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 suddenly coming out of left field, and from Graham of all people, is too bizarre not to trend...

Unexpected

Massive

Devastating

I have seen this playbook before.

Don’t forget that other tidbit Sundance referred to.

That they have been surveilling American Citizens for 6 years! Given that they hacked Senate committee computers I am sure they have a Lindsey Graham file...

That would include Eric Holder’s involvement.

It smells of Graham trying to save himself, throwing the most culpable out to the sharks before they can catch up with him.

That's what I think, too. LG might have a much more serious exposure than the fake dossier, along with CES, NP and others in government, finance and media. While Mueller has distracted attention chasing evidence of crimes that were never committed, Sessions has been rolling up a vast cabal that shares a very evil hobby. These are sleepless nights for many in DC.

I think that theses senators and bureaucrats figured that trump had to be corrupt in his dealings like they are so manufacture an excuse and eventually they will find some sort of substantial contact through his business dealings.

Someone had to swear out an oath to obtain that warrant. That person needs to go to jail for purjury.

They never found out who hired Craig Livingstone, and the person who signed the warrant will never be found either.

McStain is in the middle of this. Lindsey is McStain’s BFF. Are the rats starting to jump off the ship?

Yes they are. What this really means is the Trump has them by their balls.

Re: My interpretation

Graham is simply repeating the same vague allegations that have been floating around Washington for months.

If the Dossier actually was used to obtain the FISA warrant, why can’t he just say those words out loud, then demand that a special prosecutor investigate?

What is he waiting for?

What are the rest of the Republicans on the House and Senate Intelligence Committees waiting for?

Is this the first good thing he’s done for the country?

This is becoming a trend lately. Enemies of Trump or the American People are reading some tea leaves and desperately trying to appear among the good guys. Lindsay and Dershowitz, etc.

"“I tend to agree....I would suspect five or six Senators (GOP and Democrat) are probably tied up into this (It’s not just McCain), and if their involvement comes out....you’d have to question their ability to sit in the Senate.” Remember when senator Chuck Schumer said “the FBI has the tools to mess up your life in a hundred different ways. You don’t want to mess with him.”

Remember their were 5 or 6 Senators that urged the IRS to look into the Tea Party and McCain was one of them. I'd start with this crew, Schumer was one, and I think Harry Reid.

The wheels of justice are slow, but they grind exceeding fine.

That’s a decent rewrite of the quote from Lord Kelvin:

The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine.

That’s how I’m tolerating AG Sessions, when so many FReepers are blasting him. I believe he’s doing a lot behind the public view.

Good summary but the key word omitted (but used by Sundance) is “conspiracy” - and the leftist leadership both at the DOJ and FBI are conspirators, plotting the unfair and illegal use of the governmental apparatus and power against their political opponents.

I want to see leftist lawyers disbarred and imprisoned and dirty FBI cops fired without pensions and also imprisoned.

I want this to go right up to DingleBarry’s ass, to see him disgraced, if not imprisoned.

No more Lois Lerner freebies. It’s time to crush these SOBs.

Clapper and Brennan need to go to prison.

They all do. This conspiracy goes deep and it involves sedition and treason. Both of which are capital crimes if I'm not mistaken.

The name John McCain’s going to start popping up in this conspiracy.

Graham didn’t use the exact words. The title is misleading.
