The evidence used by the FBI to secure FISA warrants on Trump adviser Carter Page was known to be suspiciously inaccurate 10 days before procuring the warrants, but the FBI used them anyway. In fact, the FBI swore before the FISA judge that the information had been corroborated when it clearly had not.
Information had been given to the FBI demonstrating the motivations behind the Steele Dossier were clearly political and prompted by the Clinton campaign. They knew this going in, but without actual evidence to back their FISA request, they ran with the false story in hopes it would yield fruit. When it didnt, they quickly began covering up their activities and tried to justify the warrants with evidence collected after the fact, evidence that itself was tainted.
According to John Solomon at The Hill:
The concerns were flagged in a typed memo and in handwritten notes taken by Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec on Oct. 11, 2016.
Her observations were recorded exactly 10 days before the FBI used Steele and his infamous dossier to justify securing a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant to spy on Trump campaign adviser Carter Page and the campaigns contacts with Russia in search of a now debunked collusion theory.
It is important to note that the FBI swore on Oct. 21, 2016, to the FISA judges that Steeles reporting has been corroborated and used in criminal proceedings and the FBI has determined him to be reliable and was unaware of any derogatory information pertaining to their informant, who simultaneously worked for Fusion GPS, the firm paid by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and the Clinton campaign to find Russian dirt on Trump.
Bottom Line:
The FBI clearly knew the Steele Dossier was a fabricated political attack commissioned by the Clinton campaign, yet swore before the FISA judge that it was accurate and corroborated. Its time to investigate the investigators now.
Why do you suppose foreign governments were willingly complicit in the “takedown”?
**************
A very salient point that seems to have been lost due to the focus on the abuses going on inside our domestic agencies. This foreign collusion (and that’s exactly what it was) in itself should set off alarm bells in our republic. No doubt that our “allies” have pleaded with Trump to be reticent about this. But their day of exposure and reckoning is fast approaching.
Didn’t Wray work at the same law firm as Yates?
That's crazy talk.
Susan Rice wrote a memo to herself documenting that Obama told his stooges to do everything "by the book".
Therefore, everything was done by the book. It is written.
And who could doubt Susan Rice?
Are you one of the ones that said AG Barr was a deep state hack? That was the prevailing opinion out here beyond the trees at one point, if I recall correctly.
Turns out he's now the hero of our nation.
I wonder if you guys ever get tired of being wrong. Isn't it getting embarrassing?
Stay tuned for more being wrong.
Ping
Me when coney Lynch Hillary and Obama are perp-walked
The fbi has zero credibility and should be relegated to the ash heap of history
Why do you suppose foreign governments were willingly complicit in the takedown?
Because NOTHING must ever threaten the destruction of Western Civilization by 3rd world invasion. Trump was a threat to all of them.
Perpwalk ping list. Bat lady keeping a list.
LOL! Despite your MAGA addition, I have hated that song since the first time I ever heard it. If it comes on I can move at the speed of light to change the station or turn off the offending item.
And he still is. Hence the frantic convulsions of the derps trying to take him down.
This FBI/DOJ drama is a sideshow.
#TheWarToSaveTheWorld
For many years if not decades or until death do us part.
Not interested until coup leaders are hauled away in handcuffs. John Bolton’s war mongering is taking the eye off that necessity.
It was all known from the beginning. This was the infamous ‘Insurance Policy’ Strok and Page talked about.
Nellie Ohr, [RUSSIAN SPECIALIST for Fusion GPS and former CIA], wife of FBI Bruce Ohr, wrote the dossier, gave one copy to Steele [Brit MI6 CIA associate], one to hubby and they disseminated it ALL OVER DC, knowing it would get back to them eventually so they could proclaim it ‘legit’ to the FISA court.
When McCain got his copy, he ran with it straight to the FBI, like a fool, a gave it to them as ‘evidence’, not knowing it came from them in the first place.
All the pieces are coming together.................
Haha. Yea, but it's catchy and can be used to make a point other than what the author intended.
I'm a tricky one.

“Turns out he’s now the hero of our nation”
On what basis do you make this claim?
Wasn’t it taken from opposition research from the Clinton campaign, and massaged by Hillary prior to that?
It goes directly back to her sticky little fingers.
I'm not so sure McCain was a fool. I think he knew exactly what he was doing.
He was a full-fledged member of the derp state.
#MayHeRotInHell
I believe, if I read correcly, that Lennon was starting to turn a corner more towards a conservative view point near the time of his death. I could have misunderstood what I misread though. :-) Of course there can never be any forgiving for foisting yoko OH-NO! on the world.
What, you haven't been paying attention?
Even the people beyond the trees acknowledge Barr isn't a derp state operative.
Most people who are paying attention realize that he's going after the derps.
Or maybe I don't understand your point? Do you have one?
