Washington (CNN)The FBI last year used a dossier of allegations of Russian ties to Donald Trump's campaign as part of the justification to win approval to secretly monitor a Trump associate, according to US officials briefed on the investigation.
The dossier has also been cited by FBI Director James Comey in some of his briefings to members of Congress in recent weeks, as one of the sources of information the bureau has used to bolster its investigation, according to US officials briefed on the probe.
This includes approval from the secret court that oversees the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) to monitor the communications of Carter Page, two of the officials said. Last year, Page was identified by the Trump campaign as an adviser on national security. . .
. . .Comey's briefings to lawmakers stand in contrast to efforts in recent months by the bureau and US intelligence agencies to try to distance themselves from the dossier. . .

Is it possible Comey is just dim-witted?
I would say Comey is Dirty-witted.
Compromised
Comey is a Democrat mole. He should be investigated.
Dem mole? All due respect, he did serious damage to Hillary with that last email look at the end of October.
From all appearances, Comey is probably dirty....Why is he still employed by the government?
You all are missing something.
It is not the job of the FBI to protect the citizens from the government. That ‘thinking’ mainly came from everyone watching THE FBI on TV.
The FBI’s job is to protect the government from the citizens. Comey is doing that job.
Comey is a “DIRTY COP”.
Comey is out to damage everyone. It's what he does.
Comey may well turn up with a bullet in the back of his head, his own hand on the pistol, in Ft Marcy Park... He is in as deep as was Vince Foster and we know how that turned out dealing with Hillary back then too.
Comey should have been fired the day Trump was sworn in.
He’s not dim witted, he’s CORRUPT.
He had no choice but "look" since it was leaking all over the place. He did damage control... he "looked" and then promptly claimed to find nothing actionable.
What can one say about Comey? That he’s: Duplicitous? Cowardly? Dense? Treacherous? In other words, doesn’t he check all the boxes required to become an FBI Director?
two bullets, just to be sure.
The source of the Trump dossier was also on the FBI payroll, as they tried to pay him for the information.
Is it possible Comey is just dim-witted?
Let's do a little analysis...
Barack Obama identified himself in his own autobiography as a Marxist.
During his entire two terms, he never nominated or appointed anyone who was not a fellow traveler.
Obama nominated Comey to be FBI Director.
What does that tell you?
The dossier must be the only thing he can grab off the shelf as justification for spying on Trump for Obama and Hillary.
Did he have a choice? Anthony Weiner's computer had lots of Huma's e-mails on them and the NYPD had it. He needed to get in front of that before NYPD could leak it if onlyso he could, a few days later, exonerate her. In the end it didn't work, the damage was done.
