BREAKING: Senator Lindsey Graham Just Confirmed The Steele Dossier Was Used For 2016 FISA Warrant…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | 12/30/17 | Sundance

Posted on 12/29/2017 10:26:26 PM PST by Teflonic

Everyone suspected the sketchy Steele Dossier was what corrupt FBI and DOJ officials used to get the October 2016 FISA warrant against Trump. FBI and DOJ officials refuse to answer that question publicly.

Despite a hundred different ways congressional investigators have asked the question, and despite numerous on-camera questions to FBI and DOJ officials about the 2016 FISA process, no-one had definitively confirmed the Christopher Steele ‘Russian Dossier’ was the underlying evidence for the 2016 FISA application to gain wiretaps and electronic surveillance upon presidential candidate Donald Trump. UNTIL NOW.

Senator Lindsey Graham just confirmed the sketchy Steele Dossier was used to get the wiretap and surveillance warrant from the FISA court. Brian Kilmead understood what he was hearing was serious, but didn’t quite catch the specific gravity of it. Watch at 04:10

…The back-story to the FISA warrant is the cornerstone. The back-story contains both the FBI and the DOJ scheme. Expose it, remove it, and the entire ‘muh Russia conspiracy’ collapses under the weight of sunlight…

This is critical and important because the specific use of the Steele Dossier underpins the BIG UGLY and exposes the entire top-tier apparatus of the FBI Counterintelligence Division (Peter Strzok, Bill Priestap, James Baker, Andrew McCabe) and the DOJ National Security Division (John Carlin, Stuart Evans, Mary McCord and Sally Yates), as well as DOJ Bruce Ohr and FBI lawyer Lisa Page directly to “conspiracy” charges.

The 2016 FBI counterintelligence operation was surveillance on the Trump Campaign and was thinly disguised under the fraudulent auspices of a FISA warrant, sold as a defense of U.S. democracy from Russia, which permitted the wiretaps and surveillance etc.

This is orders of magnitude bigger than Watergate.

For Lindsay to say it, it’s gonna bring down a lot of houses of cards.

Someone will seek immunity only when they feel actual heat on them. So far, only most of the reporting is on FOX, on the net in places like here and from Sundance. No fire coming from elsewhere. Till McTurtle and Ryan wake up or care to, nothing will happen. We are now betting on the IG. I would not because simply put the IG was appointed by the Brown Bomber with the approval of Lynch. Lynch is out and Rip Van Sessions is there now. Unless they find a blunt under Mueller’s desk, I expect nothing.

The McStain ship is not very sea worthy these days, it makes sense for him to be seeking another ship. More may come from him in the near future as he tries to prove his knowledge and worth to others...it might get interesting.

....one detail that seems to be missing and/or under reported........
Who put the FIRST dollar into the creation of the “dossier?”
How does the mea culpa from the Washington Free Bacon fit into this timeline?
Is the root of this toothache a cracked Kristol?

==========================================

Plenty of suspects, to be sure....but IF we, the people, ever find out Hillary dipped
into State Dept tax dollar/slush funds to finance the dossier......there's gonna be hell to pay.

Start at 6:09 or maybe a little before.

Sure looks like Senator Graham made his case that the dossier “cannot be the new normal.”

Graham plainly stated that every prosecutor has a duty to the court.

Everyone involved in this scandal thought there was zero chance of Trump Winning. That is why tgey were so brazen. If Trump lost this never would have gotten out. Never.

I used to think that way, but now we know that there were some like loverboy at the FBI who even "insured" against the thought that Trump could win. That is even more shocking!

Could not agree more.

Notice that plenty of evidence was left out in the open, criminality seemed to be haphazard as if to say “we’ll never get caught.”

Yet, not one of the alphabet butt-protectors....including the MSM, CIA, FBI, DOJ....could save Hillary......she is that bad.

“Q” is an individual (or team) inside the Trump administration who helps to disseminate upcoming events via the “Chans” boards.

I believe, Q is providing the early insight into Trump’s Swamp Draining...esp since Trump signed that extraordinary Dec-21 EO.

On Dec-24, Q posted a photo of Washington Crossing the Delaware to actively begin 1776 revolution.

Within hours, Mattis (via DeptDefense) reposted Q’s photo - perhaps providing credibility of Q’s postings.

Here’s a YouTube video that explains the structure and how Q’s postings have been growing in impact that the MSM is now attacking.

......recent news stories claim “truths” in the dossier. If they make that claim, they might be able to justify using the dossier for their FISA stunt.....the "cover story" is "we believed it."

Let's not underestimate Trump....he will have something to say about that.

So why all this obsession with “Q anon”, whatever that is?

It's primarily the new generation, who has been trained to believe what they are told, rather than how to think for themselves. At least they're not believing the MSM anymore, but have unfortunately swung all the way to the opposite extreme, by becoming champions of easily disprovable conspiracies. For every time one of these Q characters were supposedly right, there's an equal number of times they were completely wrong.

Kilmead is one of those annoying dopes who rather than listen to answers, and then follow-up, breezes on to his his next prepared question. He’s bad.

Did Graham actually say this? I watched the interview and he eluded but wasn’t explicit.

Graham also states that 80% of Americans support a DACA Amnesty.

That is a lie, if it were true Trump would never have been elected with his hard line stance on illegal immigration. If the numbers of support were significant at all DACA would have already been made permanent with all sorts of goodies attached. The reason the Democrats would not touch it when they were running the show, the reason Obama did a temporary fix was because the support was not there- even among Democrats! The kind of support he is claiming has not existed for many years if it ever did.

At one time I believe there were large numbers of people supporting DACA and other "perks/rewards" for illegals. That ship sailed as the nation began to fill with illegals in every nook and cranny. At that point we the people realized we had been lied to about how great illegal immigration is for this country.

Why the sudden interest in ham radio at that age which coincides with the date she is hired by Fusion GPS that is working on the Steele dossier?

Because it is the perfect way to schedule 'document drops'.

If you use a phone, there is a record of both parties to the communication. Same with email.

BUT... if you just broadcast a message on Ham radio, your intended party can listen to the message, but no one can prove who it was or whether they listened.

You simply broadcast something like "the cake is in the oven" and that signals your comrade that he/she needs to go to the pre-arranged spot and pick up the 'documents'.

In the 'old' days, scheduling document drops was done by placing an ad in the local newspaper. However, the intelligence agencies caught onto this practice, and there are very few 'newspapers' where one can do that anymore.
