DOJ official who concealed meetings with Trump dossier figures loses another job title [Bruce Ohr]

A Justice Department official demoted late last year for concealing his meetings with the men behind the anti-Trump “dossier” has been stripped of yet another title, Fox News has learned.

Bruce Ohr is no longer head of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces.

Separately, sources familiar with the discussions tell Fox News that the Justice Department is expected to comply with demands from the House Intelligence Committee to provide Ohr for an interview. He is scheduled to visit the committee on Jan. 17, sources said.

Fox News first reported in December that Ohr had been demoted from the position of associate deputy attorney general, after it was revealed he had conducted undisclosed meetings with dossier author Christopher Steele and Glenn Simpson of Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that produced the salacious document.

Fox News also reported that his wife Nellie Ohr worked for Fusion GPS, specifically on research related to the dossier.

Did his demotions include commensurate reductions in pay?

Mr Ohr needs to be put on suicide watch, in my opinion.

He’s not fit to be in charge of the Counterfeit Service Dog Vest Division.

The corruption is deep and pervasive. Some elements seem to go back to the Clinton administration.

GWB’s failure to clean it out may go down as his biggest failure.

“Somebody”, whether Ohr or another one of the FBI/DOJ former hotshots, isn’t going to be able to handle the demotions, job loss, infamy, etc. I won’t be surprised if/when it happens.

How about the title: “Inmate”... Ohr can have the cell next to Robert Hanssen.
