that's what we need to find out. It's bizarre the FBI would want to to continue paying for just "opposition research"
Equally weird is why they took the Steele dossier synopsis to POTUS Trump in a 2 page briefing.
Recall what Clapper initially said about it:
Clapper is a known 2x liar. I wouldn't tust anything he says as far as I could throw him.
A couple days ago he changed his tune:
Clapper is part of the grand collusion I mentioned earlier.
He's a lying POS who only cares about Russiaphobia, knee capping Trump, and protecting the Deep State.
Hence his crap about "it doesn't matter who paid for it." It matters greatly.
The FBI offering to pay for it means they are apt to defend it's accuracy.
By defending it, and refusing to call it out as the salacious trash it is -tells me they very well used it as a basis for the "Russian Collusion " intelligence investigation they had going on -and still do parallel to Mueller's SC.
Basically the FBI uses fake news by saying the whole thing isn't utterly fallacious to drive their anti-Trump agenda
