Bruce Ohr named 'half a dozen' FBI, DOJ officials who knew about Trump dossier ties, GOP
Washington Examiner ^ | 8/29/18 | Daniel Chaitin

Justice Department official Bruce Ohr gave lawmakers "a list of half a dozen" senior FBI and DOJ officials who knew about his interactions with people tied to the Trump dossier, according to a GOP congressman.

**SNIP**

Ratcliffe said these FBI and DOJ officials were told of Ohr and his wife Nellie Ohr's involvement with ex-British spy Christopher Steele, the author of the Trump dossier, and Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm that commissioned the dossier.

He said at least one of these officials signed off on a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant application seeking the authority to spy on onetime Trump campaign adviser Carter Page, advising to this individual: "I would retain a really good lawyer."

everyone’s in such a rush to drain the swamp. testimony like this is why it takes time. relax. President Trump and his very large team are in charge, and the truth is on their side.

The Ham radio installation at the Ohrr residence to avoid data collection is mighty damning. Who were the other parties using this means of communication to avoid accountability?

I suggest that a hearing should be called by Judge ‎Rosemary M. Collyer, the Presiding Judge of the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. She should call all those involved in the fraud of the Dossier to testify about their part in the fraud and to name others involved. Then, all those found to have significant parts in the fraud should be indicted on federal crimes. I invite all of my FRiends to contact their U.S. representatives and request they call upon Judge Collyer to do her duty.

I think everybody that signed the original and renewal requests knew it was bogus. That said, my guess is McCabe is the person Ratcliff is referring to. He would have been involved with all 4 requests and actually had to sign the last one as acting head of the FBI.

Did he really use a ham radio? I read something alluding to them using unofficial channels that would not be hacked or traced back to them but didn’t see ham radio mentioned before. So cloak and dagger... or are you pulling our legs?

Why, there seems to be no investigation into anything but Trump and, while giving lip service to it, no one in congress seems to be trying to force an investigation.

Looks like this black robed thug has been in the swamp most of her career. I will not hold my breath waiting for her to do anything.

No. Nellie had a ham radio system installed and she got her FCC operators license to use it. They were using it to communicate with operatives and no paper or digital trail. No invoices or call records either.

Yoga, Pilates, and high power amateur ham radio operations. Just the top three for post menopausal women hobbies into their late 50’s.

Nellie Ohr obtained a ham radio license around the time the Steel report came out.
