Is there a damn thing in this “report” that was not in Bongino’s book two years ago? In Andrew McCarhty’s book last year?

Great point... And some of them seems so surprised by the whole deal.. Their either liars or they truly are stupid..

I think the IG found out about the forgery by Clinesmith - though we already knew that Pages contacts with the Russians were being mischaracterized.

We knew that the Dossier was very, very, unverified, but did we know that the FBI had actually verified it was bogus with the primary source (and reported him as open and honest without including that he was open and honest that it was bartalk, gossip, and jests)?

BTW,

Here is a strong hint that the investigation was opened LONG before the time the FBI says it was.

March 2, 2016 Carter Page meeting – during a meeting where they are discussing him testifying against the three Russians in the case that resulted from his informing between 2008-2013, Page advises he recently volunteered for the Trump campaign.

Remember that they got the *first* FISA warrant AFTER Page had already left the Trump Campaign.

The lawyer goes back after the meeting and asks whether he has a clearance, and inquires as to what kind of investigation to open on him.
