The Horowitz Report: Yes, It Gets Worse

[The Purge]

On December 9, 2019, the United States Department of Justice released a PDF version of its report by Inspector General Michael Horowitz on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant applications against Carter Page, who had been a foreign policy adviser to then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. The IG Report contains several curiosities that deserve further explanation. Some background information is necessary to understand these curiosities.

You will see that

1) the FBI and DOJ appear to have deliberately and knowingly failed to monitor a British court case in which they knew that former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele, a defendant in the case, would be making statements regarding his so-called “dossier” that could affect the accuracy of the warrant applications,

2) the FBI and DOJ failed to tell the FISA Court in their June 2017 warrant application that Steele had admitted in the British court case that part of his “dossier” was unverified,

3) in a letter purporting to tell the FISA Court about material omissions from the warrant applications, the DOJ failed to tell the FISA Court about the omission from the June 2017 warrant application of Steele’s admission that part of his “dossier” was unverified,

4) the IG failed to tell the public about Steele’s admission that part of his “dossier” was unverified, and

5) the IG failed to tell the public about the DOJ’s failure in its letter to the FISA Court, to report the omission of Steele’s admission about part of his “dossier” being unverified....(leter to be admitted to by Steele that virtually NOTHING was verified!)

The IG can look at those "errors" as unbiased and innocent, but I'm sure that Barr, Durham, and a jury won't.

I believe the Steele dossier. It had little to do with FiSA warrant on Page.

Only an idiot would believe the Steele dossier. Just proves how far gone the left really has.

So you think a rogue agency like the FBI which has committed unconstitutional acts since J Edgar, is entirely okay.

McCabe said under oath that without the Steele Dossier there would have been no FISA application on Carter Page.

Thanks for playing. Please stop lying all the time, and put up links to prove your assertions.

Also, the Steele Dossier has been proven to be totally bogus.

Carter was not with the campaign by the time he was considered for surveillance.

How the hell can that be politically motivated against Trump campaign?

“Obama wiretapped Trump tower...by getting a warrant to wiretap ex-campaign member we have nothing to do with”

Steele himself said it was bullshit.

The FISA warrant was obtained PURELY on the Steele Dossier, which everyone KNEW WAS BULLSHIT.

Here, from that Right wing rag, ROLLING STONE:

'Corroboration Zero': An Inspector General's Report Reveals the Steele Dossier Was Always a Joke

The “Steele Dossier” was “internet rumor,” and corroboration for the pee tape story was “zero.”



The Steele report reads like a pile of rumors surrounded by public information pulled off the Internet, and the Horowitz report does nothing to dispel this notion.

At the time the FBI submitted its first FISA application, Horowitz writes, it had “corroborated limited information in Steele’s election reporting, and most of that was publicly available information.” Horowitz says of Steele’s reports: “The CIA viewed it as ‘internet rumor.’”

Worse (and this part of the story should be tattooed on the heads of Russia truthers), the FBI’s interviews of Steele’s sources revealed Steele embellished the most explosive parts of his report.

The “pee tape” story, which inspired countless grave headlines (see this chin-scratching New York Times history of Russian “sexual blackmail”) and plunged the Trump presidency into crisis before it began, was, this source said, based a “conversation that [he/she] had over beers,” with the sexual allegations made… in “jest”!

Steele in his report said the story had been “confirmed” by senior, Western hotel staff, but the actual source said it was all “rumor and speculation,” never confirmed. In fact, charged by Steele to find corroboration, the source could not: corroboration was “zero,” writes Horowitz.

Meanwhile the Steele assertions that Russians had a kompromat file on Hillary Clinton, and that there was a “well-developed conspiracy of coordination” between the Trump campaign and Russians, relied on a source Steele himself disparaged as an “egoist” and “boaster” who “may engage in some embellishment.” This was known to the FBI at the start, yet they naturally failed to include this info in the warrant application, one of what Horowitz described as “17 significant errors or omissions” in the FISA application.

Any lefties who support this impeachment, ask yourself if you would support it if a Republican House did the same thing to Obama.

If the answer is YES....WHY DIDNT YOU DEMAND OBAMA BE IMPEACHED FOR HIS HOT MIC MOMENT WITH MEDVEDEV?
