Former FBI agent Peter Strzok, ousted from his position after the discovery of text messages containing anti-Trump comments, admitted a dossier on collusion between the president's campaign and Russia during the 2016 election contained information that led officials on a "wild goose chase."
Strzok told The Atlantic magazine that the dossier, written by former British spy Christopher Steele one of the agency's key informants in the Russia probe "was very typical of information that the FBI often receives."
"It comes from several sources, including some suspect sources. Some of it is bull----, and some of it is rumor, and some of it is disinformation," Strzok said. "From our perspective, some of it was a distraction."

We used it anyway.
Sure it’s loaded with BS, but the FISA court will still fix them up with warrants.
He’s certainly singing a different song of excuses now isn’t he?
He was in charge of counter intelligence and he ran on a wild goose chase after disinformation and rumors?
After all why would you expect the FBI to be careful about one of the major presidential candidates? Just follow those gooses!
Hes a Liar.
He made up the connection of Papadopolous to Russia when there was none. It was the Get Trump Op. They had to get Trump.
Halper, Mifsud, Ohr and his whoa Nellie, McCabes wife. Yates.
They terminated Steele as an informant - and they went back to him because they had to get Trump.
They only kept going back to their failed and desperate boy - because they felt they had to Get Trump.
yeah, riiight, even though you knew it was a wild goose!..................
The Podestas literally made Billions doing what Manafort did - and they werent registered as Foreign agents - yet theyre good. No problem.
One has to remember Strzok was the Fixer in the Hillary case before the Dossier.
Now the defense is that these paragons of virtue and professionalism got suckered?
I smell a whiff of modified limited hangout.
No, it did not. They created and used it as intended. They were not ‘victims’ of it as he is trying to claim. Remember, he called it the ‘insurance policy’.
It was an excuse for a coup. That simple.
Exactly. They knew it was garbage, but garbage was enough to get them a warrant, and then they were certain that once they could wiretap Trump, they would find the real dirt.
The only problem with the plan was that Trump was clean and there wasn’t any dirt to be found!
It was the knowingly fraudulent basis for your false charges to tarnish Trump.
Into the Wayback Machine for that one!
I smell a whiff of modified limited hangout.
Yup. He is scared.
Some “geese” are more easily led than others .... especially those with fatal cases of SFB!!!
No, Peter Strzok sent the FBI on a wild goose chase with the baseless accusations.
