From Sundance: Chris Steele would be the laundry for the intelligence information pulled from the U.S. system. Unauthorized FISA-702(16)(17) results were passed on to Christopher Steele, likely by Nellie Ohr. Mr. Steele would then wash the intelligence product, repackage it into what became known as his “Dossier”, and pass it back to the FBI ‘small group’ as evidence for use in their counterintelligence operation which began in July 2016 [ intentionally without congressional oversight {Go Deep}] and the subsequent ‘insurance policy‘.

Evidence of this laundry process is found in a significant “search query” result that was actually a mistake. The faulty intelligence mistake was the travel history of Michael Cohen, a long-time Trump lawyer. The FISA search turned up a Michael Cohen traveling to Prague. It was the wrong Michael Cohen. However, that mistaken result was passed on to Chris Steele and it made its way into the dossier. Absent of a FISA search, there’s no other way Christopher Steele could identify a mistaken “Michael Cohen” traveling to Prague from the Russian sources he claimed to have used for that specific point.

The Cohen mistake created a trail from Chris Steele to the FISA database. All of the unauthorized FISA-702 search queries, “To From”(16) and/or “About”(17), of the NSA/FBI database were returning results. Those results were “raw intelligence”

And now you know why Michael Cohen is suing Fusion-GPS and Buzzfeed. His lawsuit will force Fusion to outline where they got the fraudulent information. Within the discovery Cohen knows he’ll find the unlawful FISA-702 search story.

Jan 9, 2018--Trump lawyer Michael Cohen sues BuzzFeed for publishing Steele dossier

"Let me be totally clear that the allegations raised against me in the public square and raised largely by BuzzFeed, Fusion GPS and others in the press are based upon misinformation, unnamed or unverifiable sources," Cohen said. "Their actions are so malicious, despicable and reckless, one can only presume that their motives were intentional."

In the action, Cohen highlights several allegations in the dossier that he says are provably false. For example, the dossier claimed that Cohen's wife is Russian and that her father is a leading property developer in Russia, allowing Cohen to carry on a possibly criminal relationship with the Russian government.

The suit says Cohen's wife was born in Ukraine, immigrated to the United States more than 40 years ago and "has never been to Russia." Her father, it says, has been to Russia only once.

Cohen has denied that a Prague meeting occurred, saying that he has never been to the Czech Republic. In May 2017, Cohen provided a copy of his passport to BuzzFeed that showed it had been stamped for entry and exit to the United Kingdom and Italy.

A US passport is stamped upon entry into the Schengen zone and upon exit from the Schengen zone.

You entered the Schengen zone in France and exited in Amsterdam (or vice-versa), so you only got two stamps.

However, Michael Cohen can easily show that his passport doesn’t show entry and exit from the Schengen zone in the time in question - a trivial exercise.

Sessions is a disgrace allowing this to go on & on.

Yep. Beauregard neutered recused himself shortly after taking office.

Should have resigned or unrecused himself and fired Rosenstein and Mueller!

If the supposed “evidence” that Cohen travelled to Prague made it into the evidence behind the stasi search warrent, that would be friken huge. Maybe that was leaked, just not published.

Pure conjecture on my part. It does explain why Mclatchy would publish it now, though.

Mueller wants to take out Donald J. Trump but Trump may get the final call on this and I hope he does.

Cohen is a lawyer.

'Wish he'd stated he'd never been to the Czech Republic. (Or never been to any other town in the Czech Republic).

Right. They investigated. But no one has picked up the ball from the IG’s report on the leaker McCabe to prosecute him? Maybe they have and we just don’t know it yet, but you think that would’ve leaked by now. LOL.

That is certainly a highly plausible story which if/when verified ought to lead to dozens being indicted on multiple felony charges, all the way down to Obama himself.

one each

Please don't make statements like what you to are suggesting on FR. That's the type of comments that will get complaints going from Libs to LE agencies.

As for Mueller’s conduct in getting a local prosecutor to seize Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen’s records, that seems to be devolving into farce. The President has been allowed to intervene to protect his interests as Cohen’s client and Cohen has argued he cannot be compelled to testify in the former porn star’s case respecting breach of her nondisclosure agreement because of his Fifth Amendment privilege. Will the next step be Stormy Daniel’s lawyer seeking to intervene and quash the search and seizure warrant on Cohen as having been improperly entered?

And the prosecutorial leaks continue -- McClatchy suggesting there was a basis to go after Cohen because of a purported meeting he had in Prague, something long discredited.

Cohen’s response:

Michael Cohen ‏Verified account @MichaelCohen212 8m8 minutes ago

Bad reporting, bad information and bad story by same reporter Peter Stone @McClatchyDC. No matter how many times or ways they write it, I have never been to Prague. I was in LA with my son. Proven!

But the press falls for this nonsense every time.

The next person who suggests the appointment of a special counsel under the now existing law where there is no court oversight ought to be committed. Twice now they’ve devolved into unconstitutional, partisan witch-hunts.

My suspicion is that the raid on Cohen's office is more related to his suit against GPS Fusion than it is against anything else. A correspondent shares my belief:

This is an old story that's been completely debunked. The claim that Cohen traveled to Prague was part of the Steele "dossier" that was put out by Fusion GPS = The Hillary Campaign. It turns out that there is more than one Michael Cohen in the world -- yes, imagine that! A different Michael Cohen went to Prague. And that's where things get interesting.

Have you ever tried to access the travel records of another person? Yeah, good luck with that, right? Well, then, how did Fusion GPS manage to do that? It turns out, via a FISA Court report, that the FBI employed "private contractors" who weren't cleared and gave them extensive access to government records. Yep. Fusion GPS was a "private contractor," meaning the FBI had given them access to just about everything in order to do oppo research for Hillary. Are you comfortable with that? Fusion GPS's big mistake in keeping this from coming out is that they didn't check to make sure they had the right Michael Cohen and went with the attempted smear.

So, what does Michael Cohen do? In very early January of this year he filed a defamation law suit against Fusion GPS! Uh oh! Imagine the stuff he's gonna be asking for in discovery! What happens next? Mueller's jackbooted FBI break down the doors to every place associated with Cohen, seize all his records, and start leaking accusations against him.

Does this sound like the whole Mueller operation is really just a coverup for Hillary and the Deep State? It does to me.

I see how this works.

The dossier says Cohen was in Prague.

The evil reporters say Mueller has evidence that Cohen was in Prague.

Mueller has the dossier.

Bingo, Mueller has evidence.

LOL.
