Newly Declassified Document Indicates FBI Misled Congress on Reliability of Steele Dossier
Senate ^

Posted on 08/09/2020 8:53:29 AM PDT by janetjanet998

WASHINGTON – Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today released a newly declassified FBI document that indicates the Bureau misled the Senate Intelligence Committee in 2018 about the Steele dossier’s Primary Sub-source and, therefore, the reliability of the Steele dossier.

“This document clearly shows that the FBI was continuing to mislead regarding the reliability of the Steele dossier. The FBI did to the Senate Intelligence Committee what the Department of Justice and FBI had previously done to the FISA Court: mischaracterize, mislead and lie. The characterizations regarding the dossier were completely out of touch with reality in terms of what the Russian sub-source actually said to the FBI.

“What does this mean? That Congress as well as the FISA Court was lied to about the reliability of the Russian sub-source. I will be asking FBI Director Wray to provide me all the details possible about how the briefing was arranged and who provided it.

“Inspector General Horowitz’s team found this briefing document. Inspector General Horowitz and his team deserve great credit for uncovering systematic fraud at Department of Justice surrounding the Carter Page FISA warrant. I’m also very appreciative of the Department of Justice’s release of the FBI document used to brief the Senate Intelligence Committee.”

And? News earlier in the Week.

BREAKING: After 16 months of investigating, special #Spygate prosecutor John Durham STILL has not interviewed James Comey, Andrew McCabe, John Brennan or James Clapper, and Clapper’s attorney reportedly said Durham’s office has assured him that he will not be interviewed at all.

This was done during the current FBI Director’s watch. Time for him to go.


I’m sure it’s a total coincidence that Graham waited until the Senate was on recess to drop this news of FBI criminality.

Roger Stone got a SWAT team, arrest and conviction for “lying to Congress”. OTOH, Chris Wray gets a request for information from Graham.

There is something Rotten in Denmark here. The GOP is sadly mistaken if they think they can hold this tiger by the tale. The Alabama Senate primary should have been a wake up call for Graham but apparently not.

All of this is old news to us, but I am thrilled that Lindsey is making a big deal out of this, especially calling that insipid robot Wray, who deserves so much to be humiliated.

Sorry to change the subject, but I just got an email from TA DA...Paul Ryan pleading for funds to win back the House!

Anyone else get this shocking request?

I think he turned on the sugar so she would admit Comey was a creep. IF he had been nasty, she may have clamed up.
