Steele dossier firm Fusion GPS ordered to spill the beans by federal judge

It's revealing you parrot a Russian propaganda news site, tovarishch.
.

is the WaPo a Russian propaganda site? They are reporting it as well.

Lots of actual news outlets are reporting on it....CNN must have just forgotten...

I don't see any of the networks that are pushing the story, reporting on this. How interesting....they are complicit......they are official propaganda machines for the leftwing deep state.

Well, you have to give Fox News time to get their feed from their comrades at RT.

Ah. Here we go: Fusion GPS ordered to give deposition in civil suit against BuzzFeed, Christopher Steele

 

[ColonelAngus]

Hillary’s campaign paid for the dossier, and then it was used to spy on Trump and begin the Mueller investigation.

Just disgusting....Steele was paid $160,000 to create the Trump dossier for Fusion GPS. The Hillary Clinton presidential campaign and Democratic National Committee financed the work. So the FBI and Justice Department used opposition research from a presidential campaign to launch an investigation into that campaign's political opponent — a likely illegal use of federal government surveillance for political purposes.

Steele dossier firm Fusion GPS ordered to spill the beans by federal judge

A federal judge has ordered opposition research firm Fusion GPS to answer a series of questions on the Steele dossier, which contained unverified allegations against Donald Trump, and helped start the ‘Russiagate’ probe.
The ruling was issued by a US district judge in Florida on Tuesday, in a defamation lawsuit filed by a Russian tech executive against BuzzFeed News, which published the full, unverified dossier in January 2017. Multiple other outlets, including CNN and the New York Times, declined to publish the dossier, as they could not verify its claims.

Now, Fusion GPS will have to answer a wide-ranging series of questions; about the Democrat-connected law firm that requested the dossier, about the efforts the company made to fact-check its allegations, and about the man who actually compiled it; former British spy Christopher Steele.

So far the Steele Dossier has proven to be accurate. Who paid for it is immaterial. Since Steele was a private contractor, and FusionGPS there was no law violated.

Unlike some politicians that have directly colluded with a foreign government:

Logan Act - Wikipedia

And to the Bozo that's asked how many people switched their vote from Clinton to Trump becuase of Russian government interference:

Probably close to zero, if not zero. However what Russia's interference did do is to increase the anti-Clinton sentiment that resulted in a larger pro-Trump turnout than there would have otherwise been. So it most probably did affect the election.

 

[g5000]

This story is about a Russian who is suing Buzzfeed for defamation. The Russian, Aleksej Gubarev, is named in the Steele dossier as one of the Russians involved in hacking and interfering in the 2016 election against the Democrats.

When Mueller indicted a bunch of Russians, Gubarev noticed he was not among those named, and so now he is suing Buzzfeed for publishing the Steele dossier.

If the Steele dossier showed valid evidence of illegal activity, then it's the FBI's responsibility to investigate - regardless of the source or motivation.

Multiple FISA court judges repeatedly found the FBI investigation to be justified.

Perhaps Trump should have refrained from hiring spys and traitors.

If Hillary paid money that got to Russia for dirt on Trump, that’s collusion, right?

No votes were changed. Putin didn’t affect the election any more than Obama affected Brexit when Obama went to England to campaign against it.

If the cast votes were not changed, Trump and Putin did not rig the election.

That distinction goes to Hillary rigging the DNC primaries and disenfranchising millions of
Bernie Sanders voters.

That is some sick shit.

Since neither Clinton or her campaign communicated with a foreign government, they did not violate the law. Clinton did not publicly ask a foreign government to spy on the Trump or Sander's campaign (unlike Trump).

Whether the Russian government changed the outcome of the election is immaterial. The Trump campaign and Trump himself violated the Logan Act.

It's clear that some Pro-Clinton Democrats treated the Sanders campaign unfairly (which was the stupidest thing they could have possibly have done), but that did not involve a foreign government - so it wasn't illegal.

[ColonelAngus]

It’s interesting that Obama’s direct attempt to impact a British election (unsuccessfully) is ok with liberals, but they claim that Russia attempting to impact an American election is morally reprehensible.

My prediction is that once Mueller publishes the results of his investigation, Trump will make a deal with Pence to pardon him (and his son). Then any further indictments will be moot.

So I don't expect Trump to go to prison.

Perhaps if the Republican sretain control of congress Trump may survive as President, but I doubt it.

[Care4all]

It’s just unreal that a bullshit document was used to spy on the Trump campaign.


The dossier Is cited as "Source #1" in the FISA application, which makes up a sizable portion of the unredacted evidence in the warrant application on Carter Page.

the whole dossier, EVERY word included was a whopping 36 pages,

the FISA Warrant was 400 pages, me thinks you are missing a great deal of evidence, verifying the dossier and all the other intel used to get the Fisa warrant
