Byron York: Trump dossier probes now include possible State Department involvement
Washington Examiner ^ | 1/16/2018 | Byron York

Congressional investigations into the Trump dossier have so far been focused on the FBI and Justice Department. They still are, but now investigators are also looking into a possible Obama State Department role in the collection and dissemination of sensational and still-unverified allegations against candidate Donald Trump gathered by a former British spy working for the Hillary Clinton campaign.

In addition to having contacts in the Obama Justice Department and FBI, that former spy, Christopher Steele, was also well-connected with the Obama State Department. A book published in November by a correspondent at the Guardian, "Collusion: Secret meetings, dirty money, and how Russia helped Donald Trump win," noted that Steele's 2010 work on the World Cup soccer corruption investigation won him the trust not only of the FBI, but the State Department as well. From author Luke Harding:

Simpson, as quoted in the article, is full of it!Steele is just an opportunist out for big $$$. They all know the US is the place to get it!

This is going to sweep them all up. There is no way Dept. of State did not know what was going on with Iran, Hezbollah, the Dossier, and everything else.

“Can somebody wake up Rip Van Sessions?”

You must not understand. According to some people, Jeff is the Child of Destiny, with Fate enticing Trump to run and get elected president solely for the purpose of appointing Jeff as Attorney General.

I believe poster is referring to CFSB which has set up a shadow government where the rogue staff communicate through a chat room and Fauxcohontas’ just sent a letter to the “acting director” after Court ruled that Mulvaney is rather properly assuming position - or that Nellie Ohr got ham radio license

If the rats find anything remotely connected, the innuendo will be out in the media, regardless of the illegality of the FISA-dossier. This is what they are trying to quickly find. Satan is working overtime on this one.

FBI and Justice Department are starting to look like the old KGB fast actions required.

Excellent summary of what is happening! Thanks

The modis operandi of the left is to shut down the DOJ when a Republican is in office and politicize the DOJ when a Democrat is in office. Sessions recusing himself has kept the DOJ open for business.

Everybody really needs to step back and breathe. Hillary Clinton is a distraction at this point. DOJ will get around to her and more specifically to Obama once the dossier and FISA warrant is addressed. Personally, I think Obama using a fake dossier to get a FISA warrant to spy on Trump takes precedence over Hillary and is a direct threat to our personal freedom and national security.

Hillary is going down. Not for the dossier, but for Uranium one and the Clinton Foundation Pay to Play.

Be patient and stay tuned. We are standing in line to buy tickets just before entering the theater.

The curtain hasn’t even gone up yet.
