Bruce Ohr wrote that Christopher Steele (author of the defamatory dossier) was "very concerned about James Comey's firing -- afraid they will be EXPOSED." What would they be exposed for? Spurring a corrupt witch hunt against President (@kayleighmcenany)

Republicans are to allege that Ohr played a key role in selling the dossier, commissioned by Fusion GPS and paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee. They are likely to ask why Ohr broke with protocol and kept up communication with its author, Steele, long after the FBI fired him as a source in late 2016 due to his contacts with the media.

Text messages obtained and reviewed by Fox News show that Steele also tried to use Ohr as a go-between with Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

“We are frustrated with how long this reengagement with the Bureau and Mueller is taking,” Steele wrote to Ohr. “Anything you could do to accelerate the process would be much appreciated.”

Months later, Ohr confirmed to Steele that he had passed along his questions to Mueller’s team. The Republican-led House Intelligence Committee found that Steele effectively used Ohr as a back channel for communications after his termination.

“I don’t know if it's improper but I want to know who at DOJ knew and it certainly looks like he continued to meet with Mr. Steele after the FBI had terminated their relationship with Mr. Steele,” Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, told Fox News.

When they see it they will be appalled what happened with in our FBI and DOJ which should never happen in a constitutional republic,” Meadows said.

The controversy has even reached the White House, where President Trump has weighed in and floated revoking Ohr’s security clearance.
Investigators are also probing Ohr’s relationship with Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson. Ohr’s wife Nellie worked at Fusion as a Russian specialist and did research that formed part of the dossier. Government officials are not allowed to take actions in their official capacity that financially benefit family members, and Nellie was understood to be receiving significant income from Fusion GPS.

Ohr has become a key point of contention for Republicans and President Trump, who see the revelations about Ohr as the latest development that calls into question the FBI’s actions that led to the beginning of the Russia probe. The dossier was used by federal officials to justify the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant on Trump aide Carter Page.

“The fundamentals don't change the fact that a top Department of Justice official’s wife is working for the firm the Clintons hired to put together the dossier and the FBI uses that dossier that they’re getting from Bruce Ohr ... to then go get the warrant to spy on the Trump campaign,” Jordan said. “So that’s a big concern, who at the DOJ knew that?"

Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C., said on Fox News' “America’s Newsroom” Tuesday that they want to declassify documents relating to the case so the American people can judge the FBI and DOJ’s actions themselves.

Yes, you seem very concerned about everything, but Russians meddling and hacking our systems.

This is about Russian meddling.

[Getin the ring]

I think the reason for firing Comey was WAY overdue, and not many humans on the planet don't know that by now.

Of course moonbats, another story

Russian meddling is SO passé. All the cool kids are now looking at the corrupt DoJ/FBI under Obama

Hillary and her friends in the media influenced the election by colluding to push Trump stories during the nomination process. Podesta's phished emails revealed this and it's never been disputed. And Hillary along with the DNC colluded to screw Bernie Sanders, another example of influencing the election.

I'd be a lot more inclined to listen to you caution about the Russians if you had even once mentioned the above meddling.

Rep. Swalwell: "If they know, why won't they investigate this shit?"





Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell
Let me get this right: @HouseGOP went so far to make a list of objectionable conduct by @realDonaldTrump, are telling themselves this will be investigated by @HouseDemocrats, and that’s why GOP must stay in charge? Umm, so if they know, why won’t they investigate this shit?

Vox @voxdotcom
Instead of investigating Trump scandals, House Republicans made a list of all the Trump scandals they fear Democrats will investigate if they win this fallhttps://t.co/JgyOTZVATT

I voted for Bernie in the primary. They are investigating this, you guys are just impatient. These things take time.

Trump admitted to it once and so has Dan Coates and others in his administration.

Are you saying Mueller is investigating? If not, who is? I wasn't aware any democrats here cared about Hillary meddling in the election process.

Steele's bias against Trump was known by the FBI before the 1st FISA app was filed and was never disclosed by Ohr. McCabe, Stzok, Page knew. And, if McCabe knew, then you KNOW that Comey knew. What a swamp!

No, worse, the SDNY, a Mueller referral.
