillary Russian sources to spy on Donald Trump?
Trump wasn't colluding with Russian officials - Obama and Hillary were.
Rep. Devin Nunes had this to say tonight: I hope that there better be people who are charged with lying and obstructing a Congressional investigation because we should have been given this information. One more important point. Remember the ICA that I called Obama's dossier. Remember that they put that together in late 2016 after the election. What did it say? It said that oh the Russians were trying to help Trump. In that report, in the annex they put in, what? That Christopher Steele paid for dirt Steele dossier. Now if that is all the information we have from all of our intelligence assets where was the information that we now learned from the Horowitz report? Why was that not in the ICA?
The Intelligence Community Assessment or ICA was the fraudulent report written by CIA Director John Brennan and fed to Barack Obama before he left office. Obama and his administration used the document to smear President Trump and set up the coup before they left office.
Barack Obama spied on candidate Trump and his family, sent spies in to set up his campaign and then later smeared Donald Trump before he went into office.
Author Lee Smith wrote about this in his book "The Plot Against the President." An excerpt from the book was published at The Federalist.

Devin
Nunes: FBI should have investigated Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS
over Russian disinformation
by Jerry Dunleavy | April 13, 2020 11:08 PM
…
"We know they were all phony and fake Russians, but you also have this potential lead that these phony and fake Russians could be disinformation from Russians at the time time," Nunes said. "So, where's the investigation? Where was the investigation of Christopher Steele? Of Fusion GPS - the Clinton campaign's racketeering outfit that loves to slander and defame people and cause them lots of harm? Where was the FBI to look into these guys and to look into whether this was Russian disinformation?"

Actually, they gave the Presidency that power, not Trump.
Hillary was supposed to easily defeat that bumbling fool which is why they arranged for Trump to run. Clearly the man was all bluster but no substance.
The power would be there for Empress Hillary to exercise from her lair in the mountains of New Zealand.
But they got taken because it turns out that they were not running against Trump but against a sophisticated Military Intel machine that had been setting them up for years.
You know how the Christopher Steele dossier contained fake intel? Well that was not the first dossier that they had received on Trump. Thing is, that Military Intel had been working this angle for years previous to the election, feeding fake intel to the Cabal. Much of that was published in Fire and Fury. That was the intel that the Cabal actually believed.

Anticipation Over U.S. Attorney John Durham's Investigation

12 Apr 20203,839
"Anticipation over United States Attorney John Durham's investigation is growing as Attorney General William Barr recently hinted he is building the case to prosecute people.
"He is looking to bring to justice people who are engaged in abuses if he can show that they were criminal violations, and that's what the focus is on," Barr told Fox News's Laura Ingraham on Thursday. "He's diligently pursuing it."
The comments have heartened those who have long awaited consequences for current and former officials who investigated the Trump campaign on the basis of a discredited dossier put together by ex-British spy Christopher Steele that was funded by the Clinton campaign.
Barr tapped Durham last year to investigate the origins of the Obama administration's investigation into the Trump campaign, as well as actions taken up through President Trump's inauguration. Last fall, Durham upgraded his investigation to a criminal one.
Durham relocated from Connecticut to Washington, D.C., in March, so that he could continue work on his investigation amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Time is of the essence, with an election looming in November. Barr is reportedly looking to have the investigation finished by the end of summer.
"The closer we get to election day, the more any charges he brought would be framed by the media as kind of a Trump campaign stunt," former U.S. Attorney Andrew McCarthy told WMAL on Saturday.
"So I really think it's in his interest, especially after pouring two years of effort into this, to get with it by the late spring at the latest, because we all know if the president doesn't win reelection, this investigation is going down the memory hole," he said.
"We're getting to the point where a decision has to be made, one way or the other," he added."

Anticipation Over U.S. Attorney John Durham's Investigation Builds
Anticipation over United States Attorney John Durham's investigation is growing as Attorney General William Barr recently hinted he is building the case to prosecute people.

"We're getting to the point where a decision has to be made, one way or the other," he added.
Durham is reportedly focusing in on the role of intelligence officials in the investigation of the Trump campaign. Durham's team reportedly began interviews at the CIA earlier this year.
Durham's team is looking at former CIA Director John Brennan's role in the investigation - whether he pushed for an intelligence community assessment (ICA) more damaging to Trump.
Specifically, Durham's team is also looking into whether Brennan pushed for the ICA to include that Russia had interfered to help Trump, when not all intelligence agencies concurred with the same degree of confidence.
The CIA and the FBI had "high confidence" the interference was aimed at helping Trump, but the National Security Agency only had "moderate confidence." Durham has already met with the former head of NSA, Ret. Admiral Mike Rogers.
Durham's team has reportedly also focused on current and former officials at the National Intelligence Council, a unit at the Director of National Intelligence's office that coordinated the ICA.
Investigators are looking into whether the Steele dossier was used in the ICA, and whether former FBI Director James Comey and former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe insisted on the dossier being a part of the assessment's appendix, according to the Washington Examiner.
The team has also informally requested an interview with Steele through British authorities, who refused the request, according to the WSJ. It is not clear whether the team will now have to take a more formal and lengthier route.
Durham's team has also contacted Sir Andrew Wood, the former British Ambassador to Russia who told the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) in the fall of 2016 at the Halifax Security Forum in Nova Scotia about the existence of the dossier and arranged to have it sent to his colleague, David Kramer.
Journalist John Solomon recently said in a radio interview that Durham's team has issued multiple grand jury subpoenas.
Barr said although Durham's focus is on prosecution, there will probably be a report as a byproduct of his investigation.
It is not clear what Barr knows of the investigation, but he sounded confident there was wrongdoing.
"My own view is that the evidence shows that we're not dealing with just mistakes or sloppiness," he said. He added:
I think what happened to him was one of the greatest travesties in American history. Without any basis, they started this investigation of his campaign, and even more concerning, actually, is what happened after the campaign, a whole pattern of events while he was president. So I - to sabotage the presidency, and I think that - or at least have the effect of sabotaging the presidency.
Democrats have stepped up attacks on Barr since his interview in response. Progressive watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) launched a petition calling for Barr to resign the same day his interview aired.

FBI sabotaged Trump's presidency: Barr
Attorney General William Barr says that what the FBI did to President Trump in the Russia probe was one of the "greatest travesties in American history."
He said investigator misdeeds went beyond "mistakes or sloppiness" to "sabotaging the presidency."
Mr. Barr told Laura Ingraham on Fox News Thursday night that the FBI lacked sufficient evidence to open an investigation into the Trump campaign.

John Durham, a U.S. attorney and the attorney general's special investigator since March on origins of the Trump-Russia election investigation, will file a report at some point.
But, Mr. Barr said, "his primary focus isn't to prepare a report. He's looking to bring to justice people who are engaged in abuses if he can show that there were criminal violations and that is what the focus is on, building these cases, especially the sprawling case we have between us that went on for two or three years here.
"It takes some time to build a case. So he's diligently pursuing it. My own view is that the evidence shows we're not dealing with just mistakes or sloppiness. There's something far more troubling here and we're going to get to the bottom of it ...... and if people broke the law and we can establish that with the evidence they will be prosecuted."
The FBI opened the Trump probe on July 31, 2016, singling out four Trump associates suspected of having contacts with Russians. There was no evidence at the time that they were involved in a conspiracy with the Kremlin to interfere in the election.
In March 2017, then-FBI Director James Comey announced at a House hearing that the entire campaign was under investigation for any links to Russian government officials.
In the end, special counsel Robert Mueller concluded in March, after a 22-month probe, that he did not establish a conspiracy and no Trump ally was charged in election interference.
Along the way, the FBI relied greatly on the Christopher Steele dossier. Financed by the Democratic Party and Hillary Clinton campaign, Mr. Steele, a former British intelligence officer, leveled more than a dozen conspiracy allegations against Mr. Trump and associates. All were disproven by subsequent government reports.
The FBI used the dossier to convince judges to let agents spy on Trump volunteer Carter Page. The Justice Department inspector general said the warrant applications were riddled with errors and omissions of exonerating evidence.
The IG, however, did say the probe was justified because there is a low bar for starting a counter-intelligence inquiry.
With this FBI conduct as a backdrop, Mr. Barr told Ms. Ingraham: "I think the president has every right to

ANALYSIS: The FBI Knew The Steele Dossier Contained Russian Disinformation Three Years Ago - Somehow It Never Leaked
At some point in 2017, the precise month is not clear, the FBI obtained evidence that Russian operatives fed disinformation to former British spy Christopher Steele.
That stunning revelation came on Friday, and not through a leak, as did so many of the anti-Trump and pro-Steele stories that have come out since the dossier was published in January 2017.
Instead, the disclosure was the product of an intense GOP-led fact-finding campaign to force U.S. intelligence officials to declassify information that the FBI had on Steele and his notorious dossier.
Sens. Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson, the two Republicans who jogged loose the new information, noted the disparity in the type of information that has leaked out of the Trump-Russia investigation in the three-plus years since it began.
"For years, the public was fed a healthy diet of leaks, innuendo and false information to imply that President Trump and his campaign were part of a Russian conspiracy to spread disinformation," they said in a statement upon the release of three footnotes from the Justice Department inspector general's (IG) report on the FBI's surveillance of the Trump campaign.
The previously-classified footnotes said that an organization not identified in the IG report provided the FBI evidence that Russian operatives fed disinformation that wound up in the dossier.
The disclosure is another stunning blow to the reputation of the FBI, which made Steele's dossier a "central and essential" component of its surveillance warrants against Carter Page.
The disinformation involved two of Steele's most explosive claims: that former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen visited Prague in August 2016 to meet with Kremlin operatives, and that the Kremlin was blackmailing Donald Trump with footage of him with prostitutes in Moscow in 2013.

A senior Justice Department official who was in charge of the FISA warrants issued in 2016 that allowed spying on Americans had concerns about the warrant on former Trump campaign aide Carter Page, according to text messages between then-high ranking FBI officials obtained by Fox News.
Apparently, because of those concerns, the FBI provided the Justice Department's (DOJ) Office of Intelligence, which manages the FISA warrants, with a "robust explanation" regarding "any possible bias" of a confidential human source used in the warrant. The source for the core claims in the warrant was Christopher Steele, a former British spy who authored the infamous Steele dossier.

DOJ Declassifies 3 Footnotes From Horowitz's Report Revealing FBI Assessed Steele Dossier Was 'Russian Disinformation' - Used it Anyway
CBS News reporter Catherine Herridge obtained an April 2 letter responding to Senators Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley over four key footnotes in IG Horowitz's report.
As TGP previously reported, Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee Ron Johnson and Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee Chuck Grassley Tuesday sent a letter to Attorney General Bill Barr asking him to declassify four footnotes in Horowitz's report on FISA abuse.
The Senators stated that the classified footnotes contradict what is publicly available in Horowitz's report related to Crossfire Hurricane, the CI investigation opened into Trump's campaign in July of 2016.
Grassley and Johnson wrote, "The American people have a right to know what is contained within these four footnotes and, without that knowledge, they will not have a full picture as to what happened during the Crossfire Hurricane investigation."
The DOJ declassified 3 footnotes with minimal redactions and kept the fourth footnote completely blacked out citing, "unique and significant concerns. The redacted information refers to information received by a member of the Crossfire Hurricane team regarding possible previous attempts by a foreign government to penetrate and research a company or individuals associated with Christopher Steele," Herridge reported.
One declassified footnote revealed Comey's FBI knew the Hillary Clinton-funded dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele was bogus Russian disinformation - but they used it anyway to spy on Trump's campaign.

Q Research General #11205:
FBI Received Evidence Of Russian Disinformation In Steele Dossier
The FBI received information that Russian disinformation might have been fed to Christopher Steele, whose dossier played a "central" role in the bureau's investigation of the Trump campaign.
The bombshell disclosures are in newly unredacted footnotes contained in the Justice Department inspector general's report on the FBI's surveillance of the Trump campaign.
An FBI unit had concerns as far back as 2015 about Steele's relationships with Russian oligarchs, one footnote stated.
The FBI was provided assessments that Steele's claims about Michael Cohen and a trip that Donald Trump made to Moscow in 2013 were products of Russian disinformation, another footnote said.
The FBI received evidence that Russian disinformation polluted the infamous Steele dossier, according to information declassified Friday from the Justice Department inspector general's report of the FBI's surveillance of the Trump campaign.
FBI officials also had concerns as far back as 2015 of dossier author Christopher Steele's relationship to Russian oligarchs, but those were never shared with the FBI team that led the Trump investigation.
Despite those red flags, the FBI continued relying on Steele's information in applications to obtain surveillance warrants against Carter Page, the former Trump campaign aide.
The bombshell disclosures were made Friday in response to repeated requests from Sens. Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson to disclose four redacted footnotes in the IG report.
"It's ironic that the Russian collusion narrative was fatally flawed because of Russian disinformation," the two Republicans said in a statement. "These footnotes confirm that there was a direct Russian disinformation campaign in 2016, and there were ties between Russian intelligence and a presidential campaign - the Clinton campaign, not Trump's."

Prior reports have indicated that the nature of the investigation changed when Attorney General Bill Barr and Durham went to Rome and spoke to Italian intelligence. The Italian Prime Minister confirmed the event. It was after that, reports indicated Durham was "very interested" in questioning both former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former CIA Director John Brennan.
Other reports indicate that we may learn more about alleged crimes from the IG report from Michael Horowitz which was investigating the FISA abuse. Crimes could include making false statements to the court in order to get the warrants against Carter Page, for example. They didn't tell the court that the people behind Christopher Steele were the DNC and the Clinton campaign. They also used news stories from the same source -Steele - to support Steele's dossier claims, another no-no.

U.S. intelligence has decided to declassify several redacted footnotes from a recent Justice Department report that will expose more problems with the FBI's investigation into President Trump's campaign, including that agents possessed evidence their main informant may have been the victim of Russian disinformation, Just the News has learned.
The previously redacted footnotes are likely to raise new concerns that the FBI ignored flashing red warning signals about the informant Christopher Steele and gave a false picture in briefing materials supplied to Congress.
The declassified sections from Inspector General Michael Horowitz's December review of FBI FISA abuse could be made available to key Senate and House committees as early as the end of this week, according to people familiar with the effort.

Three Russians Sue Christopher Steele for Slandering Them in His Steele Dossier Used By the Deep State and Democrats to Spy On and Destroy Candidate and President Trump
A month ago former British spy and author of the junk Trump-Russia dossier, Christopher Steele, defended his unconfirmed trash report on candidate Donald Trump and said he would never speak to US Attorney General William Barr or US Attorney John Durham. Now it looks like Steele may be forced to speak to the courts as three Russians are suing him for slandering them in his infamous work labeled the Steele dossier.
Steele, who spoke at Oxford University a month ago, said he will not cooperate with William Barr and John Durham. There is currently a criminal referral on Steele for lying to congressional investigators. The former British spy inflicted upon America the Russia scam that derailed the Trump administration for three years and tore the country apart.

DNC Responds To Carter Page Lawsuit, Claiming Steele Dossier Is 'Substantially True'
Responding to a lawsuit from Carter Page, lawyers for the Democratic National Committee claimed in a court filing this week that the "gist" of the Steele dossier is accurate.
Page sued the DNC and two of its outside attorneys on Jan. 30, accusing them of spreading false information collected by dossier author Christopher Steele.
The Justice Department inspector general found significant problems with Steele's reporting.
Lawyers for the Democratic National Committee claimed in court filings this week that the Steele dossier's statements regarding Trump campaign aide Carter Page were "substantially true," a defense that is at odds with the findings of the Justice Department's inspector general.
"Here, the 'gist' of the complained-of statements - that Page coordinated with Russian government contacts as an adviser to the Trump campaign - aligns with Page's own description of his conduct," the DNC lawyers asserted in a court filing on Monday.
The filing was the DNC's first in response to a defamation lawsuit that Page filed on Jan. 30 accusing the DNC and two lawyers for its outside law firm, Perkins Coie, of providing false information to journalists that came from Christopher Steele, a former British spy.
Perkins Coie, which also represented the Clinton campaign, hired the firm Fusion GPS in April 2016 to investigate Donald Trump. Fusion GPS in turn hired Steele to investigate Trump's possible ties to Russia. Steele produced 17 memos as part of the project, alleging a "well-developed conspiracy of cooperation" between the Trump campaign and Russian government.

Brits hinted they assisted Team Obama on Russia collusion probe
K.T. MacFarland also says she believes James Comey's alert to Trump about Steele dossier was akin to blackmail.
Just the News-
resident Trump's former deputy national security adviser says a British intelligence official hinted to her that his country had aided the Obama administration's early Russia collusion probe during the 2016 election.
Former Deputy National Security Adviser K.T. McFarland told Just the News that as Trump was preparing to take office in January 2017 she received a call and email from her counterpart in the British national security establishment.
The contact from British Deputy National Security Adviser Patrick "Paddy" McGuinness occurred around the day the sensational but now debunked Christopher Steele dossier leaked in the U.S. news media.

>>8420920

Of course, that's part of it. But there's a more fundamental – legal – reason it could not be done right away.
Q told us early on, in post #14.
What is "state secrets?"
From QRV:
https://files.catbox.moe/snptyp.pngPNG
Another anon brought up this meme. Interesting. I remember reading that Q post, but it did not click with me at the time.
Here is a 2006 paper on "state secrets" and how upheld by the Supreme Court.
https://scholarship.law.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1174&context=lawreview
Bottom line: A contract to engage in espionage is a "state secret," per se. If a plaintiff sues the US government or any department or individual working for it, and the defendant (US gov't or other) claims "state secrets," the case can be DISMISSED WITHOUT TRIAL. This means that NOBODY can sue to be compensated for or even find out ANYTHING ABOUT any act of espionage, whether legal or illegal.
The SCOTUS stated in a case in 1953 that this should only be used in very rare situations. However, the government (naturally) doesn't care about that. They have been expanding it and getting cases dismissed using this tool.
Let's suppose Christopher Steele had a contract with the CIA to dig up dirt on Trump. The entire thing was a fabrication. None of it true. NOBODY can take legal action (not even Trump) to expose it or seek compensation for it, if the US government or Steele raises the "state secrets" defense and the court agrees.
Or, expand it further. Let's say someone in government harms someone. The harmed person sues. If there is even ONE classified document that the plaintiff would need to prove their case, EVEN IF THAT DOCUMENT IS FALSELY CLASSIFIED, then the case can be dismissed and the plaintiff has no legal recourse.
Think: General Flynn
Anyone familiar with Sibel Edmonds? She was an FBI whistleblower, claiming that rogue FBI agents were engaged in espionage against the American people. The FBI fired her. She sued. Her case was dismissed because of "state secrets priviledge." Her book is called "Classified Woman."
Arar v. Ashcroft - a Canadian citizen was apprehended by US officials at JFK airport. He was sent to Syria and tortured for almost a year. He sued. The case was dismissed, though the judge side-stepped the state secrets issue. Point is: what if YOU are the one falsely accused of doing wrong, are kidnapped and tortured, and then released, and you cannot get legal redress because of a bogus "state secrets privilege" by the government that did it to you?
Ladies and Gents –
THIS is why the trials could not take place right away. The deep state operatives within the DOJ and the courts would have conspired to prevent not only any convictions, but to PREVENT ANY TRIALS TO TAKE PLACE AT ALL, by using "state secrets privilege."
The civilian courts and departments needed to be cleaned up before any trials can take place. Q implies that trials will be held by the military. If so, the military will need documents from the CIA and other non-military departments, and they cannot be obstructed by dirty individuals inhabiting the swamp.
Rooting out the rats was always priority #1.

Q Research General #10743: Infinite Surfing Comfy Edition
FISA Reforms Are Insufficient & No One Has Been Held Accountable
Senior FBI officials lied. Senior State Department, Intelligence and Department of Justice officials also lied and played a crucial role in one of the most egregious investigations into a United States president in modern political history: the bureau's probe into President Donald Trump's campaign and it's alleged collusion with Russia.
It was built on a foundation of lies propagated by a dossier supplied by the private research firm Fusion GPS and cultivated by a former British spy Christopher Steele, who was paid with funding from the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
The majority of FBI agents involved in the hoax have either been fired or have resigned. Yet, none of them, even those caught lying to Department of Justice investigators under oath, have been prosecuted. It's an outrage.
The most egregious violations were exposed by DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz and House Intelligence Committee now-ranking member Rep. Devin Nunes' Russia report. Horowitz, whose report fell short of exposing the true nature of the investigation, identified "at least 17 significant errors or omissions in the Carter Page FISA applications and many errors in the Woods Procedures" which guide the FBI's FISA process, according to the 476-page report.
Nunes report exposed the FISA Court violations much earlier and was vindicated by the findings of Horowitz.
"These errors and omissions resulted from case agents providing wrong or incomplete information to the National Security Division's Office of Intelligence and failing to flag important issues for discussion," Horowitz said.
These weren't just simple mistakes or lack of oversight.
The errors and omissions were done purposefully to spy on short-term Trump campaign advisor Carter Page in an effort to target the Trump campaign and later the administration.
Meanwhile, Congress has still not authorized reparations for the countless Trump supporters, who remain as powerless crime victims amidst all of the DOJ's and FBI's lies, Carter Page
These bureau officials withheld significant information from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court when they applied for a warrant to spy on an American. Remember, by the time they began spying on Page in September, 2016 he was no longer with the Trump campaign.
On Wednesday the House passed legislation with broad bipartisan support to reauthorize the FISA bill that was set to expire Sunday. These lawmakers promised that the reforms would be sufficient to protect Americans from unwarranted surveillance abuses by the FBI in the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court.
It's not true and the FISA reforms will not be sufficient, say opponents.

Q Research General #10730: The Wuhan Watch Edition
JOHN SOLOMON: Newly Declassified Memos Show FBI's Russia Collusion Case Fell Apart in First Month of Trump Presidency
The FBI's Russia collusion case fell apart within the first couple weeks of Trump's presidency, yet Mueller accepted his appointment as special counsel and continued his $35 million witch hunt anyway.
According to award-winning investigative journalist John Solomon, Mueller was aware that in early 2017 there was no Russian collusion yet he pressed on and forced Trump's associates to plead guilty to unrelated process crimes.
According to declassified memos, the Steele dossier was debunked in January of 2017 and the idea that General Mike Flynn was a Russian asset was also ruled out at the same time.
Yet the Deep State continued with damaging leaks to the media claiming Flynn was working on behalf of Russia.
Flynn's lawyer Sidney Powell confirmed that Mueller was aware of a letter sent to Flynn in January of 2017 questioning Christopher Steele's credibility.
According to John Solomon, the British government "hand-delivered" the letter to Flynn's legal team that "totally disavowed any credibility of Christopher Steele, and would have completely destroyed the Russia collusion narrative," Sidney Powell said.
"I was told that a copy of the document would have been given to [then-National Security Adviser] Susan Rice as well," Powell added. "So the Obama administration knew full well that the entire Russia collusion mess was a farce."
Via John Solomon:
The piecemeal release of FBI files in the Russia collusion investigation has masked an essential fact: James Comey's G-men had substantially debunked the theory that Donald Trump's campaign conspired with Moscow by the time the 45th president was settling into the Oval Office, according to declassified memos, court filings and interviews.
In rapid fire sequence in January 2017, U.S. officials:
received multiple warnings about the credibility of informant Christopher Steele and his dossier;
affirmed key targets of the FBI counterintelligence investigation made exculpatory statements denying collusion to undercover sources;
concluded retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, Trump's first national security adviser, was not engaged in collusion with the Russians.
Flynn's motion is confirmed by a 2018 letter obtained by Just the News between Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office and defense lawyers. It shows the DOJ exoneration memo was written after Flynn had been interviewed by FBI agents in January 2017 and after the government learned the former Defense Intelligence Agency chief had kept his old agency briefed on his contacts with Russia, something that weighed heavily against the notion he was aiding Moscow.
"According to an internal DOJ memo dated January 30, 2017, after the Jan. 24 interview, the FBI advised that based on the interview the FBI did not believe Flynn was acting as an agent of Russia," Mueller's team wrote in the letter.
These newly declassified memos along with the rebuke from presiding FISA judge James Boasberg where he ruled two of the FISA warrants against Carter Page invalid should be enough to prosecute everyone involved.

Q Research General #10728: :Pandamic Continues Edition
FBI's Russia collusion case fell apart in first month of Trump presidency, memos show
The piecemeal release of FBI files in the Russia collusion investigation has masked an essential fact: James Comey's G-men had substantially debunked the theory that Donald Trump's campaign conspired with Moscow by the time the 45th president was settling into the Oval Office, according to declassified memos, court filings and interviews. And that means a nascent presidency and an entire nation were put through two more years of lacerating debate over an issue that was mostly resolved in January 2017 inside the bureau's own evidence files. The proof is now sitting in plain view.
In rapid fire sequence in January 2017, U.S. officials:
received multiple warnings about the credibility of informant Christopher Steele and his dossier;
affirmed key targets of the FBI counterintelligence investigation made exculpatory statements denying collusion to undercover sources;
concluded retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, Trump's first national security adviser, was not engaged in collusion with the Russians.
The latter revelation has mostly escaped much notice, contained in a single sentence in a once-sealed court motion filed by Flynn defense attorney Sidney Powell that requested what is known as Brady material, or evidence of innocence. That motion dated Sept. 11, 2019 requested access to "an internal DOJ document dated January 30, 2017, in which the FBI exonerated Mr. Flynn of being 'an agent of Russia.'" Flynn's motion is confirmed by a 2018 letter obtained by Just the News between Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office and defense lawyers. It shows the DOJ exoneration memo was written after Flynn had been interviewed by FBI agents in January 2017 and after the government learned the former Defense Intelligence Agency chief had kept his old agency briefed on his contacts with Russia, something that weighed heavily against the notion he was aiding Moscow. "According to an internal DOJ memo dated January 30, 2017, after the Jan. 24 interview, the FBI advised that based on the interview the FBI did not believe Flynn was acting as an agent of Russia," Mueller's team wrote in the letter. U.S. District Judge Emmett Sullivan so far has concluded that the exoneration of Flynn on the Russia collusion charge wasn't relevant to his conviction since he pled guilty to a different crime, making a false statement to the FBI.
But for the American public, such a revelation is momentous. Less than two weeks into Trump's presidency the FBI had concluded his national security adviser had not been working as an agent of Russia. While that was the view of federal law enforcement, the false storyline of Flynn as a Russian stooge was broadcasted across the nation, with leaks of his conversations with a Russian ambassador and other tales, for many more months. In an interview with Just the News and its John Solomon Reports podcast, Powell confirmed she was provided by letter three sentences from the DOJ memo but has been unable to get the full document. "It's just horrible," Powell said. "They gave us a little three lines summary of it and the letter and told us it existed but have refused to give us the actual document, which I know means there's a lot of other information in it that would be helpful to us."

Christopher Steele defends dossier and criticizes Trump
British ex-spy Christopher Steele defended his dossier while leveling criticisms against the president during a rare appearance on Friday. Steele, a former MI6 agent and the one-time head of the United Kingdom's Russia desk, spoke at a "members only" event at Oxford Union in England. The organizers state, "Steele was made the subject of media stalking and investigation by Republican senators, and had to go into hiding with his family." The only remarks released from the closed-door discussion were tweeted out by the group's account. "I stand by the integrity of our work, our sources, and what we did," Steele told the audience on Friday, adding, "Trump himself doesn't like intelligence because its ground truth is inconvenient for him." The former spy noted, "The reality check is that Russia is a hostile state as it is run at the moment. It is out to destabilize the West, and it is nefarious in the way it goes about its business."
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz concluded in December that the FBI's Trump-Russia investigation was flawed. The watchdog criticized the Justice Department and the FBI for 17 "significant errors and omissions" related to its targeting of former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page through a warrant and three renewals through the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. Steele was hired by opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which was funded by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee through the Perkins Coie law firm. Perkins Coie was paid more than $12 million between 2016 and 2017 for its work. Fusion GPS was paid $50,000 per month from Perkins Coie, and Steele was paid roughly $168,000 by Fusion GPS.
Following Horowitz's report, the Justice Department told the FISA court it believed the final two Page FISA warrants were "not valid." The FBI told the court it planned to "sequester" all the information obtained through the Page FISA orders. The report noted that FBI meetings with Steele's sources "raised significant questions about the reliability of the Steele election reporting," and bureau officials said Steele "may have some judgment problems." The CIA referred to Steele's dossier as "internet rumor."
James Boasberg, the presiding judge on the FISA court, said on Wednesday the flawed applications left "little doubt that the government breached its duty of candor to the Court with respect to those applications." Boasberg noted, "All four Page applications relied on information from reports prepared by Christopher Steele." He described four broad unsubstantiated and disputed claims made in Steele's dossier: that the Kremlin fed dirt on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Trump's campaign, that Page discussed lifting sanctions against Russia in a secret 2016 Moscow meeting, that Page was the go-between for Russia and Trump's campaign in a "well-developed conspiracy of cooperation" overseen by then-campaign manager Paul Manafort, and that Russia released the hacked Democratic National Committee emails to WikiLeaks at Page's suggestion to swing voters to Trump.

Extra sauce
" A ruling by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court on Wednesday mistakenly said Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm which hired British ex-spy Christopher Steele in 2016, was looking for dirt on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton rather than on then-candidate Donald Trump.
The court fixed the glaring error only after the Washington Examiner brought it to its attention.
Judge James Boasberg, the court's presiding judge, cited the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act applications against former Trump campaign associate Carter Page in a Wednesday opinion and, in the midst of pointing out the multitude of flaws, omissions, and factual errors in the electronic surveillance filings uncovered by the Justice Department's watchdog, he made a mistake himself.
"Although from the outset the applications acknowledged the likely political bias of the person who had hired Steele ... information that confirmed the political origins of the Steele reporting was not," Boasberg stated.
He then incorrectly quoted a footnote from the first FISA application, writing: "The FBI speculates that the [person who hired Steele] was likely looking for information that could be used to discredit [Clinton's] campaign."
In reality, the FISA application stated, "the FBI speculates that the identified U.S. person was likely looking for information that could be used to discredit Candidate #1's campaign."
"Candidate #1" was Trump, not Clinton."

Former MI6 Agent & Author of The Steele Dossier
A former spy and private investigator, Steele gained prominence as the author of a secret dossier of opposition research detailing possible ties between Donald Trump and Russia. The dossier included suggestions that the Trump campaign had received intelligence from Russian officials in 2016, and that the Kremlin possessed compromising footage of Trump engaging in sexual acts with prostitutes in Russia. After Steele provided the FBI with his findings, and Buzzfeed published the report, Steele was made the subject of media stalking and investigation by Republican senators, and had to go into hiding with his family

FBI agents in Carter Page probe barred from FISA court requests
he FISA court has temporarily banned FBI agents under disciplinary review in the wiretapping of former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page from requesting surveillance authority from the court.
The ban was imposed in an opinion issued Wednesday by the secretive court's chief judge, James E. Boasberg.
"FBI personnel under disciplinary review in relation to their work on FISA applications accordingly should not participate in drafting, verifying, reviewing, or submitting such application to the Court while the review is pending," Boasberg wrote.
The judge also said in his 19-page opinion that the same restrictions apply to any Justice Department attorney under disciplinary review, as well as any DOJ or FBI personnel who are the subject of a criminal referral related to their work on FISA applications.
Boasberg also stated that the FBI had "omitted or mischaracterized" pieces of information pertaining to the credibility of former MI6 agent Christopher Steele, and the now largely debunked dossier he produced.
The FBI's FISA application implied that Page's Russian contacts were secret and suspicious, though in reality Page has disclosed them.
The ruling also points out that, according to Michael Horowitz's Inspector General report, someone in the FBI's Office of General Counsel went so far as to add additional text to an email from another agency stating that Page was not a source, thereby falsifying FISA warrant evidence.
The temporary ban comes days before a March 15 deadline for Congress to decide whether to renew several post 9/11 FISA tools.

FBI ignored court declarations from anti-Trump dossier creator in writing last wiretap warrants
Anti-Trump dossier creator to stand trial
Dossier creator Christopher Steele is scheduled to stand trial in mid-May in a defamation case whose 2017 court records were ignored by FBI agents as they wrote the last of four dossier-based wiretap warrants on Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page in June of that year. Mr. Steele filed his first sworn declaration in a London court on April 3, 2017, admitting that one of his 17 memos - though not on Mr. Page - was "unsolicited" and "raw" intelligence. The Washington Times first disclosed the document on April 25, 2017. Republicans later told the Justice Department the filing should have set off alarm bells about Mr. Steele's credibility, given his admission he had accepted gossip.
All four FBI wiretap affidavits on Mr. Page never would have been sought without the Democratic Party-funded dossier, according to Justice Department Inspector General Michael D. Horowitz Mr. Horowitz disclosed in his Dec. 9 report that the FBI showed no interest in acquiring records from Mr. Steele's court case as the bureau aggressively surveilled Mr. Page, an informal Trump campaign adviser, under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA.) Mr. Horowitz said that although there had been "open source reporting ... We found no evidence that the FBI made any attempts in May or June 2017 to obtain the filings to assist a determination of whether to change the FBI's assessment ..." What's more, the FBI's Office of the General Counsel (OGC) made the unilateral decision to ignore Mr. Steele's April 3 filing. "The OGC unit chief's notes suggest that on May 1, without consulting [Justice], and relying only upon open source reporting concerning the filings, the FBI decided that Steele's April 3, 2017 sworn statement in the foreign litigation did not warrant any changes to renewal application No. 3," the Horowitz report said. In all, Mr. Horowitz found that the FBI made 17 significant inaccuracies or omissions of exculpatory evidence when agents fed information to the Justice Department's Office of Intelligence. It screened the evidence and wrote the four Page affidavits from October 2016 to June 2017. In January, the Justice Department nullified the last two FISA warrants from April and June 2017 based on Mr. Horowitz's report. Special counsel Robert Mueller's report in March 2019 said he didn't establish that Mr. Page coordinated with Russia to interfere in the 2016 election. Mr. Steele's court flings came in the case of Russian computer entrepreneur Aleksej Gubarev. He filed a defamation lawsuit against Mr. Steele and his Orbis Business Intelligence almost immediately after BuzzFeed published the 35-page dossier on Jan. 10, 2017. The last of Mr. Steele's 17 dossier memos accused Mr. Gubarev of hacking Democratic Party computers under pressure from Russian intelligence.
Mr. Gubarev, a Cyprus resident, immediately denied the allegation. The Mueller report does not mention Mr. Gubarev. The report said the hacking was exclusively carried out by the Russian military. Val Gurvits, Mr. Gubarev's U.S. attorney, told The Washington Times that a London trial date is tentatively set for May 15. "The defendants have done everything possible to delay the inevitable," Mr. Gurvits said. Subsequent to the April 3 filing, Mr. Steele signed a second declaration in May 2017 spelling out how he came to Washington and briefed a number of journalists on Trump allegations in September 2016. His dossier accused President Trump of heading a far-reaching conspiracy with the Kremlin to interfere in the election. Mr. Mueller found no such conspiracy, and no Trump associate was charged in such a plot. Republican Sens. Charles Grassley of Iowa and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina wrote a letter to the Justice Department in early 2018 accusing Mr. Steele of lying to the FBI about not having press contacts.
The senators said that the Steele memo about Mr. Gubarev was relevant to the Page affidavits because it showed that the British ex-spy deals with unsolicited, raw intelligence. In the face of Mr. Steele's court declarations, the Horowitz report said, the FBI continued to assess his information as "reliable." Taken together, the Mueller and Horowitz reports eviscerated Mr. Steele's anti-Trump claims. Mr. Horowitz said Mr. Steele's main Russia source told the FBI that he had fed Kremlin gossip to Mr. Steele, not verified information. The FBI kept this fact from Justice Department affidavit writers. Mr. Steele says his main source never made such statements to him, and he credits his dossier with revealing Russian election meddling.

ALL ROADS LEAD BACK TO THE KENYAN
How Obama Ran the Trump Coup
For three years a sitting president has been hounded on false allegations and hearsay. After squandering millions of taxpayer dollars on phony probes, he has been acquitted.
How did the Democrats succeed so in a Republican administration? Ask Barack Obama. He knew his successor would dismantle his legacy, a legacy globalist progressives - both Democrats and Republicans in name only (RINOs) - had fought long and hard for. Hillary Clinton was to carry it on, but instead Trump is killing it. Since Obama knew this could happen, he and his team devised a plan to salvage what he wrought and ensure it carried on after his departure. The process he started during his administration would continue through his self-declared "shadow government."
He knew he had the structure to accomplish his plan. The White House, Departments of Justice, State, Defense and the intelligence agencies are the core of any administration and were replete with his people. Plus the media as always would stay loyal to his progressive ideology and globalist RINOs weren't about to help an establishment outsider and proclaimed nationalist.
In the unlikely event of a Trump victory, the plan had to include four-parts: a) Clinton crimes and exoneration; b) Trump-Russia collusion; and, if Hillary lost, c) an special counsel probe; and d) an impeachment.
During Obama's Term in Office
Clinton Crimes and Exoneration
Hillary Clinton had to become the Democrat presidential nominee, but her notorious record made that hard to achieve. In 2010 she had approved the sale of 20 percent of American uranium to Russia's atomic energy corporation for a Russian donation of $145 million to her foundation. Then she used an unsecured server to pass classified documents. Obama actually communicated with her in this fashion and her email records were hidden in the Executive Office of the President. In violation of a Congressional subpoena, she destroyed laptops and used bleachbit to erase emails permanently.
To clear her of all these indiscretions, Obama ordered Attorney General Loretta Lynch to treat the Clinton situation as a "matter," not an investigation and key Clinton staffers were given immunity. The State Department offered the FBI more legal attache positions abroad if the agency would downgrade Clinton emails "from classified to something else."
In May 2016 Peter Strzok changed the wording of FBI Director James Comey's statement that would exonerate Clinton, wording Obama used that same month to declare Clinton's innocence. Comey summarily dismissed a chart listing all the laws Clinton had violated and 30 breaches into the Clinton email system, mostly by foreign governments.
Three months later Comey made the statement, sparing Lynch the embarrassment of having to decide the case and clearing the way for Clinton to run for president.
When Bernie Sanders made a run for the Democrat presidential nomination, DNC chair Debbie Wassermann Shultz delivered super delegate votes to ensure a Clinton victory.
Trump-Russia Collusion
Next Trump had to be discredited. Consequently in January 2016 White House brass met with Ukrainian officials to discuss ways to develop "dirt" on him.
Two months later the Clinton campaign and the DNC contracted with Fusion GPS to find additional dirt. The firm contracted Christopher Steele, a former British spy and Trump hater, to develop what became the unverified Trump dossier.
Obama then tasked CIA director John Brennan to organize an interagency taskforce and meet with members of foreign intelligence groups to plot against Trump. White House, State, Treasury, and Justice department staff comprised the taskforce.
In July 2016, Brennan told taskforce member Peter Strzok to initiate a counterintelligence investigation on Trump based on the dossier. Although Strzok confessed there was "no there there," he and Lisa Page kept digging. Page then tweeted, "POTUS (Obama) wants to know everything we do."

Q Research General #10553: Tava in the morning Edition
I never quite got what Grassley's and Johnson's request on the IG footnotes were significant, this article lays it out plainly. Long article read the whole thing
A Steele - Papadopoulos Connection
Earlier today commenter EZ brought to my attention an article by Margot Cleveland that had somehow eluded my feed reader. The article–Senators: IG FISA Abuse Report Misled Public About Crossfire Hurricane–expands on earlier coverage of the letter that Senators Grassley and Johnson recently sent to AG Bill Barr. Here's how I set this up in Grassley, Johson Charge Horowitz Dossier Misleads Public:
Basically, the senators are demanding that AG Barr declassify four footnotes in the Horowitz Dossier. The reason for their demand is that they assert that the classified footnotes contradict supposed "information" that was made public in the Horowitz Dossier. The senators' letter to Barr is in two versions–one classified, the other unclassified and made public. The unclassified version states in part:
We have reviewed the findings of the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) with regard to the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation, and we are deeply concerned about certain information that remains classified. Specifically, we are concerned that certain sections of the public version of the report are misleading because they are contradicted by relevant and probative classified information redacted in four footnotes. This classified information is significant not only because it contradicts key statements in a section of the report, but also because it provides insight essential for an accurate evaluation of the entire investigation. The American people have a right to know what is contained within these four footnotes and, without that knowledge, they will not have a full picture as to what happened during the Crossfire Hurricane investigation."
I'm guessing that Barr will need to take these complaints seriously. They strike at the credibility of both OIG and DoJ. Could it be that these footnotes relate to John Durham's harsh comments on Horowitz's work?…
Now, I have always supposed that the official story that Crossfire Hurricane was NOT predicated on information from Christopher Steele was disinformation. I still hold to that view, even though the official documentation seems to support that version. This is where I believe Cleveland's new analysis is important. Cleveland's analysis focuses on a footnote that I wasn't aware of, footnote #302, and her analysis points to the importance of what the two senators are talking about and strongly suggests that the redactions may be at the very heart of Barr and Durham's criticism of Horowitz's report. What is misleading about Horowitz's report in its published/redacted version is that it gives the impression that Steele had no particular involvement in the origin of Crossfire Hurricane–it appears to support the FBI's official explanation that Papadopoulos and the completely dodgy narrative surrounding Papadopoulos' conversations with Downer and Mifsud served as the predication….
In light of all this, Cleveland rightly returns to what she believes is the common thread between the public statements of Barr/Durham–issued at the same time as the IG's report–and the subsequent letter from the two senators:
[W]e already know that Barr and U.S. Attorney John Durham disagree with the IG's predication conclusion: Durham released a statement after the IG report hit, stressing that "[b]ased on the evidence collected to date, . . . we do not agree with some of the report's conclusions as to predication and how the FBI case was opened." We also now know from the Grassley-Johnson letter that "certain sections" of the IG report "are misleading because they are contradicted by relevant and probative classified information" contained in the redacted footnotes.
AG Barr has made it crystal clear that he regards these issues as key to the Durham investigation. The focus that Durham has shown on the Italian, British, and Australian involvement in the Russia Hoax confirms that–as does Cleveland's analysis.

(continued) What we know about the genesis of the Russia investigation
"What I can say is when we first received the set of reports that are commonly referred to as the dossier," she said, "that initial - our having obtained those documents initially, did not come from Bruce Ohr. They came from Christopher Steele through his handler to the FBI."
When did they get those reports?
"I think we got them on the team," Page testified, "in mid - in mid- to late September."
There were other reasons to launch an investigation.
So if the genesis was not the dossier, what spurred the probe?
We understand from various news reports that the immediate spur for the investigation in late July 2016 was a tip from the Australian government. One of their diplomats, Alexander Downer, was having a drink with a Trump campaign adviser named George Papadopoulos in London in May 2016 when Papadopoulos revealed he had been told Russia had stolen emails incriminating Clinton. When WikiLeaks began releasing documents stolen from the Democratic National Committee on July 22, Australian authorities informed the FBI about that conversation.
How did Papadopoulos know about the stolen material? He had been told about it by a Russia-linked professor named Joseph Mifsud in April. Papadopoulos later admitted to lying to the FBI about when he met Mifsud and when he had been told about the stolen material.
While the Papadopoulos comment was apparently the trigger for Crossfire Hurricane, there were other known links between the Trump campaign and Russia.
There was Paul Manafort, hired to serve as campaign chairman. He had an established track record of working with Russian interests while working in Ukrainian politics a decade ago. The FBI had interviewed Manafort (and his deputy, Rick Gates) in 2014. The New York Times reported shortly before Trump's inauguration that Manafort had been on the FBI's radar again in spring 2016, "an outgrowth of a criminal investigation into his work for a pro-Russian political party in Ukraine and for the country's former president."
There was Michael Flynn, who traveled in December 2015 to Russia, where he was paid to attend a dinner for the state-controlled television network RT and at which he sat at a table with Russian President Vladimir Putin. In about that same period, British intelligence officials warned U.S. authorities about suspicious interactions between Trump-connected individuals and possible Russian agents, according to the Guardian.
There was Carter Page. Like Papadopoulos, Page was an adviser on Trump's foreign policy team. Unlike Papadopoulos, he was already on the FBI's radar, having been identified by a possible Russian agent in 2013 as a potential target for recruitment. He was investigated by the FBI at that point and, possibly, surveilled by U.S. authorities under a warrant obtained through the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. (Whether he was the target of such a warrant then is not clear.)
Page traveled to Moscow with the campaign's permission in early July 2016 and met with a deputy prime minister, among others. He had been interviewed by the FBI again in March 2016 and, shortly after his trip to Moscow, met with a confidential FBI informant named Stefan Halper, also a London-based professor. (Halper and Mifsud are often erroneously conflated.)
Page is known to have been the target of a FISA warrant in October 2016. That warrant included information from the dossier as evidence supporting the need to surveil Page. But it was issued not only after the Russia investigation began but also after Page had left the campaign, which he had done in late September.
All of this is well established and offers a picture of a Trump campaign that had multiple questionable points of contact with Russian actors. Barr's letter about Mueller's conclusions indicates none of this rose to the level of criminal behavior on the part of the campaign, but that is why investigations are conducted: to determine whether criminal activity occurred.
For Trump and his supporters, the goal is simpler. They want to muddy the water, to make it seem both as though the FBI targeted him unfairly and that the media did so, as well.
So they are leveraging friendly media to unfairly muddy the water.

What we know about the genesis of the Russia investigation
(washingtonpost April 1, 2019)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/04/01/what-we-know-about-genesis-russia-investigation/
President Trump's approach to the investigation into Russian election interference has never been subtle. From early in his presidency, he has described it as a "witch hunt" that was unnecessary because there was "no collusion" between his campaign and Russia - an assertion that has remained unchanged since he first offered it in that infamous May 11, 2017, interview with NBC News's Lester Holt.
In Trump's telling, the investigation was always political, an effort to undermine his election and his presidency. In the wake of special counsel Robert S. Mueller III wrapping up his probe, Trump's rhetoric has gotten angrier, citing Attorney General William P. Barr's overview of Mueller's conclusions as proof not only of his own innocence but of the nefarious intent of those who began the investigation in the first place.
Trump and his supporters have embraced a history of the genesis of that investigation that would seem to bolster his arguments about bias. The investigation into "collusion," they argue, stems from a dossier of reports compiled by a former British intelligence officer named Christopher Steele who was working for a research agency that was being paid by a law firm representing Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign and the Democratic Party. That dossier, then, was used to launch the investigation into Trump's campaign despite the information in it not having been verified at the time - or, largely, even now. What's more, the investigation was launched by an FBI agent named Peter Strzok, who had disparaged Trump in text messages sent to an FBI lawyer, Lisa Page. This argument has been made, in full or in part, by Rush Limbaugh and various Fox News anchors and guests.
That narrative offers a very refined argument: a biased, untrue dossier used by a Trump hater to start a witch hunt. The only problems are it is so refined that it leaves out a lot of other, more important information - and that the description it offers is itself incorrect.
There is no evidence the investigation stemmed from the dossier.
The first and most important point is the investigation does not appear to have derived from the dossier.
Steele was hired by the firm Fusion GPS in June 2016. His first report (of 17 total) was filed on June 20 of that year and introduced the infamous story about Trump and the Moscow Ritz-Carlton. Steele is said to have been so alarmed by the suggestion that Russia had leverage over Trump that he reached out to the FBI. He met with an agent named Mike Gaeta in London on July 5, someone with whom he had worked previously during his career as a British intelligence officer.
The material given to Gaeta was reportedly "two to four pages of short points of what he was finding," according to former State Department official Victoria Nuland. At the time of the meeting, Steele had written only one report, excluding the majority of the allegations that eventually were compiled into the dossier.
On July 30, Steele met in D.C. with Bruce and Nellie Ohr. At the time, the former was an associate deputy attorney general, and his wife was a Fusion GPS employee, who was separately looking at possible connections between Trump and Russian organized crime. At that meeting at the Mayflower Hotel, Steele told the Ohrs he had "suspicions that Russian Government figures were supporting the candidacy of Donald Trump," as Nellie Ohr later testified.
Bruce Ohr reached out to then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and, eventually, met with McCabe, Strzok and Page. In his testimony, he indicated he did not remember exactly when that happened but that he guessed "it would have been in August since I met with Chris Steele at the end of July, and I'm pretty sure I would have reached out to Andrew McCabe soon afterwards."
The investigation into possible Russian collusion with the Trump campaign, code-named Crossfire Hurricane, began July 31, meaning Ohr was not the conduit. In fact, Page testified to that.

Graham reveals big questions he has ahead of Senate FISA probe
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., revealed key questions he has going into the Senate Judiciary Committee's investigation of the initiation of the Russia probe and the FBI's use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) to conduct surveillance of former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
Graham's investigation comes after the Justice Department Inspector General released a report detailing significant inaccuracies and omissions on the part of the FBI in their FISA warrant applications, misleading the court in the process. A major aspect of the report exposed the degree to which the FBI had relied on the unverified dossier compiled by ex-British spy Christopher Steele as part of opposition research for Hillary Clinton's campaign.
TRUMP THREATENS LAWSUITS OVER MUELLER PROBE, BLASTS PROSECUTORS ON STONE CASE
"Now I want to know, what did McCabe and Comey know, when did they know that the dossier was unreliable?" Graham told "Sunday Morning Futures" host Maria Bartiromo, referring to former FBI Director James Comey and former Acting Director Andrew McCabe. Comey has insisted that he was not aware of what was going on at the time.
Graham mentioned that Steele's primary sub-source had told the FBI that the information in the dossier was not credible. The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman expressed doubt that this information did not reach the upper levels of the FBI.
"I find it hard to believe that that did not work its way up to Comey and McCabe," he said.
To get to the bottom of this, Graham said that he wants to begin his investigation by calling the four individuals who met with the sub-source to speak to the committee.
Graham said he also wanted to know who else was aware of the problems with the dossier, and when they found out, particularly acting Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
"Did Rosenstein know that the dossier had been debunked by the time he signed the warrant? How could he not know?" Graham asked.
Rosenstein oversaw the investigation due to the recusal of then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions. After President Trump fired Comey, it was Rosenstein who appointed Robert Mueller as Special Counsel in charge of the Russia investigation.

"Here's my question to Rosenstein: if you knew then what you know now, that it was a bunch of garbage, would you have appointed Mueller?" Graham asked.
Graham did not specify exactly when he would call witnesses to testify, but the committee is beginning its probe this week.

Q Research General #10530: Patriots Winning Edition
Court dumps Nunes' suit against Trump dossier firm
The judge suggested refiling the case against Fusion GPS could trigger sanctions.
A federal judge has tossed out a racketeering lawsuit House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes filed last year against the private investigation firm at the heart of the Trump-Russia saga.
Alexandria, Virginia-based U.S. District Court Judge Liam O'Grady's two-page order issued Friday made short work of Nunes' suit, which sought $9.9 million in damages from Fusion GPS, its founder Glenn Simpson and a nonprofit watchdog group, Campaign for Accountability.
The judge also signaled that pressing on with the legal battle could result in sanctions against Nunes and his attorney, Steven Biss.
The California GOP lawmaker claimed that he was a victim of "active, coordinated and ongoing corruption, fraud and obstruction of justice" by the defendants that stemmed from his efforts to investigate the firm's role in stoking suspicions about Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's ties to Russia during the 2016 campaign.
Fusion GPS carried out a project for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee that produced a compilation of raw intelligence on the Russian connections of Trump and his allies. The controversial compendium came to be known as the Steele Dossier, after its author, former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele.
Nunes' suit, filed under the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, claims that after he challenged the accuracy of the dossier, Fusion GPS, Simpson and CfA morphed that effort into one targeting him with a series of ethics complaints and other adverse publicity.
However, O'Grady said the allegations in the complaint were too vague to meet standards the Supreme Court laid out in 2007 for the amount of detail needed to move forward with a civil case. He also suggested his Virginia courtroom might not be the right place to sue.
"Defendants raise significant questions and make meritorious arguments as to both the sufficiency of the factual pleadings and the Court's jurisdiction over these Defendants," wrote O'Grady, an appointee of President George W. Bush. "The Amended Complaint includes many rote statements of law and conclusory allegations which fall short of satisfying the pleading standard."
O'Grady said he'd allow a revised version of the suit to be re-filed within 30 days, but he said that should only happen if Nunes can craft a complaint that doesn't violate a federal rule against court filings that are frivolous or unsupported by evidence.
Biss, who has filed a flurry of lawsuits on behalf of Nunes in the past year against news organizations, social media companies and political activists, did not respond to a request for comment on the dismissal order. (Biss is also representing Trump intelligence official Kash Patel in a libel suit against POLITICO.)
An attorney for Fusion GPS and Simpson, Joshua Levy, declined to comment on the decision.
Daniel Stevens, of Campaign for Accountability, welcomed the judge's ruling and said the suit was transparently frivolous.
"The allegations in the complaint were obviously absurd and did not warrant any consideration," Stevens said in a statement Saturday. "Moreover, attempts by Nunes to stifle critics through well-funded lawsuits is an affront to the First Amendment. Nunes should not be allowed to abuse his power to force critics to stand silent in the face of his misconduct. We are gratified that the court put an end to this nonsense. "
A Justice Department inspector general report released in December said the FBI could not prove any of the substantive claims in the dossier and noted that when the FBI interviewed the key "sub-source" for most of the information in the documents, he denied making some of the claims and said that others were mere gossip.

He says [they] say they didn't start their investigation of(spying on) Trump until (July 31), but Bruce Ohr & Nellie Ohr met with Christopher Steele on (July 5).

She says (Durham) is looking even further back to (2015).

- Points out [Corney][Clapper][Brennan][HRC] et al are the ones sowing subversive propaganda that would benefit Russia, not Trump.

I remember the helper anons. I think someone thought I was one once, but I cleared it up.
What I remember most is that I had been convinced that Assange was being brought back to US soil. This probably happened around the time Rohrbacher went to visit him, or not long thereafter.
Today, I was looking through some of Mark Warner's text messages:
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democratic-sen-mark-warner-texted-with-russian-oligarch-lobbyist-in-effort-to-contact-dossier-author-Christopher-Steele
It seems like they would have loved to get Assange over to the US–probably would have given him some of the love they gave to Seth Rich and Epstein.
The point is, we should all be careful making assumptions about who is "helping" Q anonymously here, and just consider everyone as equal in importance to ourselves. Except the obvious shills, that is.

Q Research General #10499: The puzzle is coming together. Edition
This was in NEWS November 2017 (The first month of Q posting)
The top lawyer for the House Intelligence Committee has urged Chairman Devin Nunes to pursue contempt of Congress citations against the FBI and the DOJ for turn over key documents concerning whether the Obama White House used the unsubstantiated "Trump Dossier" to surveil the Trump campaign - an unprecedented misuse of US intelligence services' spying capabilities.
Kash Patel, the senior counsel for the House Intel Committee, wrote:
Chairman Nunes told James Rosen of Fox News:
"We are trying to work with DOJ and the FBI," Nunes told Fox News. "We hope that they will comply, but if they don't, they leave us very few options. We sent subpoenas out in June, July, and August that still haven't been complied with. So, I think stonewalling would be putting it lightly."
The British spy who compiled the infamous dossier on then-candidate Trump, Christopher Steele, says in a new book that he believes it is at least 70% right!

FBI Reportedly Gave Classified Information To Anti-Trump Spy Christopher Steele
https://truepundit.com/fbi-reportedly-gave-classified-information-to-anti-trump-spy-Christopher-Steele/
The FBI not only gave ex-British Intelligence officer Christopher Steele classified information, they paid him to show up to accept the information, according to the Inspector General report released late last year.
The information about Steele received little media attention, but Eric Felten at RealClearInvestigations (my former employer) has now brought that information into the light. Remember, Steele is the one who compiled the infamous Steele Dossier filled with salacious information about President Donald Trump. He was paid by the Hillary Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee.
"The report by Inspector General Michael Horowitz details how a team of FBI agents in early October 2016 shared with Steele extensive classified materials, just weeks before the bureau cut off ties with him for leaking his own research to the media. The secrets included foreign intelligence information still considered so sensitive that the IG's report refers to it even now only as coming from a 'Friendly Foreign Government.' In fact, this is a reference to Australia. That country's ambassador to Britain sent the United States a tip about loose talk by junior Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos. The FBI has described that as the predicate for its Trump-Russia investigation," Felten wrote.
Further, the FBI, according to the IG report, promised Steele $15,000 to attend the meeting where they provided him the classified information.

SARA CARTER: John Kerry Officially Under Investigation As Dossier Probe Targets Obama State Department
by Joshua Caplan March 6, 2018 Contributor Sara A. Carter reports that former Secretary of State John Kerry's "possible role," in the Steele dossier is officially under investigation.
Carter reports:
The House Select Committee on Intelligence is now investigating former Secretary of State John F. Kerry's possible role into the unverified dossier paid for by the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton Campaign, this reporter has learned. The dossier, assembled by a former British spy, laid the foundation for the FBI's investigation into alleged collusion between President Trump and Russia and was the essential piece of evidence used by the FBI to get a warrant to spy on a former volunteer for the Trump campaign.
For more than a month, the committee has been in its second phase of investigations focused on former Obama State Department officials and their role in either transmitting information or using information provided by former British spy and investigator Christopher Steele. Steele was hired by embattled research firm Fusion GPS, also under several congressional and Senate investigations. [...]
Jonathan Winer, a long-time colleague of Kerry and who served as the former envoy for Libya during his tenure at the Department, wrote an opinion piece in the Washington Post on Feb. 8, defending his relationship with Steele and his role in the infamous dossier.
Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) recently revealed to Fox News host Laura Ingraham that Kerry had been briefed on a 'second dossier'.
"There were comments over the weekend from people from within the State Department that said John Kerry had been briefed on the dossier-the new dossier whatever this new dossier is and that they also provided it to the FBI," Nunes told Ingraham.

FBI agents met with Steele in Rome just a month before the 2016 election, where they gave him a "general overview" of Crossfire Hurricane as well as details of the cases against Trump campaign staffers Carter Page, George Papadopoulos, Paul Manafort, and Michael Flynn. In addition to the intel, Steele was compensated $15,000 by the FBI for attending the three-hour meeting.

Q Research General #10428: Show Me Your Meme Face Edition
Author Lee Smith: "We Knew the Clinton Campaign was Giving Information to FBI - It Now Appears FBI was Giving Information to Clinton Campaign as Well"
On Friday the FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was exonerated after admitting to leaking classified information to the press and lying about it under oath several times.
On Friday we also learned the conduct at the Obama FBI under James Comey, Lisa Page, Peter Strzok, Andrew McCabe and others was much worse than we thought.
Last night author Lee Smith joined Jason Chaffetz on The Ingraham Angle on Friday night to discuss the latest developments in the Spygate scandal.
The more we learn - the more corruption is revealed at the top levels of the Obama intelligence community.
On Friday Eric Felton at Real Clear Investigations observed: "Buried in IG Report: How an FBI Team in Rome Gave Steele Highly Guarded Secrets."
Felton points to a meeting in Rome a month before the 2016 election:
A month before the 2016 presidential election, the FBI met Christopher Steele in Rome and apparently unlawfully shared with the foreign opposition researcher some of the bureau's most closely held secrets, according to unpublicized disclosures in the recent Justice Department Inspector General report on abuses of federal surveillance powers.
What's more, Steele, the former British spy who compiled the "dossier" of conspiracy theories for the Hillary Clinton campaign, was promised $15,000 to attend the briefing by FBI agents eager to maintain his cooperation in their Trump-Russia collusion investigation codenamed Crossfire Hurricane.
That investigation was so closely guarded that only a handful of top officials and agents at the FBI were allowed to know about it.
The report by Inspector General Michael Horowitz details how a team of FBI agents in early October 2016 shared with Steele extensive classified materials, just weeks before the bureau cut off ties with him for leaking his own research to the media. The secrets included foreign intelligence information still considered so sensitive that the IG's report refers to it even now only as coming from a "Friendly Foreign Government." In fact, this is a reference to Australia. That country's ambassador to Britain sent the United States a tip about loose talk by junior Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos. The FBI has described that as the predicate for its Trump-Russia investigation.
The IG report also discloses that FBI agents knew Steele worked for Glenn Simpson, whose opposition research firm Fusion GPS was paying Steele to dig up dirt on Trump for the Clinton campaign, and that Steele informed the FBI that the "candidate" - Clinton herself - knew about Steele's work.
According to Lee Smith, the information sharing between the Clinton campaign and the DOJ-FBI was much more extensive than previously reported.
Author Lee Smith: We have known for a long time, of course, that Steele and the Clinton Campaign was providing information to the FBI. It now appears the FBI was giving information to the Clinton campaign, as well. Was that in order to direct the FISA so that they could obtain the spy warrant?... People involved who were sharing this information with Steele including Peter Strzok and Bill Priestap.

Q Research General #10420: The [slam-dunk] Edition
John Brennan Under DOJ Scrutiny, As John Durham's Criminal Investigation Expands
U.S. Attorney John Durham - charged with the criminal probe into the FBI's Russia investigation of the Trump campaign - has been questioning CIA officials closely involved with John Brennan's 2017 intelligence community assessment regarding direct Russian interference in the 2016 election, according to U.S. officials. n May 2017, Brennan denied during a hearing before the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence that its agency relied on the now debunked Christopher Steele dossier for the Intelligence Community Assessment report. He told then Congressman Trey Gowdy "we didn't" use the Steele dossier. "It wasn't part of the corpus of intelligence information that we had," Brennan stated. "It was not in any way used as a basis for the Intelligence Community assessment that was done. It was - it was not."
However, DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz confirmed in his report that the dossier was used in the Obama administration's 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA). As stated in the IG report, there were discussions by top intelligence officials as to whether the Steele dossier should be included in the ICA report. But upon careful inspection of Horowitz's report, on page 179, investigators ask former FBI Director James Comey if he discussed the dossier with Brennan and whether or not it should be given to President Obama. According to the report, Comey told investigators that Brennan said it was "important" enough to include in the ICA - clearly part of the "corpus of intelligence information" they had.
According to a recent report by The New York Times, Durham's probe is specifically looking at that January 2017 intelligence community assessment, which concluded with "high confidence" that Russian President Vladimir Putin "ordered an influence campaign in 2016." From the New York Times: "Mr. Durham appears to be pursuing a theory that the C.I.A., under its former director John O. Brennan, had a preconceived notion about Russia or was trying to get to a particular result - and was nefariously trying to keep other agencies from seeing the full picture lest they interfere with that goal, the people said." Sources with knowledge have said CIA officials questioned by Durham's investigative team "are extremely concerned with the investigation and the direction it's heading." Brennan's assessment stated that Putin wanted to "undermine public faith in the U.S. democratic process, denigrate former Secretary of State [Hillary] Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency." It also stated that Putin "developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump."
But not everyone agreed with Brennan. The NSA then under retired Adm. Mike Rogers stated it only had "moderate confidence" that Putin tried to help Trump's election. As stated in the New York times Durham is investigating whether Brennan was keeping other intelligence agencies out of the loop to keep his narrative that Putin was helping Trump's campaign public. "I wouldn't call it a discrepancy, I'd call it an honest difference of opinion between three different organizations, and, in the end, I made that call," Rogers told the Senate in May 2017. "It didn't have the same level of sourcing and the same level of multiple sources."
According to The Times Durham is reviewing emails from the CIA, FBI, and National Security Agency analysts who worked on the January, 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russia's interference in the election. Durham's office could not be reached for comment. DOJ spokesperson Kerri Kupec also could not be reached for comment. However, Brennan told MSNBC's "Hardball" last week, that Durham's questioning is dangerous. "It's kind of silly," he said. "Is there a criminal investigation now on analytic judgments and the activities of C.I.A. in terms of trying to protect our national security? I'm certainly willing to talk to Mr. Durham or anybody else who has any questions about what we did during this period of 2016."

Q Research General #10420: The [slam-dunk] Edition
Buried in IG Report: How an FBI Team in Rome Gave Steele Highly Guarded Secrets
A month before the 2016 presidential election, the FBI met Christopher Steele in Rome and apparently unlawfully shared with the foreign opposition researcher some of the bureau's most closely held secrets, according to unpublicized disclosures in the recent Justice Department Inspector General report on abuses of federal surveillance powers. What's more, Steele, the former British spy who compiled the "dossier" of conspiracy theories for the Hillary Clinton campaign, was promised $15,000 to attend the briefing by FBI agents eager to maintain his cooperation in their Trump-Russia collusion investigation codenamed Crossfire Hurricane. That investigation was so closely guarded that only a handful of top officials and agents at the FBI were allowed to know about it.
The report by Inspector General Michael Horowitz details how a team of FBI agents in early October 2016 shared with Steele extensive classified materials, just weeks before the bureau cut off ties with him for leaking his own research to the media. The secrets included foreign intelligence information still considered so sensitive that the IG's report refers to it even now only as coming from a "Friendly Foreign Government." In fact, this is a reference to Australia. That country's ambassador to Britain sent the United States a tip about loose talk by junior Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos. The FBI has described that as the predicate for its Trump-Russia investigation. The IG report also discloses that FBI agents knew Steele worked for Glenn Simpson, whose opposition research firm Fusion GPS was paying Steele to dig up dirt on Trump for the Clinton campaign, and that Steele informed the FBI that the "candidate" - Clinton herself - knew about Steele's work. Steele did not keep to himself the classified material he had learned from the FBI. Shortly after the Rome meeting, Steele briefed Simpson on what the FBI had disclosed to him.
The FBI's disclosures to Steele – described on pages 114-115 and in footnote 513, and supported on pages 386-390 and footnotes 252 and 513, deep in Horowitz's report - were violations of laws governing the handling of classified material, according to the Inspector General and experts in national security law who spoke with RealClearInvestigations. The Department of Justice did not respond to questions from RealClearInvestigations. Steele and Simpson did not respond to interview requests placed with their offices.

Report: FBI Handed Over Classified Information To Spy Christopher Steele
Buried in IG Report: How an FBI Team in Rome Gave Steele Highly Guarded Secrets
Inspector General Michael Horowitz discovered that FBI agents shared extensive classified materials with former British spy Christopher Steele, despite knowing the Democratic National Committee was paying Steele and that Hillary Clinton herself was aware of Steele's research, according to a new report by Eric Felten at RealClearInvestigations.
FBI agents met with Steele in Rome just a month before the 2016 election, where they gave him a "general overview" of Crossfire Hurricane as well as details of the cases against Trump campaign staffers Carter Page, George Papadopoulos, Paul Manafort, and Michael Flynn. In addition to the intel, Steele was compensated $15,000 by the FBI for attending the three-hour meeting.

The Washington Free Beacon is an American conservative political journalism website launched in 2012. It states that it is "dedicated to uncovering the stories that the powers that be hope will never see the light of day" and producing "in-depth investigative reporting on a wide range of issues, including public policy, government affairs, international security, and media."[1]

The website is financially backed by Paul Singer, an American billionaire hedge fund manager and conservative activist.[2]
History Edit
The Free Beacon was founded by Michael Goldfarb, Aaron Harrison, and Matthew Continetti, who remains its editor-in-chief. It launched on February 7, 2012, as a project of the 501(c)4 organization Center for American Freedom.[3] In August 2014, it announced it was becoming a for-profit news site.[citation needed]
The site is noted for its conservative reporting, intended to publicize stories and influence the coverage of the mainstream media, and modeled after liberal counterparts in the media such as ThinkProgress and Talking Points Memo.[3][4][5] The site has roots in the neoconservative wing of the Republican Party.[6] Jack Hunter, a staff member of U.S. Senator Rand Paul's office, resigned in 2013 after a Free Beacon report detailing his past as a radio shock jock known as the "Southern Avenger" who wore a luchador mask of the Confederate flag.[citation needed] The publication also broke several stories about former First Lady and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's successful 1975 legal defense of an accused child rapist that attracted national media attention.[4][7] In May 2017, it received an award from The Heritage Foundation for its journalism.[8]
From October 2015 to May 2016, the Washington Free Beacon hired Fusion GPS to conduct opposition research on "multiple candidates" during the 2016 presidential election, including Donald Trump. The Free Beacon stopped funding this research when Donald Trump had clinched the Republican nomination.[9] Fusion GPS would later hire former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele and produce a dossier alleging links between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. Paul Singer, a billionaire and hedge fund manager, who is a major donor to the Free Beacon, said he was unaware of this dossier until it was published by BuzzFeed in January 2017.[10] On October 27, 2017, the Free Beacon publicly disclosed that it had hired Fusion GPS, and stated that it "had no knowledge of or connection to the Steele dossier, did not pay for the dossier, and never had contact with, knowledge of, or provided payment for any work performed by Christopher Steele."[11]
The Free Beacon came under criticism for its reporting on Fusion GPS. Three days before it was revealed that it was the Free Beacon that had funded the work by Fusion GPS, the Free Beacon wrote that the firm's work "was funded by an unknown GOP client while the primary was still going on."[12] The Free Beacon has also published pieces that have sought to portray the work by Fusion GPS as unreliable "without noting that it considered Fusion GPS reliable enough to pay for its services."[12] In an editor's note, Continetti said "the reason for this omission is that the authors of these articles, and the particular editors who reviewed them, were unaware of this relationship," and that the outlet was reviewing its editorial process to avoid similar issues in the future.[13]

House Intel Committee Republicans Boycott Hearing Due to Schiff's Refusal to Address FISA Abuses
Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee boycotted a hearing on Wednesday, complaining that the committee's Democratic chairman Adam Schiff has neglected proper oversight of the intelligence community by failing to hold a hearing on the Justice Department inspector general's report detailing the FBI's FISA abuses.
"Under your chairmanship, the House Intelligence Committee has strayed far from its mandate of overseeing the Intelligence Community," the panel's nine GOP members wrote in a letter to Schiff obtained by the Daily Caller.
"Until the Committee prioritizes oversight activities related to urgent and critical concerns, Republican Members cannot support distractions from our core responsibilities," they added.
The Republican representatives afterwards boycotted a hearing of the Strategic Technology and Advanced Research Subcommittee on the development of artificial intelligence for national security, criticizing the hearing as a "publicity event."
In December, the Justice Department's inspector general released a report concluding that the FBI omitted crucial details in its requests for warrants to surveil Trump campaign associate Carter Page, specifically that the agency neglected to inform the FISA court that the controversial Steele dossier, cited in applications to spy on Page, was unreliable.
The dossier was compiled by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele who was investigating Donald Trump for an opposition research firm hired by the Hillary Clinton campaign. The dossier purported to show connections between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin.
The DOJ inspector general did not say the FISA court should have declined to grant the warrants, but Attorney General William Barr has disagreed, saying the FBI launched an "intrusive investigation" of the Trump campaign on the "thinnest of suspicions" that were "insufficient to justify the steps taken."
"We have gone months at a time in which we've hardly held any oversight-related briefings or hearings at all," the Intelligence Committee Republicans wrote to Schiff. "Until the Committee prioritizes oversight activities related to urgent and critical concerns, Republican Members cannot support distractions from our core responsibilities."

Lindsey Graham says Giuliani info on Hunter Biden's Ukraine dealings should go through DOJ
Sen. Lindsey Graham on Sunday said he would turn over any information that President Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani uncovers about Hunter Biden and Ukraine to the Justice Department for vetting - because he doesn't intend to become "the Republican Christopher Steele."
"Here's what I want to tell the president: I'm not going to be the Republican Christopher Steele," Graham (R-SC) told CBS' "Face the Nation," referring to the former British spy whose dossier of unsubstantiated claims played a role in former special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.
"Rudy Giuliani last night said he's got the goods on Hunter Biden," Graham said, adding he called Attorney General Bill Barr and Sen. Richard Burr, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, earlier Sunday and they told him to "take very cautiously anything coming out of the Ukraine against anybody."

Justice Department receiving information on Bidens from Giuliani: Senator
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Justice Department is receiving information on former Vice President Joe Biden and his businessman son, Hunter Biden, from President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, a top Trump ally in the Senate said on Sunday.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham said Attorney General William Barr told him about the arrangement on Sunday morning and that Justice Department officials were evaluating Giuliani's information to determine whether it is genuine.
"The Department of Justice is receiving information coming out of the Ukraine from Rudy. He (Barr) told me that they have created a process that Rudy could give information and they would see if it's verified," Graham told the CBS News program Face the Nation.
Justice Department officials were not immediately available for comment.
News of the arrangement surfaced days after the Senate acquitted Trump on impeachment charges that he abused his power by asking Ukraine to investigate the Bidens.
Trump had based his demands on unfounded allegations of corruption. House investigators alleged that Giuliani pursued damaging information about the Bidens in Ukraine as Trump's personal lawyer.
Hunter Biden sat on the board of the Ukrainian gas company Burisma while Joe Biden, now a Democratic presidential candidate, was vice president.
Two Republican senators - Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson - are also conducting an investigation of U.S. government records to determine whether there was a conflict of interest.
Graham said he spoke to Barr and Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr on Sunday, after Giuliani told an interviewer that he had unearthed key evidence from Ukraine.
"They told me: 'Take very cautiously anything coming out of the Ukraine against anybody,'" Graham said.
"Any documents coming out of the Ukraine against any American, Republican or Democrat, need to be looked at by the intelligence services who have expertise - I don't - because Russia is playing us all like a fiddle."
Graham said he would refrain from his own probe of the Bidens and concentrate instead on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court's decision to issue warrants that led to a federal investigation into allegations that Trump's 2016 presidential campaign colluded with Russia to interfere in the election.
"Here's what I want to tell the president: I'm not going to be the Republican Christopher Steele," Graham said.
Steele is the former British spy who produced a dossier on Trump that the FBI used in its Russia probe. Republicans have condemned the dossier as a sham document filled with Russian propaganda.

Hi Baker. Can anonone try to answer this?
Does CLAS 1-99 = a list of 99 classifications of CIA methods within an investigation
or
Does CLAS 1-99 = 99 classified Military Intelligence files describing the 16 year plan to overthrow America = Drop 570
or
Does CLAS 1-99 = an extended set of CLAS 1-56 = CLAS 1,2,3 = CLAS 23,24,25.....41
or
Does Drop 3411 shit all over this whole post with [CIA_CLAS 1-99_56_Human_Psych_&_Emotional_Distress_IIED] aka BOOHOOTIME???
Sometimes within a drop CLASsified is referenced when explaining.
From Drop 570
[The 16 Year Plan To Destroy America] = [CLAS 1-99]
I read this as 99 separate classified files explaining "the 16 year plan to destroy USA"
I connect these two because they are both in brackets, isolated in post 570 (could be right, think +) (+ = pos = positive =/= piece of schiff)
the other brackets marked with A and B
A = 1,2,3 of the 99 classified investigations of the 99 that make up the "16 year plan"
B = 23,24,25...41 of the 99 classified investigations of the 99 that make up the "16 year plan"
A = [Clas-1,2,3] = [Nuke Build] (is the "- sign" before "1" a typo. Q don't make errors. Why "Clas" lower case and the "-" sign?)
B = [CLAS 23-47] = [fund and supply]
In Drop 570 "CLAS 1-59" also appears, but does not have brackets [ ] around it.
C = is "CLAS 1-59" a separate group of 59 classified docs = the 2nd 8 years of the 16 year plan to destroy the USA?
"CLAS 1-59" is after "CLAS 1-99" classified explanation within Drop 570.
or
Could "CLAS 1-59" be the same first 59 classified docs of "CLAS 1-99"??? I don't think so.
There are not that many CLAS 1-99 references out of 3850 drops

Christopher Steele Is Not Happy That Trump Slammed The 'Fake Dossier'
Christopher Steele's intelligence firm responded to President Trump's comments on Thursday about the "fake dossier."
Orbis Business Intelligence, Steele's London-based company, said that Trump made "false claims" about the dossier.
The dossier was all but debunked by the special counsel's report and DOJ inspector general's report.
The inspector general blasted the FBI for its handling of information from Steele, who investigated Trump on behalf of the Clinton campaign and DNC.

Christopher Steele, a former MI6 spy, is accused in a new report written by a leading British spy writer of fabricating the dossier which accused President Donald J. Trump of being compromised in the election due to Russian intelligence having compromising material on the president.
This dossier was used to allow the FBI permission to open several unwarranted investigations into Trump's Cabinet members.
"The report, seen by The Sunday Times, concludes that 'lapses' in the dossier 'bear the hallmarks of invention' and concludes: 'There is . . . a strong possibility that all Steele's material has been fabricated,' as published in The Sunday Times.
Immediately proceeding the Inspector General to the United Stated Justice Department issuing the report in December depicting Steele's dossier as "hearsay," Nigel West was free to go public with his findings.

Hakeem Jeffries Says Steele Dossier Doesn't Count As Foreign Interference Because It Was 'Purchased'
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries answers a question at the Senate trial of President Trump, Jan. 30, 2020.

8:23 PM ET
Democratic Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, one of the House impeachment managers, argued Thursday that Democrats' hiring of a former British spy to collect dirt from Russian sources about the Trump campaign does not constitute foreign interference in the 2016 presidential election.
The New York congressman's argument was based on the puzzling logic that Democrats paid for the information from the retired spy, Christopher Steele, rather than simply obtaining it.
"The analogy is not applicable to the present situation because first, to the extent that opposition research was obtained, it was opposition research that was purchased," Jeffries said in response to a question from Sen. Richard Burr and a group of Republican senators.
The Republicans had asked: "Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee hired a retired foreign spy to work with Russian contacts to build a dossier of opposition research against her political opponent, Donald Trump. Under the House managers' standard would the dossier be considered as foreign interference in a U.S. election, a violation of the law, and/or an impeachable offense?"
The Clinton campaign and DNC, through their law firm, paid just over $1 million to opposition research firm Fusion GPS to investigate Donald Trump and members of his campaign.
As part of the project, Fusion GPS hired Steele, a former British spy, to look into Trump's ties to Russia. Steele relied on a network of sources to collect information from Russian government officials.
Steele provided the information to the FBI and members of the media.
Republicans have long cited Democrats' hiring of Steele to rebut allegations that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia. The special counsel's investigation failed to establish that Trump or any of his associates conspired with Russians.
Jeffries's claim prompted a sarcastic response from Trump attorney Jay Sekulow.
"So, I guess you could buy, this is what it sounds like, you can buy a foreign interference," said Sekulow. "You can purchase, if you purchase it, you purchase their opposition research, I guess it's okay."

Bill Kristol-John Podesta Collaboration Quietly Cited in Mainstream Media Impeachment Coverage
Alliance for Securing Democracy is a Deep State Who's Who
The Alliance For Securing Democracy is popping up in the mainstream press during the President Trump impeachment saga to offer supposed expertise on Russian disinformation. Though presented in the mainstream media as a credible source of punditry, Alliance For Securing Democracy is actually a group of bipartisan anti-Trump neocon/neoliberal operatives closely linked to the Deep State. The Alliance For Securing Democracy was recently cited in the Washington Post article "Russian spies hacked Ukrainian gas company at heart of Trump impeachment trial, company says," by Ellen Nakashima, and the New York Times article 'Chaos Is The Point': Russian Hackers and Trolls Grow Stealthier in 2020." The group clearly exists to push the narrative that Russians and other disinformation agents are influencing the 2020 election as Democrat allies gear up to push for increased censorship of pro-Trump information on the Internet, and it also seems to find time to criticize President Trump's trade policy. The group has a new 2.0 version of its "Hamilton 68" dashboard for monitoring supposed Russian influence online.
The group's Advisory Council includes former Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol, Hillary Clinton campaign boss John Podesta, Bush Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff, John McCain operative David Kramer (who infamously circulated the discredited anti-Trump Christopher Steele dossier in the nation's capital), Obama's Russia ambassador Mike McFaul, and Hillary Clinton's State Department deputy chief of staff Jake Sullivan (who testified that he used non-secure email along with Clinton), in addition to various other statist Intel-World radicals and former government officials. The group has over 175 individual and foundation donors, and lists six of them on its "Supporters" page, including Democracy Fund founded by ebay founder Pierre Omidyar, the Sandler Foundation, and the Bernard and Anne Spitzer Charitable Trust named for Eliot Spitzer's parents.
"The Alliance for Securing Democracy (ASD), a bipartisan initiative housed at the German Marshall Fund of the United States, develops comprehensive strategies to deter, defend against, and raise the costs on authoritarian efforts to undermine and interfere in democratic institutions. ASD brings together experts on disinformation, malign finance, emerging technologies, elections integrity, economic coercion, and cybersecurity, as well as regional experts, to collaborate across traditional stovepipes and develop cross-cutting frameworks," the organization's website states.

GOP congressman asked former Ukraine minister about Eric Ciaramella, CIA officer alleged to be whistleblower
Eric Ciaramella, Elizabeth Zentos, Natalie Jaresko, & Olga Bielkova
11-4-19
A conservative Republican in Congress raised the name of the CIA officer accused of being the Ukraine whistleblower during a congressional hearing about Puerto Rico last month.
Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas asked Natalie Jaresko, Ukraine's former finance minister, who is now executive director of the Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico, whether she had any involvement with National Security Council officials in her previous post. He cited an April 2016 meeting at a Le Pain Quotidien restaurant close to the White House between Eric Ciaramella, another White House official, and Ukrainian parliamentarian Olga Bielkova.
A Foreign Agents Registration Act filing shows that the meeting was arranged by Doug Schoen, a longtime Hillary Clinton ally and registered foreign lobbyist for Ukrainian billionaire Victor Pinchuk. The same day, Schoen arranged for Bielkova to meet with David Kramer, who flew to Britain in 2016 to meet former MI6 spy Christopher Steele, author of a dossier containing incendiary allegations about President Trump.
Jaresko was testifying before the House Natural Resources Committee on Oct. 22 about Puerto Rico's debt. An American-born Ukrainian investment banker, she was Ukraine's minister of finance between 2014 and 2016.
Last week, attorneys for the whistleblower who submitted a complaint about Trump's July 25 call with Ukraine's president, prompting the impeachment process to begin, declined to confirm or deny that their client was Ciaramella, 33, a career CIA analyst. After it was reported that Ciaramella was the whistleblower, attorneys Mark Zaid and Andrew Bakaj told the Washington Examiner in a statement: "We neither confirm nor deny the identity of the Intelligence Community Whistleblower."
During the October hearing, Gohmert asked Jaresko: "I'm curious, in your position there in Ukraine - were you aware of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko dispatching Olga Bielkova or any other Ukrainian official to the U.S. in order to conduct an influence campaign on the 2016 election here in the United States?"
Jaresko replied she had no "knowledge of that" after she attempted to explain she was only at the hearing to testify about the Puerto Rico board. But Gohmert said her "credibility is an issue" and asked again if she had knowledge of Poroshenko sending Bielkova to the U.S. and how that trip was funded. She responded she did not have answers to either question, noting the trip did not occur when she was minister of finance. "Well, you were there," Gohmert said.
Chairman Raul Grijalva interjected, accusing Gohmert of pursuing conspiracy theories and straying from the subject of the hearing, the Puerto Rico board. Gohmert shot back at the Arizona Democrat, "My clock is still running as the chairman is eating up my time, lecturing me, and trying to cover up this matter," he said.
The Texas Republican continued: "Well, let me ask you, Ms. Jaresko, are you aware of Ukrainian parliamentarian Bielkova April 12, meetings with Liz Zentos and Eric Ciaramella of the Obama and National Security Council?"
Jaresko said she was not aware of any meetings between them. According to Jaresko, she became the executive director of the Financial Oversight and Management Board of Puerto Rico by being recruited by the members of the board "based on her experience as minister of finance in both the fiscal area and the debt restructuring that I did in Ukraine."
The day she became finance minister, she was granted Ukrainian citizenship and lived in Ukraine from her initial posting in the U.S. State Department as the economics officer in 1992 until she left and took her current post in 2017.
Gohmert told the Washington Examiner, "Specifically, I asked about an April 12, 2016, meeting between Ukrainian parliamentarian Olga Bielkova and Liz Zentos and Eric Ciaramella of the National Security Council, in which energy issues were discussed. I thought it was prudent to ask Ms. Jaresko on the record and under oath about this meeting, since the time frame and subject align with the concerning reports of Joe Biden and Hunter Biden's dealings in Ukraine."
The congressman added: "She said she had no knowledge of this meeting. Ms. Jaresko has previously said of Joe Biden's relationship with Ukraine: 'Joe's role was unique and valuable and will be very hard to duplicate.' If that is true, then the significance of a meeting like this one cannot be understated."
Schoen arranged Washington meetings for Bielkova on behalf of Pinchuk. These included the one with Ciaramella and his then-boss Zentos, now political and economic chief at the U.S. Embassy in Tblisi.

West v. Steele: Trump-Russia dossier was 'FABRICATION,' colleague & spy expert revealed... YEARS ago
One of Britain's leading experts on espionage, Nigel West, was hired to examine the dossier written by his friend Christopher Steele. He concluded it was rubbish. So why did it take almost three years for his story to come out?
Steele's scandalous document, which claimed extensive ties between the then-US President-elect Donald Trump and the Kremlin, was published by BuzzFeed in January 2017 and quickly became the cornerstone of 'Russiagate.' Media talking heads insisted that much of it had been corroborated. In fact, nothing was.
West, hired to examine the dossier back in 2017, quickly concluded that "there is… a strong possibility that all Steele's material has been fabricated," according to the Sunday Times.
This is not just anybody's opinion, either. West - the pen name of former MP Rupert Allason - is one of Britain's foremost authorities on intelligence matters, and happens to known Steele personally, having met him at a NATO intelligence conference some years back.
"I've always had the highest respect for him," West told RT on Monday. Which is why he was surprised to discover some basic errors in the dossier, such as treating one particular source as an expert in three entirely different fields, or making up the existence of the Russian consulate in Miami, Florida.
The source in question starts out as a middle-manager at the Ritz-Carlton in Moscow, but is later described as an expert on cyber warfare, and later yet as an expert on money-laundering by Russian immigrants in the US, West explained.
On the face of it, it looked inherently improbable that this single source was as proclaimed.
Back in early 2017, it didn't matter. Steele had claimed that the Russian intelligence obtained compromising material - "kompromat" - on Trump, specifically a recording of him with prostitutes at the Ritz-Carlton in 2013, urinating on the same bed where US President Barack Obama had slept previously. Even FBI director at the time, Jim Comey, described the dossier as "salacious and unverified" in a testimony to Congress - which did not stop him from signing an application for a FISA warrant that the Bureau used to spy on the Trump campaign via one of its advisers, Carter Page.

To bolster Mr. Steele's credibility, Mr. Schiff said this about Trump campaign adviser Carter Page and Russian oil giant Rosneft: "Is it a coincidence that the Russian gas company Rosneft sold a 19% share after former British intelligence officer Steele was told by Russian sources that Carter Page was offered fees on a deal of just that size?"
The only coincidence was that the 19% figure was in the press weeks before Mr. Steele wrote his memo.
Mr. Schiff also quoted Mr. Steele on a purported conspiracy between campaign chairman Paul Manafort and Mr. Page: "According to Steele, it was Manafort who chose Page to serve as a go-between for the Trump campaign and Russian interests."
Independent evidence shows the two never knew or spoke with each other.
Mr. Schiff also said Mr. Steele was "highly regarded" by U.S. intelligence.
When Mr. Page later appeared before the committee, Mr. Schiff repeatedly quoted the dossier in questioning the former aide, forcing him to disprove what Mr. Steele had written.
Mr. Schiff also tried to use Mr. Page to prove another dossier allegation: that Trump attorney Michael Cohen secretly traveled to Prague to visit operatives of Russian President Vladimir Putin. He asked Mr. Page whether his 2016 trip to Hungary was linked to Cohen.
By November 2017, Mr. Schiff was dismissing critics and sticking by Mr. Steele and his dossier.
"So I think this is a bit of an effort to discredit Christopher Steele, discredit the dossier, ignore how much of it has been corroborated already and ignore the fact that the intelligence community is operating from a broad array of sources as a way of basically calling this all a hoax. And it just doesn't add up to me," he said on CNN.
Naked Trump photos
The dossier disclosure was not the only time Mr. Schiff welcomed Kremlin claims into the political process. He also sought naked photos of Mr. Trump from Moscow via a politician in Ukraine.
He was pranked by two Russian comedians, one of whom posed as a Ukrainian official. During a lengthy phone call, Mr. Schiff eagerly questioned the impostors on the types of compromising photos he could obtain, according to a recording posted online.
Later, a top Schiff aide reached out to the Russian and asked whether the material was being delivered to the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington.
Evidence
Mr. Schiff said several times that he had seen evidence of Trump-Russia collusion to interfere in the election and it was beyond circumstantial.
He began this talking point in March 2017.
"I can tell you that the case is more than that," he said on MSNBC. "And I can't go into the particulars, but there is more than circumstantial evidence now."
Special counsel Robert Mueller said in his March 2019 report that he did not find a Trump election conspiracy. No Trump associate was charged in such a conspiracy.

Like the phony "Russia dossier" on Trump produced by Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS for Hillary Clinton and the DNC, the CrowdStrike "analysis" quickly came unraveled under expert examination. Among the many authoritative refutations of CrowdStrike's claims are an early analysis by former top IBM executive Skip Folden, entitled "Non-Existent Foundation for Russian Hacking Charge" and "Intel Vets Challenge 'Russia Hack' Evidence" by Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS). The VIPS study, led by the legendary Dr. William Binney, a former technical director at the NSA, also benefitted from the input of VIPS members who were cybersecurity experts with the NSA, CIA, DIA, FBI, and military intelligence.

'Senator Chuck Grassley announced an expanded probe Wednesday into the Department of Defense's Office of Net Assessment (ONA) and its awarding of defense contracts to Stefan Halper, in order to see whether ONA illicitly authorized funds for the former professor to spy on the 2016 Trump campaign.
Halper, an FBI source who met with and recorded Trump associates Carter Page, Sam Clovis, and George Papadopoulos, according to Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz's December report, has been awarded more than $1 million in contracts by ONA since 2012.
Grassley points to several contracts awarded to Halper in a letter to James Baker, the director of ONA, as examples "that clearly indicate weak or non-existent internal controls."
Evaluators raised "several weaknesses," including a lack of substance, in a 2012 contract proposal by Halper that were ultimately ignored. For a 2015 proposal, Halper listed a Russian intelligence official as an adviser, who was then cited by Christopher Steele as source for his now-infamous dossier.
Halper's last contract, awarded in September 2016, mentions "unknown third parties" paying for Halper's trip to Japan to interview "former high-level U.S. and foreign government officials," but Grassley points out that the IG later found none of Halper's 348 footnotes in the subsequent study cited any interviews.'

'Strong' paper trail has John Durham investigating the months before Mueller appointment
January 17, 2020
A trail of documents has reportedly led Attorney General William Barr's handpicked federal prosecutor to focus his inquiry into the origins of the Russia investigation on the first several months of President Trump's tenure.
John Durham, a U.S. attorney from Connecticut, is zeroing in on the period spanning from January 2017, when Trump took office, to May of that year. A "strong" paper trail, as CBS News senior investigative correspondent Catherine Herridge put it on Friday, has led the investigation into possible misconduct by federal law enforcement and intelligence officials to that time frame.
Durham's office declined to comment for this report.
While Trump and his allies have championed Durham's effort, Democrats have dismissed the allegations of wrongdoing during the Trump-Russia investigation and are concerned the inquiry may be an effort to discredit the work of special counsel Robert Mueller. Trump gave Barr full declassification authority for the endeavor.
Barr and Durham have traveled around the world for the investigation, and Durham's team has already asked witnesses about possible anti-Trump bias among former FBI officials. The secretive DOJ inquiry includes scrutiny of former CIA Director John Brennan, former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former FBI special agent Peter Strzok, and British ex-spy Christopher Steele.

BREAKING: Deep State Snake Mary McCord Goes from Setting Up General Flynn to Working for Adam Schiff

Former Obama DOJ-NSD Head Mary McCord was involved in setting up General Flynn in the White House days after the 2017 Inauguration. Now she is reportedly working for Adam Schiff with her former lawyer at the DOJ, the now ICIG Michael Atkinson. McCord is as crooked as they get.
The Last Refuge posted some tweets yesterday that tie former Obama DOJ NSD head Mary McCord to the whole corrupt and criminal whistleblower complaint that started the Democrats fraudulent Ukrainian sham impeachment.
Julie Kelly at American Greatness published a post about the ICIG Atkinson. She pointed out his ties to his former boss, McCord:
A report issued last month by Atkinson's counterpart at the Justice Department, Michael Horowitz, offered a detailed account of how that agency, specifically the FBI, violated the law to obtain a warrant to spy on Carter Page for a year. Horowitz identified 17 "significant errors" on the initial application and three subsequent renewals submitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.
The office responsible for the government's FISA process is the Justice Department's National Security Division. The head of the NSD during the first several months of the secret surveillance on Carter Page was acting Assistant Attorney General Mary McCord.
McCord's senior counsel? Michael Atkinson.
From July 2016-the same month the FBI opened its investigation into the Trump campaign-until he was appointed the intelligence community's watchdog in early 2018, Atkinson served as a high-ranking official in the same Justice Department attempting to take down Donald Trump.
McCord, an Obama appointee and Atkinson's boss for seven months, not only managed three of the four FISAs on Carter Page, she ran the department's investigation into Trump-Russia collusion until she resigned in the spring of 2017.
McCord is mentioned more than two dozen times in Horowitz's report. She became the division's acting chief right before the department approved the first FISA application on Page.
Atkinson was her lawyer.
According to the Horowitz report, McCord "was involved in certain aspects of the [Trump campaign] investigation . . . with the first Carter Page FISA application in September and October 2016." McCord also attended numerous briefings related to Crossfire Hurricane, the official name of the FBI's counterintelligence probe into four Trump campaign associates.
McCord, who was interviewed by Horowitz, told the inspector general she informed Andrew McCabe, the former FBI deputy director, that the first FISA application "needed to include more information about who hired [Christopher] Steele." She recalled "asking about Steele's fee arrangement with Fusion GPS" just days before the first application was filed on October 21, 2016. (An interesting detail since McCord unconvincingly claimed in a podcast interview last month that she didn't see Steele's dossier until it was published in BuzzFeed in January 2017, a common trope recited by Obama loyalists.)
These gangsters from the Obama era are still in place in the the Deep State FBI and DOJ and are still doing all they can to harass this President with false claims and fraudulent cases. Americans are getting very close to the tipping point with all of this and no indictments of the Deep State card carrying members.

IG Report Bombshell: Did The FBI And DOJ Ask Putin's Buddy To Help Get Trump?
DOJ official Bruce Ohr called a meeting of several federal agencies to discuss 'working with' a Russian oligarch because of his belief, premised on the unverified Steele dossier, that Trump was corrupt.
A previously unnoticed passage in Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report on federal surveillance abuse suggests Bruce Ohr and his compatriots were willing to bargain with a Russian oligarch to take down Donald Trump. Two-hundred-plus pages into the IG report, while discussing former Associate Deputy Attorney General Ohr's continued contacts with Crossfire Hurricane dossier author Christopher Steele, Horowitz revealed a significant detail that to date has been overlooked: "On December 7, 2016, Ohr conveyed an interagency meeting (including representatives from the FBI) regarding strategy in dealing with Russian Oligarch 1." The IG report added that after the meeting "one of Ohr's junior Department colleagues who attended the meeting" asked "Ohr about why the U.S. government would support trying to work with Russian Oligarch 1"-the moniker used in the IG report to refer to one of Vladimir Putin's closest confidants, the aluminum oligarch Oleg Deripaska. Ohr's reported response is shocking: "Ohr told her that Steele provided information that the Trump campaign had been corrupted by the Russians," and that the corruption went all the way to president-elect Trump. Ohr's junior colleague told the IG that Ohr explained "this information was 'the basis for the [Deripaska] discussion" in the interagency meeting they had just left.
It has been known for some time that Steele spoke with Ohr about Deripaska. But while the Steele-friendly press portrayed those discussions as FBI attempts to flip Deripaska, the IG reached a different conclusion. He found "Steele performed work for Russian Oligarch 1's attorney on Russian Oligarch 1's litigation matters, and, as described later in Chapter Nine, passed information to Department attorney Bruce Ohr advocating on behalf of one of Russian Oligarch 1's companies regarding U.S. sanctions." The IG further found that Ohr and Steele's communications concerning Deripaska occurred "in 2016 during the time period before and after Steele was terminated as a [Confidential Human Source]."
These findings, coupled with previous reports that Steele worked for one of Deripaska's lawyers, London-based Paul Hauser, and appeared to lobby on behalf of Deripaska through a D.C.-based attorney, Adam Waldman, renew questions concerning whether Steele violated the Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA). Likewise, the IG report's notes that "Ohr said that he understood Steele was 'angling' for Ohr to assist him with his clients' issues," and that "Ohr stated that Steele was hoping that Ohr would intercede on his behalf with the Department attorney handling a matter involving a European company," suggest the need for a FARA investigation into Steele's work. But the larger question concerns what the above excerpted passage from the IG report suggests about the December 7, 2016 meeting.

e proposal to reform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court would require the signatures of both the attorney general and FBI director to launch a counterintelligence operation into a presidential campaign, Attorney General William Barr said.
The FBI during the Obama administration applied to spy on Trump 2016 presidential campaign associate Carter Page using information from a dossier compiled by ex-British spy Christopher Steele, who was paid by the Democratic National Committee and the campaign of rival candidate Hillary Clinton.
Barr was asked on Monday about a recent apology from FBI Director Christopher Wray over how the FBI handled the Page situation and what changes he wants to see to the secretive court.
"We're considering a number of additional things," Barr told reporters at an unrelated press conference in Washington. "Chris Wray and I have discussed a number of possibilities."

Tomlinson then attempted to assist Mohamed al-Fayed in his privately funded investigation into the death of Diana, Princess of Wales and al-Fayed's son Dodi. Tomlinson claimed that MI6 had considered assassinating Slobodan Milo?evi?, the president of Serbia, by staging a car crash using a powerful strobe light to blind the driver. He suggested that Diana and Dodi may have been killed by MI6 in the same way, although that claim was dismissed at their inquest in 2007. MI6 admitted that plans of that nature had been drafted regarding a different Eastern European official, but that the proposal had been swiftly rejected by management
Christopher Steele IS MENTIONED
In May 1999, a list of 116 alleged MI6 agents was sent to the LaRouche movement's publication Executive Intelligence Review,[40] a weekly magazine which published it online.[41] Its names included Andrew Fulton, who had recently retired, Christopher Steele, David Spedding and Richard Dearlove.[42][43][44] MI6 biographer Stephen Dorril explained that most of the names were "light-cover" sources who worked out of embassies or missions posing as diplomats.[45] Dorril argued, "it is well known that rival intelligence networks know who these people are and accept them."[45] MI6 claimed that Tomlinson had originated the list, which was something he had previously threatened to do, although he denied responsibility for it, and MI6 were unable to substantiate their accusation.

FBI's Wray Says He 'Deeply Regrets' the 'Errors and Omissions' FBI Used to Deceive FISA Court Into Greenlighting Spying on Carter Page, Trump Campaign - Promises More Training - BUT No Mention of Punishment or Accountability for Dirty Deep State Criminals
FBI's Wray tells FISA court Bureau 'deeply regrets' failures in Carter Page case
FBI Director Christopher Wray told the federal surveillance court in a letter Friday that he "deeply regrets" the bureau's many errors in the process to obtain surveillance warrants on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
"The FBI has the utmost respect for this Court, and deeply regrets the errors and omissions identified by the OIG," Wray wrote in a letter to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC).
A judge on the FISC ordered the FBI on Dec. 17 to respond by Friday with a roadmap on how the bureau plans to address the problems identified in a Justice Department inspector general's (IG) report regarding applications for warrants to wiretap Page.
The IG report, released on Dec. 9, identified 17 errors and omissions that the FBI made in its Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) applications against Page. The report said FBI agents withheld information that undercut the bureau's suspicion that Page worked as an agent of Russia while he served on the Trump team. Agents also failed to disclose information that raised questions about the credibility and motives of Christopher Steele, a former British spy Democrats hired to investigate President Donald Trump.
The FBI relied heavily on Steele's infamous dossier in the Page FISA applications.
Wray, who took over the FBI more than a month after the fourth and final Page FISA had been approved, said that one remedy he plans to implement will be to use the Page FISA as a case study in training sessions that FBI personnel will be required to undergo.
"FBI personnel will be instructed on the errors and omissions that were made in the Carter Page FISA applications and associated processes," Wray said.
The training will include a test "to confirm that personnel understand the expectations and the materials," as well as certification for FBI employees who have completed the training, he added.
Wray set April 30 as a deadline to complete the training.
Steele asserted in the dossier that Page and others on the Trump campaign were part of a "well-developed conspiracy of cooperation" with the Russian government to influence the 2016 election, according to the IG report. The report said the FBI did not corroborate the allegation but used the claim to assert that Page was a Russian agent.
The special counsel's investigation undercut the idea that Page was a Russian agent. Page, a former Naval officer, was never charged in the investigation. A report of that probe said that investigators found no evidence that anyone on the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to influence the election or acted as an agent of Russia.
Steele's primary source for information in the dossier told FBI agents in January 2017 that the former spy exaggerated and mischaracterized information in the dossier. Steele told FBI agents in October 2016 that a sub-source for the dossier was a "boaster" and "embellisher." FBI agents failed to disclose that information in the FISA applications.
One FBI agent also failed to disclose that the CIA said in August 2016 that Page was an "operational contact" for the agency.

Documents Show Senior Kerry Aide Used Private Email to Send Steele Reports to State Department Colleagues
From The Epoch Times:
WASHINGTON-Eleven pages of State Department documents released on Jan. 7 in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch show that Jonathan Winer, an assistant to then-Secretary of State John Kerry, used his private email address to convey information he received from former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele to top U.S. diplomatic officials.
"I will send them to her [his assistant, Nina Miller] from my non-State email account, not copying myself," Winer said in response to a December 2014 email from Paul Jones, principal deputy assistant secretary for European Affairs.
Jones wanted Winer to use the State Department's secure email system, known informally as the "high side," to transmit reports from Steele's firm, Orbis Business Intelligence.
"Given our ongoing concerns about security of open net, [then-Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland] and I wonder if it would be possible for you to flip Orbis reports to this system before sending them to us. Understand that's yet another step in the process for you. We just want to be sure we don't inadvertently undermine a very good source of info or worse."
Winer, who was then-special coordinator for Libya under Kerry, continued in his response, telling Jones "she will then send them to us. You know who they are coming from, so even high side from here I will just refer to them as 'O Reports,' and strip out any other identifying information as to sourcing."
Winer's use of his private email to conduct official U.S. government business may have violated federal regulations and State Department guidelines.

#9922: Fly the Friendly Skies of.....Tehran? Edition
UK media uses Christopher Steele (of all people!) to push new conspiracy theory about Cambridge Analytica & 2020 election hacking
A fresh Cambridge Analytica leak of more than 100,000 documents exposing its work in 68 countries claims to show that global electoral manipulation is now on an 'industrial scale' and 'is totally out of control'. Is it really?
100K documents leaked
Carole Cadwalladr, a journalist for the Observer, the Guardian's sister paper, whose exposure of Cambridge Analytica's misappropriation of 87 million Facebook profiles brought the company down in 2018, is making these claims after a raft of documents from Brittany Kaiser, an ex-Cambridge Analytica employee turned whistleblower, began to appear on an anonymous Twitter account on New Year's Day.
The leaks from the now-defunct data firm are supposedly 'explosive.' They contain material on elections in Malaysia, Kenya and Brazil. Apparently, they expose the inner workings of the data company and lay bare the global infrastructure of voter manipulation. The documents retrieved from Kaiser's email accounts and hard drives, are only the start of thousands more to come. According to Kaiser, these reveal the true depth of the sinister data firm's operation that go 'way beyond what people think they know about 'the Cambridge Analytica scandal.'
Who needs proof?
Well, if there is one thing we definitely do know about the Cambridge Analytica scandal, it is that there has not been one piece of evidence to show how the firm used Facebook data to manipulate voters in the Trump election or during the Brexit referendum. To this day, no one can show who was targeted. With what ads? In what locations? There is no clear picture what Cambridge Analytica did for Trump. Or what it did in any of the dozens of elections worldwide it claimed to have worked on.

…While they somehow failed to list their exiting and engaging seminar on "Coup d'état planning for fun and profit" on their event website they do list the Forum's focus as the Importance of multilateralism in developing strategies..in lieu of the recent US elections. The coup attempt certainly seems to have involved national actors from the UK, Italy and Australia at least, so truth in advertising after all I suppose;

Lets let the late US Senator McCain explain how this worked;
According to McCain, he didn't recall ever having a previous conversation with Sir Andrew Wood, but may have met him before in passing. Chris Brose, a staff member on the Senate Armed Services Committee, and David Kramer, a former assistant secretary of state with Russian expertise, joined McCain and Wood in a room off the main conference hall.......After discussing Russian election interference for a few minutes, Wood explained why he'd approached McCain in the first place..........He told me he knew a former MI6 officer by the name of Christopher Steele, who had been commissioned to investigate connections between the Trump campaign and Russian agents as well as potentially compromising information about the President-elect that [Russian President Vladimir] Putin allegedly possessed,".
Well isn't this exiting. Indeed MCcain recalls Coups are heady stuff;
"Our impromptu meeting felt charged with a strange intensity," McCain wrote. "No one wise-cracked to lighten the mood. We spoke in lowered voices. The room was dimly lit, and the atmosphere was eerie......McCain ultimately turned the dossier over to Comey in a meeting on December 9, 2016 that he said lasted about 10 minutes."
"John McCain described how he received the Steele dossier that contains the most salacious allegations about Trump and Russia" , Business Insider,John HaltiwangerMar 22, 2019, 2:27 PM
The result of this 007 hand-off was the beginning of two and a half years of completely false allegations aimed at overturning the result of the 2016 election. James Comey now disgraced head of the FBI is facing possible prosecution, along with the former head of the CIA John Brennan and James Clapper former Director of National Intelligence, for using as a basis for FISA warrants the "Steele Dossier". The world now knows without question this was a piece of paid for Democratic National Committee opposition research relying on Russian misinformation, collected partly through Ukraine, promoted by Australia, and delivered by a British intelligence official in a venue provided by Canada. Now that folks is multilateralism at its finest.
The Ukraine connection is interesting given our Ms Freeland's inherited love of fascism.

Christopher Steele Comes Out Of Hiding To Moderate Event Hosted By Actor Colin Firth
Christopher Steele made his first public appearance Monday since the release of a Justice Department report casting doubt on the Trump dossier, moderating a discussion of the documentary "The Great Hack" hosted by actor Colin Firth.
The event was just Steele's second public appearance in the three years since BuzzFeed News published the dossier online. Steele has laid low during the course of the special counsel's investigation and a Justice Department inspector general's (IG) probe that scrutinized the FBI's handling of the dossier.
Carole Cadwalladr, a journalist for The Guardian who has covered Cambridge Analytica, the subject of "The Great Hack," and Ryan Fox, an executive at the firm New Knowledge, also took part in the panel discussion with Steele.
New Knowledge was embroiled in scandal in 2019 after The New York Times reported that the cyber analytics firm posted fake social media content aimed at potential voters in the 2017 Alabama Senate special election.
Steele and New Knowledge worked in 2017 and 2018 with a non-profit group called The Democracy Integrity Project.

Bruce Ohr Covered Up Anti-Trump Crusade To Distribute Steele Dossier
Ohr had effectively become an 'off-the-books' investigator
Mon, 01/06/2020 - 10:20
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/bruce-ohr-covered-crusade-distribute-Steele-dossier
https://archive.is/bwWsN
Still-employed DOJ official Bruce Ohr says he was simply doing his "duty as a citizen" when he distributed the infamous Steele dossier through "numerous meetings, phone calls and emails" while acting "as a link between the FBI and Hillary Clinton forces" to take down Donald Trump, according to the Washington Times.
All this, while he was the #4 official at the Department of Justice - associate deputy attorney general, and in charge of the agency's Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force, titles Ohr was stripped of by Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein after his crusade to take Trump down was uncovered by DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz in November, 2017.
And while Ohr was swapping anti-Trump research with his wife Nellie - a Fusion GPS employee with CIA ties - he hid his efforts between the summer of 2016 and Trump's election from his bosses.
Recall that both Bruce and Nellie Ohr had ongoing communications with Christopher Steele, the dossier's author, even having breakfast with him on July 30, 2016 at the Mayflower Hotel in downtown Washington D.C. - one day before the FBI launched operation Crossfire Hurricane, and one week after Steele had given installments of his Clinton-funded anti-Trump research to the FBI.
Following the Ohrs' breakfast with Steele, Bruce immediately phoned the FBI and met with Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and Lisa Page, a high-ranking FBI lawyer who was banging the head of counterintelligence - Peter Strzok - as they swapped anti-Trump text messages, while investigating Trump (yet no bias). Ohr later met with Strzok as well.
Clearly the lines between Ohr's personal crusade and his position as a top DOJ official had blurred, resulting in his demotions.
"The idea that he actually had some role in this Russia investigation was shocking to me," Rosenstein told the inspector general. "We had been fending off these congressional inquiries. And they were asking for all sorts of stuff, 302s [FBI reports] and things, and ... I had no idea that somebody on my staff had actually been involved in ... an operational way in the investigation."
Nellie Ohr, meanwhile, also appears to have gone on a mysterious personal crusade - becoming a late-life Ham radio enthusiast, which some suspect is how she covertly communicated with others about the Trump-Russia investigation.
According to the Times, Christopher Steele's FBI handler warned Ohr that "Steele could not be trusted."

'Doesn't make any sense': Ratcliffe suspicious of US embassy official who contacted Papadopoulos
The U.S. embassy official who sought out former Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos during the 2016 presidential contest has generated some curiosity among Republican investigators in Congress. Terrence Dudley, a defense attache at the U.S. Embassy in London whom Papadopoulos believes was spying on him, was reportedly interviewed by the federal prosecutor appointed by Attorney General William Barr to examine the origins of the Russia investigation.
Republican Texas Rep. John Ratcliffe, an ally of President Trump and who is a member of the House Intelligence Committee, said this indicates U.S. Attorney John Durham is looking into the Obama intelligence set for evidence of an anti-Trump plot. "That's a sign that John Durham is looking at the fact that this may include Obama administration officials beyond law enforcement - perhaps to include our intelligence community, folks like [former CIA Director] John Brennan," Ratcliffe said Sunday on Fox News's Sunday Morning Futures.
Dudley met Papadopoulos in London multiple times in 2016, according to Politico, and was interviewed by special counsel Robert Mueller's team investigating possible coordination between Russia and the Trump campaign. Papadopoulos alleged Dudley and his colleague Greg Baker, whom Papadopoulos thought were from the Defense Intelligence Agency, were spying on him. Both men have denied the accusation, claiming they made contact only out of personal curiosity. "We approached him from a more fascinated standpoint trying to figure out what his game was," Dudley told the Daily Caller. "Who's funding him to be here [in London]? How does he actually get away with doing that?"
Ratcliffe doesn't buy Dudley's explanation. "Officials at our U.S. embassies overseas going to meet with a campaign official for the Trump campaign - not in their official capacity. But the explanation that they give is, 'Just out of personal curiosity.' It's not their job, but beyond that, it doesn't make any sense," he said Sunday. The FBI's counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign began in late July 2016 after Papadopoulos bragged to an Australian diplomat that he heard the Russians had damaging information on Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. An academic named Stefan Halper, who is reportedly an FBI informant, and an undercover FBI agent posing as his assistant with the name Azra Turk also met with Papadopoulos.
Papadopoulos served 12 days in federal prison for lying to FBI investigators about his contact with people linked to Russia during the 2016 campaign. The FBI's counterintelligence investigation, dubbed "Crossfire Hurricane," was wrapped into Mueller's investigation, which was unable to establish a criminal conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin. In an audit released last month, Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said he found no evidence that the genesis of the Russia inquiry was motivated by political bias as Trump and his allies have alleged. But both Barr and Durham publicly disagreed with that conclusion.
As part of his inquiry that has been criticized by Democrats as a ploy to attack Trump's political enemies, Durham is investigating what Brennan told former FBI Director James Comey and other officials about an anti-Trump dossier, compiled by British ex-spy Christopher Steele, which made a series of accusations about Trump and his associates and their ties to Russia. Ratcliffe said he is confident Durham will provide the American people "a better picture of, really, how the Democratic administration before this one targeted President Trump and was aided by Democrats who paid for Russian disinformation, to try and frame this president before he ever got into office."

Fresh Cambridge Analytica leak 'shows global manipulation is out of control'
An explosive leak of tens of thousands of documents from the defunct data firm Cambridge Analytica is set to expose the inner workings of the company that collapsed after the Observer revealed it had misappropriated 87 million Facebook profiles.
More than 100,000 documents relating to work in 68 countries that will lay bare the global infrastructure of an operation used to manipulate voters on "an industrial scale" is set to be released over the next months.
It comes as Christopher Steele, the ex-head of MI6's Russia desk and the intelligence expert behind the so-called "Steele dossier" into Trump's relationship with Russia, said that while the company had closed down, the failure to properly punish bad actors meant that the prospects for manipulation of the US election this year were even worse.
The release of documents began on New Year's Day on an anonymous Twitter account, @HindsightFiles, with links to material on elections in Malaysia, Kenya and Brazil. The documents were revealed to have come from Brittany Kaiser, an ex-Cambridge Analytica employee turned whistleblower, and to be the same ones subpoeaned by Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
Kaiser, who starred in the Oscar-shortlisted Netflix documentary The Great Hack, decided to go public after last month's election in Britain. "It's so abundantly clear our electoral systems are wide open to abuse," she said. "I'm very fearful about what is going to happen in the US election later this year, and I think one of the few ways of protecting ourselves is to get as much information out there as possible."

Washington Post vs. the Steele Dossier
In a compelling, if incomplete, account of some of the worst media actors in the Russian collusion hoax, the Washington Post neglects its own complicity.
In the thick catalog of media players responsible for promoting the phony Russia collusion storyline, the Washington Post occupies a marquee spot. The Post arguably inflicted the most damage on the first few months of Donald Trump's presidency by pushing the concocted collusion drama even before Inauguration Day.
The Post first published illegally leaked classified information about former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn in early 2017; articles detailing Flynn's intercepted conversations with the Russian ambassador led to Flynn's ouster in February 2017.
In April 2017, the Post first revealed the foreign intelligence surveillance warrant on Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page. Several unnamed government officials leaked the explosive news that a former Trump campaign advisor was under government surveillance for his suspected ties to the Kremlin. The purpose of the report was to legitimize the rapidly unfolding narrative that the Trump campaign had colluded with the Russians to hijack the 2016 election.
Since then, thousands of articles, columns, and editorials bolstering the hoax have dominated the paper's website. In fact, Post reporters and editors met with dossier author Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson months before Election Day as they attempted to plant damaging stories about Team Trump's canoodling with Russians.
After Steele's name became public in early 2017, the Post routinely portrayed Steele as a trustworthy "former British intelligence officer" just trying to protect Americans from the Putin puppet running for president.
"While Trump has derided the dossier as 'fake news' compiled by his political opponents, the FBI's arrangement with Steele shows that the bureau considered him credible and found his information, while unproved, to be worthy of further investigation," Post reporters Tom Hamburger and Rosalind Helderman assured readers in February 2017.
(According to Fusion's new book, Simpson met with Hamburger, a friend and former colleague, in Philadelphia during the July 2016 Democratic National Convention to discuss Steele's dossier, including the preposterous "golden showers" accusation. "Hamburger reacted with shock," the Fusion authors wrote. Simpson and Hamburger met again in September 2016 when Fusion organized its pre-election media blitz between reporters and Steele.)
Motes and Beams
The Post, like the rest of the legacy media attempting to bury its collective complicity in perpetrating this massive fraud on the American people, has refused to own up to its animating role in the scheme. So, it's a little rich that the same paper now is calling out other reporters and news organizations for hyping the dossier.
But considering no other outlet has performed an autopsy on the collusion corpse, the Post's critique of selected coverage of the most famous dossier in American political history is a welcome condemnation, if late and lacking in self-reflection.

Article from 3/22/19 I STRONGLY SUGGEST ALL ANONS READ!
Dossier-Tied Firm Pitches Reporters Daily on 'Collusion'
TDIP led by Daniel J. Jones,former FBI investigator,Clinton admin vol & top staffer to Sen Feinstein. It employs the key opposition-research figures behind the salacious,unverified dossier:Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson & ex-British intel officer Christopher Steele. Its financial backers include the actor/director Rob Reiner & billionaire activist George Soros.
TDIP(The Democracy Integrity Project)is THE center of all the ops against POTUS, including Key Dem operatives, private investigators, who tried to derail Trump w/their operation since his election with a multimillion-dollar stealth campaign to persuade major media outlets & lawmakers the president should be impeached.
Among other activities,it pumps out daily"research" briefings to prominent Washington journalists & congressional staffers,to keep their narrative alive,running an elaborate media-influence operation that includes driving & shaping daily coverage. The group also feed info to FBI & congressional investigators, then tells reporters authorities are investigating those leads. The tactic adds credibility to TDIP's pitches, luring big media outlets to bite on stories, mirroring strategies federal authorities deployed to secure FISA warrants to spy on Trump.
Five days a week, TDIP emails a newsletter to influential Dems & prominent Beltway journalists under the heading "TDIP Research"which summarizes the latest "collusion" news, and offers "points of interest" to inspire fresh negative stories regarding President Trump. Recipients of the TDIP reports include staffers at New York Times & Washington Post & investigative reporters at BuzzFeed,ProPublica & McClatchy,as well as news producers at CNN & MSNBC. Democratic aides on Capitol Hill also subscribe to the newsletter.
FBI veterans say it's strange for an ex-FBI employee such as Jones to privately run a parallel counterintel investigation on any subject,least of all on the president. Longtime observers of the Washington political scene are curious how Jones has for years been able to escape serious scrutiny while running a political influence op that works closely with nat'l media,federal law enforcement & congressional investigators. With access to a multimillion-dollar war chest,they say he could continue to push anti-Trump narrative long past 2020 presidential election

U.K. Spy Steele Claims John McCain Aide Leaked 'Pee' Dossier to BuzzFeed
The blame starts, let's start with the dead guy
Anti-Trump dossier author Christopher Steele testified that he was "absolutely flabbergasted" when BuzzFeed published the dossier after an advisor to late Senator John McCain shared the controversial document with the media outlet purportedly against Steele's wishes.
-That tidbit was buried in a footnote on page 176 of the Justice Department's recently released 476-page Inspector General (IG) report on the FBI's Russia collusion investigation. Steele made the remarks about Buzzfeed and the McCain staff member during an interview with the IG.
-The relevant footnote relates:
-Steele testified in foreign litigation that he did not provide his reports to journalists or media organizations and did not authorize anyone to share them. According to the McCain Institute staff member's testimony in the same litigation, Steele requested that the staff member meet with BuzzFeed, and that Steele neither requested nor prohibited the staff member from sharing the reports with BuzzFeed. Additionally, the staff member testified that Steele was aware that the staff member was furnishing Steele's reports to The Washington Post.
-Steele told the OIG that he trusted the staff member to handle his reports discretely and that the staff member betrayed that trust. Steele explained that the staff member had spent his career handling sensitive intelligence. Steele also said he understood from a former Ambassador that Senator McCain requested that Steele trust the staff member. Steele said he was "absolutely flabbergasted" when BuzzFeed published his election reports.
-The unnamed McCain staff member is known to be David J. Kramer.
-Kramer revealed in previous testimony that he held a meeting about the dossier with a reporter from BuzzFeed News, who he says snapped photos of the controversial document without Kramer's permission when he left the room to go to the bathroom. That meeting was held at the McCain Institute office in Washington, Kramer stated.
-BuzzFeed published the Christopher Steele dossier on January 10, 2017, setting off a firestorm of news media coverage about the document.
-The Washington Post reported last February that Kramer received the dossier directly from Fusion GPS after McCain expressed interest in it.
-Fusion GPS was paid for its anti-Trump work by Trump's primary political opponents, namely Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) via the Perkins Coie law firm.
-As Breitbart News reported last week, the IG report also reveals that McCain provided disgraced former FBI chief James Comey with five separate reports from Steele that the FBI didn't previously possess related to unsubstantiated allegations of collusion between Russia and President Trump's 2016 campaign.
-There have long been questions about why it was necessary for McCain to pass Steele's anti-Trump dossier to Comey on December 9, 2016, several weeks after the November 2016 presidential election. By then, Steele had already met numerous times with FBI agents to provide them with his controversial reports. Steele, however, was terminated as an FBI source in the fall of 2016 because he spoke to the news media.
-The IG report discloses that McCain gave five new Steele reports to Comey that the FBI did not previously possess, showing that McCain served as a conduit for Steele's information to reach the FBI after the British ex-spy was formally cut off as an FBI source.
-It is not clear whether McCain knew at the time that Steele had previously been terminated as an FBI source.

Q Research General #9834: A New Year, A New Day! What's Good Anons?!!! Edition
The Dangers of Elite Groupthink
The Washington Post recently published a surprising indictment of MSNBC host, Stanford graduate and Rhodes scholar Rachel Maddow.
Post media critic Erik Wemple wrote that Maddow deliberately misled her audience by claiming the now-discredited Steele dossier was largely verifiable – even at a time when there was plenty of evidence that it was mostly bogus.
At the very time Maddow was reassuring viewers that Christopher Steele was believable, populist talk radio and the much-criticized Fox News Channel were insisting that most of Steele's allegations simply could not be true. Maddow was wrong. Her less degreed critics proved to be right.
In 2018, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), and the committee's then-ranking minority member, Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), each issued contrasting reports of the committee's investigation into allegations of collusion between Russia and Donald Trump's campaign team and the misbehavior of federal agencies.
Schiff's memo was widely praised by the media. Nunes' report was condemned as rank and partisan.
Many in the media went further. They contrasted Harvard Law graduate Schiff with rural central Californian Nunes to help explain why the clever Schiff got to the bottom of collusion and the "former dairy farmer" Nunes was "way over his head" and had "no idea what's going on."
Recently, the nonpartisan inspector general of the Department of Justice, Michael Horowitz, found widespread wrongdoing at the DOJ and FBI. He confirmed the key findings in the Nunes memo about the Steele dossier and its pernicious role in the FISA application seeking a warrant against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
In contrast, much of what the once-praised Schiff had claimed to be true was proven wrong by Horowitz – from Schiff's insistence that the FBI verified the Steele dossier to his assertion that the Department of Justice did not rely chiefly on the dossier for its warrant application.
When special counsel Robert Mueller formed an investigatory team, he stocked it with young, progressive Washington insiders, many with blue-chip degrees and resumes.
The media swooned. Washington journalists became giddy over the prospect of a "dream team" of such "all-stars" who would demolish the supposedly far less impressively credentialed Trump legal team.
We were assured by a snobbish Vox that "Special counsel Robert Mueller's legal team is full of pros. Trump's team makes typos."
Yet after 22 months and $32 million worth of investigation, Mueller's team found no Russian collusion and no evidence of actionable Trump obstruction during the investigation of that non-crime. All the constant media reports that "bombshell" Mueller team disclosures were imminent and that the "walls are closing in" on Trump proved false.
Mueller himself testified before Congress, only to appear befuddled and almost clueless at times about his own investigation. Many of his supposedly brightest all-stars, such as Lisa Page, Peter Strzok and Kevin Clinesmith, had to leave his dream team due to unethical behavior.

Q Research General #9829: One Ball Drop Down! 3 More To Go!! Edition
We Were Warned About The Deep State, But Refused To Listen
Many of the critical tools employed in the coup to paint Donald Trump as a tool of the Russians and to manufacture a pretext for removing him from office, were created more than twenty years ago. I am talking about the surveillance state that the American electorate has ignorantly accepted as necessary in order to keep us safe from terrorists.
Despite previous warning from whistleblowers like Russ Tice, Bill Binney, Ed Loomis and Kird Wiebe, no action to rein in the surveillance monster was taken until Edward Snowden absconded with the documents exposing the vast amount spying that the U.S. Government is doing to its own citizens. But even those weak efforts to supposedly rein in the NSA proved to be nothing more than mere window dressing. The spying got worse. Just ask Donald Trump and the members of his campaign that were targeted first by the CIA and NSA and then by the FBI. Fundamental civil rights were trampled.
The real irony in all of this is that Barack Obama, as President, took credit for helping revise the laws in order to prevent the spying exposed by Edward Snowden. But under the Obama Administration, spying on political opponents–both real and perceived–escalated. We know for a fact that journalists, such as James Rosen and Sheryl Atkinson, were targets and their communications and computers attacked by the U.S. Government. We know, thanks to a memo released by Judge Rosemary Collyer, that "FBI consultants" were making illegal searches of NSA material using the names of Donald Trump, his family and members of his campaign staff.
Some of this NSA material came courtesy of the Brits and their collection on U.S. targets. Some of this material came from the NSA's own collection and storage of all electronic communications and was obtained using a nifty NSA tool called XKEYSCORE Listen to Ed Snowden's description. Also, take time to appreciate the irony that CNN and other journalists were actually trying to report real news. Now they are full blown apologists for the abuse of the intelligence collection tools. Six years ago, former NSA Technical Director for Military and Geopolitical Issues, Bill Binney, and Russ Tice, a former NSA analyst, appeared on the PBS News Hour. Once again, they make very clear the enormous nature to the threat to our civil liberties.
Too bad Donald Trump did not listen to their warning. Given the robust, wide ranging ability of the NSA to probe all communications by any person in the United States, it is remarkable that no real dirt on Donald Trump was ever uncovered. Had such information existed, it would be in the NSA's storage vaults in Utah and crooked CIA analysts under Brennan's direction would have found it and used it. But that did not happed. The best the intel folks could fabricate were the salacious claims attributed to reports ostensibly created by former British spy, Christopher Steele. Turns out that the titillating account that Trump hired hookers to perform coprophilia (could of been worse, coprophagia) was nothing more than idle bar talk. What has happened to Donald Trump can happen to any of us. It is time to take this threat seriously and put the intel agencies back into a properly monitored corral. Otherwise, we will lose this Republic.

The Carter Page FISA: A timeline
by Jerry Dunleavy
June 16, 2019 12:00 AM
The October 2016 FISA application and January 2017 FISA renewal were both approved by then-FBI Director James Comey and Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates.
Former FBI Deputy General Counsel Trisha Anderson testified to the House Judiciary and Oversight committees in August 2018 about the "unusual way" that the first FISA request was handled, with approval coming from Yates and then-Deputy Director of the FBI Andrew McCabe before it reached her desk, contradicting the normal path that the FISA applications take and leading her to not feel the need to second-guess her higher-ups.
The April 2017 FISA renewal was approved by Comey and by Dana Boente. Boente is the only signatory still remaining in active government service, working as the Trump administration's top lawyer at the FBI starting in January 2018.
The June 2017 FISA renewal was approved by McCabe and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.
The 412 pages of redacted FISA documents released in 2018 show that the DOJ and FBI made extensive use of an unverified dossier compiled by British ex-spy Christopher Steele which made a series of allegations regarding Trump and Russia. Steele put his research together in 2016 at the behest of Fusion GPS, which had been hired by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee through the Perkins Coie law firm. Steele receiving funding from a Democratic presidential campaign was not revealed to the FISA Court.
The FISA court, for its part, approved all four applications and renewals, and the four judges involved were appointed by Republicans.

(Early 2016) - (Seth Rich) transferred DNC emails & attachments to (Gavin McFadyen)
(Newsweek - May 17, 2017)
(excerpt)
Citing that source, Fox News said that "an FBI forensic report of Rich's computer-generated within 96 hours after Rich's murder-showed that he made contact with WikiLeaks through Gavin MacFadyen," whom The New York Times described in an obituary as a mentor to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and as director of WikiLeaks. The source said that sometime before May 21, 2016, Rich had transferred 44,053 emails and 17,761 attachments belonging to DNC leaders dating from January 2015 to late May 2016. MacFadyen, the apparent recipient, died of lung cancer last October.

(Nov 2016 - after Trump Win) - (Christopher Steele) ref. "The Dossier" briefs (Charles Farr) who briefs (Andrew Parker - Dir. MI5) & (Alex Younger - Dir. MI6)
(Daily Caller - May 22, 2019)
(article excerpt)
The trigger for Nunes's letter was a report published in the British press Sunday that Christopher Steele, a former MI6 officer, briefed high-level British government officials about his investigation into possible ties between Trump and the Russian government.
The U.K. Telegraph reported that a week after Trump's election win, Steele briefed Sir Charles Farr, who then chaired Britain's Joint Intelligence Committee, about his investigation of Trump's possible ties to Russia.
Farr passed the information to other high-level British intelligence officials, including MI5 director Andrew Parker and MI6 director Alex Younger. According to the Telegraph, the prime minister was not briefed on the information.
(Jan 15, 2017) - (Alex Younger - MI6 Director)
(Independent UK)
Head of MI6 used information from Trump dossier in first public speech

- (Christopher Steele) (MI6) - [Dossier Dude]
- (Charles Farr) (MI6) (lover of Fiona) (Dossier Middleman) = "Illness" or [1_7]?
- (Fiona Hill) (Theresa May aide) (lover of Charles) = Impeachment Witness
- (Andrew Parker) (MI5 Director) (Briefed on Dossier 2016) = Stepping Down
- (Alex Younger) (MI6 Director) (Briefed on Dossier 2016) = Stepping Down

[Anon analysis of Q post 436]
1. This is just one of many investigations headed up by Jeff Sessions. (A couple dozen or so?)
2. The Democratic National committee was breached
3. By a DNC staffer named Seth Rich
4. Who sent files to Wikileaks
5. Obama, Clapper, along with the CIA and FBI became aware
6. (Along with a dozen others who will be implicated in all this)
7. Google funded a cybersecurity company called Crowdstrike, perhaps with CIA assistance
8. Which was the tool used by Clapper/Brennan to find the leaker
9. Seth Rich gets murdered by 2 MS13 members, who themselves are killed. (This story alone would make for an unbelievable movie.)
10. Debbie Wasserman Schultz shuts down the investigation into the murder of Seth Rich
11. FBI and Department Of Justice help to cover it up.
12. With funding from the Saudi's, Soros, et al.
13. To combat this whole escapade, Obama, Hillary, Loretta Lynch, James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strozok conspired to create the fake Russian Dossier with help from Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Adam Schiff, and a host of others. (This is where that infamous "insurance" email comes in.)
14. They reach out to British Intelligence to get Russian dirt.
15. Paid for by Hillary's campaign & DNC through Fusion GPS to Christopher Steele. (Which will implicate a whole host of others.)
16. John Podesta gives the info to Eric Holder (with a bunch of others in this process as well)
17. This allows Obama, Comey and Lynch to obtain a FISA warrant on Trump and Co. (Implicating FISA judges) and Obama begins to get daily briefings
18. John McCain shops the Dossier around to media outlets they already have in their pocket, and Buzzfeed is the first to publish which sets off the Russian narrative.
19. Which they plan to use to keep Trump out of office, or remove him if he wins.

Who were these contractors? FusionGPS and Crowdstrike are known.
"Accepting the FBI was utilizing Fusion-GPS as a contractor, there is now an inherent clarity in the relationship between: FBI agent Peter Strzok, Fusion-GPS Glenn Simpson, and 'Russian Dossier' author Christopher Steele. They are all on the same team."
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2018/01/11/the-doj-and-fbi-worked-with-fusion-gps-on-operation-trump/
Here's an article detailing Crowdstrikes background and access
"The OMB found 71 out of 96 federal agencies have computer information security programs that were either "at risk" or at "high risk". Only 25 agencies were reported to be managing risk using recommended tools and policies.
The Office of Management and Budget is part of the Executive Office of President Donald J. Trump.
https://fcw.com/articles/2018/05/29/cyber-omb-risk-report.aspx?s=fcwdaily_300518
Yet as an FBI contractor, CrowdStrike still has top secret clearance.
According to a FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) ruling, CrowdStrike has "unrestricted illegal access" to the nation's surveillance data. "
Here's an article discussing 704 and 705 abuses as well
https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20170514/10071637362/inspector-generals-report-shows-section-702-isnt-only-thing-being-abused-nsa.shtml
*note 702 upstream
"At the time of our review, the Agency could not reliably identify queries performed using selectors associated with FAA 704 and 705(b) targets because the SIGINT databases did not uniformly send records in the correct format to [REDACTED] (NSA's SIGINT auditing and logging system).
[…]
We identified [REDACTED] queries that were not compliant with the FAA 704 and 705(b) targeting and minimization procedures. [LONG REDACTION] We identified another [REDACTED] queries that were performed outside the targeting authorization periods in E.O. 12333 data, which is prohibited by the E.O. 12333 minimization procedures. We also identified [REDACTED] queries performed using USP slectors in FAA 702 upstream data, which is prohibited by the FAA 702 minimization procedures."
Now let's look at this part of Q post 3764
Does Crowdstrike possess 'gov_capablity' to trace 'break-in' route(s)?
Does Crowdstrike possess 'gov_capability' re: foreign intercepts?
Possible to layer/insert code [Crowdstrike] to designate intruder [intended target]?
NSA data_bridge DNC-Crowdstrike [bulk data collection]
Matters of National Security [Highest Levels].
FISA is only the beginning.
The hole is DEEP.
*Crowdstrike (Goog/C_A/Warburg Pincus) has the capabilities (exposed in vault 7) to do all these things above.

WaPo Columnist Rips Rachel Maddow For Hyping Steele Dossier
A columnist for The Washington Post blasted Rachel Maddow for her coverage of the infamous Steele dossier on Thursday, saying that the MSNBC host engaged in "a pattern of misleading and dishonest asymmetry" in her reporting on the salacious document in the nearly three years since its publication.
"As part of her Russianist phase, Maddow became a clearinghouse for news increments regarding the dossier," writes Post media columnist Eric Wemple in his fifth installment in a series reviewing the media's coverage of Steele's dossier.
Wemple took on the project in the wake of the Justice Department inspector general's (IG) report which undercut key aspects of the dossier, authored by former British spy Christopher Steele.
According to the IG report, the FBI was unable to corroborate any of Steele's allegations of collusion involving the Trump campaign. Steele's primary source for the dossier also disputed key allegations in the document. Steele told FBI agents in October 2016 that one of the main sub-sources for the dossier was a "boaster" and "embellisher," the report further stated.
Wemple laid out a timeline of Maddow's coverage of the dossier, noting that she tended to hype developments that cut in favor of Steele's reporting, while ignoring information that undermined the ex-spy.
"When small bits of news arose in favor of the dossier, the franchise MSNBC host pumped air into them," wrote Wemple. "At least some of her many fans surely came away from her broadcasts thinking the dossier was a serious piece of investigative research, not the flimflam, quick-twitch game of telephone outlined in the Horowitz report."
"She seemed to be rooting for the document," he noted.
According to Wemple, Maddow touted reports from other news outlets that claimed parts of the dossier were corroborated. On May 3, 2017, she said on her show that "more and more" aspects of the dossier had been "independently corroborated."
On Oct. 5, 2017, she said that "a lot" of the claims in the dossier were "dead to rights." On April 16, 2018, she hyped a story published by McClatchy that the special counsel's team had received evidence backing up the dossier's allegation that former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen visited Prague in August 2016 to meet Kremlin operatives. The IG report said that the allegation was "not true."
Maddow appeared so convinced of the dossier's accuracy that she aired an hour-long special report on Dec. 8, 2017 hyping Steele's reporting.

Report: FISA Court Has Not Ordered FBI to Check FISA Applications Beyond One Lawyer
The court that granted the FBI surveillance warrants on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page has only ordered that the FBI review all warrant applications related to one FBI attorney and not all FBI agents involved in misconduct, according to a report.
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) earlier this month ordered the FBI to re-verify all previous Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant applications involving Kevin Clinesmith, the FBI attorney who falsified evidence in the FBI's efforts to seek a renewed surveillance warrant against Page.
But according to a report by Fox News's Gregg Re, the FISC did not order the FBI to recheck warrant applications involving other officials who made significant omissions and errors in warrant applications to surveil Page.
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz found that Clinesmith had doctored an email that said Page was a source for the CIA to say that Page was "not" a source for the CIA.
However, Horowitz found many more examples of what the FISC itself has called "misconduct."
In one example cited by Fox News, Horowitz found that an FBI supervisory special agent (SSA) responsible for ensuring that the bureau's "Woods Procedures" were followed in this case - in that all factual assertions be independently verified and information contradicting those assertions be presented to the court - did not follow those procedures.
The SSA created a digital sub-file where reports by Christopher Steele, ex-British spy working for Fusion GPS, would be uploaded. Those reports were uncorroborated yet used to support the argument that Page was a foreign agent.
The SSA also suspected that Steele was a source for a news report that was included in warrant applications on Page, but he downplayed it in FISA applications. The SSA was also told by a State Department official that Steele was wrong about a claim but that information was not put in any FISA applications.
The SSA also failed to put in other information that was exculpatory for Page, such as Page denying to an FBI confidential human source (CHS) that he knew Russian officials Igor Sechin and Igor Divyekin, which Steele had alleged.
The SSA was also aware that Steele had provided his reports to the State Department, but the FISC was told that Steele "only provided this information to the business associate and the FBI."
Despite this, the FISC's Presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer only ordered the FBI to identify and review all matters that involved the participation of Clinesmith, and advise whether his conduct has been "referred to the appropriate bar association(s) for investigation or possible disciplinary action," according to Fox News.

IG Report Reveals Steele Funneled Claims Through John McCain After FBI Dropped Him
Late Senator John McCain provided disgraced former FBI chief James Comey with five separate reports from Christopher Steele that the FBI didn't previously possess related to unsubstantiated allegations of collusion between Russia and President Trump's 2016 campaign, the Justice Department's recent Inspector General report revealed.
There have long been questions about why it was necessary for McCain to pass Steele's anti-Trump dossier to Comey on December 9, 2016, several weeks after the November 2016 presidential election. By then, Steele had already met numerous times with FBI agents to provide them with his controversial reports. Steele, however, was terminated as an FBI source in the fall of 2016 because he spoke to the news media.
The IG report discloses that McCain gave five new Steele reports to Comey that the FBI did not previously possess, showing that McCain served as a conduit for Steele's information to reach the FBI even after the British ex-spy was formally cut off as an FBI source.

IG Report Reveals Steele Funneled Claims Through John McCain After FBI Dropped Him
Late Senator John McCain provided disgraced former FBI chief James Comey with five separate reports from Christopher Steele that the FBI didn't previously possess related to unsubstantiated allegations of collusion between Russia and President Trump's 2016 campaign, the Justice Department's recent Inspector General report revealed.
There have long been questions about why it was necessary for McCain to pass Steele's anti-Trump dossier to Comey on December 9, 2016, several weeks after the November 2016 presidential election. By then, Steele had already met numerous times with FBI agents to provide them with his controversial reports. Steele, however, was terminated as an FBI source in the fall of 2016 because he spoke to the news media.
The IG report discloses that McCain gave five new Steele reports to Comey that the FBI did not previously possess, showing that McCain served as a conduit for Steele's information to reach the FBI even after the British ex-spy was formally cut off as an FBI source.
It is not clear whether McCain knew at the time that Steele had previously been terminated as an FBI source.
The IG report also verifies that a McCain aid obtained the Steele reports directly from Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson, meaning that when McCain transferred the anti-Trump charges to Comey he had to have known that the material originated with a firm that specializes in controversial opposition tactics.
Fusion GPS was paid for its anti-Trump work by Trump's primary political opponents, namely Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) via the Perkins Coie law firm.
States the IG report:
Several weeks later, on December 9, 2016, Senator John McCain provided Corney with a collection of 16 Steele election reports, 5 of which Steele had not given the FBI. McCain had obtained these reports from a staff member at the McCain Institute. The McCain Institute staff member had met with Steele and later acquired the reports from Simpson.
The unnamed McCain staff member is known to be David J. Kramer, who also infamously provided BuzzFeed with the Steele dossier.
BuzzFeed published Steele's full dossier on January 10, 2017 setting off a firestorm of news media coverage about the document.
Prior to his death, McCain admitted to personally handing the dossier to Comey but he refused repeated requests for comment about whether he had a role in providing the dossier to BuzzFeed, including numerous inquiries sent to his office by this reporter.
In his book published last year, McCain maintained he had an "obligation" to pass the dossier charges against Trump to Comey and he would even do it again. "Anyone who doesn't like it can go to hell," McCain exclaimed.

Q Research General #9754: Crossing the Delaware Edition
There's no way Chief Justice Roberts should be allowed to preside over an impeachment trial against POTUS.
Chief Justice Roberts is responsible for all 11 FISA court Judges, who allowed illegal spy ring on Trump
In another unusual twist, the 11 judges are appointed exclusively by the Chief Justice of the United States, without any supplemental confirmation from the other two branches of government.
👉John Roberts has named every member of the current court, as a well as a separate three-judge panel to hear appeals of FISC orders, known as the Court of Review.
The Supreme Court would theoretically have the power to hear any subsequent challenges, but the justices never have– at least not that we know. But the Electronic Privacy Information Center last week directly asked the high court to review the NSA collection of telephone communication data. Roberts himself expressed some reservations about this judicial concept – also known by the acronym FISA – during his 2005 confirmation, one of the few times a federal judge has talked publicly about that court.
👉Just so everyone knows Chief Justice Roberts has been the ruling factor in blocking Trump's restrictions on asylum in the Supreme Court today, so I've decided to make some connections.
Guess what I found?
The revealing information through some quick research reveals the fact that Justice Roberts named every single FISA judge who currently sits on the FISA court bench. This basically means that Justice Roberts in a major way is responsible for the illegal use of the FISA court by Obama to spy on President Trump and those close to the President, as Justice Roberts named all 11 FISA Court Judges who sit on the FISA court bench.
? 👉The FISA court pretty much allowed Obama's illegal spy ring on President Trump with Foreign help, where Hillary started it with hiring Christopher Steele to write up the unverified report by Fusion GPS…Which was used illegally because unverified reports violate the FBI criminal statues to get a warrant through the FISA system.
So really in a big way Chief Justice Roberts who has been the ruling factor in blocking Trump's asylum restrictions, is pretty much responsible for the illegal use of FISA on President Trump.

Not Soros, Khodorkovsky.
https://themarketswork.com/2018/09/05/mikhail-khodorkovsky-the-magnitsky-act-the-Steele-dossier/
Mikhail Khodorkovsky is the former head of Russian oil giant Yukos. Famously imprisoned by Putin in 2003 on fraud charges, Khodorkovsky appeared a sympathetic figure-portrayed as a victim of Putin retaliation. He was pardoned in 2013 and now resides in London. At the height of his power, Khodorkovsky was estimated to have a net worth in excess of $15 billion.
Khodorkovsky operates a project he has dubbed Dossier Center, which receives anonymous leaks to share with journalists. Unlike WikiLeaks, Khodorkovsky's focus is more specific:
"Our ambition is not simply to expose information in general, but to use material relating to Putin's circle and his allies so that they can be put on trial in Russia."
Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer who met with Trump Jr. during the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting was recently the subject of leaks from the Dossier Project. Interestingly, the Veselnitskaya leaks contained no information regarding the Trump Tower meeting, lending a certain level of credence to Veselnitskaya's contention that both parties at the meeting quickly realized it was a waste of time all around. Nor was there any information contained in the leaks regarding Christopher Steele or his dossier.
Khodorkovsky, along with Browder, lobbied heavily for passage of the Magnitsky Act. Khodorkovsky did so through his Corbiere Trust, which handles Khodorkovsky's remaining fortune. It also lobbied for passage of Senate Resolution 322, which provided express support for Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Platon Lebedev. The Corbiere Trust is one of APCO Worldwide's largest clients. APCO lobbied on behalf of the now-defunct Clinton Global Initiative and was involved, at least tangentially, in the Uranium One transaction as noted by the Hill:
"APCO was paid $3 million in 2010 and 2011 to work for Rosatom, Russia's state-owned nuclear company. Rosatom paid APCO to lobby the State Department and other federal agencies on behalf of its Tenex subsidiary, which sought to increase its commercial uranium sales in the United States."
At this point it remains unknown if Khodorkovsky or Browder have involvement, direct or otherwise, in the production of the Steele Dossier. A common link running through the participants is Jonathan Winer, who has known Steele for years. Winer lobbied on behalf of Khodorkovsky and the Corbiere Trust. Given Khodorkovsky's focus on passage of the Magnitsky Act, a link to Browder is a short hop at best.
Winer had direct involvement in the dissemination of the Steele Dossier. In September of 2016, Winer met with Steele and passed a copy of the Dossier along to Victoria Nuland at the State department.

Donald Trump Rips 'Bunch of Dirty Cops' for Investigating Campaign
President Donald Trump ripped top prosecutors and FBI officials like James Comey on Tuesday for spying on his campaign and prosecuting campaign operative Roger Stone and his former National Security Advisor Gen. Michael Flynn.
"Now we found out that they are a bunch of dirty cops and paid for by the DNC and paid for by Hillary Clinton in many cases," Trump said.
Stone was convicted of making false statements to Congress, obstruction of justice, and witness tampering, and Flynn plead guilty to lying to the FBI. Both men were swept up in the Russia investigation pursued by the FBI and the Justice Department and have yet to be sentenced.
The president referred to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants to surveil his campaign advisors using the phony dossier created for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) from Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS.
"These were dirty people. These were bad people. These were evil people," Trump said, predicting that removing them from office would be one of his "greatest achievements" as president of the United States.
"We have no place in our country for people like that," he added.
Trump spoke to reporters after conducting a videoconference call with members of the United States military on Christmas Eve.
Trump was asked by reporters about whether he would pardon political operative Roger Stone, an early informal advisor to Trump prior to his presidential campaign.
"I hadn't thought of it," Trump said, but said that Stone's prosecution was unfair but repeated that he was not part of his campaign.
"I've known Roger over the years. He's a nice guy. A lot of people like him," Trump said. "He got hit very hard, as did Gen. Flynn and as did a lot of other people."
Trump referred to the entire investigation as a massive hoax and said what happened to Flynn and Stone was "very unfair."

FISA Court Refuses Review Of FBI Deception
is week, Presiding Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) Judge Rosemary Collyer, released two stern Orders taking the FBI to task for its repeated failures, omissions, and misrepresentations in its application and subsequent renewals to surveil Carter Page.
And while one FBI employee has received a criminal referral for doctoring evidence in the scheme to defraud the court, key players with oversight responsibilities - under penalty of perjury - have been given a pass.
Judge Collyer's December 17, 2019 Order, written after the publication of Inspector General Michael Horowitz's long-awaited report on FISA abuse, emphasized the role the FBI plays when it makes its assessment on whether probable cause exists to a warrant. In particular, FISC requires the FBI agent swearing to the application fully and accurately provide "information in its possession that is material to whether probable cause exists."
She noted that the IG Report revealed "troubling instances in which FBI personnel provided information to NSD which was unsupported or contradicted by information in their possession." Judge Collyer also expressed concerns about the FBI Office of General Counsel attorney, reported to have been Kevin Clinesmith, who altered evidence to mislead about Carter Page acting as a source for the CIA.
That Order required:
(1) The government to inform the Court in a sworn written submission of what it has done, and plans to do, to ensure that the statement of facts in each FBI application accurately and completely reflects information possessed by the FBI that is material to any issue presented by the application. (A January 10, 2020 deadline was given for this submission and left the government with room to maneuver if it needed more time.)
On December 20, FISC released Judge Collyer's mostly unredacted December 5, 2019 Order to the United States. This was apparently prepared in response to letters filed with FISC by the government relating to the issues found with the Carter Page application and renewals during the course of the Inspector General's investigation. She ordered the United States inform FISC by writing of the following:
(1) Identify all other matters currently or previously before this Court that involved the participation of the FBI OGC [Clinesmith] attorney whose conduct was described in the Preliminary Letter and Supplemental Letter;
(2) Describe any steps taken or to be taken by the Department of Justice or FBI to verify that the United States' submissions in those matters completely and fully described the material facts and circumstances; and
(3) Advise whether the conduct of the FBI OGC [Clinesmith] attorney who has been referred to the appropriate bar association(s) for investigation or possible disciplinary action.
This is a serious Court that deals with serious matters of national security and counterintelligence. The secret nature of FISC requires the United States to be in strict compliance with all certification and verification requirements. It's a matter of trust. As Judge Collyer observed: "FISC expects the government to comply with its heightened duty of candor in ex parte proceedings at all times. Candor is fundamental to the Court's effective operation."
This trust was broken by the FBI agents and officials whose factual assertions to FISC were inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, and unsupported by the evidence. The duty of candor was breached in the continued reliance on Christopher Steele via DOJ official Bruce Ohr (after they represented to FISC that he had been terminated as a source) and the omission of material facts and exculpatory evidence that undercut their now-debunked representation that Carter Page was operating as a Russian agent.

Fired Former FBI Director Andrew McCabe made the decision to put what is likely the infamous pee-pee garbage story from the dossier into reports that was shared with the press based on a directive from President Obama.
This fake and disgusting piece of information they all knew was false at that time was used anyway to support their spying on candidate and President Trump.
The FBI knew in January 2017 that the Trump-Russia dossier was a crap document.
Catherine Herridge released a page from the recent FISA report that shows that Andrew McCabe gave the directive to the FBI to include all the information from the Steele dossier in their Intel assessment per a directive from Obama:
This grotesque and now confirmed totally debunked piece of garbage known as the dossier was then 'leaked' to the press before President Trump was even sworn in as President.
The BBC's reporter Paul Wood wrote an article at the BBC on January 12, 2017, discussing the pee-pee garbage in the dossier and made it sound like it was legit and the President of the US was under the thumb of Russian President Putin.
The significance of these allegations is that, if true, the president-elect of the United States would be vulnerable to blackmail by the Russians.
I understand the CIA believes it is credible that the Kremlin has such kompromat - or compromising material - on the next US commander in chief. At the same time a joint taskforce, which includes the CIA and the FBI, has been investigating allegations that the Russians may have sent money to Mr Trump's organisation or his election campaign.
Claims about a Russian blackmail tape were made in one of a series of reports written by a former British intelligence agent, understood to be Christopher Steele.
As a member of MI6, he had been posted to the UK's embassy in Moscow and now runs a consultancy giving advice on doing business in Russia. He spoke to a number of his old contacts in the FSB, the successor to the KGB, paying some of them for information.
They told him that Mr Trump had been filmed with a group of prostitutes in the presidential suite of Moscow's Ritz-Carlton hotel. I know this because the Washington political research company that commissioned his report showed it to me during the final week of the election campaign.
Wood was interviewed on January 12, 2017, a few days before President Trump's inauguration. In this interview he spewed the Democrat's bogus talking points regarding the bogus dossier like a good MSM soldier. In his interview he said:
...The President-elect of the United States is vulnerable to blackmail. Imagine if that's true. There are already senior Republicans like John McCain talking about hearings. There are Democrats, not just wishful thinking on their part, talking about impeachment...

FBI Published December 13 Last Update December 14
'''Horowitz report spotlights little-known FBI agent's role in Russia probe, Flynn case
By Gregg Re | Fox News'''
Inspector General Michael Horowitz's long-awaited report this week on FBI and Justice Department surveillance abuses does not provide the name of an unidentified FBI supervisory special agent (SSA) who made a series of apparent oversights in the bureau's so-called "Crossfire Hurricane" probe into the Trump campaign.
However, a review of Horowitz's findings leaves little doubt that the unnamed SSA is Joe Pientka – someone who could soon play a prominent role in the ongoing prosecution of Michael Flynn, as the former Trump national security adviser fights to overturn his guilty plea on a single charge of making false statements.
Specifically, Horowitz's report states that "SSA 1" was one of the FBI agents to interview Flynn at the White House on Jan. 24, 2017, in a seemingly casual conversation that would later form the basis for his criminal prosecution.
It was previously reported that the interviewing agents were Peter Strzok, who was later fired by the FBI for misconduct and anti-Trump bias, and Pientka, whom Strzok previously identified as his notetaker for the Flynn interview. Flynn's attorney has also mentioned Pientka's role during past court proceedings. Of the two agents, only Strzok is openly named in the Horowitz report, which strongly indicates that the other is Pientka.
"SSA 1," Horowitz's report states, may have helped mislead the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) about material facts concerning former Trump adviser Carter Page and British ex-spy Christopher Steele, whose unverified dossier played a central role in the FBI's warrant to surveil Page. …
… SSA 1 was given a supervisory role on the Crossfire Hurricane team, overseeing agents and reporting directly to Strzok. The special agent created the electronic sub-file to which the Steele reports would be uploaded and, according to Horowitz, these reports were used to support the probable cause in the Page FISA applications. …
…The FBI initially declined Fox News' request for an on-the-record comment. Late Friday, an FBI spokesperson contacted Fox News to repeatedly question why it was necessary to mention Pientka's name, saying that naming Pientka – or any agent – would endanger "operational security."

Q Research General #9699: Dark to Light Winter Solsticeis Coming Edition
so WHY did Christopher Steele makes friends with Ivanka, while he ran the MI6 Russia desk? Was in 2007. a year before Obama's reelection bid.
I agree with Rick Wiles that Steele was probably trying to gather intel from her. Why else would he be sniffing around her? We know that Obama was using every US intel agency to spy on Trump and try to frame him for Russian "collusion".
And we know from the first paragraph of IG report that Crossfire Hurricane started based on a tip from FFG ("Friendly" Foreign Government) re: Papadapolous
When did the foreign government start sniffing around? Steele was pursuing Ivanka in 2007.
>The FBI op was a continuation of foreign operation probably MI6. Was Steele/Invanka part of it, and did it start in 2007 (or earlier)?
Mifsud, who tried to set up Papadopolous, was confirmed in the IG report as an asset of a FFG.
>Papa D says Mifsud gave him $10,000 in Greece, and the FBI searched him immediately when he arrived in the US, detained him in the airport and asked repeatedly if he had cash
Was Mifsud MI6, and did he work with the FBI to set up Papa D? What was his relationship to Halper?

Good morning from a ukanon.
I wonder why publications are so desperately keen to say "former" MI6 agent Christopher Steele?
When Q said something BIG was coming, the FISC order yesterday is HUGE.
At this point, it may help to be clear about one thing.
The media and what is public in the media is simply theatre.
At this point, the whole of London, EU politica and D.C. know what is coming.
There seem to be a lot of questions around why are the democrats acting so bizarrely.
In order to prep the population for waking up that isn't awake yet, the Overton window needs to shift.
The population is increasingly awake yet there are some that aren't.
MANY of those this week are asking the same question.
On what basis are they impeaching President Trump?
No one is giving them an answer that makes sense.
The unhinged enemy are running around like headless chickens.
Their behaviour does not make sense because they have nowhere to go.
Can you believe the stress they are under?
Yet Hussein is pretending everything is ok? Xmas video?
On that last hope that someone will remove Pence and President Trump?
Yet they know if that were to happen, the entire Democratic and Deep State machine would be executed the next day in a military coup. The entire deep state would be hunted to extinction. Immediately. By Patriots. There would be nowhere that is safe for them. Not one place on the planet. They would be hunted. To extinction.
And they cannot get back into power.
There is no win for them.
That is why EVERYONE in the Deep State is turning rat. EVERYONE.
What a timeline.

I checked qresear.ch for this article from June 2019, but didn't get any results, so I'm assuming it was never posted. IMO it's a great 10 min read for normies that really lays out enough of the story accurately without overwhelming with too much. It sticks to a few key players (Adm Rogers vs Comey, Brennan, Clapper & Strzok) while leaving Q out of it, but aligns with everything Q has been telling us. IMO it's a nicely (((coated))) red pill
Here's a couple excerpts:
Durham has questions for Brennan, NSA's Mike Rogers has the answers
You remember John Brennan's Intelligence Community Assessment. This is the document where 17 US intelligence agencies all "unanimously" concluded that Vladimir Putin personally authorized FSB operations designed to favor Donald Trump and harm Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election. The implication was, of course, that Trump was possibly a Russian agent.Except it wasn't 17 agencies as only four were involved in making the actual assessment. The CIA, DNI, DOJ, and NSA. Only three people were part of formulating the document. John Brennan, James Clapper, and the infamous Peter Strzok.
Admiral Rogers noted that a two-page index summarizing the Steele dossier and listed as "Christopher Steele information" was added to the ICA index. Brennan had been pushing the Steele dossier all over town for months. Leaking it to the media.
James Comey had specifically authorized 3 CIA/DNI contractors ongoing illegal access to the surveillance systems. In Mike Rogers, Admiral Mike Rogers, Rogers, NSA, Spying, Intelligence Community AssessmentMarch of 2016, Rogers was alerted to the illegal use, cutting off access to the 3 contractors in April 2016. Rogers ordered an investigation. He found that of 40000 inquiries made since 2012 that 85% of them were illegal. 32500 illegal queries by CIA and DNI contractors authorized by James Comey to use FISA 702 authority to access the NSA surveillance systems, including PRISM.Rogers took the findings of his investigation to FISA Court presiding Judge Rosemary Collyer four days after the FISA court had approved the first FISA warrant on Carter Page..'
So the Russians clearly interfered, but I would dare say that their most important collaborators or co-conspirators in upending the American political system and sowing chaos were John Brennan, Hillary Clinton, James Clapper, James Comey, and Barack Obama.
John Durham certainly knows that none of this could have happened on the scale it involved if Barack Obama had not authorized it. Durham has questions for John Brennan and the rest of the coup plotters. Admiral Mike Rogers, an American hero, is ready to provide many of the answers.

FORMER NSA DIRECTOR ADM. MICHAEL ROGERS IS COOPERATING WITH PROBE OF TRUMP-RUSSIA INVESTIGATION
https://theintercept.com/2019/12/20/michael-rogers-nsa-trump-russia/
RETIRED ADM. MICHAEL ROGERS, former director of the National Security Agency, has been cooperating with the Justice Department's probe into the origins of the counterintelligence investigation of the Trump presidential campaign's alleged ties to Russia, according to four people familiar with Rogers's participation.
Rogers has met the prosecutor leading the probe, Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham, on multiple occasions, according to two people familiar with Rogers's cooperation. While the substance of those meetings is not clear, Rogers has cooperated voluntarily, several people with knowledge of the matter said.
Rogers, who retired in May 2018, did not respond to requests for comment.
The inquiry has been a pillar of Attorney General William Barr's tenure. He appointed Durham to lead the inquiry last spring, directing him to determine whether the FBI was justified in opening a counterintelligence investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election and alleged links between Russia and the Trump campaign, among other matters. What began as a broad review has turned into a criminal investigation, according to the New York Times. Barr has described the use of undercover FBI agents to investigate members of the campaign as "spying."
Last week, a separate, nonpartisan review of the investigation by the Justice Department inspector general concluded that while the FBI and Justice Department committed serious errors in their applications to surveil former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, the investigation was opened properly and without political bias. Barr and Durham took the unusual step of publicly disagreeing with some of the inspector general's conclusions, with Barr describing the FBI's justification for the inquiry as "very flimsy."
Rogers's voluntary participation, which has not been previously reported, makes him the first former intelligence director known to have been interviewed for the probe.
"He's been very cooperative," one former intelligence officer who has knowledge of Rogers's meetings with the Justice Department said.
Politico and NBC News have previously reported that Durham intends to interview both former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper. It is unclear if that has happened. Brennan and the Justice Department declined to comment. Clapper could not be reached for comment.
The Times reported on Thursday that Durham is examining Brennan's congressional testimony and communications with a focus on what the former CIA director may have told other officials about his views on the so-called Steele dossier, a set of unverified allegations about links between Russia, Trump, and his campaign compiled by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele.
Rogers is no stranger to the controversy surrounding the 2016 election. Shortly after Trump won the presidency, Rogers traveled to Trump Tower in New York, where he provided an unsolicited briefing to the then president-elect. Rogers informed Trump that the NSA knew that the Russians interfered in the election, according to three people familiar with the briefing. Despite delivering what Rogers told a confidant was "bad news," Trump would keep Rogers on as NSA director while dismissing Brennan and Clapper.

Soros Group Has Given $1.5 Million To Organization Closely Linked To Fusion GPS
A group George Soros operates gave $1.5 million in 2017 and 2018 to an organization closely linked to Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele.
Fund for Policy Reform, which is part of Soros' network of nonprofit groups, made the contributions to The Democracy Integrity Project, or TDIP.
TDIP was formed in January 2017 to continue investigating possible ties between Donald Trump and Russia, as well as Russian meddling in Western elections.
Fusion GPS and Steele are best known for their work on the Trump dossier, which came under heavy scrutiny in a Justice Department watchdog report released on Dec. 9.
A nonprofit group progressive billionaire George Soros controls contributed $1.5 million in 2017 and 2018 to The Democracy Integrity Project, an organization that has worked closely with Fusion GPS and dossier author Christopher Steele to investigate President Donald Trump and Russian meddling in Western elections.
Soros' group, Fund for Policy Reform, Inc., gave a $1 million grant to TDIP in 2017 and followed up with a $500,000 contribution in 2018, according to a database at Open Society Foundations, Soros' network of nonprofits.
Soros is listed as chairman and director of Fund for Policy Reform, which contributes heavily to left-leaning groups like Planned Parenthood and the American Civil Liberties Union.
Both of the TDIP grants were for general operating expenses, according to the database. It has been previously reported that Soros gave $1 million to TDIP, but the additional $500,000 has not been publicized.
TDIP is the brainchild of Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson and Daniel Jones, a former staffer on the Senate Intelligence Committee known best for producing a report on the CIA's torture program following 9/11. (RELATED: Soros-Backed Group Paid Fusion GPS, Steele $3.8 Million)
Simpson and his Fusion GPS co-founder Peter Fritsch wrote in a book in November that Jones formed TDIP in late January 2017 after he and Simpson met to discuss how to continue investigating Trump's possible ties to Russia, as well as Russian interference in Western elections.
TDIP's activities and funding sources have trickled out slowly over the past two years.
House Intelligence Committee Republicans revealed in a report released on April 28, 2018 that Jones, who once worked for Democratic California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, told the FBI in March 2017 about his newly formed organization. He said that he had secured $50 million in funding from seven to 10 wealthy progressives in New York and California and was working with Steele and Fusion GPS.

BREAKING: Durham Criminal Investigation Zeros In On Brennan, Communications With Comey
United States Attorney John Durham's criminal investigation into the origins of the FBI's Russia investigation is reportedly taking a close look at former CIA Director John Brennan. Durham has "requested Mr. Brennan's emails, call logs and other documents from the C.I.A., according to a person briefed on his inquiry," The New York Times reported. "He wants to learn what Mr. Brennan told other officials, including the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey, about his and the C.I.A.'s views of a notorious dossier of assertions about Russia and Trump associates." In October, The Times reported that the investigation had shifted from an administrative review into a full-fledged criminal investigation based on evidence that had allegedly been uncovered. Durham is also reportedly taking a close look at whether Brennan made contradictory statements between his private and public remarks about the anti-Trump Steele dossier and about "any debate among the intelligence agencies over their conclusions on Russia's interference." The Justice Department inspector general Michael Horowitz's report on the FBI's misconduct in surveilling the Trump campaign during the 2016 campaign found that the CIA informed the FBI not to rely on the Steele dossier because they viewed it as being as credible as an "internet rumor."
The New York Times added: Mr. Brennan has come into Mr. Durham's sights as he has focused on the intelligence community assessment released in January 2017 that used information from the F.B.I., the C.I.A. and the National Security Agency to detail Russia's meddling. They concluded that President Vladimir V. Putin ordered an influence campaign that "aspired to help" Mr. Trump's chances by damaging his opponent, Hillary Clinton. Officials and analysts who worked on that assessment disagreed on how to treat two pieces of intelligence: the assertion that Mr. Putin wanted to help Mr. Trump win rather than simply sow chaos, and the contents of the dossier of salacious, unproven allegations about links between Russia and Trump associates compiled by a British former spy, Christopher Steele. Mr. Durham's investigators also want to know to more about the discussions that prompted intelligence community leaders to include Mr. Steele's allegations in the appendix of their assessment.
Attorney General William Barr told Fox News on Wednesday that Durham was "not just looking at the FBI. He is looking at other agencies and also private departments and also private actors and so it is a much broader investigation. And also he is not just looking at the FISA aspect of it. He is looking at all the conduct - both before and after the election." Barr also slammed disgraced former FBI Director James Comey, saying, "One of the things that I object to is the tact being taken by Comey, which is to suggest that people who are criticizing or trying to get to the bottom of the misconduct are somehow attacking the FBI. I think that's nonsense. We're criticizing and concerned about misconduct by a few actors at the top of the FBI and they should be criticized if they engaged in serious misconduct. That doesn't mean we are criticizing the FBI and I think the tact of trying to wrap yourself in the institution and say gee, people who are criticizing the decisions I made are attacking the institution. I notice people don't do that as far as I'm concerned. People feel free to criticize me and I don't say gee you're attacking the honest men and women of the Department of Justice. I think leaders have to own their decisions and are fair game if they make bad decisions."

The federal prosecutor scrutinizing the Russia investigation has begun examining the role of the former C.I.A. director John O. Brennan in how the intelligence community assessed Russia's 2016 election interference, according to three people briefed on the inquiry.
John H. Durham, the United States attorney leading the investigation, has requested Mr. Brennan's emails, call logs and other documents from the C.I.A., according to a person briefed on his inquiry. He wants to learn what Mr. Brennan told other officials, including the former F.B.I. director James B. Comey, about his and the C.I.A.'s views of a notorious dossier of assertions about Russia and Trump associates.
Mr. Durham's pursuit of Mr. Brennan's records is certain to add to accusations that Mr. Trump is using the Justice Department to go after his perceived enemies. The president has long attacked Mr. Brennan as part of his narrative about a so-called deep state cabal of Obama administration officials who tried to sabotage his campaign, and Mr. Trump has held out Mr. Durham's investigation as a potential avenue for proving those claims.
Mr. Durham is also examining whether Mr. Brennan privately contradicted his public comments, including May 2017 testimony to Congress, about both the dossier and about any debate among the intelligence agencies over their conclusions on Russia's interference, the people said.
The people familiar with Mr. Durham's inquiry stressed that it was continuing and it was not clear what crimes, if any, he had uncovered. Representatives for Mr. Brennan and the Justice Department declined to comment.
Defenders of Mr. Brennan have long maintained he did nothing wrong and properly sounded the alarm on Russian interference in the 2016 election, and he told MSNBC this fall that he would answer Mr. Durham's questions if asked.
"I feel good about what it is we did as an intelligence community, and I feel very confident and comfortable with what I did, so I have no qualms whatsoever about talking with investigators who are going to be looking at this in a fair and appropriate manner," Mr. Brennan said.
Mr. Durham, the United States attorney in Connecticut, has previously conducted politically fraught investigations, including allegations of wrongdoing in the C.I.A.'s detainee torture program. Attorney General William P. Barr appointed him this year to re-examine not only the origins of the F.B.I.'s Russia investigation but more broadly how the government uncovered Moscow's election interference and dealt with those findings.
"He is not just looking at the F.B.I.," Mr. Barr said in an interview broadcast Thursday evening on Fox News. "He is looking at other agencies."
Calling it a "much broader investigation, Mr. Barr added, "He is looking at all the conduct - both before and after the election."

They concluded that President Vladimir V. Putin ordered an influence campaign that "aspired to help" Mr. Trump's chances by damaging his opponent, Hillary Clinton.

His research, funded by Democrats, has been ground zero for conservative allegations that the origins of the Russia investigation were tainted.
"The president bore the burden of probably one of the greatest conspiracy theories - baseless conspiracy theories - in American political history," Mr. Barr told Fox News. He has long expressed skepticism that the F.B.I. had enough information to begin its inquiry in 2016, publicly criticizing an inspector general report released last week that affirmed that the bureau did.
Mr. Barr has long been interested in the conclusion about Mr. Putin ordering intervention on Mr. Trump's behalf, perhaps the intelligence report's most explosive assertion. The C.I.A. and the F.B.I. reported high confidence in the conclusion, while the N.S.A., which conducts electronic surveillance, had a moderate degree of confidence.

Missteps, selective coverage drive Trump supporters into full revolt against press
Pew shows Dems, Republicans agree the press doesn't deal fairly with all perspectives
President Trump has broken the press in America.
Or at least he has left it bruised and battered, according to an analysis by the Pew Research Center, which crunched reams of data collected from 50 surveys and found that while Democrats continue to have faith in American media, Mr. Trump's followers are quite done with it all.
The findings were released just days after the press received its latest black eye in the inspector general's report looking at the FBI's behavior during its investigation into Mr. Trump. The inspector general thoroughly punctured journalists who insisted that the Christopher Steele dossier had little to do with the FBI's ability to obtain a secret warrant to spy on one of the candidate's advisers.

Q Research General #9675: Swamp Thang! Edition
1. Who is Joseph Mifsud?
A congressional source last week said, "I don't see any way the investigation can be aboveboard if Mifsud isn't a Russian agent."
Horowitz said all four of the FISA warrant applications for Carter Page relied upon a core probable-cause argument based on the idea that the FBI was conducting a legitimate investigation into Russian election interference.
Horowitz wrote that the "sole predication" for that investigation was a statement former Trump aide George Papadopoulos made to an Australian diplomat named Alexander Downer. Papadopoulos allegedly told Downer that a Maltese academic named Joseph Mifsud told him that Russians had "dirt" on Hillary Clinton.
2. Someone is not telling the truth, Vol. 1:
The Horowitz report is not kind to former CIA chief John Brennan.
Brennan in May of 2017 testified before Congress that he was "aware of intelligence and information about contacts between Russian officials and U.S. persons" that "served as the basis for the FBI investigation."
Horowitz contradicts this:
We also asked those FBI officials involved . . . whether the FBI received any other information, such as from members of the USIC, that the FBI relied upon to predicate Crossfire Hurricane. All of them told us that there was no such information. . . . We also asked [James] Comey and [Andrew] McCabe about then-CIA Director John Brennan's statements. . . . Comey told us that while Brennan shared intelligence . . . [he] did not provide any information that predicated or prompted the FBI to open Crossfire Hurricane.
3. Someone is not telling the truth, Vol. 2:
In a related problem, Horowitz on pages 75-76 of his report says former Attorney General Loretta Lynch told his office that "in the spring of 2016, Comey and [former Deputy Director Andrew] McCabe pulled her aside and provided information about Carter Page, which Lynch believed they learned from another member of the Intelligence Community."
Comey and McCabe both denied this, telling Horowitz they did not remember being told about Carter Page. With regard to Lynch's recollection of a conversation, Comey said "he did not think it was possible for such conversation to have occurred in the spring of 2016 because the FBI did not receive the [tip from Alexander Downer] concerning Papadopoulos until late July."
4. To whom does footnote 461 refer?
At the bottom of page 310, Horowitz describes an unusual communication to the FBI by a "former" confidential informant:
[A] former FBI CHS . . . contacted an FBI agent in an FBI field office in late July 2016 to report information from "a colleague who runs an investigative firm . . . hired by two entities (the Democratic National Committee [DNC] as well as another individual . . . [who was] not name[d]) to explore Donald Trump's longstanding ties to Russian entities." The former CHS also gave the FBI agent a list of "individuals and entities who have surfaced in [the investigative firm's] examination," which the former CHS described as "mostly public source material."
5. Are media corrections forthcoming?
The Horowitz report makes clear that multiple news cycles over the past few years were dominated by reports that were either incorrect or lacking factual foundation.
These included assertions by multiple outlets that the Steele dossier was not central to the FBI's efforts to secure a warrant on Page; that the FBI found Christopher Steele and his dossier "credible"; that tales of FISA abuse were a conspiracy theory (one of many claims Mother Jones called "bullshit"); that the memo written by Devin Nunes on the subject was wrong and had been "debunked"; that Russians "blocked" Trump from nominating Mitt Romney as secretary of state; that Trump lawyer Michael Cohen was in Prague (presumably to meet Russian hackers); that a "pee tape" existed; that Russia's Alfa Bank and the Trump campaign were communicating via a secret server; that the FISA warrant on Page must have been producing good intelligence in order to be renewed three times; and many other things.

Durham's Broad Spygate Inquiry Looking at Private Actors, Barr Says
BY IVAN PENTCHOUKOV
1 CommentsDecember 19, 2019 Updated: December 19, 2019
The investigation into the surveillance of the Trump campaign is broad in scope and includes actions taken by private actors, according to Attorney General William Barr.
Barr made the revelation in an interview with Fox News aired on Dec. 18. He appointed U.S. Attorney John Durham earlier this year to look into the origins of the counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign and whether the spying on Trump-campaign associates was legal and free of improper motive.
"He's not just looking at the FBI," Barr said. "He's looking at other agencies and departments and also private actors. So it's a much broader investigation."
Private actors figured prominently in the investigation of the Trump campaign. Former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele compiled an opposition research dossier on Trump. The dossier played a central role in the FBI's decision to apply for a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant on Trump-campaign associate Carter Page. The Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee ultimately funded Steele's work by retaining the Fusion GPS research firm through Perkins Coie, a law firm.

"As 're-volution' or 're-evolution', the spiral progression is symbolic of the transpersonal route to that higher level of consciousness which is sought by all esoteric and occult systems… the circumambulatory, as utilised in mazes and labyrinths; and oscillation, the movement back and forth between dualities…
The archetypal image of the spiral came to render itself in the idea of a path that could be climbed in stages to reach God, a notion fundamental to both the Kabbalah and exponents of magic down the centuries, and made concrete in the three- and two-dimensional initiatory mazes which existed in antiquity.It is believed that such mazes, or processional pathways, existed… Pilgrims would have entered the maze part way up the side of the hill and traveled first in a clockwise, then in an anti-clockwise, direction making their way to the holy summit, possibly by means of seven full circuits, absorbing the energy of the natural 'power station' as they went… The great ziggurat of Babylon, the original Tower of Babel, was called the Etemenanki, the 'Temple of the Foundation of Heaven and Earth', and its holy summit was reached by a spiral path ascending through seven tiers. The septenary spiral has been interpreted as the 'world centre' motif…Such places are indicative of the 'prototypical sacred and spiral mountain', and represent the symbolic World Mountain of old, the omphalos, where above and below, the sky opening and the underworld, conjoin.

Can the Senate also bring in information like - Hillary paid British Spy Christopher Steele to make up lies about Trump. Those lies were used, knowingly, to spy on Trump.
Can the Senate do that, spend their time destroying the Democrats when Democrats are watching to see if Trump is actually removed?

Despite Warnings, FISA Court 'Did Absolutely Nothing' Over Alleged FISA Abuse: Rep. Nunes
BY MIMI NGUYEN LY
4 Comments December 18, 2019 Updated: December 18, 2019 Share
House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) said that he warned the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC or FISA court) twice last year of problems about the warrants it granted to the FBI to surveil former Trump campaign aide Carter Page, but the court "did absolutely nothing about it."
ADVERTISING
"The way that the court has conducted themselves is totally inappropriate, they ignored clear evidence that we'd presented to them ... they did absolutely nothing about it," Nunes told Fox News host Martha McCallum late Tuesday. "They've left Congress no choice but to have to step in and fix this process."
The FBI had in late October 2016 secured a FISA warrant and renewed it three times to surveil Page for a total of twelve months.
Nunes's remarks Tuesday come after Judge Rosemary Collyer, the presiding judge of the FISA court, sent a letter (pdf) to the FBI criticizing it for misleading the court over its surveillance-application process. The letter also told the FBI that it has until Jan. 10 to come up with a solution.
That same day, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said he would make FISA court reform the top priority for the committee in 2020.
Nunes added to Fox News: "I'm glad that the FISC court [has] come out and [made] a statement but your viewers need to know that the FISC is also culpable in this madness."
The FISA court is made up of 11 judges who sign off on warrants related to national security and intelligence gathering. It "entertains applications submitted by the United States Government for approval of electronic surveillance, physical search, and other investigative actions for foreign intelligence purposes," according to a description on the court's website.
The FISA court had been warned twice in 2018 about the FBI's FISA application (pdf) to surveil Page, but took no action, Nunes said. One of the letters was sent in February 2018 which warned the court "of very serious matters" regarding the FISA applications.
The letter was based on a memo (pdf)-commonly referred to as the Nunes memo-that Republicans in the House Intelligence Committee released at the time.
Nunes added that he also told the FISA court about "source #2," which he said the FBI used alongside the Steele dossier and "fake news stories" to obtain the FISA warrant to surveil Page.
"Source #2" was mentioned in the report (pdf) released by the Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General Michael Horowitz on Dec. 9 that found 17 "significant inaccuracies and omissions" in the FBI's application and renewals for the FISA warrant to spy on Page.
Nunes said, "What we assumed when we wrote the original memo was that source two was legitimate. But later, Trey Gowdy, myself and John Ratcliffe and our investigative team, we began to look at source #2, and we discovered: number one, that they had actually begun spying before they even got the warrant, [and] number two, [that] they left all the exculpatory evidence-evidence that [the FBI] should have put forward on both Page and [another former Trump campaign aide George] Papadopoulos.
"I think Papadopoulos is really key because he's the reason that they started the entire investigation and he denied it clearly. So at that point, when you have a full-blown [counterintelligence] investigation going on, you should do something. But the point here is that the court knew about all this," Nunes added.
The FBI's warrant applications relied almost entirely on an uncorroborated dossier compiled by ex-British spy Christopher Steele, who was hired by opposition research firm Fusion GPS and funded by Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee. Steele compiled the dossier by using second- and third-hand sources with ties to the Kremlin.
Top FBI and DOJ officials signed off on the FISA warrants despite evidence that the dossier was unverified and that Steele was biased against then-candidate Donald Trump leading up to the 2016 presidential elections. The FISA application also omitted the fact that the Clinton campaign funded the dossier, as well as exculpatory details of Page's assistance to the FBI.
The Steele dossier claims eventually became the foundation of the Trump-Russia narrative spread by some media outlets, politicians, and Obama administration officials. But none of the 103 key allegations contained in the Steele dossier were verified during former special counsel Robert Mueller's 22-months-long investigation.

Jonathan Winer: Why I turned over Steele dossier

Jonathan Winer, a former deputy secretary at the US State Department and the man who gave the department the Steele dossier, says the core of the dossier had information about Russian interference that Christopher Steele felt the US should have.

David CORN????
"Baker received a copy of the repugnant and false Christopher Steele Russia dossier about the Russian "golden shower" prostitutes and Donald Trump from Baker's "long-time friend" David Corn of Mother Jones. The Steele dossier was paid for by the Hillary Clinton Campaign.
Baker also received Trump Russia documents from Michael Sussmann, the Perkins Coie attorney who is linked to the DNC. Perkins Coie also represented Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton's campaign.
The Wall Street Journal reported on March 21, 2019:
Mr. Baker explains that top FBI leadership was told Justice Department attorney Bruce Ohr "had some type of relationship" with Mr. Steele and "that somehow through that mechanism . . . information was flowing to the FBI." He says that his "longtime friend," the liberal Mother Jones reporter David Corn, also fed the FBI the dossier. "I know that David was anxious to get this into the hands of FBI. And being the person at the FBI that he knew the best, he wanted to give it to me." Mr. Baker admits that he "assumed" Mr. Corn got it from "Simpson or somebody acting on Simpson's behalf." He further admits a lawyer with ties to the DNC, Michael Sussmann, also passed along to Mr. Baker documents with Trump-Russia accusations.
The salacious nature of the dossier that FBI General Counsel James Baker passed on from David Corn was intended to create a feeding frenzy as it was leaked to the dependable Mockingbird Media in an effort to smear Donald Trump and set the course toward the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller. Baker's scheme produced the intended results."

Andrew McCabe's Defense Of The FBI And Steele Dossier Crumble Under Weight Of IG Report
The DOJ report on the FBI's surveillance abuses against the Trump campaign severely undermined Andrew McCabe's recent defense of Christopher Steele and his anti-Trump dossier.
McCabe told journalist Carl Bernstein in October that the FBI was unable to disprove much of the dossier. He also said Steele had provided information in the past that the FBI used in search warrants and criminal indictments.
The DOJ report refuted both of those assertions in a scathing report that blasted the FBI for withholding derogatory information about the dossier in order to conduct surveillance on Carter Page.
Andrew McCabe hyped Christopher Steele and the infamous dossier in an October interview, saying the FBI was unable to disprove much of the information in the salacious document, and that the bureau had relied on the ex-British spy's information in the past for use in criminal indictments and search warrants.
"There was a lot of information that we could not disprove. There was a fair amount of information that we knew was accurate, but there are always questions with respect to timing," McCabe told journalist Carl Bernstein at an event Oct. 3.
"Steele had a history of good reporting to us ... information that was judged to be so accurate that it was used in things like arrest warrants and indictments," the former FBI deputy director continued.
But McCabe left out the full story about Steele, the dossier, and the FBI's investigation of the report - one that was detailed extensively in the Justice Department inspector general's report released Dec. 9.
The report said, contrary to McCabe's claims, that the FBI was unable to corroborate any of Steele's specific allegations about Donald Trump or members of his campaign, including Carter Page, who was the subject of FBI surveillance that was based heavily on the dossier.
FBI agents who worked on Crossfire Hurricane, the code name for the Trump-Russia probe, also withheld exculpatory information regarding Page and derogatory information regarding Steele and the dossier.

Q Research General #9637: Happy Q-teenth of December
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2019/12/17/klein-ig-report-makes-clear-that-durham-needs-to-investigate-joe-biden-susan-rice-john-kerry/
A thorough review of the Justice Department's Inspector General report about the FBI's Russia collusion investigation makes clear that separate probes are immediately needed to check questionable actions taken by the Obama-era State Department under John Kerry in fueling the Russia hoax.
The IG report further did not investigate the roles played by senior Obama administration officials in the controversial early stages of the Russia investigation, including those of Joe Biden and Susan Rice.
It is not immediately clear whether federal prosecutor John H. Durham's criminal investigation into the origins of the FBI's Russia probe will focus specifically on the State Department or on the executive branch of the Obama administration.
The "methodology" section of IG Michael Horowitz's report makes clear the activities of other U.S. government agencies outside the FBI did not fall within the purview of the report. Relevant State Department officials refused to participate and Horowitz lacked the subpoena power to compel their testimony.
That section of the report states:
We reviewed relevant information that other U.S. government agencies provided to the FBI in the course of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. Because the activities of other agencies were not within the scope of this review, we did not seek to obtain records from them that the FBI never received or reviewed, except for a limited amount of State Department records relating to Steele.
...
Two witnesses, Glenn Simpson and Jonathan Winer (a former State Department official), declined our requests for voluntary interviews, and we were unable to compel their testimony. The OIG does not have authority to subpoena for testimony former Department employees or third parties who may have relevant information about an FBI or Department program or operation.
The Winer mentioned is former State Department official Jonathan Winer who exchanged documents and information with anti-Trump dossier author Christopher Steele, and passed the dossier contents to other officials at Kerry's State Department. Winer admitted to receiving information from Clinton associate Sidney Blumenthal that originated with Cody Shearer, a shadowy former tabloid journalist who has long been closely associated with various Clinton scandals. Winer conceded that he passed Shearer's anti-Trump material to Steele.
Winer is one of several State Department officials who played key roles in disseminating the dossier and even in reportedly greenlighting the FBI's original contact with Steele where the ex-British spy fed the FBI unsubstantiated dossier information. Steele's dossier, financed by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee, played a key role in not only guiding the FBI's Russia probe but also in the Obama administration's successful applications to obtain successive FISA warrants to spy on former campaign adviser Carter Page.
Victoria Nuland, a senior official in Kerry's State Department, has come under repeated fire for her various roles in the anti-Trump dossier controversy. Nuland, by the way, happens to have worked closely with alleged Ukraine "whistleblower" Eric Ciaramella.
Muddying the waters, Breitbart News previously reported that Winer and Nuland gave seemingly conflicting accounts of Nuland's handling of the Trump hoax dossier.

Thank you for the intelligent reply. I don't want to change anybody's mind, but I do want to learn whether it is fake.
I agree that it clearly should have been Christopher Steele in Ace Weems' article.
That does weigh in favor of the Michael Steele in the document being an erroneous reference to Christopher Steele, but only if the author of that document used Ace Weems' "CIA Gone Crazy" article as a source.
And I find it strange that Ace Weems suddenly stopped publishing Medium articles when the purported GCHQ document appeared on the internet.
I'm not trying to convince anyone. I'm still thinking about it.

That's very interesting.
Do you find the truthorfiction arguments persuasive?
Or is it the fact that it was declared fake so long ago that makes it more obviously fake?
I don't think those are very persuasive arguments.
First, the fact that the header matches the header of a real GCHQ document does not prove that it has been "lifted" from one.
Real GCHQ documents also have real headers.
Secondly, the document does not confuse RNC Chair Michael Steele with MI6 agent Christopher Steele.
It refers to an MI5 agent called Michael Steele. It does not say that this Michael Steele is the RNC chair or an MI6 agent. It appears that the sole ground for believing that this is evidence of fakery is the fact that Michael Steele and Christopher Steele have the same last name, and in order to believe that this is evidence of fakery, we must presume that nobody called Michael Steele has ever worked for MI5, which is quite a strange thing for truthorfiction.com to pretend to know, and we must also believe that the document's author accidentally substituted the name of the RNC chair in place of a British agent's name. These are two assumptions that are unsupported by any evidence and appear to be willingly accepted despite their implausibility because the author wants to reach the conclusion that the document is fake.
Thirdly, the claim the the document is written in American English and has poor grammar and punctuation is not supported by any examples, nor is it at all evident to me from reading the document that this is the case. It seems more likely to me that the UK intelligence services are aware that Americans believe themselves to be inferior to the British in matters of grammar and punctuation and can be made to submit to their authority by invoking feelings of inferiority based on language habits.
Fourthly, the fact that the signature matches a signature on a document that was published later, at a time when GCHQ has been embarrassed by allegations of spying on Trump and wanted to discredit those allegations, means that they would have had a very good reason to "lift" that signature and publish a document with the same signature to discredit the embarrassing document which they need to portray as fake.
Is there any credible evidence that the document is fake?
And why is there so much groaning and name-calling associated with this topic. Am I to infer that such childish behavior is intended to serve as a substitute for genuine evidence?

Gaetz asks the obvious question to Comeys admission. Good question and what did Comey just admit to
Republican Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz asked Sunday what former FBI Director James Comey did that was "more consequential" than botching a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant.
Comey was the guest on Fox News Sunday when host Chris Wallace asked the former agent if he were still in charge of the FBI, would he feel obligated to resign after the release of the damning report from Department of Justice Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz that found that FBI agents and officials made 17 major errors or omissions in the FISA applications.
But while Comey conceded the FISA process was flawed, he refused to admit any of the actions taken by the FBI amounted to misconduct or political bias and suggested that someone in the charge of a large government agency can't be responsible for the decisions and actions of all managers in the organization.
The former director initially declared the Horowitz report vindicated him but the IG refuted that boast in testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday, saying, "I think the activities don't vindicate anybody who touched this."

Book: Dossier Author Worked with Obama Admin to Cultivate Putin Sources
Christopher Steele, the author of the infamous anti-Trump dossier, worked with the Obama administration's National Security Council to cultivate Russian oligarchs as sources of intelligence about Russian President Vladimir Putin, a book by the co-founders of Fusion GPS relates.
Steele worked on the intel project with Bruce Ohr, the high-ranking career Justice Department official who reportedly served as a back channel between Steele and the FBI, according to the book.
Steele was also described as friends with Ohr's wife, Nellie, who worked for Fusion GPS where she was conducting research looking for connections between Russia and members of Donald Trump's campaign.
Fusion GPS was paid for its anti-Trump work by Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

Nunes tells Schiff he needs 'rehabilitation' after IG report: 'Admit you have a problem'
House Intelligence Committee ranking member Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., told committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., that he is "in need of rehabilitation" after a Justice Department Inspector General report on the FBI's Russia investigation and its use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) contradicted Schiff's past assertions.
In a 2018 memo, Schiff dismissed Nunes' concerns about the FBI's use of a FISA warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. The IG report confirmed that the FBI's warrant applications included 17 "significant errors and omissions," including a doctored email and reliance on unverified information from former British spy Christopher Steele.
"After publishing false conclusions of such enormity on a topic directly within this committee's oversight responsibilities, it is clear you are in need of rehabilitation, and I hope this letter will serve as the first step in that vital process," Nunes said in a Sunday letter.
Schiff's memo downplayed Steele's role and denied FBI wrongdoing, saying, "FBI and DOJ officials did not 'abuse' the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) process, omit material information, or subvert this vital tool to spy on the Trump campaign." Schiff also claimed at the time that the DOJ "made only narrow use of information from Steele's sources" for the Page warrant.
Nunes listed these statements and others, such as how the FBI conducted a "rigorous process" when vetting Steele's information, noting that "[t]he IG report exposed all these declarations as false."
IG Michael Horowitz's report indicated that Steele's information was not properly vetted, yet was key in convincing attorneys to give the go-ahead to the FISA warrant application, which was previously deemed a "close call."
Nunes recognized Schiff's acknowledgment of the "issues and errors" described in Horowitz's report, but said that his opposition to concerns raised by Attorney General Bill Barr and Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham – who is conducting a broader probe of the Russia investigation's origins – "makes it clear your rehabilitation will be a long, arduous process."
Nunes cited Schiff's failure to use his committee to conduct proper oversight while using it "as a launching pad to impeach the president for issues that have no intelligence component at all." He accused him of "hijacking" the committee, claiming, "As part of your rehabilitation, it's crucial that you admit you have a problem."
Schiff's office did not immediately respond to Fox News' request for comment about the letter, but in an interview with "Fox News Sunday," Schiff acknowledged the FBI's issues as described in Horowitz's report, and claimed he "would have called out the FBI" had he known of them.
The GOP ranking member called on the Democratic chairman to call Horowitz before their committee "at the nearest opportunity." Horowitz has already appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and is scheduled for another hearing before the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

Comey admits 'I was wrong' on FISA conduct, remains defiant on dossier in tense interview
Former FBI Director James Comey admitted on "Fox News Sunday" that the recently released Justice Department Inspector General's report on the launch of the FBI's Russia investigation and their use of the surveillance process showed that he was "overconfident" when he defended his former agency's use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
This comes days after Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report and testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee detailed concerns that included 17 "significant errors and omissions" by the FBI's investigative team when applying for a FISA warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. Horowitz referred "the entire chain of command" to the FBI and DOJ for "how to assess and address their performance failures" during the probe, which was conducted while Comey was in charge.
IG HOROWITZ RIPS FBI 'FAILURE IN RUSSIA PROBE, SAYS NOBODY VINDICATED BY REPORT
"He's right, I was wrong," Comey said about how the FBI used the FISA process, adding, "I was overconfident as director in our procedures," and that what happened "was not acceptable."
Horowitz did make it clear that he believes the FBI's investigation of Russian election interference and possible connections with the Trump campaign was properly initiated, but he did note that this is based on a "low threshold." He also concluded that there was no testimonial or documentary evidence to show that the investigation started due to any political bias, but said the issue of bias "gets murkier" when it comes to the various issues with the FISA process.
That process included the reliance on information gathered by former British spy Christopher Steele as part of opposition research conducted by Fusion GPS for the Democratic National Committee and Clinton campaign. Horowitz's report stated that government attorneys were hesitant to approve a FISA warrant application until they relied on unverified information from Steele. That information also was used in subsequent renewals for the FISA warrant.
Comey downplayed the role of Steele's information in obtaining the FISA warrant against Page, claiming Sunday that it was "not a huge part of the presentation to the court," just part of the information included in the warrant application.
He insisted that he and Horowitz "weren't saying different things" about Steele's significance, but host Chris Wallace then read Horowitz's words, which said Steele's information "played a central and essential role" in establishing probable cause.

Q Research General #9612: 17 Things Edition
UNBELIEVABLE: Fusion GPS Founders Continue Their Lies - Claim AG Barr Twisted Mueller Report Beyond Recognition
Fusion GPS Founders and hacks, Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch, had the gall to place an oped in the UK's far-left Guardian entitled Britain needs its own Mueller report on Russian 'interference'. In their piece they share the unreal. It's like they're from another universe and the DOJ IG report never came out on Monday [emphasis and numbers added]:
Fusion GPS, conducted much of the early investigations into Russia's support of the Trump campaign, aided by our colleague Christopher Steele, the former head of MI6's Russia desk. While our initial focus was on Russian meddling in US politics, it has since become increasingly clear that Britain's political system has also been deeply affected by Russian influence operations.
There the similarities end. For the past three years, the US has undergone a messy and boisterous effort to understand the extent of Russian influence on the 2016 election and beyond. There have been multiple congressional investigations with the power to compel documents and testimony from witnesses. There was a two-year investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller.
After mostly ignoring the issue during the election campaign itself, the US media have made up for lost time by digging deeply into Russian interference and the extent of the Trump campaign's complicity [1].
All of these investigations have been imperfect. The congressional investigations often devolved into farce as Trump's political allies decided to investigate the investigators instead of Russia's attack.[2] The Mueller report's damning findings were obfuscated by lawyerly language and twisted beyond recognition by Trump's loyal attorney general.[3] Mueller interpreted his mandate narrowly, leaving crucial questions unanswered.[4]
But the process did produce an avalanche of documents and testimony, a great deal of it public, that has aided understanding of what occurred. That makes it harder for Russia to reprise its attack. The Mueller report's main finding - that Russia had engaged in a "sweeping and systematic" campaign to elect Trump - was unambiguous and thoroughly documented.[5] So too was Mueller's clarion call for Americans of all political persuasions to wake up to the continuing threat of Russian interference in its politics.
In Britain, the official response has consisted largely of denial. Consumed by bitter divisions over Brexit and public spending, it took years longer than it should have for parliament to conduct an investigation of Russian penetration of British politics. Even now, the government has suppressed its findings until after the election - an unconscionable decision given the importance to the democratic system itself.
Many US institutions have shown more backbone and independence than their UK counterparts. Some of those who served in the Trump administration, such as the British-born Fiona Hill and Lt Col Alexander Vindman, have been willing to stand up in public and tell the truth, despite intimidation from the president and his allies. In the UK, the courageous whistleblowers needed to expose Russian influence have yet to emerge.
What a pile of garbage. These guys are perhaps the biggest liars in the entire Russia collusion sham.
They admittedly hired Christopher Steele who created a bogus dossier that we now know was false in January 2017, and in spite of this knowledge, Obama's Deep State FBI, DOJ and Intel Community pushed this Fusion GPS piece of garbage on the American people and used it in an attempted coup to remove President Trump from office.
These two goons who put the US and President Trump through hell over the past 3 years claim:
1. Russian interference and the extent of the Trump campaign's complicity.
As we now know there was no complicity between the President and Russia. The whole thing was made up by perhaps Simpson himself. The IG report released this past week confirmed that it was all made up. Steele's only sub-source in the Steele dossier said it was "word of mouth and hearsay" and a "conversation that[he/she] had with friends over beers". It was total garbage.
Trump had no relationship with Russia and 6 of 8 of the incidents noted in the Mueller report where there was contact between the Trump campaign and 'Russians' were set-ups by the Deep State.

Nunes tells Schiff he needs 'rehabilitation' after IG report: 'Admit you have a problem
House Intelligence Committee ranking member Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Calif., told committee chairman Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., that he is "in need of rehabilitation" after a Justice Department Inspector General report on the FBI's Russia investigation and its use of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) contradicted Schiff's past assertions.
In a 2018 memo, Schiff dismissed Nunes' concerns about the FBI's use of a FISA warrant to monitor former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. The IG report confirmed that the FBI's warrant applications included 17 "significant errors and omissions," including a doctored email and reliance on unverified information from former British spy Christopher Steele.
After publishing false conclusions of such enormity on a topic directly within this committee's oversight responsibilities, it is clear you are in need of rehabilitation, and I hope this letter will serve as the first step in that vital process," Nunes said in a Sunday letter
Schiff's memo downplayed Steele's role and denied FBI wrongdoing, saying, "FBI and DOJ officials did not 'abuse' the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) process, omit material information, or subvert this vital tool to spy on the Trump campaign." Schiff also claimed at the time that the DOJ "made only narrow use of information from Steele's sources" for the Page warrant.
Nunes listed these statements and others, such as how the FBI conducted a "rigorous process" when vetting Steele's information, noting that "[t]he IG report exposed all these declarations as false."
IG Michael Horowitz's report indicated that Steele's information was not properly vetted, yet was key in convincing attorneys to give the go-ahead to the FISA warrant application, which was previously deemed a "close call."
Nunes recognized Schiff's acknowledgment of the "issues and errors" described in Horowitz's report, but said that his opposition to concerns raised by Attorney General Bill Barr and Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham – who is conducting a broader probe of the Russia investigation's origins – "makes it clear your rehabilitation will be a long, arduous process."
Nunes cited Schiff's failure to use his committee to conduct proper oversight while using it "as a launching pad to impeach the president for issues that have no intelligence component at all." He accused him of "hijacking" the committee, claiming, "As part of your rehabilitation, it's crucial that you admit you have a problem."
Schiff's office did not immediately respond to Fox News' request for comment about the letter, but in an interview with "Fox News Sunday," Schiff acknowledged the FBI's issues as described in Horowitz's report, and claimed he "would have called out the FBI" had he known of them.
The GOP ranking member called on the Democratic chairman to call Horowitz before their committee "at the nearest opportunity." Horowitz has already appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and is scheduled for another hearing before the Senate Homeland Security Committee.

Horowitz Report: The Biggest Takeaway is that However The Hoax Began, It Ended As An Attempted Coup
The Horowitz Report is stunning, not for the IG's anodyne conclusions, but for the facts he has uncovered: By far the most important is that the investigation continued after January 2017, when the wheels fell off the Steele Dossier. The FBI's choices to lie and double down on a manifestly unfounded investigation turned their investigation into an attempted coup.
The 400+ page DOJ IG Review of Four FISA Applications and Other Aspects of the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane Investigation (the "IG Report") is far more troubling than Inspector General Michael Horowitz's bland conclusions imply. The report raises a host of issues and I hope to get to all of them in several future posts.
The first and foremost issue is that, while the Russia investigation aimed at Trump was founded entirely on the criminal allegations in the Steele Dossier (there were additional ancillary facts that were relevant but not criminal), the FBI knew by January 2017 that the Steele Dossier was itself unfounded. In its submissions to the FISA Court, the FBI made bald-faced lies about the Steele Report and then continued investigating President Trump and his administration for months, ultimately manipulating the situation in order to appoint a Special Counsel, who then carried on investigating for more than two years. These people need to be held to account criminally.
The Horowitz Report states that the FBI was able to corroborate minor details in the dossier that were already in the public record, but to the extent the dossier alleged criminal conduct, the FBI was never able to corroborate any of the underlying facts. In September 2016, at the same time that it was investigating Trump and his team, the FBI began to vet Christopher Steele as a confidential human source (CHS).

IG Report Reveals Previously Unknown FBI Investigation Of Alleged Dossier Source
An updated version of the Justice Department inspector general's report revealed the FBI opened a counterintelligence investigation in October 2016 on an alleged source for the Steele dossier.
The IG faulted the FBI for failing to disclose details about the source, who Christopher Steele said unwittingly provided information that ended up in the dossier.
Steele also told the FBI that he believed the source to be a "boaster" and "embellisher."
The FBI opened up a counterintelligence investigation in October 2016 against a Belarusian-American businessman who Christopher Steele said was an unwitting source for his infamous anti-Trump dossier, according to a newly unredacted version of a Justice Department inspector general's report.
The FBI failed to disclose the investigation against the alleged source - called Person 1 in the report - to Justice Department attorney and in applications submitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) surveillance warrants against former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.
The report also said the FBI failed to tell the surveillance court that Steele told investigators during a meeting on Oct. 3, 2016 that he considered Person 1 to be a "boaster" and "embellisher" who "may engage in some embellishment."
Despite those red flags, the FBI relied on information that Steele attributed to Person 1 to represent in Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) applications that there was probable cause to believe that Page was a Russian agent.
Investigators also failed to tell the FISC in applications to renew surveillance against Page that Steele's primary source disputed some of the information in the dossier that was attributed to Person 1.
Steele's main source, who is called "Primary Sub-Source" in the report, told FBI agents in January 2017 that he shared unverified "rumors" and bar-room talk with Steele, who in turn reported the information as confirmed.
The sub-source said he spoke by phone once to someone he believed to be Person 1. Steele has disputed his chief source's claims and said in a statement Tuesday that he "meticulously" documented and recorded conversations with the person.
Sergei Millian, who is Person 1, has vehemently denied being a source for Steele's dossier ever since news outlets reported him as such on Jan. 24, 2017, two weeks after BuzzFeed News published the salacious dossier.

"Bertrand further reports that Jonathan Winer, the Obama State Department's special envoy to Libya, and former John Kerry aide, was the go-between for Shearer and Steele while he was working at the State Department. Additionally, Senate Judiciary Chairman Charles Grassley released a heavily redacted version of the letter making a criminal referral against the author of the original dossier, Christopher Steele. The letter references a "contact" and "friend of the Clintons . . . contemporaneously feeding Steele allegations" about Trump. It is widely assumed that the contact in question is Cody Shearer. THE WEEKLY STANDARD has reached out to Grassley for comment and has received no response. "

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2019/dec/12/britain-mueller-report-russian-media-uk-us
The British political system has become thoroughly compromised by Russian influence. It's high time its institutions - including the media - woke up to that fact. In 2016, both the United Kingdom and the United States were the targets of Russian efforts to swing their votes. The aim was to weaken the alliances that had constrained Vladimir Putin's ambitions, such as the European Union and Nato. The efforts in both countries had much in common. They were aided by a transatlantic cast of characters loosely organised around the Trump and Brexit campaigns. Many of them worked in concert and interacted with Russians close to the Kremlin. The outcome in both countries was also eerily similar. Both countries have been at war with themselves in the three years since, pulling them back from the international stage at a time when Putin has consolidated his position in Crimea, Ukraine, Syria and beyond. Our Washington-based research firm, Fusion GPS, conducted much of the early investigations into Russia's support of the Trump campaign, aided by our colleague Christopher Steele, the former head of MI6's Russia desk. While our initial focus was on Russian meddling in US politics, it has since become increasingly clear that Britain's political system has also been deeply affected by Russian influence operations.
There the similarities end. For the past three years, the US has undergone a messy and boisterous effort to understand the extent of Russian influence on the 2016 election and beyond. There have been multiple congressional investigations with the power to compel documents and testimony from witnesses. There was a two-year investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller.
After mostly ignoring the issue during the election campaign itself, the US media have made up for lost time by digging deeply into Russian interference and the extent of the Trump campaign's complicity. All of these investigations have been imperfect. The congressional investigations often devolved into farce as Trump's political allies decided to investigate the investigators instead of Russia's attack. The Mueller report's damning findings were obfuscated by lawyerly language and twisted beyond recognition by Trump's loyal attorney general. Mueller interpreted his mandate narrowly, leaving crucial questions unanswered…

Steele Dossier Peddled Insane Conspiracy Theory That American Jews Were Secret Russian Spies
The widely discredited Steele Dossier at the heart of the Russian collusion hoax peddled an insane conspiracy theory about how Russians were convincing Jewish Americans of Russian descent to download malicious malware on American computers.
On page five in the third paragraph of the dossier, former British spy Christopher Steele wrote that agents of the FSB, the Russian Federal Security Service, were approaching Russian-Jewish-Americans who worked in the IT industry to conduct covert operations.
"In terms of the FSB's recruitment of capable cyber operatives to carry out its, ideally deniable, offensive cyber operations, a Russian IT specialist with direct knowledge reported in June 2016 that this was often done using coercion and blackmail," Steele wrote. "In terms of 'foreign' agents, the FSB was approaching US citizens of Russian (Jewish) origin on business trip to Russia."
If true, which it's not, evidenced by the fact that the entire DNC-funded dossier has been proven to be junk intelligence used by deep-state FBI officials to spy on the Trump campaign, then tech companies owned and operated in part by Jewish citizens would have been subjected to disaster.
The dossier served as the basis for the grand Russian conspiracy theory peddled by Democrats and the media to reverse the results of the 2016 election. Earlier this week, a new report from the intelligence community inspector general on the renewal of FISA warrants for FBI spying on the Trump campaign highlighted the corrupt nature of the entire operation alleging Russian collusion, including knowledge of FBI officials that the dossier was fault intelligence while still using it to gain permission to continue its investigation.

part 2
13. Instead of talking to the Trump campaign, the FBI secretly "wired up" sources and had them talk to four people affiliated with the Trump campaign, in August, September, and October 2016.
14. All of the information from this surveillance came back exculpatory regarding any supposed relationship to Russia and specific facts. But the FBI didn't inform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance court, which approved wiretaps against former Trump campaign volunteer Carter Page four times.
15. At one point early on, the FBI didn't have enough probable cause for a wiretap warrant, so it took the "Steele dossier" information against Trump, "which they'd done nothing to verify," and used that to get the wiretaps.
16. The wiretaps allowed the FBI to go back and capture Page's communications, emails, and other material from weeks, months, and even years ago.
17. Should the four FBI applications to wiretap Trump campaign aide Carter Page have ever been made, considering there were 17 critical omissions or errors by the FBI making it appear they had better evidence than they had? This is the meat of the issue, and "if you spend time to look at what happened, you'd be appalled."
18. The FBI withheld from the court all of the exculpatory information and the lack of reliability of the main FBI source, Christopher Steele, who was being paid by the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign to find evidence connecting Trump to Russia.
19. The major takeaway is that after the election in January, the FBI finally talked to one of Steele's important sources to try to verify some of the "dossier" information and sourcing, as they're required to do. This Steele source told the FBI he didn't know what Steele was talking about in the dossier, and that he'd told Steele that the information he'd provided was "supposition" and "theory." At that point, "it was clear the dossier was a sham." Yet the FBI didn't tell the court, and continued to get wiretaps based on the dossier.
20. Further, the FBI falsely told the court that Steele's source had been proven reliable and truthful. In fact, what the source had told the truth about was that "the dossier was garbage." It's hard to look at this "and not think it was gross abuse."
21. Were the four Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act judges who approved the four wiretaps against Trump associate Carter Page badly misled by the FBI? Yes.
22. Are people going to be held accountable, including at the very top of our intelligence agencies and FBI? Well, they're all gone.
23. The whole Russia collusion hype was a "bogus narrative hyped by an irresponsible press" that proved entirely false in the end.
Are former FBI Director James Comey and former FBI official Andy McCabe and others implicated in the Durham investigation? I think there was a failure of leadership in that group. Quoting the inspector general, the explanations he received "were not satisfactory.
You can draw your own conclusions."
24. Why haven't we already thrown people in prison? "These things take time." The government has to have proof beyond a reasonable doubt before we indict; it's a substantial hurdle. Nobody is going to be indicted and go to jail unless that standard is met.
In his interviews this week, Barr provided a treasure trove of information about what stands to be one of the most important investigations into our U.S. intelligence community of our time. His signposts indicate that we can expect a shakeup of a system that may have been broken for decades.

True Pundit reported in Sept. 2017 that the FBI paid Christopher Steele $100K for the concocted Trump dossier during the 2016 election and that the deal was brokered by Sen. John McCain
-It was all very hush and classified, of course, but True Pundit's FBI sources said Steele made $100K from the FBI's 'black budget.'
-A report released by the Inspector General on Monday confirmed Steele was paid $95,000 by James Comey's FBI.
-The IG report does not mention McCain. What a surprise.
Here is the original story:
-FBI insiders say fired FBI Director James Comey and Andrew McCabe, deputy FBI director, used Bureau funds to underwrite the controversial dossier on President Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election, sources confirm.
-True Pundit first received intelligence from FBI sources in March that the Bureau had struck a financial deal with Steele in 2016.
-Federal law enforcement agents have since divulged to True Pundit:
-Steele was likely paid in the $100,000 range by the FBI for the research. Perhaps even more.
Sen. John McCain was involved in brokering the introduction of Steele or Steele's preliminary research to FBI bosses.
-The FBI routinely pays third-party private Intel firms to gather evidence used to secure federal search warrants and arrest warrants, as well as FISA court warrants.
-The FBI does not vet the privately commissioned investigators, like Fusion GPS, who work "off the books" for the Bureau.
-The FBI pays such contractors from a budget that is not part of its public expenditures. The transactions are confidential, therefore, Freedom of Information Requests (FOIA) on such transactions are easily and legally denied.
-Steele and the firm Fusion GPS may have performed additional privately-commissioned intelligence work for the FBI.
The Steele dossier on Trump has since proven to be chalk-full (chalk, not "chock" used intentionally here) of wild and unproven intelligence.
-The more disturbing revelations however, is that a GOP U.S. Senator from the same party as Trump likely assisted the FBI to perform a bogus investigation of a presidential candidate during the 2016 election; the results of which were leaked to the news media in an attempt to boost Democrat Hillary Clinton's chances of winning the presidency

DOJ IG Michael Horowitz: Bruce Ohr Still Working at Justice Department
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said Wednesday that Bruce Ohr, a senior Justice Department official under scrutiny due to his unusual role in the FBI's investigation of the Trump campaign, still works at the Justice Department.
Asked by Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) if Ohr still worked at the DOJ, Horowitz responded, "My understanding is he is."
Horowitz on Monday released a report that confirmed that Ohr, unbeknownst to his superiors at the DOJ, acted as a go-between for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and ex-British spy Christopher Steele, author of the "pee dossier," after the FBI fired Steele as a source.
The report said Ohr had known Steele since at least 2007, and the two began discussing information Steele collected on the Trump campaign beginning in July 2016. After the FBI fired Steele as a source in October 2016, due to his sharing the information with the media, Ohr continued to consult with him.
According to the report, Ohr and Steele met at least 13 times after Steele was fired. After each conversation, Ohr would be interviewed by the FBI, so that he could pass on Steele's information to the FBI. The FBI was aware and approved of the arrangement, but the DOJ - who would later receive and review Steele's information - was not aware of the arrangement.
The DOJ was also unaware that Ohr's wife's had worked as a researcher for Fusion GPS, the same firm that Steele was working for and that was paid by the DNC and the Hillary Clinton campaign

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz said Wednesday that Bruce Ohr, a senior Justice Department official under scrutiny due to his unusual role in the FBI's investigation of the Trump campaign, still works at the Justice Department.
Asked by Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) if Ohr still worked at the DOJ, Horowitz responded, "My understanding is he is."
Horowitz on Monday released a report that confirmed that Ohr, unbeknownst to his superiors at the DOJ, acted as a go-between for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and ex-British spy Christopher Steele, author of the "pee dossier," after the FBI fired Steele as a source.
The report said Ohr had known Steele since at least 2007, and the two began discussing information Steele collected on the Trump campaign beginning in July 2016. After the FBI fired Steele as a source in October 2016, due to his sharing the information with the media, Ohr continued to consult with him.
According to the report, Ohr and Steele met at least 13 times after Steele was fired. After each conversation, Ohr would be interviewed by the FBI, so that he could pass on Steele's information to the FBI. The FBI was aware and approved of the arrangement, but the DOJ - who would later receive and review Steele's information - was not aware of the arrangement.
The DOJ was also unaware that Ohr's wife's had worked as a researcher for Fusion GPS, the same firm that Steele was working for and that was paid by the DNC and the Hillary Clinton campaign.
Horowitz's report said:
We did not identify a specific Department policy prohibiting Ohr from meeting with Steele, Simpson, or the State Department and providing the information he learned from those meetings to the FBI. However, Ohr was clearly cognizant of his responsibility to inform his supervisors of these interactions, and acknowledged to the OIG that the possibility that he would have been told by his supervisors to stop having such contact may have factored into his decision not to tell them about it.
We concluded that Ohr committed consequential errors in judgment by (1) failing to advise his direct supervisors or the [Deputy Attorney General] that he was communicating with Steele and [Fusion GPS founder Glenn] Simpson and then requesting meetings with the FBI's Deputy Director and Crossfire Hurricane team on matters that were outside of his areas of responsibility, and (2) making himself a witness in the investigation by meeting with Steele and providing Steele's information to the FBI.
The report said Ohr's not telling his superiors of his role led to the late discovery that Steele had told Ohr that Steele was "desperate that Donald Trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being the U.S. President."
Although Ohr had told the FBI this information, the FBI did not pass it on to the DOJ or the court granting surveillance warrants on Carter Page until a year after a fourth and final surveillance warrant was issued.
Horowitz's report recommended that the DOJ's Office of Professional Responsibility should "review our findings related to the conduct of Department attorney Bruce Ohr for any action it deems appropriate."
It added: "Ohr's current supervisors in [CRM] should also review our findings related to Ohr's performance for any action they deem appropriate."

Horowitz Admits FISA Warrants to Spy on Carter Page Based "Entirely" on Information From Phony Steele Dossier (VIDEO)
Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz testified Wednesday morning before the Senate Judiciary Committee led by Chairman Lindsey Graham.
Horowitz confirmed what Congressman Nunes stated in his FISA memo that he released nearly 2 years ago - the FISA warrants used to spy on Trump campaign advisor Carter Page was based "ENTIRELY" on information from the phony, Hillary-funded Steele dossier.
The 2-page FISA memo revealed that Hillary's phony Russia dossier that was compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele played an essential part of the Carter Page FISA applications.
McCabe also testified that if not for the phony, Hillary-funded Russia dossier, the FBI would never have sought the FISA warrants on Carter Page.
Nunes was widely mocked by the media and Democrats following the release of his FISA memo but he was right all along.
Schiff even tried to refute Nunes with his own counter-memo, but as usual, Schiff was once again proven to be a liar.

Analysis: IG's FISA Report Undercuts 'Schiff Memo,' Which Defended FBI And Steele Dossier
The Justice Department watchdog's report undercut key claims in the so-called Schiff Memo, released in February 2018 by Rep. Adam Schiff.
The memo downplayed the Steele dossier's significance to the FBI's surveillance of Carter Page. Schiff released it in response to a memo from Rep. Devin Nunes which criticized the FBI's handling of the dossier.
The DOJ watchdog found that the FBI made significant errors and omissions in its applications to spy on Page.
The Justice Department inspector general's report undercut many of the claims in a memo that Rep. Adam Schiff released in February 2018 defending the FBI and the Steele dossier, according to an analysis by The Daily Caller News Foundation.
In the memo, Schiff, a California Democrat, downplayed the FBI's use of information from former British spy Christopher Steele in applications for surveillance warrants against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. Schiff, who now chairs the House Intelligence Committee, also asserted that the FBI did not omit any key details about Steele from the warrant applications and that investigators went to great lengths to verify the dossier.

Lindsey Graham: FBI Ran 'Criminal Enterprise to Defraud the FISA Court'
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Monday excoriated the FBI's investigation into now-debunked collusion between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russia as a "criminal enterprise."
Graham made the stinging remarks following the Justice Department inspector general report's release in which 17 "significant inaccuracies and omissions" involving three applications filed under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act were detailed. The report, authored by DOJ inspector general Michael Horowitz, stated the inaccuracies likely led to the FBI's justification to surveil former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
"I believe there will be no debate among reasonably minded people, particularly lawyers, about how the system got off the rails, but in my view became a criminal enterprise to defraud the FISA court, to deny American citizen Carter Page his constitutional rights, and to continue an operation against President Trump as president of the United States," he said.
"These are statements I don't make lightly," he added.
The FBI included unverified information from former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele in its application seeking a warrant to wiretap Page. After a sub-source of Steele's raised doubt on the information regarding Page, the FBI withheld the concerns from the FISA court, said the report.
Although Horowitz harshly criticized the FBI's conduct, he ruled that the officials overseeing the investigation were not tainted by political bias and their information was "sufficient to satisfy the low threshhold" to launch the probe.
Attorney General William Barr issued a statement condemning the report's conclusions, saying it proved the FBI launched an "intrusive" probe into the Trump campaign on "the thinnest of suspicions."
"It is also clear that, from its inception, the evidence produced by the investigation was consistently exculpatory," Barr said. "Nevertheless, the investigation and surveillance was pushed forward for the duration of the campaign and deep into President Trump's administration."

Crossfire Hurricane in a teacup? IG report exposes gaping chasm between Russiagate inquiry and reality
The long-awaited report on the origins of Russiagate shows the intelligence community played fast and loose with the truth to build its case against candidate Donald Trump and inflate the specter of Russian election interference.
The report by the Department of Justice's Inspector General (DOJ IG) "makes clear that the FBI launched an intrusive investigation of a US presidential campaign on the thinnest of suspicions that, in my view, were insufficient to justify the steps taken," Attorney General William Barr said in a statement following the report's publication on Monday. Despite the clear efforts by a handful of malicious FBI officials to mislead the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court, he continued, the "evidence produced by the investigation was consistently exculpatory."
While praising IG Michael Horowitz's work, Barr made it clear he disagrees with its essential conclusion - that all the prerequisites were properly met in order to launch July 2016's counterintelligence inquiry into purported Russian election meddling, dubbed "Crossfire Hurricane."
Horowitz's report analyzed the launch of Crossfire Hurricane through surveillance of four Trump campaign figures - Carter Page, George Papadopoulos, Paul Manafort, and Michael Flynn - "to determine whether individual(s) associated with the Trump campaign are witting of and/or coordinating activities with the Government of Russia."
The entire probe was based on nothing more than a "friendly foreign government" tip about Papadopoulos claiming to have heard from Russia about juicy information on Hillary Clinton. That claim, plus "the FBI's ongoing cyber intrusion investigation of the July 2016 hacks of the Democratic National Committee," provided all the justification needed to surveil the Trump campaign going forward, even though the FBI acknowledged there was little by way of probable cause to suggest Page, at least, was acting as a foreign agent.
Some 17 total errors and omissions were found in the FISA documentation for Page alone, and the FBI's willingness to take the reporting of British spy Christopher Steele at face value in order to provide justification for surveilling Page - in the total absence of any corroborating information in its files, and compounded by the omission of contradictory information - requires a sizable suspension of disbelief.
The report highlights an internal conflict over the centrality of the unsubstantiated Steele Dossier, which played a starring role in the Russiagate narrative despite its dubious provenance. It was even included in the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) used to brief then-president Barack Obama and candidate Trump, even as former CIA director John Brennan flatly denied having relied upon the dossier "in any way" in court filings, applications, or other procedures.

The memo from the Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee reported:
A salacious and unverified dossier formed an essential part of the application to secure a warrant against a Trump campaign affiliate named Carter Page. This application failed to reveal that the dossier was bought and paid for by Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee.
The application cited a Yahoo News article extensively. The story did not corroborate the dossier, and the FBI wrongly claimed Christopher Steele, the author of the dossier, was not a source for the story.
Nellie Ohr, the wife of a high-ranking Justice Department official, also worked on behalf of the Clinton campaign effort. Her husband Bruce Ohr funneled her research into the Department of Justice. Although he admitted that Steele "was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being president," this and the Ohrs' relationship with the Clinton campaign was concealed from the secret court that grants surveillance warrants.
The dossier was "only minimally corroborated" and unverified, according to FBI officials.
All of these things were found to be true by the Inspector General Michael Horowitz in his December 9 report. In fact, Horowitz detailed rampant abuse that went far beyond these four items.
The Democratic minority on the committee, then led by Rep. Adam Schiff, put out a response memo with competing claims:
FBI and DOJ officials did not omit material information from the FISA warrant.
The DOJ "made only narrow use of information from Steele's sources about Page's specific activities in 2016."
In subsequent FISA renewals, DOJ provided additional information that corroborated Steele's reporting.
The Page FISA warrant allowed the FBI to collect "valuable intelligence."
"Far from 'omitting' material facts about Steele, as the Majority claims, DOJ repeatedly informed the Court about Steele's background, credibility, and potential bias."
The FBI conducted a "rigorous process" to vet Steele's allegations, and the Page FISA application explained the FBI's reasonable basis for finding Steele credible.
Steele's prior reporting was used in "criminal proceedings."
Each of these claims were found by Horowitz to be false.
Horowitz found that FBI and DOJ officials did in fact omit critical material information from the FISA warrant, including several items exculpatory to Page. Material facts were not just omitted but willfully hidden through doctoring of evidence.
The warrants were based on Steele's dossier, which was known by January 2017 to be ridiculously uncorroborated. The renewals did not find information that corroborated Steele's reporting. The warrants clearly didn't allow the FBI to collect valuable intelligence. And Steele's prior reporting was not used in criminal proceedings.
"We found that the FBI did not have information corroborating the specific allegations against Carter Page in Steele's reporting when it relied upon his reports in the first FISA application or subsequent renewal applications," the executive summary of the report says.
The media joined Department of Justice bureaucrats in bitterly opposing the release of the Nunes memo. The Justice Department released a letter to the press saying the action was "extraordinarily reckless,"would be "damaging" to "national security," and would risk "damage to our intelligence community or the important work it does in safeguarding the American people."
Then, when the report was released, the media made a variety of contradictory claims, all of them downplaying or dismissing the memo as nothing whatsoever. "Why Were The Democrats So Worried About The Nunes Memo?" asked The New Yorker. Rachel Maddow said that, far from destroying national security, instead the memo delivered "a sad trombone for Trump." "It's a joke and a sham," claimed Washington Post writers.
"The memo purports to show that the process by which the FBI and Justice Department obtained approval from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to conduct surveillance on former Trump adviser Carter Page was deeply tainted," the Post article says. "It does this by straining every which way to suggest that the basis for the warrant was the so-called 'Steele dossier,' which contains Democratic-funded research by former British spy Christopher Steele." (The IG confirmed this week that the efforts to secure a warrant to spy on Page were dropped due to lack of evidence until Steele delivered his memos.)

WTF This one is too joosee
Ivanka Trump was personal friends with former British spy Christopher Steele, according to person familiar with the situation
WASHINGTON - The former British spy who authored a series of reports alleging links between Russia and President Donald Trump's 2016 campaign had been a personal friend of Trump's daughter Ivanka, a relationship he said made him "favorably disposed" to the Trump family.
The previously unknown friendship between former intelligence officer Christopher Steele and Ivanka Trump was alluded to in a new report released Monday by the Justice Department's inspector general, which said Steele had "been friendly" with a Trump family member, a relationship he described as "personal."
Steele told investigators he had visited the Trump family member at Trump Tower in New York and had once gifted the person a family tartan from Scotland.
A person familiar with Steele's business Orbis confirmed the family member was Ivanka Trump.
The two met first met in 2007, two years before she married husband Jared Kushner, the person said. They emailed over the years and, between 2010 and 2012, Steele discussed with Ivanka Trump the possibility that the Trump Organization might hire his business to assist with projects in Russia and China. They remained friends through 2015, the person said.
A White House spokesman and an attorney for the Trump Organization declined to comment. ABC News first reported the relationship between Steele and the president's daughter.

...the malfeasance and misfeasance detailed in the Inspector General's report reflects a clear abuse of the FISA process, Attorney General William Barr
"The Inspector General's report now makes clear that the FBI launched an intrusive investigation of a U.S. presidential campaign on the thinnest of suspicions that, in my view, were insufficient to justify the steps taken," said Barr. "It is also clear that, from its inception, the evidence produced by the investigation was consistently exculpatory. Nevertheless, the investigation and surveillance was pushed forward for the duration of the campaign and deep into President Trump's administration."
"In the rush to obtain and maintain FISA surveillance of Trump campaign associates, FBI officials misled the FISA court, omitted critical exculpatory facts from their filings, and suppressed or ignored information negating the reliability of their principal source," Barr said. "The Inspector General found the explanations given for these actions unsatisfactory. While most of the misconduct identified by the Inspector General was committed in 2016 and 2017 by a small group of now-former FBI officials, the malfeasance and misfeasance detailed in the Inspector General's report reflects a clear abuse of the FISA process."
Barr said "FISA is an essential tool for the protection of the safety of the American people. The Department of Justice and the FBI are committed to taking whatever steps are necessary to rectify the abuses that occurred and to ensure the integrity of the FISA process going forward."
He noted that FBI Director Christopher Wray is "dismayed about the handling of these FISA applications."

Attorney General: Surveillance of Trump Campaign 'a Clear Abuse of the FISA Process'
Attorney General William Barr announced on Dec. 9 that the surveillance operation against the Trump campaign in 2016 amounted to a "clear abuse" of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) process.
Barr made the remarks in a statement responding to the Justice Department inspector general's report on the handling of the FISA applications for warrants to spy on Trump-campaign associate Carter Page.
"In the rush to obtain and maintain FISA surveillance of Trump campaign associates, FBI officials misled the FISA court, omitted critical exculpatory facts from their filings, and suppressed or ignored information negating the reliability of their principal source," Barr said.
"The Inspector General found the explanations given for these actions unsatisfactory. While most of the misconduct identified by the Inspector General was committed in 2016 and 2017 by a small group of now-former FBI officials, the malfeasance and misfeasance detailed in the Inspector General's report reflects a clear abuse of the FISA process."
DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz concluded in a report released on Dec. 9 that the four applications for warrants to spy on Page contained 17 significant errors. The errors and other failures amounted to "serious performance failures by the supervisory and non-supervisory agents."
Barr said FBI Director Wray is "dismayed" by the handling of the FISA applications. Wray is expected to announce a comprehensive set of reforms on Dec. 9, according to Barr.
The FBI launched a counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign in late July 2016. Barr concluded that the investigation was "intrusive" and was initiated based "on the thinnest of suspicions." The suspicions were "insufficient" to justify the steps the bureau went on to take, Barr said.
"Nevertheless, the investigation and surveillance was pushed forward for the duration of the campaign and deep into President Trump's administration," Barr said.
In late October 2016, the FBI secured a FISA warrant to surveil Page. The bureau renewed the warrant three times, surveilling Page for a total of twelve months.
The FISA warrant application featured claims from an unverified dossier of opposition research on Trump. Former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele compiled the dossier by using second- and third-hand sources with ties to the Kremlin.
"Steele himself was not the originating source of any of the factual information in his reporting. Steele instead relied on a Primary Sub-source for information, who used his/her network of sub-sources to gather information that was then passed to Steele," the inspector general's report said.
The Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee ultimately paid for Steele's work, a fact the FBI did not disclose in the warrant application.
While the extent of the surveillance granted in Page's case remains classified, FISA warrants allow for some of the most intrusive spying under the law. Under the so-called "two-hop" rule, investigators could collect the communications of every person Page interacted with as well every person who communicated with Page's contacts. As a result, it is possible that the FBI obtained the communications of the entire Trump campaign, both retroactively and in real-time.
A number of FBI officials directly involved in preparing and signing the FISA warrants have all either left or been fired from the bureau, including Director James Comey, Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, and Deputy Assistant Director Peter Strzok.
The scandal surrounding the surveillance warrants was amplified by the discovery of biased text messages between Strzok and FBI attorney Lisa Page, with whom Strzok was having an extramarital affair. Strzok and Page vented their hatred of Trump, spoke of his slim chances of winning the election, committed to stopping him from being elected, discussed an "insurance policy" in the unlikely event of a Trump victory and mulled "impeachment" once around the time they joined special counsel Robert Mueller's team.
Strzok led the investigation of the Trump campaign and the probe of Hillary Clinton's use of an unauthorized private email server for government work. In a report on the review of the Clinton-email probe, Horowitz concluded that Strzok and Page's biased messages "cast a cloud" over the investigation, but was unable to find evidence to support the claim that the bias had an effect on any investigative decisions.
Horowitz formally announced the investigation into the Carter Page FISA in March 2018. He submitted a draft report to the DOJ in September. Horowitz said at the time that his team reviewed more than 1 million documents and interviewed more than 100 witnesses.

Q Research General #9549:Corney's Day is Coming!!! Edition
Techno Fog comments on IG REPORT w/accompanied docs:
-The FBI used Christopher Steele to get information on General Flynn.
FBI promised Steele he would be paid "significantly" for this information.
-SSA1 (Pientka?) ran an op against Flynn under the guise of providing a defensive briefing.
-August 16, 2016: "A counterintelligence FARA case was opened on Flynn."
Just a week after Flynn Intel Group signed (8/9/16) a contract - and before it had done much, if any, work.
Extremely suspicious timing.
-IG Report confirms our previous suspicions:
Counter-intelligence investigations undertaken for FARA violations (conflated with 951 violations).
-"The FBI did not have information corroborating the Steele reporting"
Without corroboration - they lied to the FISC about Steele's credentials and his prior history as an informant.
-The Halper (FBI CHS)/Papadopoulos conversations were "conducted by the FBI" and recorded.
"The FISA application did not include the statements Papadopoulos made to his CHS that were in conflict with info included in the FISA application."
-The worst accusations against @carterwpage - that he was was offered a "bribe" in return for lifting sanctions - turned out to be a Steele lie.
Texts from the "sub-source" never even discussed a bribe.

IG Report: FBI Offered to Pay Christopher Steele "Significantly" to Dig Up Dirt on General Michael Flynn - FBI Ran an Op Against Flynn
The DOJ Inspector Genereal Michael Horowitz finally released his report on FISA applications during the 2016 elections-
Here is a link to the full report.
Attorney General Bill Barr released a statement today BLASTING the Obama-Comey FBI.
And the Comey FBI offered Christopher Steele, the author of the junk Steele Dossier, a lucrative contract to dig up dirt on General Michael Flynn.
Your tax dollars at work paying a British hack to spy on an Obama foe and American hero.

Steele warned that IG report contains information previously blacked out, report says
Christopher Steele, the British ex-spy and author of the anti-Trump dossier, was reportedly told that the Justice Department will release information about him that was previously blacked out in the department's internal watchdog report on the investigation into President Trump's 2016 campaign due on Monday. The New York Times, citing two individuals with knowledge of the situation, reported that Attorney General William Barr approved the release of the previously redacted information in Michael Horowitz's 400-page report. The report called Steele's heads-up unusual and said he was not given any indication of whether the information would benefit or hurt him. An after-hours email from Fox News to the Justice Department was not immediately returned.
Steele is poised to be a notable figure in the Horowitz report because he provided opposition research into the Trump campaign's connections to Russia which was funded by Democrats and the Clinton campaign. Much of the Steele dossier has been proven discredited or unsubstantiated, including the dossier's claims that the Trump campaign was paying hackers in the United States out of a nonexistent Russian consulate in Miami, and that former Trump attorney Michael Cohen traveled to Prague to conspire with Russians. Special Counsel Robert Mueller also was unable to substantiate the dossier's claims that Carter Page, who worked on the Trump campaign, had received a large payment relating to the sale of a share of Rosneft, a Russian oil giant, or that a lurid blackmail tape involving the president existed. Horowitz's report, as described by people familiar with its findings, is expected to conclude there was an adequate basis for opening one of the most politically sensitive investigations in FBI history and one that Trump has denounced as a witch hunt. It began in secret during Trump's 2016 presidential run and was ultimately taken over by Mueller.
The report comes as Trump faces an impeachment inquiry in Congress centered on his efforts to press Ukraine to investigate a political rival, Democrat Joe Biden - a probe the president also claims is politically biased. Still, the release of Inspector General Michael Horowitz's review is unlikely to quell the partisan battles that have surrounded the Russia investigation for years. It's also not the last word: A separate internal investigation continues, overseen by Trump's attorney general, William Barr and led by a U.S. attorney, John Durham. That investigation is criminal in nature, and Republicans may look to it to uncover wrongdoing that the inspector general wasn't examining. Trump tweeted Sunday: "I.G. report out tomorrow. That will be the big story!"

Rest of article:
"
-1.) Nancy Pelosi: Framer-in Chief of President Trump; from a "fine Catholic home" that taught her Catholicism says it is okay to kill 61 million babies; fit to live in a high-security nursing home, but not to work in one. Mother of a son who is just as lawabiding, adult, and talented as Biden's son Hunter.
-2.) Barack Obama: Kenya-born: Iran's "man of the century": insurrectionist in the shadows; lover of Ayatollahs; collector of pallets of cash; leading Climate Change hoaxer; and, not a crime, just fact: another typical Rahm Emmanuel-like, Chicago-based, shit-bird loser
-3.) Chuck Schumer: Abettor of the crimes of Pelosi, Obama, Feinstein, and Biden; a lead despicable in using people killed in shooting incidents - perhaps arranged by his party - for prompting fake crocodile tears, political gain, and the end of the Bill of Rights.
-4.) Adam Schiff: Nazi-like Gauleiter; shredder of the Constitution and Bill of Rights; longtime pal of a rich, Democratic-bundler, druggee, and accused doper/murderer of young men; illegal phone-tapper; Pharaoh-like dresser-upper at private parties (or rituals?).
-5.) John Brennan: Coup-ist; treasonous bastard; close ties to Saudis and perhaps 9/11: serial perjurer: hides his desperate fear with MSNBC tirades and Tweets, the latter all his IQ makes possible. (NOTE to the CIA Director: When will you get rid of the multiple Agency employees who are feeding intelligence to Brennan, Clapper, Pelosi, Nadler, Schiff, and other republic-and-Constitution attackers? If not forthwith, they will sink the whole Agency. Times a wastin'.)
-6.) Gerry Nadler: Nazi-like Gauleiter; Bill-of Rights destroyer; seemingly a former overseer at Tara; a mumbling, bumbling, none-too smart, Mr. Five-by-Five-type, this last no crime, but he has none of the redeeming qualities of that lad:
"Well, twirl my turban, man alive!, Here comes Mister Five by Five, He's one of those big fat bouncing boys, Solid avoirdupois! That man, Can really jump it for a fat man, The only trouble is there's no way of knowin', Whether he's comin' or goin'." (1)

-8.) Joe Biden: Thief harvesting (local and U.S. taxpayer?) dollars in Ukraine and Cyprus - at least; decades-long, child-feeler-upper; taunter and ridiculer of old, sick men; hider/abettor of Obama, Lynch, Holder, and IRS felonies; father of an over-age, moronic, crack-user that Dad forced the military to accept.
-9.) Hillary Clinton: All-time-champion foundation felon; inept but dedicated election-rigger; partner in husband-wife firm associated with several dozen mysterious murders; champion of the mass-murder of American babies, as well that of the Haitians abandoned by her charity; too many more items to count.
-10.) John Podesta: Pizza? Seth Rich? DNC Server? Enough said.
-11.) Eric Swalwell: Effeminate me-tooer participant in the illegal framing of Kavanaugh and the President; violator of the Geneva Accord's prohibition against releasing poison gas against civilians, a brutal attack seen and heard on MSNBC video.
-12.) James Clapper: Serial perjurer; taker of constant, lousily disguised trips to Australia to seek refuge from a foreign government that will shield him from the avengers of his and Brennan's lies, treason, and other crimes. He eventually will wish to changes places with the Koala bears dying in brush/forest fires.
-13.) Christopher Steele: Foreign mercenary waging war against a legitimately elected U.S. president; just another typical anti-U.S., MI6, British asshole - arrogance, smug looks, cowardice, big talk, no doing.
-14.) John Kerry: Obama's successor as lover of Ayatollahs: close family involvement with Biden crime family: abettor of the globalist/foreigner attempt to impose the quack-science Climate Change hoax in the United States to destroy the earning-power, savings, and liberties of America's now-rising working and middle classes.
-15.) David Ignatius: Washington Post's latest lying, pundit-in-chief; court-historian for the self-proclaimed resistance; No talent, but decades of publishing lies and compromising intelligence operations; now knee-deep in support of the Democratic party's illegal coup and insurrection.
-Question: Does the Constitution and the 1st Amendment protect pundits who knowingly publish data meant to further a violent domestic insurrection and destroy the national government, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights?
-Answer: The Founders, God bless 'em, were not dummies. Ignatius, his fellow lying scribblers, and all the U.S. citizens named above will pay dearly for their ill-deeds. There is no Constitutional protection for U.S. citizens who wage war against their country, especially those who enlist foreign governments to assist them.

Known notable uses( last 2 were Skirpal and Steele)
In 1967, a political scandal known as the D-notice affair occurred, when Prime Minister Harold Wilson made an attack on the Daily Express newspaper, accusing it of breaching two D-notices which advised the press not to publish material which might damage national security. When the newspaper asserted it had not been advised of any breach, an inquiry was set up under a committee of Privy Counsellors. The committee found against the government, whereupon the government refused to accept its findings on the disputed article, prompting press outrage and the resignation of the Secretary of the D-notice committee.
It has been reported[by whom?] that in 1971, four days following the Baker Street robbery, a D-Notice was issued, requesting that reporting be discontinued for reasons of national security. It is claimed that some security boxes contained embarrassing or nationally sensitive material. However, an investigation some years later showed that a request had never been made to the D-Notice committee.[4] In fact, The Times newspaper was still reporting about the case over two months later.[5]
In 2004 and 2005, three blanket letters were sent to newspapers advising against publication of countermeasures used against roadside ambushes of British forces in the Iraq War.[3]
On 8 April 2009, the Committee issued a DA-Notice in relation to sensitive anti-terror documents photographed when Assistant Commissioner Bob Quick arrived at Downing Street for talks about current police intelligence.[6]
On 25 November 2010, the Committee issued a note to editors drawing attention to standing DA-Notices 1 and 5 in relation to sensitive documents expected to be released on the website WikiLeaks.[7][8][9][10]
In June 2013, a DA-Notice was issued asking the media to refrain from running stories on the US PRISM surveillance programme, and on British involvement therein.[11]
In October 2013, Prime Minister David Cameron made a veiled threat to newspapers over NSA and GCHQ leaks, stating in Parliament that the government might use "injunctions or D-notices or the other tougher measures" to restrain publication of leaked classified information if newspapers did not voluntarily stop publishing them.[12]
In 2017, a notice was issued to British journalists regarding revealing the author of a controversial dossier alleging collusion between Donald Trump and the Russian government during the 2016 presidential election.[13] Multiple British outlets ignored this advisory and revealed his name anyway, including BBC News, The Daily Telegraph and The Guardian.[13]
On 7 March 2018 and on 14 March 2018 two notices were issued to protect MI6 in relation to some aspects of the Skripal affair. In the early 1990s Sergei Skripal was recruited by Pablo Miller, the MI6 agent inside the UK embassy to Estonia in Tallinn. The MI6 officer under diplomatic cover in Moscow at this time was Christopher Steele. Miller was also the handler of Skripal after he went to jail and was released by Russia in a spy swap. Both lived in Salisbury. Steele and Miller worked for Orbis Business Intelligence which compiled the controversial Trump-Russia dossier, comprising 17 memos written in 2016 alleging misconduct and conspiracy between Donald Trump's presidential campaign and the Putin administration. While the precise nature of the relations between Skripal, Miller, and Steele were hidden, enough was already known to raise questions about Skripal's ongoing involvement with British intelligence.[14][15][16]

Q Research General #9521: Riders On The DDoS Storm. ALL FOR A LARP Edition
Ukraine Was The Origin Of The Trump-Russia Collusion Hoax
Such awareness of Manafort's plans could have been obtained either through FBI surveillance, which began in 2014 and ended in early 2016, or through information provided by Manafort associates, for example, Ukrainian businessman Konstantin Kilimnik, who worked for Manafort and was a FBI and Department of State asset, not a Russian agent as later painted by the Mueller investigation. According to White House visitor logs, on January 19, 2016, Eric Ciaramella chaired a meeting of FBI, Department of Justice and Department of State personnel, which had two main objectives:
1-To coerce the Ukrainians to drop the Burisma probe, which involved Vice President Joseph Biden's son Hunter, and allow the FBI to take it over the investigation.
2-To reopen a closed 2014 FBI investigation that focused heavily on GOP lobbyist Paul Manafort, whose firm long had been tied to Trump through his partner and Trump pal, Roger Stone. That is, contain the investigation of Biden's son and ramp up the investigation of Paul Manafort.
Again, according to White House logs, the attendees at the January 19, 2016 meeting in Room 230A of the Eisenhower Executive Office Building were:
Eric Ciaramella - National Security Council Director for Ukraine
Liz Zentos - National Security Council Director for Eastern Europe
David G. Sakvarelidze- Deputy General Prosecutor of Ukraine
Anna E. Iemelianova (Yemelianova) - Legal Specialist, US Embassy Kyiv and US Department of Justice's Anti-Corruption Program.
Nazar A. Kholodnitsky, Ukraine's chief anti-corruption prosecutor
Catherine L. Newcombe - attorney in the Criminal Division, Office of Overseas Prosecutorial Development, with the U.S. Department of Justice
Svitlana V. Pardus - Operations, Department of Justice, U.S. Embassy, Ukraine.
Artem S. Sytnyk - Director of the National Anti-corruption Bureau of Ukraine
Andriy G. Telizhenko, political officer in the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington DC
Jeffrey W. Cole - Resident Legal Advisor at U.S. Embassy Ukraine, presumed to be FBI
Just two weeks after that meeting, on February 2, 2016, according to White House logs, Eric Ciaramella chaired a meeting in Room 374 of the Eisenhower Executive Office, which seems to be a planning session to re-open an investigation of Paul Manafort (Note: one of the crimes of which Manafort was accused was money laundering, an area covered by the Department of the Treasury). The attendees were:
Jose Borrayo - Acting Section Chief, Office of Special Measures, U.S. Department of the Treasury, Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
Julia Friedlander - Senior Policy Advisor for Europe, Office of Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes, U.S. Department of the Treasury
Michael Lieberman - Deputy Assistant Secretary, Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes, U.S. Department of the Treasury
Scott Rembrandt - Anti-Money Laundering Task Force, Assistant Director/Director, Office of Strategic Policy, Department of the Treasury
Justin Rowland - Special Agent (financial crimes), Federal Bureau of Investigation
It appears that Paul Manafort became a vehicle by which the Obama Deep State operatives could link Trump to nefarious activities involving Russians, which eventually evolved into the Trump-Russia collusion hoax. Remember, the key claim of the follow-up Steele dossier, the centerpiece of the Mueller investigation, was that Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort was the focal point of a "well-developed conspiracy between them [the Trump campaign] and the Russian leadership." Nellie Ohr, Fusion GPS employee and wife of Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr, not only worked with Christopher Steele on the so-called Trump dossier, but, in May 2016, was the conduit of information to her husband and two Department of Justice prosecutors of the existence of the "black ledger" documents that contributed to Manafort's prosecution. Bruce Ohr and Steele attempted to get dirt on Manafort from a Russian oligarch, Oleg Deripaska, efforts that eventually led to a September 2016 meeting in which the FBI asked Deripaska if he could provide information to prove that Manafort was helping Trump collude with Russia.

BREAKING: Judge Sides With Judicial Watch, Forcing Secret Barack Obama FBI-Clinton Collusion Communications To Be Released
posted by Daily Fodder Team on December 06, 2019
https://www.thedailyfodder.com/2019/12/breaking-judge-sides-with-judicial.html
By John Paluska, Founder of The Daily Fodder
A judge recently sided with Judicial Watch in a court proceeding that would force the FBI to comply with a FOIA request that would release secret conversations between a Barack Obama FBI/DOJ lawyer and a Former FBI lawyer now working for Hillary Clinton concerning the Russian Collusion Hoax Probe.
The judge, James E, Boasberg, rejected the argument by the FBI that Michael Sussmann, an Obama-era-DOJ-turned-Clinton lawyer, has "privilege" rights as Clinton's new attorney.
Michael Sussmann works with Perkins Coie, the firm responsible for the salacious, libelous, and thoroughly debunked Steele Dossier. While working for the FBI, he and then-FBI-Chief-Council James Baker, who played an important role in the Russia Collusion Hoax Probe had a series of conversations relating to the probe that were the subject of the Judicial Watch FOIA request. Michael Sussmann, in sworn testimony, has admitted to leaking documents to the press during the Russia Collusion Hoax Probe.
Sussmann and Baker also had multiple conversations concerning those leaked documents. However, he was also handling the investigation into the alleged DNC server hacks and also personally hired Christopher Steele. It is also speculated he acted as a "conduit" between Steele and the FBI. This means these conversations the FBI is attempting to keep buried could shine serious light on the inner workings of the Russia Collusion Hoax Probe.
Judicial Watch's court victory comes ahead of the release of Inspector General Horowitz's findings regarding the illegal actions taken by the Obama-controlled FBI to investigate President Trump during the 2016 election. The report is slated to be released this upcoming Monday, the same date Jerry Nadler quickly announced there would be the second day of the Democrat-lead Impeachment Pseudo-Debates.
In separate statements, William Barr has said there is a criminal investigation concerning the actions undertaken during the Russia Collusion Hoax Probe, and there have been reports of Deep State agents lawyering up. If Judicial Watch is able to release these conversations then there could be a real reckoning in the public's eye over Barack Obama, Democrats, the Intelligence Community, and their scheme to take down President Trump through a phony investigation based on a hoax. This could certainly help President Trump win reelection in 2020.

John Solomon: The 10 most important revelations to expect from the Russia probe FISA report
Part 2
https://johnsolomonreports.com/fbis-vetting-of-informants-like-Christopher-Steele-slammed-by-inspector-general/
News leaks as evidence
One of Horowitz's earlier investigative reports that recommended fired FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe for possible prosecution put an uncomfortable spotlight on the bureau's culture of news leaks. Since then, a handful of other cases unrelated to Russia have raised additional questions about whether the FBI uses news leaks to create or cite evidence in courts. One key to watch in the Horowitz report is the analysis of whether it was appropriate for the FBI to use a Yahoo News article as validating evidence to support Steele's dossier. We now know from testimony and court filings that Steele, his dossier and Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson played a role in that Yahoo News story. If so, was the use of the article "circular reporting" instead of independent corroboration? It's an important question for Horowitz to resolve.
Verification under the Woods Procedures
For years the FBI has been required to certify to the FISA court that all information submitted in a warrant application was "verified" under the so-called Woods Procedures. Lawmakers with access to classified information have said for months they fear a key allegation gleaned from Steele's dossier - that Carter Page had met with two senior Russian officials close to Putin in summer 2016 - was never verified when it was used as evidence in the FISA warrant. We know from Special Counsel Robert Mueller's report that those contacts alleged by Steele never happened. Horowitz should provide valuable insight on this issue.
Steele dossier heartburn
Former FBI Director James Comey has consistently testified he understood the Steele dossier to be "salacious" and "unverified" and yet the bureau submitted four "verified" warrant applications that relied on evidence from the dossier. A major question for Horowitz to answer is: who else besides Comey shared that distrust and how early did those concerns about the dossier emerge? Congressional Republicans have demanded the release of a series of email chains they claim might show FBI and DOJ officials had similar heartburn about the reliability of the document. In addition, the FBI kept a spreadsheet analyzing the claims in Steele's dossier. Sources who reviewed it have said the vast majority of the dossier's claims fell into one of three categories: debunked, could not be verified or traced to open-source intelligence typically found on the Internet.

John Solomon: The 10 most important revelations to expect from the Russia probe FISA report
Part 1
Next week Americans will finally get their most complete accounting to date of what the FBI did right and wrong in the Russia collusion investigation that probed President Trump's campaign with a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant at the end of the 2016 election.
Predicted to span more than 500 pages and 100 witness interviews, Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report Monday will provide a comprehensive catalog of what offenses, mistakes and oversights the FBI committed during one of the most politically polarizing investigations in recent history.
As such, it will serve as a non-partisan roadmap for a much longer process of holding the investigators to account, a process that now includes a criminal probe being led by U.S. Attorney John Durham and investigative hearings by Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Lindsey Graham.
In the evitable political bitterness that grips Washington, each political party will seek to score points by cherry-picking their favorite Horowitz findings. But there is a far weightier question than electoral politics to be resolved: Can the FBI be trusted going forward to adequately, fairly and honestly protect civil liberties of Americans while conducting counterintelligence, counterterrorism and criminal investigations.
With that bigger question in mind, here are the 10 revelations I believe will be most important in the Horowitz report.
The scope of failure and misconduct
Were there isolated mistakes, systemic cultural and procedural failures or intentional acts involved in the investigation, the pursuit of the FISA warrant against ex-Trump adviser Carter Page and the renewal of the FISA warrant for more than a year? I expect the Horowitz report to identify between six and 12 failures, mistakes and acts of misconduct. These will range from the serious offense of altering a government document to failures to provide the courts evidence and information required under the FISA process. The large number of problems, if confirmed, should be a wakeup call to the FBI and those who provide oversight of its activities.
Exculpatory evidence withheld
The issue of whether the FBI failed to tell the FISA judges, as required, about evidence of innocence concerning some of the Americans it targeted has been raised for more than a year by key members of Congress like Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Ca., and Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C. I expect the IG to identify exculpatory statements made by key figure George Papadopoulos to an undercover informant that were not properly disclosed to the court. A second revelation to watch is whether the FBI possessed similar evidence of innocence involving Page that was not disclosed.
Derogatory information about informant Christopher Steele
The FBI stated to the court in a footnote that it was unaware of any derogatory information about the former MI6 agent it was using as "confidential human source 1" in the Russia case. This claim could face a withering analysis in the report. Congressional sources have reported to me that during a recent unclassified meeting they were told the British government flagged concerns about Steele and his reliance on "sub-sources" of intelligence as early as 2015. Bruce Ohr testified he told FBI and DOJ officials early on that he suspected Steele's intelligence was mostly raw and needed vetting, that Steele was working with Hillary Clinton's campaign in some capacity and appeared desperate to defeat Trump in the 2016 election. And documents show State Department official Kathleen Kavalec alerted the FBI eight days before the first FISA warrant was obtained that Steele may have been peddling a now-debunked rumor that Trump and Vladimir Putin were secretly communicating through a Russian bank's computer server. Most experts I talked with say each of these revelations might constitute derogatory information that should be disclosed to the court. On a related note, Horowitz just released a separate report that concluded the FBI is doing a poor job of vetting informants like Steele, suggesting there was a culture of withholding derogatory information from informants' reliability and credibility validation reports. You can read about that here.

Sen. Mark Warner Traded Secret Texts with Russian Oligarch's Lobbyist Linked to Hillary
"The top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee communicated through phone calls and text messages last spring with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch in order to gain access to Christopher Steele, the former British spy who wrote the salacious and unverified anti-Trump dossier.
Senator Mark Warner (D-Va.) texted back and forth with lobbyist Adam Waldman, who runs the Endeavor Group – which has ties to (surprise!) Hillary Clinton – while leading the Senate Intelligence Committee's investigation into President Trump's alleged ties to Russia with his Republican colleague North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr.
In one text to the lobbyist, the senator expressed a desire to "not have a paper trail" of his messages. He suggested in another text that he did not want Burr or any other senator included in the discussions.
Waldman signed a $40,000 monthly retainer in 2009 and 2010 to lobby the U.S. government on behalf of Russian billionaire Oleg V. Deripaska."

Former Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta was one of Fusion GPS's "most helpful" resources in an effort to raise money after the 2016 election to continue investigating President Donald Trump, the co-founders of the opposition research firm revealed in a book released on Nov. 26.
Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch, the co-founders of Fusion GPS, wrote in "Crime in Progress" that Podesta provided welcome support in early 2017 for an effort to raise money to fund The Democracy Integrity Project (TDIP), a nonprofit group former Senate Intelligence Committee staffer Daniel Jones created on Jan. 31, 2017.
Podesta agreed during a meeting with Simpson in early 2017 to contact potential donors to help arrange meetings with Fusion GPS and Jones, according to the book.
"In mid-February [2017] and then again in early March, Jones - supported by Fritsch and Simpson - took prospecting trips in the West. They didn't know the tech community well, so before heading out, they sought some door openers and validators from the world they knew best," the authors wrote.
"One of the most helpful" resources turned out to be Podesta, according to Simpson and Fritsch.
"Podesta agreed to contact some friends out west on Jones's behalf and told him to drop his name in talks with other potential supporters," they said. "It was a brave gesture: He could have easily chosen to stay out of it altogether, given the fact that he had served as Hillary Clinton's campaign manager."
The Fusion GPS book provides the most detailed account to date of the Simpson-Podesta meeting, which The New York Times first reported on Nov. 10, 2017. The book also raises questions about what Podesta knew of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Clinton campaign funding the dossier.
Podesta reportedly told the Senate Intelligence Committee in October 2017 that he did not know who paid Fusion GPS to investigate Trump. Days after Podesta's interview, news outlets reported that Perkins Coie, the law firm for the Clinton campaign and DNC, was the Fusion GPS client. Marc Elias, the Perkins Coie partner who hired Fusion, represented Podesta in the Senate interview.
Simpson met with Jones just after Trump's inauguration on Jan. 20, 2017 and briefed him on Fusion's work during the campaign, according to Simpson and Fritsch. Jones eagerly agreed to continue the investigation and formed TDIP on Jan. 31, 2017.
Jones told the FBI in March 2017 about his partnership with Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele, a former British spy who wrote the anti-Trump dossier. Jones said the consortium had secured $50 million in funding from between seven and 10 wealthy donors in California and New York, according to a summary of his FBI interview.
Jones told the FBI that the group planned to provide information to lawmakers, government investigators and the media.
Simpson and Fritsch do not identify TDIP's donors in the book, but a spokesman for George Soros told The NYT in 2018 that the billionaire financier gave $1 million to TDIP in 2017. A nonprofit group called Fund for a Better Future contributed about $2.1 million to TDIP.
TDIP paid more than $3.3 million to Fusion GPS and more than $250,000 to Steele in 2017, according to the group's tax returns.

Steele distributed other dossier reports, including one to an oligarch's lawyer
Just before Christmas 2015, the British intelligence operative Christopher Steele emailed a report to private clients that included an American lawyer for a Ukrainian oligarch.
The title of the dossier was "FIRTASH Abortive Return to Ukraine," and it purported to provide intelligence on why the energy oligarch Dmitri Firtash tried, but failed, to return to his home country of Ukraine.
"FIRTASH's talk of returning to Ukraine a genuine ambition rather than merely a ruse to reveal Ukrainian government's hand. However the oligarch developed cold feet upon the news of a negative reception at Boryspil airport," Steele reported on Dec. 23, 2015.
Perhaps most important to the recipients, the former MI6 agent's report purported to share the latest thinking of Russian and U.S. officials on Firtash, who at the time faced U.S. criminal charges and was awaiting extradition from Austria.
Those charges and extradition remain unresolved four years later. Firtash insists on his innocence, while the U.S. government stands by it case despite recent criticism from Austrian and Spanish authorities.
"The prevarication over his return has lost FIRTASH credibility with the Russians, but his precarious position in Austria leaves him little choice but to acquiesce with Moscow's demands," the Steele report claimed. "Separate American sources confirm that US Government regards FIRTASH as a conduit for Russian influence and he remains a pariah to the Americans."
The anecdote of the Firtash report underscores that challenges the FBI faced when it used Steele in 2016 as a human source in the Russia collusion probe.
He not only opposed Trump and was paid by Hillary Clinton's opposition research firm to dig up dirt on the then-GOP nominee, he also was in the business of selling intelligence to private clients - all perfectly legal - while informing for the FBI.
Steele had engaged the U.S. government on occasion since his retirement from MI6 in 2009, both as an FBI informant in the FIFA soccer corruption case and as intelligence provider to the Obama State Department. So any assessment he offered from U.S. officials was closely watched by private clients.
His Firtash report cited an unnamed intelligence source indicating that Firtash had little chance of winning any favor under the Obama administration, but that other oligarchs in the region might be welcomed by the Americans if they sought to play a role in Ukraine.
"The source had a separate confirmation from US sources that Washington regarded FIRTASH as a conduit for Russian influence," the report said. "Whilst the USG was prepared to do business with the likes of Rinat AKHMETOV and Ihor KOLOMOISKY, FIRTASH remained a pariah."
The U.S. lawyer who received Steele's report represented Firtash and had spent part of 2015 checking whether there was an opportunity the State or Justice Department might negotiate to settle the criminal case against his client. He determined the U.S. government did not, something Steele's report only affirmed anew.

Hunter Biden, 45, a former Washington lobbyist, joined the Burisma board in April 2014. That month, as part of an investigation into money laundering, British officials froze London bank accounts containing $23 million that allegedly belonged to Mr. Zlochevsky.
"In the case of former Ecology Minister Mykola Zlochevsky, the U.K. authorities had seized $23 million in illicit assets that belonged to the Ukrainian people," Mr. Pyatt said. Officials at the prosecutor general's office, he added, were asked by the United Kingdom "to send documents supporting the seizure. Instead they sent letters to Zlochevsky's attorneys attesting that there was no case against him. As a result, the money was freed by the U.K. court, and shortly thereafter the money was moved to Cyprus."

Emails: Open Society Kept Alleged 'Whistleblower' Eric Ciaramella Updated on George Soros's Personal Ukraine Activities
Eric Ciaramella, whom Real Clear Investigations suggests is the likely so-called whistleblower, received emails about Ukraine policy from a top director at George Soros's Open Society Foundations.
The emails informed Ciaramella and a handful of other Obama administration foreign policy officials about Soros's whereabouts, the contents of Soros's private meetings about Ukraine and a future meeting the billionaire activist was holding with the prime minister of Ukraine.
A primary recipient of the Open Society emails along with Ciaramella was then-Assistant Secretary of State for European Affairs Victoria Nuland, who played a central role in the anti-Trump dossier affair. Nuland, with whom Ciaramella worked closely, received updates on Ukraine issues from dossier author Christopher Steele in addition to her direct role in facilitating the dossier within the Obama administration.
The emails spotlight Soros's access to national security officials under the Obama administration on the matter of Ukraine.

-S.N.U.B.: Spygate-Netanyahu-Ukraine-Brexit - It's Time for the West to Outlaw George Soros' Open Society-
11-24-19
'What used to be shrugged off as just another crazy conspiracy theory has become too overwhelmingly evident to deny: Billionaire investor George Soros and his Open Society Foundation have become a supranational non-state power that topples governments and threatens the workings of democracy. Open Society must be declared a hostile foreign agent.
Former National Security Council member Fiona Hill raised eyebrows on Capitol Hill this week by calling the investigations into Ukrainian interference in the 2016 elections "a fictional narrative". George Soros' favorite newspaper The Guardian chimed in that "Some Republicans on the intelligence committee have pushed a discredited conspiracy theory, embraced by Trump and amplified by conservative media, that Ukraine, rather than Russia, meddled in the last election."
The fact that Ukrainians like MP Serhiy Leschenko and Ukrainian-American DNC operative Alexandra Chalupa sought to influence the 2016 elections is well-documented by reporting by John Solomon, Politico and even a Ukrainian court verdict. Gateway Pundit unveiled the connection to George Soros' Open Society and the Democratic National Committee in April. Naturally, neither The Guardian nor Fiona Hill offered any evidence for their claims.
Independent conservative media quickly revealed a possible explanation for Fiona Hill's outrageous act of contempt of Congress: Hill was a member of the board of Soros's Open Society Institute from 2000-2006 on Russian and European affairs, as her CV at the Brookings Institute shows, and also admitted to having worked with the author of the Russia "dossier" Christopher Steele, commissioned by opposition research firm Fusion GPS and paid for by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
Speaking to Alex Jones in 2017, former Trump adviser Roger Stone said: "George Soros has penetrated the Trump White House. Soros has planted a mole infiltrating the national security apparatus - a woman named Fiona Hill, who has a Harvard background, has been on the Soros payroll and the payroll of the Open Society Institute".

Larry C. Johnson: Here is What the Horowitz Report Should Conclude
You do not have to wait for the Horowitz report. I can give you a preview of what he should have found if he conducted an honest audit. The following is not my opinion. It is based on the flood of information that has come out over the past two and a half-years surrounding the plot to destroy the Presidency of Donald Trump. When you read these facts it is easy to understand how dishonest and corrupt the FBI were in presenting a FISA application to spy on Carter Page. Helen Keller could see this is wrong.
Let me take you through this piece-by-piece (except where noted I am quoting from the first FISA application).
Let's start with the FBI claim that Carter Page was an "agent of a foreign government."
The target of this application is Carter Page, a U.S. person, and an agent of a foreign power, described in detail below. The status of the target was determined in or about October 2016 from information provided by the U.S. Department of State.
What information did State supply? Information provided by the notorious Christopher Steele. The Washington Examiner's Daniel Chaitin reported on this in May 2019:
Steele met Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec on Oct. 11, 2016, 10 days before the first warrant application was submitted, and admitted he was encouraged by a client, the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, to get his research out before the 2016 election on Nov. 8, signaling a possible political motivation. The meeting was described in notes taken by Kavalec that were obtained by conservative group Citizens United through open-records litigation. The notes show that Kavalec believed at least some of Steele's allegations to be false.
Government officials told the Hill that Kavalec informed FBI Special Agent Stephen Laycock about the meeting in an email eight days before the FISA warrant application was filed. Laycock, then the FBI's section chief for Eurasian counterintelligence, quickly forwarded what he learned to Peter Strzok, the special agent who was leading the Trump-Russia investigation.
There it is. Not an assumption. A fact. State passed a false report from Christopher Steele to the FBI and the FBI ran with it. A competent FBI Agent would have asked about the identity of the source of the information. Either the FBI failed to do this or it lied in the FISA application. The FBI had a responsibility to note that Steele was the sole source for the claim that Page was an "agent of a foreign power."
The application reiterates its basis for this assertion:
This application targets Carter Page. The FBI believes Page has been the subject of targeted recruitment by the Russian Government to undermine and influence the outcome of the 2016 U.S. Presidential election in violation of U.S. criminal law.
This is based on the false report from Christopher Steele as well as "cooked" intelligence provided by CIA Director Brennan. Brennan was passing off a low level Russian bureaucrat as a high level source with direct access to Putin. That was a lie.

Fusion GPS Book Sheds Light On Former British Spy Chief's 2016 Meeting With Christopher Steele
A book coming out Nov. 26 will shed light on interactions in 2016 between dossier author Christopher Steele and Sir Richard Dearlove, the former chief of British intelligence who has close ties to alleged FBI informant Stefan Halper.
In "Crime in Progress," Fusion GPS founders Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch wrote that Dearlove surprised Steele during a meeting in London in December 2016 with information that the British government "had suspicions about links between Russia and members of the Trump campaign."
Dearlove has largely avoided scrutiny in Russiagate despite his connections to Steele and Stefan Halper, the alleged FBI informant.
Dearlove and Halper in February 2014 hosted a private dinner at Cambridge for Michael Flynn, who then served as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency.

DOJ watchdog expected to say FBI erred, but absolve top leaders of anti-Trump bias: report
A Justice Department watchdog is expected to strongly criticize FBI officials for being careless in their pursuit of obtaining wiretaps on a former Trump campaign aide during the start of the Russia probe, but not find they were acting with a bias toward President Trump, The New York Times reported Friday afternoon.
But the highly anticipated report from the Department of Justice inspector general (IG) is also expected to say top agency leaders did not act with a bias toward against President Trump in terms of how they undertook the probe.
In particular, the DOJ IG, Michael Horowitz, faulted Kevin Clinesmith, a lower-level lawyer, for altering an email that bureau officials then incorporated in their effort to renew a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant on Carter Page.
The DOJ watchdog has referred his findings about Clinesmith, who resigned two months ago, to prosecutors for a potential criminal charge, the Times reported.
Horowitz also reportedly found omissions and errors in documents seeking the wiretap for Page, who had served previously on the Trump campaign and was suspected of working as an unregistered foreign agent in 2016.
And while the Times reports that Horowitz will sharply rebuke the top brass at the FBI over their handling of the counterintelligence probe - which was examining whether members of the Trump campaign coordinated with Russia- his investigation did not find that anti-Trump bias among senior leaders like former FBI director James Comey, deputy director Andrew McCabe, and former counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok influenced the investigation.
While the report, set to be publicly released Dec. 9, appears to confirm long-held GOP allegations that officials did not follow the proper protocols in obtaining the Page FISA warrant, the report also disputes their allegations that individuals like Comey, McCabe and Strzok acted on biases towards the president.
Horowitz's report also debunks claims that the so-called Steele dossier compiled by the former British spy Christopher Steele was used by officials to launch the investigation, as well as allegations that some of the information came from the CIA officials.
Democrats and Republicans are likely to seize on different parts of the report, particularly at a time when House Democrats' impeachment inquiry is looming over the Trump administration.
The FBI obtained a FISA warrant on Page in October of 2016 and renewed the wiretap three subsequent times.
And during one of those renewal processes, Clinesmith is said to have altered an email from an official working at another federal agency by adding his own personal assertion to a message laying out several factual assertions, allowing his view point to appear as if was the author of the email rather than his own, the Times reports.
This manipulated email was then added into a group of documents Clinesmith compiled for another FBI official to read ahead of them signing an affidavit that is given to the surveillance court, which attests under the penalty of perjury that the information in the wiretap application is both "true and correct."
Clinesmith, who worked on both the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email server and the Russia probe, was removed from special counsel Robert Mueller's team after Horowitz discovered text messages sent from officials that disparaged Trump.
Horowitz's referral has reportedly been sent to Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham, who was assigned by Attorney General William Barr to probe the origins of the Russia investigation. The referral suggests that Durham's inquiry could turn into a criminal investigation.

IG REPORT COMING
https://johnsolomonreports.com/fbis-vetting-of-informants-like-Christopher-Steele-slammed-by-inspector-general/
The former British spy Christopher Steele and his now infamous Russia collusion dossier became a powerful reminder that the FBI often relies on confidential human sources, or informants, to make cases. And investigations are only as good as the information fed to agents.
It turns out, according to a stinging new report by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz, that the FBI has done a poor job over the last decade vetting informants for their credibility and reliability and documenting "red flags" when warranted.
Horowitz rebuked the bureau in a report released this week for failing to follow Justice Department procedures in vetting informants and allowing for a lengthy backlog of required validation reports about the reliability and credibility of long-term confidential human sources (CHS).
The internal watchdog found "significant weaknesses," including inadequate resources dedicated inside the FBI to vet informants, artificial limits on long-term reviews that did not consider the full five years of work of an informant and a poorly designed electronic records system.
"These factors increased the likelihood that the FBI has not adequately mitigated the risks associated with long-term CHSs, including the risks posed by overly familiar and non-objective handling agents and CHS relationships," Horowitz warned.
The most troubling revelation in the report, however, may be that some of the FBI analysts used to vet informants complained they were "discouraged from documenting conclusions and recommendations" about an informant's credibility or reliability.
One analyst, for instance, reported being told not to document a request to polygraph a suspect informant. And multiple FBI officials admitted efforts to keep the validation reports of informants void of derogatory information because FBI "field office do not want negative information documented" that could aid defense lawyers or stop informants from becoming government witnesses at trial.
Such behavior "may have increased the likelihood that red flags or anomalies were omitted" about long-term informants, the 63-page report warned. Such concerns were widely held.
For instance, one member of a joint Justice Department-FBI committee known as the HSRC that approved long-term informants' service reported being "deeply concerned that the limited scope of the long-term validation review may potentially be omitting important information or critical red flags."
The report also included one very important piece on the FBI's reliance on informants: it showed the bureau spends an average of about $42 million a year on them.
This IG report did not mention Steele, arguably the FBI's most famous informant of recent years.
But Horowitz is expected to release a massive report next month on possible failures and abuses by the FBI in the Russia collusion investigation, including efforts to use Steele's dossier to help secure a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant to surveil a former Trump campaign adviser.
The FBI's reliance on Steele has raised significant public concerns, including that he was being paid to do his work to find dirt on Trump by the opposition research firm for Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee, had expressed a bias against Trump and had been leaking to the news media while working for the FBI. His source relationship was ended because of the latter concern.
In addition, an FBI spreadsheet created to validate Steele's allegations against Trump found most of the information in the dossier to be unconfirmed, debunked or simply open source information found on the Internet, sources have told me.
The latest IG report shows the Steele episode may ultimately be viewed as part of a larger systemic issue with the FBI's handling of one of its most important investigative resources: confidential human sources or informants.

The DOJ will release a cache of FBI documents early next week related to Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, who - along with his CIA-linked wife Nellie, had extensive interactions with Christopher Steele during the period in which the FBI was using the former British spy's fabricated dossier against the Trump campaign.
In a court filing submitted last Thursday, Justice Department lawyers said the agency will provide FBI notes of interviews conducted with Ohr to Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group that sued for the records last year.
Justice Department lawyers said the agency had initially determined that the Ohr transcripts, known as 302s, should be withheld in full. But "after further review in conjunction with DOJ's preparation of its motion for summary judgment, DOJ has decided to release the requested records in part to Plaintiff," the lawyers said.
"DOJ will make this release to Plaintiff by August 5, 2019." -Daily Caller
According to the Daily Caller's Chuck Ross, Judicial Watch filed suit on September 10 for a dozen 302 reports - which are summaries of FBI interviews with suspects or witnesses. The lawsuit sought reports compiled between November 22, 2016 and May 15, 2017.
Last August, emails turned over to Congressional investigators revealed that Bruce Ohr was Steele's conduit to the Obama administration - as Ohr was the #4 DOJ official at the time and reported to former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates.
Steele and the Ohrs would have breakfast together on July 30, 2016 at the Mayflower Hotel in downtown Washington D.C., while Steele turned in installments of his infamous "dossier" on July 19 and 26. The breakfast also occurred one day before the FBI formally launched operation "Crossfire Hurricane," the agency's counterintelligence operation into the Trump campaign.
Steele was under contract by opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which the Clinton campaign hired to dig up dirt on Donald Trump. Notably, Bruce Ohr was demoted twice after the DOJ's Inspector General discovered that he lied about his involvement with Fusion GPS boss Glenn Simpson.
FBI investigators had tasked Ohr to serve as an unofficial backchannel to Steele as part of the bureau's investigation of the Trump campaign's possible ties to Russia. The FBI cut ties with Steele on Nov. 1, 2016, after learning that he had unauthorized contacts with the media about his work as an FBI informant. -Daily Caller
Also interesting is that Bruce Ohr told Congressional investigators that his wife Nellie - a Russia expert who speaks fluent Russian, passed Bruce research conducted during her employment with Fusion GPS.
Republican lawmakers have suggested that the 302 reports could undercut Steele's credibility - along with that of his largely unproven or discredited dossier.

+++ Theory regarding the Use of "Concrete" in Obama, Killary, Pope tweets +++
As Killary and Obama had codenames like EVERGREEN and RENEGADE, so do minor people in the agencies.
Christopher Steele was always called CONCRETE, because Concrete&Steel, sounds like Steele, the British and their humour.
So whenever they were calling for a "Concrete Solution" what they meant was Steele to give them dirt to stop Trump from drying up their child supply lines.
Concrete = Steele.
the later the game and the worse the position, Steele transformed also from an asset into a liability. So further "Concrete" measures could indicate they want to get rid of him. He is a loose end.

Ran across an article I had missed from Conservative Treehouse.
Says Nellie Ohr is the REAL author/researcher of the Steele Dossier.
Nellie researches/contacts Russians via her CIA contacts (she is CIA, afterall), gets the info to Christopher Steele, making it a foreign intel doc, and then it is funneled to her hubby Bruce Ohr, who gives it to FBI group of co-conspirators.
THIS is why DS want to block release of classified intel.

DOJ To Release Bruce Ohr Documents 'Imminently'
The Justice Department will release FBI documents early next week that are related to Bruce Ohr, the Justice Department official who met with dossier author Christopher Steele. In a court filing submitted last Thursday, Justice Department lawyers said the agency will provide FBI notes of interviews conducted with Ohr to Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group that sued for the records last year.
Justice Department lawyers said the agency had initially determined that the Ohr transcripts, known as 302s, should be withheld in full. But "after further review in conjunction with DOJ's preparation of its motion for summary judgment, DOJ has decided to release the requested records in part to Plaintiff," the lawyers said. "DOJ will make this release to Plaintiff by August 5, 2019." It is not clear what documents will be released and which might be withheld. Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton announced Thursday night that the documents would be released "imminently."
Judicial Watch sued on Sept. 10 for a dozen 302s the FBI compiled between Nov. 22, 2016, and May 15, 2017. FBI agents interviewed Ohr after meetings and conversations with Steele, a former British spy who investigated the Trump campaign on behalf of the Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee. FBI investigators had tasked Ohr to serve as an unofficial backchannel to Steele as part of the bureau's investigation of the Trump campaign's possible ties to Russia. The FBI cut ties with Steele on Nov. 1, 2016, after learning that he had unauthorized contacts with the media about his work as an FBI informant. Steele and Fusion GPS, the firm that hired him, provided information from the dossier to numerous reporters during the 2016 campaign.
Congressional Republicans had pushed President Trump to declassify and release the Ohr 302s along with other documents related to the Russia probe. Trump said for months that he would declassify the documents, but on May 23, he outsourced declassification authority to Attorney General William Barr. Republicans have hinted that the 302s contain information that could undercut Steele's credibility, as well as the dossier's. Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz is investigating whether the FBI misled the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) Court in applications for spy warrants on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. The bureau relied heavily on Steele's reporting to obtain the wiretaps.
Ohr, whose wife worked as a contractor for Fusion GPS, has told Congress that Steele said to him during one meeting that he was desperate to see Trump lose the 2016 election. Republicans say that the FBI did not disclose that fact in applications to wiretap Page. The FBI also did not disclose that the Clinton campaign and DNC had funded Steele's dossier. Ohr and Steele had known each other for years before the began meeting to discuss the Trump investigation. They first met on that topic on July 30, 2016, in Washington, D.C. After the meeting, Ohr briefed then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe about Steele's work.
Steele met on Aug. 22, 2016, with Glenn Simpson, the founder of Fusion GPS. Republican investigators have wondered why Steele and Simpson passed information to Ohr, when Steele already had a contact at the FBI. Steele gave some of his early dossier memos to FBI agent Michael Gaeta during a meeting in Rome on July 5, 2016.

James Comey Admits Steele Dossier Unverified Months After FISA Warrant Granted
The transcript of former FBI Director James Comey's closed-door Friday interview with the House Judiciary Committee was released Saturday. An admission by the fired deep-stater appears to confirm a belief Republican investigators have held since President Donald Trump was elected to the White House: The FBI failed to adequately verify the anti-Trump dossier used to surveil Trump campaign members during the 2016 presidential election.
Comey told investigators that the anti-Trump dossier authored by longtime British intelligence agent Christopher Steele was largely unverified before and after a FISA warrant was obtained to surveil Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, according to a report.

Reports: James Comey Is Torched In The Department Of Justice's IG Report On Obama-Era FISA Abuses
Former FBI Director James Comey may have escaped charges for leaking classified information to the public, but that doesn't mean he won't be torched by the pending inspector general report from the Department of Justice. It once again shoots a hole right through the Democrats' ongoing Trump impeachment narrative that is rapidly falling apart. Russian collusion was outright killed by the report filed by ex-Special Counsel Robert Mueller, as it debunked the already unverified Trump dossier compiled by ex-MI6 spy Christopher Steele. Fusion GPS hired him. And they were contracted by the Hillary Clinton campaign to get dirt of Trump. This document is the epicenter of the Trump-Russia collusion myth. Still, this report tried very hard to prove Russian collusion, but there is simply zero evidence to prove it. Period.
The flip side is the so-called obstruction of justice that occurred, with Comey's firing in2017 being a major date in the minds of liberals. Despite repeated examples that Comey was fired for cause, the Left continues to push this impeachment nonsense. Where things get dicey for liberals is how the Obama DOJ used the Steele dossier to reportedly secure a FISA spy warrant against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. John Solomon at The Hill has more:
Inspector General (IG) Michael Horowitz's team referred Comey for possible prosecution under the classified information protection laws, but Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors working for Attorney General William Barr reportedly have decided to decline prosecution - a decision that's likely to upset Comey's conservative critics.
Prosecutors found the IG's findings compelling but decided not to bring charges because they did not believe they had enough evidence of Comey's intent to violate the law, according to multiple sources.
Although a technical violation, the DOJ did not want to "make its first case against the Russia investigators with such thin margins and look petty and vindictive," a source told me, explaining the DOJ's rationale.
But Comey and others inside the FBI and the DOJ during his tenure still face legal jeopardy in ongoing probes by the IG and Barr-appointed special prosecutor John Durham. Those investigations are focused on the origins of the Russia investigation that included a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant targeting the Trump campaign at the end of the 2016 election, the source said.
The lack of prosecution is certain to demoralize some conservatives, who long have called for Comey's head. But the IG report, set to be released within the next few weeks, likely will provide significant condemnations of Comey's conduct, sources tell me.

DEVELOPING: Key Bruce Ohr 302 FBI Reports on His Contacts with Christopher Steele to be Released to Judicial Watch Imminently
Once again Judicial Watch is doing the heavy lifting.
Judicial Watch boss Tom Fitton announced Thursday afternoon that the FBI will be handing over Bruce 302 reports on his contacts with dossier author Christopher Steele.
Fitton said the release of the documents is imminent.
"BREAKING: FBI Will Produce Bruce Ohr 302 reports on his contacts with Clinton-DNC-FBI spy Christopher Steele to Judicial Watch," Tom Fitton said.
BREAKING: FBI Will Produce Bruce Ohr 302 reports on his contacts with Clinton-DNC-FBI spy Christopher Steele to @JudicialWatch. @RealDonaldTrump https://t.co/Lw3SCtx8xL
- Tom Fitton (@TomFitton) August 1, 2019
Judicial Watch currently has a total of five lawsuits pursuing information on twice-demoted DOJ official Bruce Ohr.
Bruce Ohr was a top official in the DOJ working as an Assistant Deputy Attorney General and was ultimately demoted twice for his connection to Christopher Steele and for promoting the phony dossier.
Bruce Ohr's wife Nellie Ohr was contracted by oppo research firm Fusion GPS to "assist in cultivation of opposition research on Trump" and her hubby Bruce passed along her Hillary Clinton/DNC-funded dirt to the FBI.
The phony Hillary-funded dossier was eventually used to obtain a FISA warrant on Trump campaign advisor Carter Page.
Judicial Watch filed the lawsuit (Judicial Watch v. U.S. Department of Justice (No.1:18-cv-00490)) on March 1, 2018, after the DOJ failed to respond to a December 7, 2017, FOIA request for:
All records of contact or communication, including but not limited to emails, text messages, and instant chats between Bruce Ohr and any of the following individuals/entities: former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele; owner of Fusion GPS Glenn Simpson; and any other employees or representatives of Fusion GPS.
All travel requests, authorizations and expense reports for Bruce Ohr.
All calendar entries for Bruce Ohr.
Judicial Watch filed suit for details of the "302" reports from the FBI interview with Ohr. The interviews could be key to understanding how anti-Trump dossier author, British spy Christopher Steele's information was transmitted to the FBI. (Judicial Watch v U.S. Department of Justice (No. 1:18-cv-02107)). The House Intelligence Committee memo released by Chairman Devin Nunes on February 2 says that his wife, Nellie Ohr, was "employed by Fusion GPS to assist in the cultivation of opposition research on Trump" and that Bruce Ohr passed the results of that research, which was paid for by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Hillary Clinton campaign, to the FBI.
The Gateway Pundit will update as soon as the documents are released.

Grassley says Pentagon failed to meet demand for info on contracts with FBI informant Stefan Halper
The Defense Department missed a top Republican lawmaker's deadline to provide information about an FBI informant who was a source for the bureau's Trump-Russia investigation during the 2016 election cycle. Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley wrote to then-acting Defense Secretary Mark Esper earlier this month seeking details about contracts the Defense Department's Office of Net Assessment had with Stefan Halper, a former Republican operative and White House aide who became a foreign policy academic with close ties to both American and British intelligence.
During the 2016 presidential campaign, Halper had discussions with at least three Trump campaign members: foreign policy aides George Papadopoulos and Carter Page as well as Trump campaign co-chairman Sam Clovis. The New York Times reported in April that the Justice Department inspector general was looking into his actions to see if he exceeded the scope of his assignment. Grassley's letter, which cited concerns about whether the defense contracts "were used to support potential partisan political or other improper or wasteful activities," set a July 25 deadline. And while the Defense Department responded to the Iowa Republican's demand, Grassley's office said the department's response was inadequate. "Senator Grassley received a response from DoD regarding his request for more information on the steps DoD has taken to address contract oversight and management failures that the DoD IG identified during a review of Stefan Halper's contracts. DoD's response failed to address the questions detailed in his original letter. Senator Grassley has reiterated to DoD that they must address all of his questions in writing and provide the requested documentation," Grassley said in a statement shared with the Washington Examiner on Tuesday. A Defense Department representative confirmed receipt of Grassley's request and told the Washington Examiner, "As with all congressional correspondence, we will respond directly to the request."
Grassley's letter was a follow-up to a Defense Department inspector general audit, which he requested, of $1.05 million worth of contracts with Halper between 2012 and 2018 to complete studies related to Chinese military strategy, China's economy, and "the prospect of Russian-Chinese collaboration against the United States." Noting how the audit said ONA was unable to provide "sufficient" documentation on Halper's work and travel expenses, which the watchdog found was commonplace for similar contracts, Grassley wrote the audit "revealed significant flaws in ONA's contract management and oversight process that clearly indicate ONA's internal controls over taxpayer-funded work are weak or non-existent." Grassley demanded the Defense Department explain steps taken to address the inspector general's recommendations and ONA to provide a briefing to his committee's staff on the Halper contracts.
Grassley's request for an audit followed a Washington Times report in the fall of 2018 about a Pentagon strategist who was stripped of his security clearance after he complained to superiors about dubious contracts given to Halper. The report said the ONA strategist, Adam Lovinger, was a supporter of President Trump, and in an ethics complaint, his attorney said Lovinger warned his superiors about "sweetheart" deals for Halper and for a "best friend" of Chelsea Clinton, who is the daughter of former President Bill Clinton and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. Halper was the director of American studies in the department of politics and international studies at Cambridge University, where he worked for years alongside Sir Richard Dearlove, who had spent decades with MI6 including as its director from 1999 to 2004.
Christopher Steele, who was hired by the Clinton campaign-funded opposition research firm Fusion GPS and was the author of the Trump dossier used in Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act applications to target Carter Page, was in MI6 from 1987 until 2009. Dearlove has described Steele as the "go-to person on Russia in the commercial sector" and said his reputation is "superb." Inspector General Horowitz is investigating allegations of FISA abuse and is expected to release his report after Labor Day.

Liberal Watchdog Group That Targeted Google And Devin Nunes Paid Fusion GPS $140K For Research
A liberal watchdog group that has investigated the Trump administration, Republican lawmakers like California Rep. Devin Nunes and Google paid Fusion GPS nearly $140,000 last year, according to tax documents filed with the Internal Revenue Service.
The payment, by Campaign for Accountability (CfA), was for research on an unknown project.
Fusion GPS is best known for its work with Christopher Steele, the former British spy who authored a dossier alleging a vast conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russian government. Perkins Coie, the law firm that represented the Clinton campaign and DNC, paid Fusion GPS more than $1 million for the project. Fusion also conducts research and provides media outreach on behalf of corporate clients, law firms and activist groups such as Planned Parenthood.
CfA was formed in 2015 by several former employees of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), another liberal watchdog group. The group describes itself as a "nonpartisan, nonprofit watchdog organization that uses research, litigation, and aggressive communications to expose misconduct and malfeasance in public life."
CfA's $138,684 payment to Fusion GPS was for work as an independent contractor, according to CfA's Form 990 filing. The document does not reveal the date of payment, and CfA's donors are not disclosed.
Two of CfA's main targets in the Trump administration were Alex Azar, the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, and Scott Pruitt, the former administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. The watchdog filed multiple ethics complaints against the pair.
Its two biggest congressional targets are both Republicans.
Republican Idaho Sen. Mike Crapo was hit with several complaints over alleged campaign funding issues. CfA filed three ethics complaints last year against Nunes, the top Republican on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI).
One of the complaints, filed on Jan. 25, 2018 with the Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE), accused Nunes of leaking confidential information about Fusion GPS and its founders' testimony before HPSCI.

UK 'up to its neck' in Russiagate affair, says George Galloway, as secret texts reveal British role
While hysteria raged about possible Russian "interference" in the 2016 US election, British intelligence officials were secretly playing a "key role" in helping instigate investigations into Donald Trump, secret texts have shown.
"Turns out it was Britain that was the foreign country interfering in American affairs," former MP George Galloway told RT, speaking about the new revelations published by the Guardian about early British involvement in the 'Russiagate' investigation.
The Guardian reported on texts between former deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe and Jeremy Fleming, his then counterpart at MI5, who now heads GCHQ. The two men met in 2016 to discuss "our strange situation" - an apparent reference to Russia's alleged interference in US domestic politics.
British intelligence "appears to have played a key role in the early stages," the report said.
Galloway said the revelation was not surprising because people "already knew" that British intelligence had played a part in the Russia-related investigations in the US. He recalled that it was former British spy Christopher Steele who drew up the now-infamous Steele dossier, which made multiple unverifiable and salacious claims about Trump and has since been largely discredited. Britain is "up to its neck in the whole Russiagate affair," he said.
The texts also reveal that the Brexit vote was viewed by some in the FBI as something that had been influenced by Russia.
Asked what the UK stood to gain by trying to implicate Russia in a US election scandal at a time when then-foreign secretary Boris Johnson was dismissing baseless claims of Russian interference in the Brexit campaign, Galloway noted that Johnson's comments on Russia have appeared to strangely sway between friendly and antagonistic.
Johnson is like "a sofa that bears the impression of the last person to sit upon him," the former MP quipped. What happens next will depend on who is leading the tango, "the orange man in Washington or the blonde mop-head in London."
n June 2016, the FBI opened a covert investigation codenamed 'Crossfire Hurricane' into Trump's now disproven collusion with Moscow, which was later taken over by special counsel Robert Mueller.
Ultimately, the two-year-long probe that followed came up short, producing no evidence to prove a conspiracy or collusion between Trump campaign officials and Russia.

New threat to Anglo-Trump relations as bombshell secret texts between top British and US spies about 'our strange situation' reveal how UK played KEY role in early stages of FBI's Trump-Russia inquiry
Texts between then-FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe and his counterpart in Britain's MI5, Jeremy Fleming, were brought to light by the Guardian on Tuesday
In August 2016 Fleming noted that members of the FBI and MI5 had 'met on our strange situation' - apparently referencing discussions about Russian activities
The texts were revealed as the Justice Department is examining what led up to the launch of the FBI investigation
They are believed to be paying particularly close attention to the influence of another senior UK intelligence official, 'dirty dossier' author Christopher Steele
Earlier this month the US and UK became embroiled in a full-scale diplomatic spat after British ambassador to the US Sir Kim Darroch called Trump 'inept'
They are believed to be paying particularly close attention to the influence of another senior British intelligence official, Christopher Steele.
Steele, a former senior official at the UK's foreign intelligence agency MI6, compiled the infamous 'dirty dossier' in 2017, which alleged that Moscow attempted to interfere in the 2016 US presidential election and that there was potential collusion between Russia and Trump's campaign, along with other unverified and salacious claims about the president, including that he was vulnerable to blackmail from the Russians.
The dossier was paid for ultimately by Hillary Clinton's campaign. Many of the key claims were never verified.

Two of the most senior intelligence officials in the US and UK privately shared concerns about "our strange situation" as the FBI launched its 2016 investigation into whether Donald Trump's campaign was colluding with Russia.
Text messages between Andrew McCabe, the deputy director of the FBI at the time, and Jeremy Fleming, his then counterpart at MI5, now the head of GCHQ, also reveal their mutual surprise at the result of the EU referendum, which some US officials regarded as a "wake-up call", according to a person familiar with the matter.
While Russia had previously been viewed as a country that would seek to interfere in western elections, the Brexit vote was viewed by some within the FBI as a sign that Russian activities had possibly been successful, the person said.
Their exchanges offer new insights into the start of the FBI's Russia investigation, and how British intelligence appears to have played a key role in the early stages.
In one exchange in August 2016, Fleming noted that members of the FBI and MI5 had "met on our strange situation", a veiled reference to discussions about Russian activities, according to the source.
True Pundit reported in 2017 that Britain's spy agencies played a crucial role in spying on Trump and his associates for the FBI prior, during and after the 2016 presidential election.
That exclusive True Pundit report from Sept. 2017 revealed President Barack Obama's White House too could be implicated, sources said. But while evidence certainly points to involvement of the Obama administration, sources said they did not have access to definitive intelligence proving such a link.
Here is what we now know, per intelligence gleaned form federal law enforcement sources with insider knowledge of what amounts to a plot by U.S. intelligence agencies to secure back door and illegal wiretaps of President Trump's associates:
Six U.S. agencies created a stealth task force, spearhead by CIA's Brennan, to run domestic surveillance on Trump associates and possibly Trump himself.
To feign ignorance and to seemingly operate within U.S. laws, the agencies freelanced the wiretapping of Trump associates to the British spy agency GCHQ.
The decision to insert GCHQ as a back door to eavesdrop was sparked by the denial of two FISA Court warrant applications filed by the FBI to seek wiretaps of Trump associates.
GCHQ did not work from London or the UK. In fact the spy agency worked from NSA's headquarters in Fort Meade, MD with direct NSA supervision and guidance to conduct sweeping surveillance on Trump associates.
The illegal wiretaps were initiated months before the controversial Trump dossier compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele.
The Justice Department and FBI set up the meeting at Trump Tower between Trump Jr., Manafort and Kushner with controversial Russian officials to make Trump's associates appear compromised.
Following the Trump Tower sit down, GCHQ began digitally wiretapping Manafort, Trump Jr., and Kushner.
After the concocted meeting by the Deep State, the British spy agency could officially justify wiretapping Trump associates as an intelligence front for NSA because the Russian lawyer at the meeting Natalia Veselnitskaya was considered an international security risk and prior to the June sit down was not even allowed entry into the United States or the UK, federal sources said.
By using GCHQ, the NSA and its intelligence partners had carved out a loophole to wiretap Trump without a warrant. While it is illegal for U.S. agencies to monitor phones and emails of U.S. citizens inside the United States absent a warrant, it is not illegal for British intelligence to do so. Even if the GCHQ was tapping Trump on U.S. soil at Fort Meade.
The wiretaps, secured through illicit scheming, have been used by U.S. Special Counsel Robert Mueller's probe of alleged Russian collusion in the 2016 election, even though the evidence is considered "poisoned fruit."

Really???
WTF, Q?
Chris Wray's FBI continues to cover for Team Comey's Russia shenanigans
BY JOHN SOLOMON
The FBI is going to court to fight the public release of a small number of documents the State Department sent to agents from Christopher Steele, the British intelligence operative and Hillary Clinton-paid political muckraker, during the 2016 election.
Normally, such Freedom of Information Act cases don't merit public attention. This one does.
To hear the FBI tell it, the release of former Deputy Assistant Secretary Kathleen Kavalec's documents is tantamount to giving up the keys to President Trump's nuclear briefcase, aiding the enemy or assisting terrorists.
"We know that terrorist organizations and other hostile or foreign intelligence groups have the capacity and ability to gather information from myriad sources, analyze it and deduce means and methods from disparate details to defeat the U.S. government's collection efforts," an FBI assistant section chief swore in an affidavit supporting the request to keep the documents secret.
The FBI can't afford to "jeopardize the fragile relationships that exist between the United States and certain foreign governments," the FBI official declared in another dramatic argument against the conservative group Citizens United's request to release the memos.
And if that wasn't enough, the bureau actually claimed that "FBI special agents have privacy interests from unnecessary, unofficial questioning as to the conduct of investigations and other FBI business."
In other words, agents don't want to have to answer to the public, which pays their salary, when questions arise about the investigative work, as has happened in the Russia case.
The FBI's July 10 court filing speaks volumes about Director Christopher Wray's efforts to thwart the public understanding of what really happened in the FBI's now-debunked Russia collusion probe.

Mark Meadows bypasses FBI to appeal for release of info linked to FISA abuse report
Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., is getting impatient with the FBI in his effort to root out misconduct in the early stages of the Trump-Russia investigation and went over Director Christopher Wray's head to try and move things along.
In the balance, the GOP investigator said in a letter to top Justice Department officials last week, is the American public's ability to fully understand DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz's upcoming report on alleged surveillance abuses.
In the letter addressed to Attorney General William Barr and Horowitz, Meadows pushed for the unredacted release of five pages related to British ex-spy Christopher Steele, who compiled an unverified dossier on President Trump's ties to Russia that was used by the bureau to obtain the authority to spy on a member of his campaign, Carter Page.
Meadows cited a Freedom of Information Act legal battle over the disclosure of documents from Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec that followed her meeting with Steele on Oct. 11, 2016, 10 days before the first Page warrant application was submitted. Notes taken from that meeting by Kavalec, obtained and released by conservative group Citizens United through open-records litigation, cast doubt on Steele's reliability. Kavalec wrote that during that meeting Steele admitted he was encouraged by his client, which was the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, to get his research out before the November 2016 election, signaling a possible political motivation. Kavalec's notes also show she believed some of Steele's allegations were false.

John Solomon: Christopher Wray's FBI is Fighting in Court to Cover For Team Comey's Russia Hoax
Christopher Wray's FBI is fighting like hell in court to stop the public release of a number of documents the State Department sent to FBI agents from dossier author Christopher Steele.
The FBI argued in court that giving up the small number of documents will give up sources and methods to our enemies and terrorists.
"We know that terrorist organizations and other hostile or foreign intelligence groups have the capacity and ability to gather information from myriad sources, analyze it and deduce means and methods from disparate details to defeat the U.S. government's collection efforts," an FBI official swore in an affidavit supporting the request to keep the documents secret.
The FBI official argued against the conservative watchdog group Citizens United's request to release the Kavalec memos and asserted, the FBI can't afford to "jeopardize the fragile relationships that exist between the United States and certain foreign governments."
In May, award-winning investigative journalist John Solomon obtained memos from a high-ranking government official who met with former British spy Christopher Steele in October of 2016, who determined that Steele's 'dirt' on Trump was inaccurate and likely leaked to the media.
State Department official Kathleen Kavalec flagged this in memos and handwritten notes just 10 days before the first FISA warrant on Trump campaign advisor Carter Page was granted.
Multiple sources confirmed to John Solomon that Kavalec's red flag on Steele was immediately sent to a senior FBI official.
The email from State Department official Kathleen Kavalec was sent to Special Agent Stephen Laycock (his name was initially redacted), then the FBI's section chief for Eurasian counterintelligence, 8 days before the first FISA warrant was granted on Carter Page.
In November of 2018, FBI Director Christopher Wray named Stephen Laycock Assistant Director for the Directorate of Intelligence.
And now Wray's FBI is fighting to keep these documents under wraps.
One of the documents Kavalec downloaded is about the conspiracy theory spread by the liberal media (and Hillary Clinton) that pings between Trump Tower server and Alfa Bank in Russia might be secret communications between Trump and Putin - of course this has been thoroughly debunked and even Mueller poured cold water on this story.
This story is not classified and has been discussed in a hearing by Mueller so why is the FBI hiding the documents?
Via John Solomon of The Hill:
And if that wasn't enough, the bureau actually claimed that "FBI special agents have privacy interests from unnecessary, unofficial questioning as to the conduct of investigations and other FBI business."
In other words, agents don't want to have to answer to the public, which pays their salary, when questions arise about the investigative work, as has happened in the Russia case.
The FBI's July 10 court filing speaks volumes about Director Christopher Wray's efforts to thwart the public understanding of what really happened in the FBI's now-debunked Russia collusion probe.
On its face, the FBI's behavior in the Citizens United case isn't about protecting national security secrets. It's about protecting the bureau's reputation from revelations its agents knew derogatory information about Steele and his work before they used his dossier to support a surveillance warrant targeting the Trump campaign and failed to disclose that information to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC).

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes claims that the FBI and Justice Department omitted 'exculpatory evidence' on Carter Page in spy applications.
Nunes is investigating the FBI and DOJ for possible FISA abuse.
The Republican also claims that DOJ official Bruce Ohr will become 'more and more important' to his investigation.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes claimed Monday that the FBI and Justice Department failed to include exculpatory evidence in surveillance warrant applications against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
"There is exculpatory evidence that we have seen, of classified documents that need to be declassified," Nunes said in an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity.
"Exculpatory in nature in what way? Exculpatory in what way?" Hannity asked.
"In that the Carter Page FISA when the judges should have been presented with this exculpatory evidence that the FBI and DOJ had," Nunes replied.
In an interview, Nunes laid out three areas of interest that House Intelligence Republicans have in their investigation into possible abuse of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).
Nunes and other Republican members of the committee recently asked President Trump to declassify 21 pages from the FBI's fourth and final FISA warrant application. Nunes claimed in an interview on July 29 that Americans "will be shocked" when they see the 21 pages.
The Justice Department released heavily redacted versions of the four Page FISAs on July 21.
Republicans have asserted that the FBI and Justice Department misled the FISA Court by relying heavily on the unverified and Democrat-funded dossier to obtain four FISA warrants on Page. The dossier, which was written by former British spy Christopher Steele, claims that Page met with two Kremlin insiders during a July 2016 trip to Moscow. It also alleges that Page was directly involved in a conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russian government to influence the election.
Page has vehemently denied the allegations.
Nunes also told Hannity that the committee is interested in learning more about Justice Department official Bruce Ohr's role in the Trump-Russia investigation.
Ohr, the former associate deputy attorney general, met with Steele before and after the 2016 presidential election. The post-election meetings were held after the FBI ended its relationship with Steele because of the former British spy's contacts with the media.
As Nunes noted, though the FBI severed ties with Steele, Ohr provided information from his 12 meetings with Steele back to the FBI. Ohr's wife, Nellie Ohr, also worked during the campaign for Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that hired Steele in June 2016.
"Bruce Ohr is going to become more and more important in this investigation, and I think people should pay close attention to it," Nunes told Hannity.
Nunes did not elaborate on what evidence the FBI failed to include in the FISA applications. A spokesman for the California Republican said he was unable to go beyond what Nunes told Hannity.

This is back from September 2018. Interesting line:
Nunes said he believes the declassification will provide exculpatory evidence for the president. He said the new information will shed new light on the dozen or so 302s from Justice Department official Bruce Ohr, which could show the interactions between ex-British spy Christopher Steele, Fusion GPS and "many other rotten apples" within the FBI.
"A lot of people think that the insurance policy was getting the FISA warrant on [former Trump campaign aide] Carter Page," he told Laura Ingraham, host of "The Ingraham Angle." "We actually believe it was more explicit than that."

Tell me if I'm wrong:
Mueller was installed as Special Counsel to give cover for Weissman and his team of dirty rabid Dems to continue to go after Trump, to make it appear that the "investigation" was legitimate, just as Christopher Steele was hired on the basis of his credentials to give the false appearance that the "dossier" was legitimate.
The original draft of the Steele dossier was actually written by HRC's henchmen, Sydney Blumenthal and Cody Shearer, at HRC's and BC's direction and with their input. But they knew the media would never bite if this was known, so Fusion GPS was hired and directed to employ Steele in order to give cover.
Meanwhile (back at the ranch), Strzok/Page et al were being directed by Weissman, who was being directed by McCabe/Comey, who were being directed by … ? Obama? No, Valerie Jarrett was ALWAYS the one really running that show. And who was directing her? The Chicago Mafia, the org that got Obama (and JFK) elected.
Who in this particular group was the boss? Unknown, but it doesn't really matter because even they weren't the ultimate boss. Who was? Unknown, but apparently it was either Soros, the Rothchildes or a Saudi clan.
Which, if you think about it, it all comes down to Jews/Christians/Muslims. Isn't that just lovely. (sigh)

Russian Oligarch Calls Trump 'Golden Showers' Tape Rumors 'Crazy Nonsense'
The Russian real estate mogul who hosted Donald Trump in Moscow in 2013 has spoken out publicly for the first time about the infamous Steele dossier.
"Crazy nonsense," is what Aras Agalarov says of the dossier's claims about a "pee tape" involving Trump.
Agalarov hosted Trump at the Miss Universe pageant in Nov. 2013, which is where dossier author Christopher Steele claims Trump cavorted with prostitutes at the Ritz-Carlton.
Aras Agalarov, the Azerbaijani-Russian billionaire who hosted President Donald Trump at the Miss Universe pageant in Moscow in 2013, says claims Trump engaged with prostitutes during his visit are "crazy nonsense."
Former British spy Christopher Steele claimed in his dossier that Russian intelligence services were blackmailing Trump with footage of him with prostitutes at the Ritz-Carlton in Moscow in November 2013, while he was attending the Miss Universe pageant. Agalarov and Trump partnered to host the event, and Trump was with the Russian businessman during his visit.
Steele, who was working for the DNC and Clinton campaign during the 2016 campaign, alleged that the video showed Trump watching as the prostitutes urinated on each other, in a so-called "golden shower" scene.
Agalarov, who controls a multi-billion dollar real estate empire, has not spoken publicly about the rumored tape in the 30 months since BuzzFeed published the dossier (on Jan. 10, 2017).
But in an interview with The Bell, a Russian news outlet not affiliated with the government, Agalarov said Trump would not have had the time to take part in what the dossier described.
"He spent the whole first day with us, then allegedly invited prostitutes to his room, in the morning he went to meet with businessmen early, then until two in the morning he was with me, the next morning to the contest, and immediately flew away," he said, according to a translation of the interview.
"This is crazy nonsense."
No evidence of a tape has emerged, and people who were with Trump during his stay in Moscow have said that he spent only several hours in his hotel room, making it unlikely that the events could have unfolded as described.
Trump's longtime bodyguard, Keith Schiller, told the House Intelligence Committee that the dossier's allegations were false. He did say that he denied an offer from someone at the event to send five women to Trump's hotel room. Schiller said he and Trump joked about the offer on the way back to his room for the night.

Q Research General #9235: (((Mossad))) Agents Can't Cover The Truth Up Fast Enough
David Corn
Did FBI get bamboozled by multiple versions of Trump dossier?
By John Solomon 7/10/2018
Like dandelions in an untreated lawn, the now infamous Russian dossier apparently multiplied in numbers - and emissaries delivering it to the FBI - the closer Donald Trump got to the White House.
We know from public testimony that dossier author and former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele shared his findings with the FBI in summer and fall 2016 before he was terminated as a confidential source for inappropriate media contacts.
And we learned that Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) provided a copy to the FBI after the November 2016 election - out of a sense of duty, his office says.
Now, memos the FBI is turning over to Congress show the bureau possessed at least three versions of the dossier and its mostly unverified allegations of collusion.
Each arrived from a different messenger: McCain, Mother Jones reporter David Corn, Fusion GPS founder (and Steele boss) Glenn Simpson.
In his House Intelligence Committee testimony, Simpson acknowledged he "acceded" to letting Steele talk to the FBI but insisted he himself never talked to the FBI about the dossier. "Did you meet with intelligence officials regarding the dossier?" he was asked. "No," Simpson replied. Pressed if he ever talked to the FBI, Simpson added: "I didn't approach the FBI."
In light of the new emails, investigators will want to determine if Simpson misled Congress or if Strzok misstated the source of one of the versions.
The chief courier of the Trump dirt was Steele, a former MI6 agent respected for past collaborations with the FBI on intelligence matters. But we now know he was "desperate" to defeat Trump, according to sworn testimony.
In October, the FBI submitted and won a request for a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant against Carter Page, another Trump adviser. In support of the request, it cited a Yahoo News article that, officials admit, was influenced by the Steele dossier.
Around the same time, in late October, Corn wrote an article in Mother Jones about Steele's Trump-Russia allegations.
In an email to me, Corn said he told the FBI about the dossier before writing that article. After Trump won the election, he shared a version of the document with the bureau in hopes of furthering his reporting. "I tried the FBI again after the election. On my own accord, I shared a copy of the dossier with the FBI in order to see if the bureau would authenticate the documents and now comment on them. Once again, it would not," he wrote me.
Corn dismissed any suggestion that made him an FBI source: "To characterize me as a source of the document is inaccurate. I was merely doing what a journalist does: trying to get more information on a story I was pursuing."
Corn's opposition to Trump is well documented in his articles, a book he wrote, and on Twitter where, this month, he declared: "Trump has a far greater affinity for the leader of a corrupt and repressive autocracy than he does for any leader of a liberal Western democracy. That should concern Democrats and Republicans."

Q Research General #9227: It's the calm before the storm! Got your keg and popcorn ordered? Edition
Two New GrrrGraphics
Mueller's congressional 'hearing' was a disaster for the Democrats. Tina and I watched the political theater live and both of us came up with cartoons.
Ben's Take, "Robert Mueller's Hearing"
The former FBI director and special prosecutor seemed unwilling or unable to answer questions pertaining to his own report. The befuddled 74 year-old acted even older than his age as he refused to answer questions for vague reasons. Over and over, he rebuffed questions by stating they were not in his 'purview.' One has to wonder what was in his purview.
Even more disturbing was his frail and disconnected performance. He could not remember his own report. It was obvious he didn't even write it. He didn't know what Fusion GPS was! Or maybe he was only feigning incompetence. After all, he had to have known Hillary paid Fusion GPS to drum up negative information on Trump. Russian operatives provided lies to the spy Christopher Steele, which formed the basis of his dossier. It should have been quickly discredited, but instead served as the basis for a case against Trump. Incredibly, Mueller claimed the Steele dossier was not in his purview! Perhaps Mueller was covering for Bill and Hillary, who really did collude with Russia. Everyone knows about their Uranium One deal, in which Mueller himself was involved.
Democrats such as Nadler and Schiff had high hopes that Mueller would spill some sort of anti-Trump beans. They want to restart the Russian collusion farce.
The want our president impeached.
Many of the Democrats praised Mueller effusively and honored him for his service. Indeed, Mueller does deserve honor for his service as a marine. His behavior as an FBI head and now special prosecutor has been less than honorable. Taxpayers spent close to 40 million dollars so he could drag out the witch-hunt.
Mueller stated that although he could not find evidence that Trump colluded with Russia, it doesn't mean that Trump wasn't guilty of something-and hinted he could be prosecuted for obstruction after his term was up. This is nonsense. There was no obstruction and it's not Mueller's job to pronounce innocence or guilt no more than it was Comey's job to exonerate Hillary by claiming she had no bad intent when she egregiously broke the law. Mueller seems to have forgotten that people are innocent until proven guilty. The president is entitled to that too-he's not a 'special case' as Mueller suggested. Mueller does not get to rewrite the Constitution as he goes along. His actions were not honorable. Indeed, they are reprehensible!
Mueller was installed to protect the swamp and after what I saw today, that swamp can finally begin to be drained. The witch-hunt is over.
There will be no impeachment. The Democrats lost. They defeated themselves.
-Ben Garrison

Q Research General #9226: Stranger than Strange!? New Bakers step up to haz the fun! Edition
Seth Rich, Robert Mueller and The Russian Collusion Hoax
*Democrats Lied about Russia.
*Mueller lied about Russia.
"The destruction of Hillary Clinton wasn't a Russian job. It was a DNC insider who witnessed Clinton's corruption first hand against Bernie Sanders. He decided to expose Clinton's corruption. His name was Seth Rich."
- Kim Dotcom, Internet Entrepreneur and Political AN
The dopes on the Left hoped the Mueller Report hearing yesterday would finally put them over the impeachment hump and send Trump packing. Instead, it turned out to be an embarrassment to Mueller and every angry Trump hater in the room.
Not only was Mueller, the face of Andrew Weissmann's Trump impeachment squad, ill-prepared for the questions thrown at him by the Republicans, but he appeared confused, mumbled and stumbled through his testimony, and seemed badly in need of a hearing aid, asking dozens of times for the questions to be repeated.
Mueller was exposed in this hearing as the figurehead of a Marxist group of Trump-hating, Clinton supporters that were allowed to harass a duly elected President for two and a half years. If the major players in this coup don't see prison time, all trust in the FBI and the Department of Justice will be lost.
Aside from the shock of seeing this feeble old Deep State fixer have a series of senior moments on national television, the viewer saw that Mueller was so unfamiliar with the contents of the report that bears his name that when asked about Fusion GPS and owner Glenn Simpson, Mueller said he wasn't familiar with either.
That seemed hard to believe since it was Glenn Simpson and Fusion GPS who hired former British Intelligence agent Christopher Steele to write the infamous Trump Dossier for the Clinton campaign and the DNC. Both are mentioned in his report.
*Sadly No one was more surprised about what was in his report than Mr. Mueller.
The dossier was central to the case against Trump yet Mueller said that the subject was "beyond my purview." He also testified that he never bothered to interview Glen Simpson, a key witness in the Trump Tower meeting with Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya who met with Simpson the day before the meeting with the Trump team and the day after. This certainly should have been in Mueller's purview!
This, however, didn't surprise me a bit. I wrote on May 17, 2017, after Mueller was named special counsel, in "Deep State Cover-ups, Conspiracies, And Lies"...
"If Comey had a mentor it would be Robert Mueller, they are cut from the same cloth. I don't trust Robert Mueller to do much but take a long time to get little or nothing done. Mueller is considered a longtime deep state fixer involved in cover-ups at Waco, Ruby Ridge, the Oklahoma City Bombing and 911 to name just a few".
The Democrats and Republicans continue to push the Russian hacking nonsense despite the fact that it has been revealed that "CrowdStrike," the company hired by Hillary Clinton and the DNC that confirmed evidence of Russian hacking is funded by Trump-hating Google. Why are we just now hearing this?
Congressman Jerry Nadler held a press conference with a crowd of Trump haters today declaring that Russia "Attacked America" and Donald Trump "asked for and encouraged Russia's help" in beating Hillary. All ridiculous lies.

Q Research General #9201: Nothing Can Stop What's Coming Edition
Clapper Suggests Mueller Just a Figurehead Who Was Not Involved in Writing 'His' Report
Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper suggested during a Thursday appearance on CNN that Mueller was just a figurehead who was not involved in writing 'his' report.
Clapper, who was heavily involved in the attempted coup against President Trump and one of the originators of the Russia hoax, said Mueller's role was more like a "CEO."
"I think his role as a special prosecutor was a lot more like a CEO where he oversaw the operations but did not engage in interrogating witnesses or actually writing the report."
James Clapper, one of the originators of the Collusion Hoax, suggests Mueller was just a figurehead, who was not involved in writing his report
Then who did?
Anti-Trump zealots who went to Hillary's Election wake, & represented the Clinton Foundation & Hillary's hammer man pic.twitter.com/Z3kCK0pKb1
- Elizabeth Harrington (@LizRNC) July 25, 2019
If Mueller didn't write the report, that means the work was left to the anti-Trump zealots that filled Mueller's team.
Nearly every single prosecutor on Mueller's team was a Hillary/Obama donor.
Mueller's lead prosecutor Andrew Weissmann was at Hillary Clinton's election night funeral and praised former acting AG Sally Yates for refusing to enforce Trump's presidential order on a travel ban.
Mueller's other top deputy, Aaron Zebley represented the IT aide who not only set up Hillary Clinton's private server but also smashed her Blackberrys (under subpoena) with a hammer.
Zebley sat next to Robert Mueller on Wednesday to 'advise' the former special counsel. Zebley was well-versed on the 448-page report so he helped Mueller navigate through and answer questions.
Mueller showed Wednesday during the hearing that he had no idea what was in his own report.
Jim Jordan caught Mueller off guard when he brought up Trump campaign advisor George Papadopoulos and the fake Russian agent Joseph Mifsud - Jordan had to school Mueller on his own report!
At one point Mueller said he was 'not familiar' with Fusion GPS, the oppo research firm that Hillary Clinton's law firm paid to obtain the phony dossier from Christopher Steele.
How is this even possible?
The highly respected conservative columnist Byron York said Mueller's lack of knowledge about his own report raises questions about the handling of the investigation.
"Mueller's performance raised questions that reached far beyond one appearance before one committee. It called into doubt the degree to which Mueller was in charge of the entire special counsel investigation," Byron York wrote.
The Deep State coup cabal knew they had to choose Mueller as their figurehead because he could be passed off as 'neutral and well-respected' - so who better than a Republican and former FBI Director who served in Vietnam?
The "Weissmann investigation" or the "Zebley Investigation" just doesn't have the same ring to it as the "Mueller investigation."

About Nellie Ohr learning Russian - there's more to it than that.
https://www.conservapedia.com/Nellie_Ohr
You gotta read this all to believe it.
"Nellie Ohr graduated from Harvard University in 1983 with a degree in history and Russian literature, studied in the Soviet Union in 1989, and obtained a Ph.D. front Stanford University in Russian history in 1990.
Nellie Ohr was Professor of Russian Studies at Vassar College during 90's. Edward Baumgartner (hired by Fusion to work with Natalia Veselnitskaya & Christopher Steele) studied at Vassar (Russian Studies) this time. Nellie Ohr was a conduit between Steele/Fusion and Bruce Ohr/DOJ."
An apologist for Stalin. Unbelievable.

>www.foxnews.com/politics/congressional-investigators-seeking-nellie-ohrs-opposition-research-records-on-trump-family
Republican House investigators are working to obtain records from Russia probe figure Nellie Ohr containing opposition research on then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, his wife and children, two sources familiar with the matter told Fox News.
Ohr has long been of interest to those looking into the genesis of the FBI's probe into Russia and the Trump campaign during the 2016 election. She worked for the opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which was behind the infamous, Democratic-funded dossier of salacious claims about Trump. She is also married to Bruce Ohr, a Justice Department official whose connection to Fusion GPS led to his eventual demotion.
During her December 2018 closed-door deposition on Capitol Hill, Nellie Ohr told investigators she did the opposition research on the Trump family for Fusion GPS. Sources said her project predated the hiring of former British spy Christopher Steele, who compiled the dossier.
"I was asked to research Trump's family broadly in connection with any - any Russian connections," she said.
Nellie Ohr confirmed to investigators that she explored family members' foreign travel, among other issues. "I did some research on all of them, but not in much depth," she said.
She also said the purpose was to "see whether they were involved in dealings and transactions with people who had suspicious pasts, or suspicious types of dealings."
At the time of her testimony, Nellie Ohr said she was still in possession of the research but was unclear whether it was hers to share, or whether it was owned by her former employer, Fusion GPS.
"Do you still possess the research that you performed?" a Republican investigator asked her during the interview.
"Yes," she responded.
"Would you be willing to share that with the committee?"
"I guess so," Nellie Ohr said.
Fox News has reached out to Nellie Ohr's lawyer asking if she remains willing to provide the records, if turning over the documents requires a subpoena and what has accounted for the six-month delay.
It is not publicly known whether any of her research was reflected in the dossier, which also looked at the travel history of former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, among others.
Bruce Ohr's actions during that time have been of interest to investigators, as it is believed he was the back channel between Steele, the Trump dossier author, and the FBI.

Donald Trump Jr: 'Does Anybody Really Believe' Mueller Doesn't Know About Fusion GPS?
Donald Trump Jr. expressed skepticism Wednesday that Special Counsel Robert Mueller "never of heard of Fusion GPS," the opposition research firm that partnered with Perkins Coie - the law firm working with Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign - and Christopher Steele, the foreign national who produced a now-debunked "dossier" alleging a nefarious conspiracy between then-candidate Donald Trump and the Russian government.
Speaking with Breitbart News at the Turning Point USA Teen Student Action Summit in Washington, DC, Trump mocked Mueller for saying he wasn't aware of Fusion GPS, which "started the whole thing," despite spending tens of millions of dollars on the years-long investigation.

Mueller Says He Is 'Not Familiar' With Fusion GPS, The Firm Behind The Steele Dossier
Former special counsel Robert Mueller said Wednesday that he was "not familiar" with Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that commissioned the Steele dossier.
Mueller revealed his surprising lack of familiarity with the firm during an exchange with Ohio Rep. Steve Chabot, a Republican member of the House Judiciary Committee.
"When you talk about the firm that produced the Steele reporting, the name of the firm that produced that was Fusion GPS, is that correct?" Chabot asked.
"I'm not familiar with that," said Mueller, while scouring through his 448-page report of the Russia probe.
"Let me just help you. It was. It's not a trick question or anything. It was Fusion GPS," said Chabot.
The Republican laid out links between Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson and Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer who attended the June 9, 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with Trump associates.
"This is outside my purview," Mueller said when asked about the issue.
Mueller's lack of familiarity with Fusion GPS and Simpson is something of a surprise given its prominent role in creating the dossier, which former British spy Christopher Steele authored and the Democratic National Committee and Clinton campaign funded.
The FBI relied heavily on the dossier to obtain wiretap warrants against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. The Justice Department's inspector general is investigating whether the FBI misled the federal surveillance court by relying on Steele's unverified report.
Mueller's investigation undercut the dossier's core allegation that the Trump campaign engaged in a "well-developed conspiracy of co-operation" with the Russian government.
Mueller told lawmakers in his opening remarks that he would not discuss the dossier or the origins of the Russia probe.
"I therefore will not be able to answer questions about certain areas that I know are of public interest. For example, I'm unable to address questions about the initial opening of the FBI's Russia investigation, which occurred months before my appointment, or matters related to the so-called Steele dossier," Mueller said.
"These are matters of ongoing review by the department and any questions on these topics should be directed to the FBI or Justice Department," he added.

If there was street action, I'd like to see individuals targeted, like Hillary Clinton.
Are we 24 hours from "officially knowing" that Hillary Clinton paid a British Spy (colluding with a foreign government to influence an election) to make up lies about Trump, and the FBI running with those lies, knowing they were lies in order to spy on Trump? Are we? Maybe. Eventually, we should get "Hillary Clinton paid Christopher Steele" And then, we could go to Chappaqua, and show up with "Lock Her Up" Signs and Chants.

Justice Dept. Watchdog Has Evidence Comey Probed Trump, on the Sly
By Paul Sperry, RealClearInvestigations
July 22, 2019
It is one of the most enduring and consequential mysteries of the Trump-Russia investigation: Why did former FBI Director James Comey refuse to say publicly what he was telling President Trump in private - that Trump was not the target of an ongoing probe?
That refusal ignited a chain of events that has consumed Washington for more than two years - including Comey's firing by Trump, the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, and ongoing claims that Trump obstructed justice.
Now an answer is emerging. Sources tell RealClearInvestigations that Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz will soon file a report with evidence indicating that Comey was misleading the president. Even as he repeatedly assured Trump that he was not a target, the former director was secretly trying to build a conspiracy case against the president, while at times acting as an investigative agent.
Two U.S. officials briefed on the inspector general's investigation of possible FBI misconduct said Comey was essentially "running a covert operation against" the president, starting with a private "defensive briefing" he gave Trump just weeks before his inauguration. They said Horowitz has examined high-level FBI text messages and other communications indicating Comey was actually conducting a "counterintelligence assessment" of Trump during that January 2017 meeting in New York.
In addition to adding notes of his meetings and phone calls with Trump to the official FBI case file, Comey had an agent inside the White House who reported back to FBI headquarters about Trump and his aides, according to other officials familiar with the matter.
Although Comey took many actions on his own, he was not working in isolation. One focus of Horowitz's inquiry is the private Jan. 6, 2017, briefing Comey gave the president-elect in New York about material in the Democratic-commissioned dossier compiled by ex-British intelligence officer Christopher Steele. Reports of that meeting were used days later by BuzzFeed, CNN and other outlets as a news hook for reporting on the dossier's lascivious and unsubstantiated claims.
Comey's meeting with Trump took place one day after the FBI director met in the Oval Office with President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden to discuss how to brief Trump - a meeting attended by National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and National Intelligence Director James Clapper, who would soon go to work for CNN.
In his recently published memoir, "A Higher Loyalty," Comey denied having "a counterintelligence case file open on [Trump]," though he qualified the denial by adding this was true only in the "literal" sense. He also twice denied investigating Trump, under oath, in congressional testimony.
At the same time Comey was personally scrutinizing the president during meetings in the White House and phone conversations from the FBI, he had an agent inside the White House working on the Russia investigation, where he reported back to FBI headquarters about Trump and his aides, according to officials familiar with the matter. The agent, Anthony Ferrante, who specialized in cyber crime, left the White House around the same time Comey was fired and soon joined a security consulting firm, where he contracted with BuzzFeed to lead the news site's efforts to verify the Steele dossier, in connection with a defamation lawsuit.

In his recently published memoir, "A Higher Loyalty," Comey denied having "a counterintelligence case file open on [Trump]," though he qualified the denial by adding this was true only in the "literal" sense. He also twice denied investigating Trump, under oath, in congressional testimony.
Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy, who has written extensively on the Trump-Russia probe as a columnist for National Review, said that just because the president's name was not put on a file or a surveillance warrant does not mean the Comey FBI was not investigating him. "They were hoping to surveil him incidentally, and they were trying to make a case on him," McCarthy said. "The real reason Comey did not want to repeat publicly the assurances he made to Trump privately is that these assurances were misleading. The FBI strung Trump along, telling him he was not a suspect while structuring the investigation in accordance with the reality that Trump was the main subject."
But, former FBI counterintelligence agent and lawyer Mark Wauck said, the FBI lacked legal grounds to treat Trump as a suspect. "They had no probable cause against Trump himself for 'collusion' or espionage," he said. "They were scrambling to come up with anything to hang a hat on, but had found nothing."
What remains unclear is why Comey would take such extraordinary steps against a sitting president. The Mueller report concluded there was no basis for the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theories. Comey himself was an early skeptic of the Steele dossier – the opposition research memos paid for by Hillary Clinton's campaign that were the road map of collusion theories - which he dismissed as "salacious and unverified."

Jim Jordan on the DOJ IG report: 'What's got Schiff worried?'
Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio said today that Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff of California must be "worried" about the upcoming results of the investigation into alleged Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Abuse conducted by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz. The GOP's ranking member on the House Oversight Committee was responding to comments made by the Democratic chairman of the House Intelligence Committee at the Aspen Security Forum this weekend, where Schiff suggested that Horowitz's prior investigation of former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe was put on a "fast track" by the Justice Department in order to please President Trump and that its results were therefore "tainted" by politics.
"Inspector General Horowitz is a professional. He's conducting a crucial investigation into FBI and DOJ misconduct. But @RepAdamSchiff said his investigation is 'tainted.' What's got Schiff worried?" Jordan tweeted. Horowitz concluded in February 2018 that McCabe had improperly disclosed information about an investigation to the media and then had "lacked candor" when speaking with former FBI Director James Comey and with investigators from the FBI and the inspector general's office. Then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions fired McCabe in March 2018 just before McCabe was scheduled to retire.
Schiff also said this weekend that the "investigation of the investigators" related to the origins of the Trump-Russia probe being carried out by Attorney General William Barr and U.S. Attorney John Durham was similarly "tainted." Schiff's comments came after Horowitz interviewed British ex-spy Christopher Steele, whose unverified dossier was relied upon in four FISA applications and renewals, and as the inspector general's highly-anticipated report is reportedly set to be released in the coming weeks.

In addition to adding notes of his meetings and phone calls with Trump to the official FBI case file, Comey had an agent inside the White House who reported back to FBI headquarters about Trump and his aides, according to other officials familiar with the matter. Although Comey took many actions on his own, he was not working in isolation. One focus of Horowitz's inquiry is the private Jan. 6, 2017, briefing Comey gave the president-elect in New York about material in the Democratic-commissioned dossier compiled by ex-British intelligence officer Christopher Steele. Reports of that meeting were used days later by BuzzFeed, CNN and other outlets as a news hook for reporting on the dossier's lascivious and unsubstantiated claims.
Comey's meeting with Trump took place one day after the FBI director met in the Oval Office with President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden to discuss how to brief Trump - a meeting attended by National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and National Intelligence Director James Clapper, who would soon go to work for CNN. In his recently published memoir, "A Higher Loyalty," Comey denied having "a counterintelligence case file open on [Trump]," though he qualified the denial by adding this was true only in the "literal" sense. He also twice denied investigating Trump, under oath, in congressional testimony.
Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy, who has written extensively on the Trump-Russia probe as a columnist for National Review, said that just because the president's name was not put on a file or a surveillance warrant does not mean the Comey FBI was not investigating him. "They were hoping to surveil him incidentally, and they were trying to make a case on him," McCarthy said. "The real reason Comey did not want to repeat publicly the assurances he made to Trump privately is that these assurances were misleading. The FBI strung Trump along, telling him he was not a suspect while structuring the investigation in accordance with the reality that Trump was the main subject." But, former FBI counterintelligence agent and lawyer Mark Wauck said, the FBI lacked legal grounds to treat Trump as a suspect. "They had no probable cause against Trump himself for 'collusion' or espionage," he said. "They were scrambling to come up with anything to hang a hat on, but had found nothing."

Justice Dept. Watchdog Has Evidence Comey Probed Trump, on the Sly
It is one of the most enduring and consequential mysteries of the Trump-Russia investigation: Why did former FBI Director James Comey refuse to say publicly what he was telling President Trump in private – that Trump was not the target of an ongoing probe? That refusal ignited a chain of events that has consumed Washington for more than two years - including Comey's firing by Trump, the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, and ongoing claims that Trump obstructed justice. Now an answer is emerging. Sources tell RealClearInvestigations that Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz will soon file a report with evidence indicating that Comey was misleading the president. Even as he repeatedly assured Trump that he was not a target, the former director was secretly trying to build a conspiracy case against the president, while at times acting as an investigative agent.

Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz reportedly has evidence that indicates former FBI Director James Comey misled President Donald Trump about him being the target of an investigation.
According to RealClearInvestigations, Horowitz will soon file a report that contains evidence that Comey repeatedly assured the president that he wasn't the target of an investigation even as Comey was working on a "counterintelligence assessment" of Trump during that time, according to two unidentified U.S. officials who were briefed on the report. They also said that Comey had been essentially "running a covert operation against" Trump that began with a one-on-one "defense briefing" that he gave Trump a few weeks before his inauguration.
The officials said that Horowitz has found evidence for this after reviewing FBI communications, including text messages. Other unnamed officials told RealClearInvestigations that Comey received information about Trump and his aides from an agent inside the White House.
Horowitz is reportedly focusing on one briefing that Comey gave Trump on Jan. 6, 2017, about some of the material found in the dossier compiled by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele.
The Inspector General's report is set for release in early September, and will contain Horowitz' findings after reviewing more than 1 million records and conducting over 100 interviews, including with Comey himself and other current and former FBI and Justice Department officials.

House Republicans Want Nellie Ohr's Oppo Research Of Trump's Family: Report
House Republicans are requesting Nellie Ohr's research into President Donald Trump's family members, according to Fox News.
Ohr, whose husband is a top DOJ official, testified Oct. 19 that she conducted open-source research into Trump's family while working as a contractor for Fusion GPS, the firm behind the Steele dossier.
Republicans are reportedly interested in what role the Ohrs and Fusion GPS played in the Russia probe.
House Republicans are reportedly seeking documents from former Fusion GPS contractor Nellie Ohr related to her research into President Donald Trump's family, including his wife and children.
During a congressional interview Oct. 19, 2018, Ohr said while she worked for Fusion GPS, the firm behind the infamous Steele dossier, she compiled open-source research on the travels and business activities of Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump, and Trump's wife, Melania.
"I was asked to research Trump's family broadly in connection with any - any Russian connections," Ohr told a Republican staffer during her interview.
"Were you doing independent research based off of each family member?" the staffer asked.
"I did some," said Ohr, a Russia linguist. "As I recall, I did some research on all of them, but not into much depth."
Asked about her research into Trump Jr., Ohr said "I looked into some of his travels" in order to "see whether they were involved in dealings and transactions with people who had had suspicious pasts."
House Republicans are requesting Ohr's investigative files, according to Fox News, citing two sources familiar with the matter.
They want to know how the information on Trump's family was used in the Fusion GPS investigation, and whether any was included in the infamous anti-Trump dossier authored by former British spy Christopher Steele, according to the report.

Judicial Watch: Emails Show Dossier-Connected Obama State Dept Officials Set 'Face-to-Face' Meeting on 'Russian Matter' Shortly Before 2016 Election
Judicial Watch and the Daily Caller News Foundation on Thursday released 84 pages of documents showing Obama's State Department was central to pushing the 'Trump-Russia' hoax shortly before the 2016 election.
The email exchange between then-Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and Special Coordinator for Libya Jonathan Winer, a very close associate to Christopher Steele, show them discussing a 'face-to-face' meeting in New York on a 'Russian matter' in September of 2016.
Via Judicial Watch:
Judicial Watch and The Daily Caller News Foundation today released 84 pages of documents, including a September 2016 email exchange between then-Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland and Special Coordinator for Libya Jonathan Winer, a close associate of dossier author Christopher Steele, discussing a "face-to-face" meeting on a "Russian matter."
(In June 2016 Nuland permitted a meeting between Steele and the FBI's legal attaché in Rome. Nuland told CBS News that the State Department knew about the Steele dossier by July 2016.)
According to an op-ed Winer wrote for The Washington Post in 2018, also in September 2016, "Steele and I met in Washington and discussed the information now known as the "dossier... I prepared a two-page summary and shared it with Nuland, who indicated that, like me, she felt that the secretary of state needed to be made aware of this material."
A September 17, 2016, email exchange between Nuland and Winer - that was classified in the interest of national defense or foreign policy - discusses the political situation in Libya, but also brings up a "Russian matter:"

Jim Jordan: Timing of final Carter Page FISA extension is 'significant'
by Daniel Chaitin - July 18, 2019 08:53 AM
Rep. Jim Jordan said a "significant" question is why the FBI submitted a third Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act renewal to surveil onetime Trump campaign adviser Carter Page after Robert Mueller was appointed special counsel.
During an interview Wednesday evening, the Ohio Republican said Mueller could be asked about this when he testifies before the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees next week.
"They signed it after he was named special counsel. I think that's significant. I'm sure someone's going to ask about that question," Jordan told Fox News host Sean Hannity. Jordan, a member of the House Judiciary Committee, said he and his fellow Republicans on the panel are working out the "best approach" in how to question Mueller.
Four FISA warrant applications and renewals were filed from October 2016 through June 2017 against Page. Mueller was appointed special counsel of the Russia investigation in May 2017, after President Trump fired FBI Director James Comey.
The applications relied heavily on the unverified dossier about Trump's ties to Russia compiled by British ex-spy Christopher Steele, who was hired by Fusion GPS. The opposition research firm was hired by Marc Elias of the Perkins Coie law firm at the behest of the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign. Steele and Fusion GPS shopped the research around to various government figures, including one skeptical State Department official, as well as the media in the run-up to the 2016 election.
Jordan said the government surveilled an American citizen, who was never charged with any wrongdoing, for a better part of a year based on information that was "bogus." He also said former FBI General Counsel James Baker's admissions about the FISA application was important.
Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz is looking into Steele as part of his investigation into alleged FISA abuse.

Q Research General #9055: Where Nobody Knows your Name! Edition
Details Emerge Of Mystery FBI Spreadsheet That Kept Track Of Steele Dossier
Former Republican South Carolina Rep. Trey Gowdy revealed in an interview that the FBI maintained a spreadsheet on which it kept track of the allegations made by former British spy Christopher Steele in his infamous dossier. According to Gowdy, the spreadsheet laid out every assertion made in Steele's 17 memos, with any evidence uncovered to support or rule out each claim. Gowdy said the spreadsheet included links to news reports to corroborate some of Steele's allegations. The spreadsheet also included a reference to Sidney Blumenthal, a longtime Hillary Clinton fixer who was involved in spreading a second dossier alleging various misdeeds by Donald Trump.
Gowdy, who sat on the House Intelligence Committee, said Blumenthal's presence on the spreadsheet posed a problem given his history of spreading conspiracy theories, as well as his links to the Clintons. "I've seen the spreadsheet," Gowdy told Fox News' Martha MacCallum in a May 15 interview. "I have seen each factual assertion listed in that dossier, and then I've seen the FBI's justification. And when you're citing newspaper articles as corroboration for a factual assertion that you have made, you don't need an FBI agent to go do a Google search." "When the name Sidney Blumenthal is included as part of your corroboration, and when you're the world's leading law enforcement agency, you have a problem."
More details of the mysterious FBI document have emerged. The Hill's John Solomon reported that the bureau noted on the spreadsheet that the vast majority of Steele's assertions were either inaccurate or unverified. Other information in the dossier was based on open-source research. "The spreadsheet was a sea of blanks, meaning most claims couldn't be corroborated, and those things that were found in classified intelligence suggested Steele's intelligence was partly or totally inaccurate on several claims," one source told Solomon. The questions that remains unanswered are when the FBI determined that some of Steele's allegations were false, and whether investigators notified the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC) about any inaccuracies in Steele's reporting.
The FBI relied heavily on Steele's report in four applications for wiretap warrants against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page. Republicans and the Justice Department's inspector general have been investigating whether the FBI misled or withheld information related to the dossier from the FISC. As part of its process to obtain the wiretap warrants, the FBI and Justice Department would have created what's known as a Woods file laying out the evidence to back up each claim made in the warrant application. The spreadsheet is believed to be a separate document that the FBI used as part of its larger counterintelligence investigation of the Trump campaign. The spreadsheet indicated the FBI could not verify a key claim made by Steele that the FBI cited in its warrant applications, according to The Hill.
Steele, who was working on behalf of the Clinton campaign and DNC, alleged Page met secretly during a July 2016 trip to Moscow with two Kremlin insiders, Igor Sechin and Igor Diveykin. Steele said Page and the Russians discussed exchanging compromising information on Trump and Hillary Clinton. Steele also linked Page to a "well-developed conspiracy of co-operation" between the Trump campaign and Russia. According to Steele, it was Page's idea to release emails that Russians stolen from the DNC through WikiLeaks. Page has vehemently denied all of the allegations.
The special counsel's report poured cold water on many of those claims, and others made by Steele. The report said prosecutors did not establish the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to influence the 2016 election. No Trump associates, including Page, were found to have acted as agents of the Russian government. The report also undercut the dossier's claim that former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen visited Prague to scheme with Russians in August 2016.

Q Research General #9043: Sometimes the Memes Just Write Themselves Edition
Solomon appeared on "Hannity" last night and here is what he had to say: (Segment begins at 38:05 in the video below.)
In early 2017, the FBI began on a significant effort to assess the credibility of the Steele dossier. They interviewed one of his primary sources, a Russian living in the west and they came to the assessment after the interview which I believe was in January or February in 2017, that he was either intentionally misleading Steele or exaggerating in ways that caused Steele's report to be grossly inaccurate.
They then took every factual statement in the Steele dossier memos and put them in a spreadsheet and analyzed them and came to conclude that the vast majority of them were either wrong, unverifiable despite all the investigative tools the FBI had or things that an intern with a google search could find on the internet. Not actionable intelligence, but google garbage. That is the quality of what they had.
Why is that significant? At the time they were learning this, they were continuing to represent to the court that Christopher Steele was a reputable source, that his information might be reliable.
One thing they discovered that they learned early on was wrong, the seminal thing they shared with the FISA Court, they wrote in a verified FISA application that Christopher Steele had corroborated or verified that Carter Page had met with [Rosneft oil executive] Igor Sechin and [senior government official] Igor Divyekin, two senior Russians close to Putin, during a trip in July 2016. The FBI never verified that and ultimately concluded it did not happen. That is the sort of information they knew was wrong in 2017. It took us until 2019 to get the same answer.

Fired UK Ambassador Who Trash-Talked Trump Also Vouched For Christopher Steele
Sir Kim Darroch, who resigned after confidential memos were leaked in which he slammed President Trump and his administration, told a US official that Steele was "absolutely" legit.
Britain's recently resigned ambassador to the US vouched for the credibility of Christopher Steele - the former MI6 spy who cobbled together a Russian-sourced dossier full of fabrications about Donald Trump.
Sir Kim Darroch, who resigned after confidential memos were leaked in which he slammed President Trump and his administration, told a US official that Steele was "absolutely" legit, according to the Sunday Telegraph.
Today The Sunday Telegraph can also disclose that Sir Kim is said to have vouched for the credibility of Christopher Steele, the author of an explosive dossier of claims about Donald Trump's ties to Russia, in conversation with at least one US official. Asked whether Mr Steele, a former MI6 officer, was "legit", Sir Kim replied: "Absolutely". His comments later appeared in the New Yorker magazine. -Sunday Telegraph
Of note, the suspected leaker has reportedly been identified, and a foreign state has been ruled out as the culprit.
Steele was commissioned by Fusion GPS to produce the infamous dossier ultimately paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the DNC during the 2016 US election. It was later used to secure a FISA spy warrant on one-time Trump campaign aide Carter Page, and later used to smear the president in the court of public opinion.
Interestingly, a top official with the US Justice Department warned the FBI that Steele's research was inaccurate and was likely biased due to its origins as an opposition research document. As we noted in May, ten days before the FBI used the now-discredited dossier to apply for a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant to spy on Trump campaign aide Carter Page, Steele met with Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec, who took handwritten notes of the encounter.
Steele told Kavalec that Russia had a "technical/human operation run out of Moscow targeting the election," which recruited US emigres to "do hacking and recruiting. Steele added that "Payments to those recruited are made out of the Russian consulate in Miami."

MICHAEL GEATA/NULAND
Victoria Nuland's name keeps turning up.
Nuland is the former Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs - serving under John Kerry at Obama's State Department
It now appears that in mid-2016, Nuland gave the green light for FBI Agent Michael Gaeta to meet with Christopher Steele in London.
https://themarketswork.com/2018/03/14/new-details-of-victoria-nulands-role-in-the-Steele-dossier/
GEATA/EURAISA/FIFA/Steele/LORETTA LYNCH
"A little-known FBI unit played an outsized role in allowing controversial claims by a former MI6 Spy about Donald Trump to reach the highest levels of the FBI and State Department.
The Eurasian Organized Crime Unit, which at the time was headed by Michael Gaeta, specializes in investigating criminal groups from Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine.
Gaeta, an FBI agent and Assistant Legal Attaché at the US Embassy in Rome, has known the former spy, Christopher Steele-who authored the controversial dossier on then-candidate Donald Trump-since at least 2010, when Steele provided assistance in the FBI's investigation into the FIFA Corruption scandal over concerns Russia might have been engaging in bribery to host the 2018 World Cup. "
"The Eurasian Organized Crime Unit, which at the time was headed by Michael Gaeta, specializes in investigating criminal groups from Georgia, Russia, and Ukraine.
Gaeta, an FBI agent and Assistant Legal Attaché at the US Embassy in Rome, has known the former spy, Christopher Steele-who authored the controversial dossier on then-candidate Donald Trump-since at least 2010, when Steele provided assistance in the FBI's investigation into the FIFA Corruption scandal over concerns Russia might have been engaging in bribery to host the 2018 World Cup.
According to Guardian journalist Luke Harding in a Nov. 15, 2017, article, Steele played a central role in establishing the FIFA investigation:
"Steele discovered that Fifa corruption was global. It was a stunning conspiracy. He took the unusual step of briefing an American contact in Rome, the head of the FBI's Eurasian serious crime division."
Also involved in the FIFA Investigation were two other familiar names.
Loretta Lynch, who served as Attorney General from 2015 to 2017 under then-President Barack Obama, was at the time "on her second tour as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District" and was seen as an advocate for Gaeta's team:
"Loretta Lynch was the one who said, 'Go get it,'" a source told ESPN in a February 2016 article. "She was the one to speak with higher-ups in DC when that needed to happen."

MCCABE/EURAISA
There's one other central figure in the Trump-Russia Investigation who had meaningful overlap with the FBI's Eurasian Crime Squad. Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe:
"McCabe began his career as a special agent with the FBI in 1996," the FBI states on its website. "He first reported to the New York Division, where he investigated a variety of organized crime matters. In 2003, he became the supervisory special agent of the Eurasian Organized Crime Task Force."
McCabe remained with the Eurasian Squad until 2006, when he was moved to FBI Headquarters in Washington.

Fired UK Ambassador Who Trash-Talked POTUS Also Vouched For Christopher Steele
Britain's recently resigned ambassador to the US vouched for the credibility of Christopher Steele - the former MI6 spy who cobbled together a Russian-sourced dossier full of fabrications about Donald Trump.
Sir Kim Darroch, who resigned after confidential memos were leaked in which he slammed President Trump and his administration, told a US official that Steele was "absolutely" legit, according to the Sunday Telegraph.

Of note, the suspected leaker has reportedly been identified, and a foreign state has been ruled out as the culprit.
Steele was commissioned by Fusion GPS to produce the infamous dossier ultimately paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the DNC during the 2016 US election. It was later used to secure a FISA spy warrant on one-time Trump campaign aide Carter Page, and later used to smear the president in the court of public opinion.

Steele told Kavalec that Russia had a "technical/human operation run out of Moscow targeting the election," which recruited US emigres to "do hacking and recruiting. Steele added that "Payments to those recruited are made out of the Russian consulate in Miami."
Except that's a lie - as Kavalec debunked the assertion in a bracketed comment: "It is important to note that there is no Russian consulate in Miami."
Steele had also been flagged flagged for admitting that his research was political and facing an Election Day deadline, as his client was "keen to see this information come to light prior to November 8."
Notes and testimony from senior Justice Department official Bruce Ohr make clear Steele admitted early on that he was "desperate" to get Trump defeated in the election, was working in some capacity for the GOP candidate's opponent, and considered his intelligence raw and untested. Ohr testified that he alerted FBI and other senior Justice officials to these concerns in August 2016. -The Hill
Steele left his MI6 career to found his own company, Orbis Business Intelligence, with another former spy according to the Daily Mail.

Q Research General #9002: Still Over 9000 Edition
Flynn set up
In the foreground you've got Brennan and the White House (Brennan's working group), and Fusion GPS, and Nellie Ohr, and Christopher Steele etc... In the background you've got Yates, and Carlin, and Laufman, and McCord, and Weissmann (DOJ-NSD team); together with Comey, and McCabe, and Baker, and Strzok, and Page (FBI team)... and essentially the bridge, Bruce Ohr, acting as a carrier smidgen taking information from the working group to the FBI to the DOJ....
These are the basic elements of the seditious small group within the DOJ-NSD and FBI.
Additionally, this gets more interesting when you think about the scale of what they were doing, and how intensely they were committed to it.
When the network was failing in their impeachment effort; when the insurance policy was not working; and when they were falling back in logical sequence to various defensive positions throughout 2018; where did David Laufman resurface?
See the scale of this?
New York Field office FBI agent Monica McLean was the handler who initiated her best friend Dr. Christine Blasey-Ford against Supreme Court nominee Judge Kavanaugh. Who was Monica McLean's lawyer?.... David Laufman.
Who was Blasey-Ford's lawyer?.... Michael Bromwich; he's also the lawyer for Andrew McCabe.
Why?
What possible reason would the same 'small group' participants have for going from the 2016 election effort, and 2017 impeachment effort, to the 2018 SCOTUS manipulation effort? [Also intended to influence the 2018 mid-term]
The "small group" activity was/is so illegal (literally seditious), it was a reasonable part of the concentric defense to try and block a SCOTUS nomination and influence the outcome of the 2018 mid-term election.
That's the scale of this.

Q Research General #8952: Maybe 10 or 14 Edition
Rabbit Holes! How to get lost on a day off.
So, playing around with Gematria can cause much humor…and shock.
So anyway, a recent tweet by President Trump got me playing. The tweet was an rt of a hannity re: "FBI's Christopher Steele (FAKE) Story Falls Apart….."
So taking the caps from that tweet: FBICSFAKESFAFIMCWFBFISAJSTH
and putting them through a Gemtria calculator it came up as 2089 in the Jewish Gematria.
I could only get about halfway through the results as I was laughing so hard but I can see how playing with Gematria can get - shall we say "certain" - messages, out. Here's just a few that match with 2089, pick one or two:
We Are Here To Make The Impossible Possible
What Goes Around Comes Around
Global Really Should Read Glow Baal
Satan Tells You To Love Him
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
Egotists Do Not Take Criticism Well
Dulse Base Is An Alien Military Underground Base

Remember over a year and a half ago when Q said that Huma was going to be arrested immediately? Back when we really didn't know the names of people like Christopher Steele and others who were illegally spying on Trump?
Whatever happened with that?

Answer: CBS_Herridge tweet: https://archive.fo/86qHA SCOOP: A person familiar with the matter tells @CBSNews that Bruce Ohr is no longer working at DOJ. He resigned the day before he was going to be terminated by DOJ over his conduct cited in IG Horowitz report. Ohr was faulted for becoming a kind of backchannel linking dossier 8:50 AM - 14 Oct 2020 author Christopher Steele to the FBI after Steele's termination by Bureau as a source. Timing: Ohr left DOJ in recent weeks + seeking his comment

Answer: Think plane tracking? So is the DOJ plane in the UK picking up another passenger besides the CP king? Christopher Steele is key to the dossier & basis for the FISA, and would probably have an indictment. Is he getting shipped over here to the US? Are we going to be seeing him in front of the Senate? UK is helping to DECLAS FISA. [SCREENSHOT OF WIKILEAKS TWEET RE: N996GA (related to WIKILEAKS tweet, archived above); SCREENSHOT OF Q POST >>5928012 3-27-19 RE: Think plane tracking]

Answer: ARCHIVE FOX NEWS: Court files reveal role of McCain, aide in spreading anti-Trump dossier By Adam Shaw https://archive.fo/8jpML "In a newly unsealed declaration from September, former senior counterintelligence FBI agent Bill Priestap confirmed that the FBI received a copy of the first 33 pages of the dossier in December 2016 from McCain. In another filing, David Kramer – a former State Department official and McCain associate – said in a Dec. 13, 2017, deposition that the dossier was given to him by author and former British spy Christopher Steele, which he then provided to more than a dozen journalists at outlets including CNN, BuzzFeed and The Washington Post. The details were first reported by The Daily Caller."

- Question:
Answer: Special Prosecutor Tapped by Sessions to Investigate FISA Abuses HAS NOT Interviewed Bruce Ohr In March, Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced he would not be appointing a second special counsel to investigate crimes committed by Obama’s FBI and DOJ. Rather, AG Sessions revealed U.S. Attorney John Huber will be the ‘top federal prosecutor’ who will be investigating FISA abuses. U.S. Attorney John Huber was first appointed to his position by Barack Obama in 2015. Five months into John Huber’s FISA abuse investigation and he still has not interviewed twice-demoted DOJ official Bruce Ohr. Ohr is a key player in the FISA abuse scandal, so why hasn’t he been interviewed by Huber or Mueller?? Bruce Ohr was acting as a backchannel for dossier author Christopher Steele after the FBI terminated him in November of 2016 for breaking protocol by leaking to the media. “More of a reason to wonder how effective a US Attorney [John Huber] can be cleaning up corruption in Washington when he’s based in Salt Lake City,†investigative reporter, Paul Sperry said. Investigative reporter John Solomon also revealed Tuesday that Robert Mueller hasn’t interviewed Bruce Ohr either. Bruce Ohr arrived at Capitol Hill Tuesday morning for a closed-door grilling from House Oversight and House Judiciary members over his contacts with dossier author Christopher Steele. GOP lawmakers said Tuesday afternoon that Bruce Ohr was being cooperative and answering questions at the closed-door deposition. Bruce Ohr, former FBI lawyer Lisa Page and Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson may be called back to testify together to iron out the discrepancies in their testimonies. What exactly is Mueller and Huber doing if they are not questioning key players like Bruce Ohr?? Mueller’s investigation into Russian “collusion†appears to be designed not to protect the country but to protect his former FBI/DOJ regime and their political espionage crimes, says Sperry. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2018/08/special-prosecutor-tapped-by-sessions-to-investigate-fisa-abuses-has-not-interviewed-bruce-ohr/📠[SCREENSHOTS OF PAUL SPERRY TWEETS]

Answer: DEMS FEARING MUELLER NOW? MARK PENN: “Well, look, I spent a year fighting Ken Starr and I think any reasonable person looking at what happened here says this investigation had no foundation and whatever foundation it had was not only wrong but corrupt. I think Christopher Steele was part of the FBI when he leaked, lied, and then was fired. Page and Strzok are clearly biased. The head of the FBI was clearly biased. The head of the CIA appeared to be doing illegal leaks as well. This whole thing was corrupt. There is a doctrine called the fruits of the poisonous tree, that says when investigations get started like, this when searches and seizures are done on this basis, they should be thrown out. I think that’s probably the best way to stop this thing because, otherwise, we are going all the way to the end and I don’t think we should waste another year here.†(screenshot of GatewayPundit.com article)

Steele seemed interesting, if unsettling. A former Marine intelligence officer, Steele moved to the CIA and served three overseas tours in clandestine intelligence, at least one of them "in a combat environment" in Central America.
