Clinton Associates Fed Information To Dossier Author Steele, Grassley-Graham Memo Says
Breitbart ^ | 2-5-2018 | Kristina Wong

Posted on 02/05/2018 6:59:32 PM PST by blam

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and Crime and Terrorism Subcommittee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Monday released a memo referring Trump dossier author Christopher Steele for a criminal investigation that revealed that a friend of Hillary and Bill Clinton fed information for the Steele dossier. According to Grassley and Graham’s memo, which is heavily redacted at the request of the FBI, a foreign source gave information to friends of Bill and Hillary Clinton, who then gave it to an Obama State Department official, who then gave it to Steele.

Grassley and Graham’s memo stated:

One memorandum by Mr. Steele that was not published by Buzzfeed is dated October 19, 2016. The report alleges [redacted], as well as [redacted]. Mr. Steele’s memorandum states that his company ‘received his report from [redacted] US State Department,’ that the report was the second in a series, and that the report was information that came from a foreign sub-source who ‘is in touch with [redacted], a contact of [redacted], a friend of the Clintons, who passed it to [redacted].

“It is troubling enough that the Clinton Campaign funded Mr. Steele’s work, but these Clinton associates were contemporaneously feeding Mr. Steele allegations raises additional concerns about his credibility,” Grassley and Graham wrote.

The Washington Examiner‘s Byron York noted in his report that Clinton associate Cody Shearer was in contact with Steele about anti-Trump research, and that Obama State Department official Jonathan Winer was a connection between Steele and the State Department during the 2016 campaign.

I want to know who came up with that audacious “golden (jumping on 0bama’s bed) showers” thing. That was an amazing lie and he used it without any verification, because, as we all know, Donald is known for doing this over the years.

What good would it do AFTER the Obamas were there?

The truth is probably that Trump demanded a new mattress because of the stains left on the one Obama used.

In case anyone is interested. Carter Page is on the Ingram Angle refuting the Steele assertions.

That’s what is most puzzling about this.
Graham is as Deep State as McCain, why is he helping Grassley?

It was a fake story from the start.

The Clinton campaign’s dirty tricks people, Cody Shearer (whose father was a founder of the 1960’s communist group, Students for a Democratic Society) and Sid (Vicious) Blumenthal made up a negative smear, tailored to serve the campaign’s needs (alienate women from Trump, suppress Trump base voters, etc.).

Steele was just paid to be what spies call a “cutout” - just a false front, to make it look like the story was coming from a credible source, and hide that it actually came from Clinton’s campaign. This is a typical sort of intelligence disinformation operation.

Top level officials in the FBI and DOJ knowingly abused their offices and participated in this fraud, to criminally destroy a political opponent. If the FISA judge who issued the warrant to spy based on this fraud, does not take action to punish those officials, then that judge was likely also a knowing participant.

NONE...especially IF the Trumps were staying in that suite!

That whole story sounds like something a crazed LEFTY ( Hillary et al ) would do to some place that Trump/the Trumps had once stayed in.

People who are confused about their own gender, tend to be confused about a lot of things.

Save your breath. Sessions isn't going to move a muscle.

He won't sh!t OR get off the pot, because the deep state has something on him.
