OUTED: FBI Made At Least 11 Payments To Christopher Steele
Diamond and Silk ^ | August 9, 2018 | Nick Arama -

Posted on 08/11/2018 10:28:22 AM PDT by george76

FBI had actually paid Christopher Steele, the man who put together the infamous unverified dossier targeting President Donald Trump during the campaign, in 11 separate cash payments in 2016.

This was despite being admonished in February 2016 and despite the fact that he was being paid with money from the Democrats that went through the law firm Perkins Coie to Fusion GPS to Steele for opposition research to gather against Trump...

FBI was using taxpayer dollars to pay for opposition research and unverified smears on Trump. In the words of FBI official Peter Strzok, sounds like an “insurance policy.”

...

the FBI wanted to continue the relationship even after the election and was going to pay him more, but for the fact that Steele violated their rule about leaking to the press that he was working for the FBI.

...

Yet despite the questions about Steele, despite the fact that James Comey himself called the dossier “salacious and unverified,” the FBI used the dossier to get multiple FISA warrants to surveil Carter Page before and after the election. And the judges were never told about the Clinton connection to Steele and the dossier.

...

The Mueller investigation has spent millions to find no Trump collusion.

So where is the investigation into the DNC, Hillary Clinton and Obama administration actions here?

The problem is the cabal has been running FBI,CIA and who knows how many other govt. agencies including the SES. With that kind of top down corruption stuff like this is bound to happen.

Maybe if you polygraph enough people use all the new psych techniques that determine who is dirty and who is not you might be able to reinvent the FBI,I don't know.

11 separate cash payments

Nothing to hide there. Did the bank comply with the Bank Secrecy Act for withdrawals and any deposit of $10,000 or greater in cash?

Were any transactions by either the FBI or Steele structured?

Was there compliance with Federal law that all cash payments in excess of $10,000 must be reported to the IRS?

These are major Federal Laws for which many have gone to prison such as J. Dennis Hastert!

salacious and unverified,”

I love this word "unverified" as if their was a failure to do due diligence to acertain the asserted facts. Much of the so-called "dosier" was transparent fiction. It's like a 12 year-old cribbing "Dear Penthouse" letters.

What does it tell us about FISA court judges when there is a "willing suspension of disbelief" on their part. It's like it must be true because if it is true then we are well-rid of this damnable Trump fellow. And I can believe the story because he has certainly been pissing on our party here in the swamp.

And, it sure sounds to me like the FBI has been lying to itself, which is about the worst federal crime one can commit. They need to be made an example of.

It certainly seems like there isn’t.

The reality is that most Americans have never been to DC or worked for a Federal Agency.

They have absolutely NO IDEA what this CRIMINAL Federal enterprise is up to with the 4 TRILLION dollars they EXTORT from those outside DC under penalty of imprisonment.

Hundreds of thousands of WASHINGTONIAN IMBECILES in DC and elsewhere making six figures and working HARD to ensure that the GRAVY TRAIN is on time.

THEM AGAINST US.

Notice the conniptions the running dog press had when Trump said he trusted Putin more than his own Intelligence Agencies.

The JIG is up, but Trump has no actual power.

The situation is dire.

Mark Steyn subbing for Rush on Friday, laid this whole farce out better than Rush has ever done. He used Feinstein's mandarin spy as the internally-approved, decades-long Deep State control agent, to contrast the Deep State failed coup against President Trump.

The essence of the assertion was, why was Feinswine notified by the FBI that she had a Chinese agent on her payroll (forever), whereas President Trump was never notifed that Page or Papadopoulos -- who had truly peripheral roles -- might have been working for Russian vanguard groups.

The fact that neither were working for Russian vanguard groups does not relieve the FBI from dutifully reporting their suspicions.

This is the point where Steyn had a swing-and-a-miss, as he did not press on this obvious fact: This PLA operative was 'only uncovered after decades' on Feinswine's payroll demands only one interpretation -- that she was told it was time to dump her Chinese agent before President Trump made a grind of it in order to unseat her in her 2018 election.

“If Cankles had won, we would know none of this.”

Some reverse to one of Mutti’s favorite expressions; “never anything so bad, there’s not something good about it.”

Woodrow Wilson saddled us with the blood-sucking Fed.

Or, George. For 9/11 on his watch.

Though I would not argue it couldn’t be Bill, for selling us out to the Chinese.

Then again, Hussein was the extreme provocation which triggered mutiny and a military operation to install the current administration.

Seems there’s an abundance of credible choices.
