    FBI Failed to Inform FISA Court that Steele Dossier was Unreliable: Report




    The Justice Department’s inspector general has concluded that the FBI omitted crucial details in its requests for warrants to surveil Trump campaign associate Carter Page, saying the agency neglected to mention that some of the information the warrant applications were based on was shaky.

    Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s yet unpublished draft report found that the FBI did not inform the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court that the controversial Steele dossier, cited in applications to spy on Page, was unreliable, according to the Washington Post.

    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 FBI found Steele’s information about a Russian government connection to be dubious but declined to mention as much in the later applications to the FISA court for warrants to surveil Page.


    Horowitz also found that an FBI lawyer doctored an email used in the warrant application, a potential crime prosecutors are now investigating.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    Wrong, even Nunes' whacked out memo cited they notified the Court on the potential political implications, even though "twilight Uber to the White House" Devin tried to hide it in a footnote, #18 I believe, if you read primary sources rather than listening to the radio others wouldn't have to educate you so often

    I predicted the report would find problems, but as I also predicted, none of it would be to the degree all the Trumptards had hoped. It’s just like other investigations that Trumpublicans placed so much hope in.

    Their criminal scheme is falling apart and from what I hear, these newly acquired phone records are going to blow it all up in their ugly faces. Parnas has audio and video so that should be interesting. Nunes is in up to his eyeballs and was supposed to have recused himself a long time ago.

    This is the headline of the Washington Post report where this story ultimately came from:

    Barr’s handpicked prosecutor [Durham] tells IG he can’t back right-wing theory that Russia case was U.S. intelligence setup

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...2b1_story.html

    Naturally, the OP doesn't mention that.

    Durham is done and found zip. Horowitz is done and found zip. The last great hopes for the reds are gone.
    The Steele dossier was shown to be very solid. Perhaps imperfect, but still excellent.
