It is also now clear that Simpson + Steele used Ohr as a backdoor to F_I through D_J once Steele was canned by bureau besides cover for absurdity Simpson would have anything of value that wasn’t already known or available to Strzok etc.
Yes, passing the “Information” through a high DoJ official (Ohr) was clearly an attempt to make it a bit more respectable.
That way it did not appear to come straight from the Hillary campaign.
Also, having the information passed around amongst “Career” officials was a way the political layer (Sally Yates and above) could claim their hands were clean.
We know this was a lie.
We know from Q and the President himself that Obama ordered the wiretapping—probably far EARLIER than the bogus FISA apps were filed. The FISA apps were probably damage control, and the dossier was cooked up to give them something to put in the belated applications.
I will be anxiously awaiting the Yates transcript to come out. It will be interesting how she attempts to maintain her WALL OF IGNORANCE about all this amazing activity by her direct reports over a period of a year or so.
Yates appears to be the firewall between the political layer and all this skullduggery. Hence, Yates may be the shortest path to LL and Obama.
Oh ... and one more thing ... the Ohr transcript leaves me wondering if Christopher Steele (and other Brits) may have been duped as well. Just sayin’. AND IF SO, BY WHOM?
Only one possible answer: Obama and high officials of U.S. intelligence (i.e., Brennan, Clapper) led them on.
