damaging information on then candidate trump. that s what we get into sidney blumenthal and other clinton associates. let me see if i m understanding this correctly. is it possible, sir, that clinton associates where feeding information to christopher steele? i refer back to one redacted part in the memo that there is substantial evidence that mr. steele materially misled t the fbi about key aspects of his dossier s efforts.s. is it possible that clinton associates gave information to christopher steele that was then used for a salacious dossier on hilary s opponent that was then used to lie to the american people, or mislead the american people, because steele leaked all over to the mainstream media, and was used as the basii for fisa? is that possible? some of the information came from clinton s own people? to steele? you re not going to like this
it s an embarrassment to the united states congress. it s part of the effort to discredit the president of the united states. the house intel memo has been released. this is the biggest abuse of power case in american history. howie: there are also questions about the spy who wrote the memo. there is all-out media warfare in the media investigation. it s hard to imagine a previous president overruling an fbi director. the fbi director is saying this memo is full of falsehoods.
hard to keep track of them but we are going to do our best. we know the fbi authorized payment for the man at the center of this entire opus, christopher steele, for information in that dossier. and to be clear, steele was like hardly an objective source when it came to national security matters. he is quoted in the house intel memo as telling doj officials that he was, quote, desperate that donald trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being president. no agenda there whatsoever. so he cooks up this fake dossier so try to kill trump s candidacy. and at the same time, steele began shooting his mouth off to yahoo news about carter page s trip to moscow, which included his infamous dossier. the fbi later cites that yahoo news story as corroborating evidence of the dossier s credibility. that s a neat trick.

after reading this memo today, i don t know how the fbi even met that benchmark. now, apparently, those requirements, those statutory requirements went out the window because they had to take out trump by any means necessary. the fbi used a minor figure on the trump advisory board. the aforementioned mr. page in an attempt to penetrate s trump inner circle. now, page has been on the fbi s radar for his activities in russia long before his name was listed in that campaign in the spring of 2016. but then on october 21st, 2016, the fbi filed an application with the fisa court for a warrant to surveil page. according to the house intel memo, they submitted that phony russian dossier created by british spy christopher steele as their primary evidence. now, the document itself was filled with conjecture and
