Just the first turn of the valve on the main swamp drain.

For those of us who have followed closely the Trump collusion meme, these are no real surprise, but for those who only have the MSM as their source, these revelations are brand new.

The fact that the Steele Dossier was used to get the FISA warrants is a very big deal. It destroys the whole basis for the Mueller investigation. And the FBI knew that the dossier was funded by the DNC and Hillary campaign and did not reveal that to the FISA court. Another big deal.

Yes. And it's over. What we'll see now is a lot of finger-pointing and eventual prison for Comey and his friends. Here's why:

The document shows the "Russia investigation" began and continued as a political hack job and the guys at the top knew it and concealed the fact, knowingly presenting tainted evidence to a court of law--and possibly lying in response to questions from the bench. Unless they judge-shopped beforehand to avoid such obvious questions, which is likely.

These look like the key points to me, and I'm confident they can be backed up from testimony transcripts, or Nunes wouldn't have written the memo, Trump wouldn't have approved it, and the Dems and Justice wouldn't have been so desperate to suppress it:

* The Steele dossier formed an essential part of the intial and all three renewal FISA applications against Carter Page.

Think about that. The Steele dossier is fiction, and is widely acknowledged to be fiction on all sides.

* Andrew McCabe confirmed that no FISA warrant would have been sought from the FISA Court without the Steele dossier information.

This is equally damning: All they had to go with was partisan fiction, and they went to court with it. Incredible.

* The political origins of the Steele dossier were known to senior DOJ and FBI officials, but excluded from the FISA applications.

They lied. A complete description of the origins of evidence is always required in court.

* DOJ official Bruce Ohr met with Steele beginning in the summer of 2016 and relayed to DOJ information about Steele's bias.

The problems with the evidence were known to the DOJ when they made the (false) FISA app.

They're done. Trump isn't going to let this go, and that's the only factor needed.

Here's the crime.

The political origins of the Steele dossier were known to senior DOJ and FBI officials, but excluded from the FISA applications.
