They Called It

“The Steele Dossier”

2. The Dossier seems to have assumed a permanent place in American presidential politics.
Just this week the Dossier was cited by numerous pundits in the mainstream media as proof of Trump-Russia collusion.
washingtonexaminer.com/news/buzzfeed-…
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_i…

3. In the remote event you missed it, the Dossier is a compilation of salacious allegations agnst @POTUS @realDonaldTrump made by "unnamed Russian sources" & compiled by Christopher Steele, a former British spy & 1-time FBI informant. buzzfeednews.com/article/kenben…

4. For unknown reasons, Steele was reportedly desperate to prevent @realDonaldTrump ’s election.

He was not alone in his angst.
home.bt.com/news/uk-news/e…

5. Imperative: "Russian involvement" is critical to 'the Crooked H Resistance' claim that the 2016 election was illegitimate.

Too bad for the claim, NONE of the Steele allegations have EVER been verified despite 2yrs of 'heroic' media effort. redstate.com/patterico/2018…

6. Yahoo News pundit Michael Isikoff, one of the first to break the story in 2016, admitted Steele’s allegations are “likely false.”

7. Fired for A LACK OF CANDOR (ie: Cannot Be Trusted aka: a LIAR/a LEAKER/a Bad Cop) Former FBI Dir James Comey testified the FBI was UNABLE to verify ANY of the allegations.

8. Steele testified ✋🏼UNDER OATH to authorities that he in fact was paid by Hillary Clinton to create a perverted and salacious fake Russia Hoax "Dossier
investmentwatchblog.com/astounding-ste…
Yet the media still uses Dossier 2make its case 4"COLLUSION!"

BTW: Collusion-👉🏼NOT a Crime👈🏼

9. This is NOT to say that the Russians did NOT try to interfere in the US elections, only that the Steele Dossier provides NO PROOF of @realDonaldTrump -Russia collusion.

Rather Collusion/Money Laundering/Propaganda Campaign By The Clintons/DNC/RINOS & Intel Leadership

10. Neither do the reported findings to date of the $$25,700,000 million dollar TAXPAYER FUNDED Bob 'The Witch-Hunter' Mueller's probe. politifact.com/truth-o-meter/…

11. The DoJ indictment of Russian agents for ATTEMPTED interference explicitly RULES OUT witting involvement of ANY Americans.

The indictments also DISAVOW that ANY votes were corrupted by Russian efforts. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5…

12. Steele was hired to develop the dossier by opposition-research firm Fusion GPS, a client of the Perkins-Coie law firm. documentcloud.org/documents/4116…

13. Perkins-Coie was in the employ of the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign organization. abajournal.com/news/article/p…

14. The GPS-Fusion dossier project was managed by company founder Glenn Simpson and employee Nellie Ohr, wife of senior Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr. cnsnews.com/news/article/s…

15. The dossier was paid 4by DNC/Clinton via a money-laundering pathway. Neither the DNC nor Crooked Hillary Clinton were 'disinterested observers.'

Clinton camp &DNC,through law firm, cont to fund FusionGPS through end of Oct 2016, days b4 Election Day.
snopes.com/news/2017/10/2…

16. Former Clinton campaign spokesman Brian Fallon denied knowing of the dossier before the election, but defended it as an example of legitimate opposition research:

“The first I learned of Christopher Steele or saw any dossier was after the election.” washingtonpost.com/world/national…

17. Where the story really gets interesting is what senior law enforcement & intelligence managers did with the Dossier.

18. They did 2 things that should disturb any responsible citizen:
thefederalist.com/2017/06/09/jam…
First, they participated in the LEAKING of the UNVERIFIED dossier’s allegations to the media. Leaking information pursuant to an FBI investigation is illegal. fbi.gov/file-repositor…

19. Second, they used the Dossier as EVIDENCE of "probable cause" in support of multiple applications for a FISA warrant to spy on US citizen Carter Page, a 1-time advisor to the @realDonaldTrump campaign. outsidethebeltway.com/f-b-i-obtained… washingtonpost.com/world/national…

20. The FISA warrant applications FAILED to spell out
either the funding source (By The DNC; Crooked H; Obama's Organizing for America And The FBI itself)
~or the lack of ANY VERIFIABLE CORROBORATING EVIDENCE.

👇🏼Here's Some Perspective

21. Democratic National Committee: The DNC works to get prominent Democrats elected/re-elected to office. In 2016 it provided funding to Fusion GPS, through Marc Elias, for opposition research that included the @realDonaldTrump dossier.

22. Obama for America (OFA): Barack Obama’s campaign organization gave $972,000 to Fusion GPS starting in April of 2016 through the law firm of Perkins Coie according to Federal Election Commission records.

23. John McCain: Dirty Senator from Arizona & an outspoken @realDonaldTrump critic, received 2 copies of the Trump dossier.
An early copy was provided directly by Christopher Steele
and a final copy by Fusion GPS Founder Glenn Simpson.

24. BuzzFeed: Internet media company responsible for the 1st publication of the @realDonaldTrump dossier on January 10, 2017. Buzzfeed has invoked “reporters privilege” to avoid disclosing who gave them a copy of the dossier.

25. Natalia Veselnitskaya: Russian lawyer & fmr Russian intel officer who requested a mtg w/ @DonaldJTrumpJr & contracted Fusion GPS during her lobbying effort to have Russian sanctions lifted against Vladimir Putin.

26. Fusion GPS says it had no role in organizing the mtg btwn her & @DonaldJTrumpJr but her past efforts 2aid Putin do create a strong case 4a link btwn Fusion GPS & the Kremlin. Fusion GPS would not have helped her for free so the key is the 💰trail.

27. Marc Elias: Chairman, partner and head of the political law practice at the law firm of Perkins Coie. Elias handled millions of dollars of funds from Hillary Clinton and the DNC that made it to Fusion GPS.

28. Michael Sussman: Partner at Perkins Coie who brought Crowdstrike in to handle a breach of DNC servers ahead of the 2016 election.

29. The Washington Free Beacon: Conservative publication started by Michael Goldfarb, Aaron Harrison, and Matthew Continetti as a non-profit project of the Center for American Freedom. ...

30. ...In 2014 it turned to a for-profit business. In late 2015- 2016, the Beacon funded oppo research, through Fusion GPS, on then-candidate @realDonaldTrump . ..

31. ...Paul Singer is thought to be a major financial backer of the publication although the Beacon has never made its ownership or financial backers public.

32. Christopher Steele: Former British intelligence agent (MI6) and founder of Orbis Business Intelligence, a private intelligence firm. Steele is the author of the infamous and discredited @realDonaldTrump dossier.

33. Bruce Ohr: Associate deputy attorney general who worked in close proximity to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and was demoted after it was found that he had undisclosed contacts with Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS before and after the election.

34. Paul Singer: Hedge fund manager, activist investor, financial backer of the Washington Free Beacon, and prominent establishment Republican financier, Singer backed at least 2 candidates opposing @realDonaldTrump in the 2016 election, and is oppo resrch on @POTUS Trump. ..

35. ..Singer, and others affiliated with his hedge fund, Elliot Management were the top contributors to Mitch McConnell’s National Republican Senatorial Committee.

36. Mark Warner: Top Democrat on the Senate Intel Committee which is running an investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Warner exchanged text msgs wAdam Waldman beg in Febr of 2017 to negotiate the appearance of Christopher Steele for a hearing, ..

37. ...but Steele REFUSED to testify unless he received a bi-partisan letter requesting the interview.

Warner had NO intention of sharing his sources or methods with Republicans making the letter impossible.

38. Oleg Deripaska: Russian aluminum magnate and close friend of Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin.

Used Adam Waldman to contact U.S. government officials on his behalf.

39. Adam Waldman: American lobbyist that worked often in the interest of Russian officials. He exchngd txt msgs wSen. Mark Warren(D-Va) offering to help get Steele to testify before the committee. ...

40. ...Ultimately negotiations failed bc Steele demanded a bi-partisan request letter and Warner had no interest in bring Republicans into the mix. Waldman served as counsel 4Russian Frign Min Sergey Lavrov, lobbied 4Russian Oligarch Oleg Deripaska & had connections to Steele.

41. Daniel Jones: The Waldman-Warner text messages mention Daniel Jones as having contact with both Warner and Steele.

Jones had been working wFusion GPS to verify information in the @realDonaldTrump Dossier since it was published.

42. Peripheral Actors:
Crowdstrike: An American Cybersecurity firm that was brought in by Clinton law firm Perkins Coie. Partner Michael Sussman contacted Crowdstrike’s CEO to deal with the intrusion of DNC systems ahead of the 2016 presidential elections. ..

43....The FBI was
NEVER "allowed to investigate the breach"
and
"[The Comey Led FBI] relied on information provided to them by Crowdstrike" in order to blame the hack on Russian-linked groups.

44. Jeb Bush: Son of former President George H.W. Bush and brother of George W. Bush, Jeb received money from GOP establishment, pro-amnesty, ANTI-@realDonaldTrump financier Paul Singer during the 2016 presidential election primary.

45. Marco Rubio: U.S. Senator, failed 2016 presidential candidate and recipient of $5,000,000 million in election backing during his 2016 run from RINO ANTI-@realDonaldTrump establishment Republican financier Paul Singer.

46. The root questions of course are whether or not Russia ACTUALLY CHANGED our 2016 election results and whether or not candidate @realDonaldTrump -or any other American- helped them do it.

There is, as indicated above, NO EVIDENCE A SIGLE VOTE WAS CHANGED.

47. But there IS evidence of collusion.
First the Trump side: Mbrs of the Trump camp met wRussian atty Natalia Veselnitskaya in the Trump Tower, ostensibly to obtain dirt on Crooked Hillary Clinton. No dirt was provided. newsweek.com/donald-trump-j…

48. Veselnitskaya instead lobbied for repeal of the U.S. MagnitskyAct, offering as she had in the past for the Russian govt to ease punitive restrictions on the adoption of Russian orphans. breitbart.com/politics/2018/…

49. But there is no question Trump campaign officials, perhaps Trump himself, were at least willing to deal in Russian dirt.
thisisinsider.com/who-else-was-i…
BUT THAT'S NOT A CRIME ..but it's nothing to brag about either.

50. Now the Democratic side:
As we have seen, the DNC & the Clinton campaign organization went to extraordinary lengths TO HIDE their efforts TO PLANT DISINFORMATION unfavorable to the @realDonaldTrump campaign.

51. Certainly, Clinton could argue she herself hadn’t sat w/any Russians since resigning from the State Department and having the Uranium One Deal signed, sealed & delivered (by Robert Mueller HIMSELF) thenewamerican.com/usnews/foreign…

52. But the money trail from her campaign through Perkins-Coie & Fusion GPS to the hypothetical Russians tells the tale.
newswithviews.com/triple-evils-o…
Worse, DNC & Clinton clearly colluded w/Sr USgov officls 2influence the election &, later, to effect a coup against the Trump admin.

53. This is a whole lot worse than merely
"being willing to receive opposition-research dirt."

54. There is one more entry in the Democratic account:

Russian attorney Veselnitskaya is reported to have attended mtgs with Fusion GPS, immediately BEFORE and immediately AFTER her mtg in Trump Tower.

What was the purpose of these sit downs? townhall.com/tipsheet/guybe…

55. So Fusion GPS, wrote the memo that was taken into the @realDonaldTrump Tower mtg which is the same memo presented to Russia's prosecutor general reuters.com/article/us-usa…

56. If I'm following this correctly, the Democrat firm that orchestrated the Steele dossier (paid for by Dems Crooked and, for a time, the FBI) abt @realDonaldTrump -Russia collusion ...

57. ...also dug up damaging info agnst Clinton Fndtn donors "in the course of conducting a 'totally unrelated' project."

And THAT info 'just happened' to end up in the hands of a Russian envoy who finagled a mtg to hand it over to the @realDonaldTrump campaign....

58...-a transaction that has since been cited as KEY EVIDENCE of Trump-Russia collusion.
To quote a certain someone, buying that account as "TOTALLY COINCIDENTAL" seems to require the willing suspension of disbelief.

What does Fusion GPS have to say for itself?

59, An 18 Oct appearance by 2Fusion GPS execs before the House Intel Committee
🙊both invoked their Fifth Amendment rights and declined to testify🙊
cnn.com/2017/10/18/pol…

60. Comey/Meuller/Yates/Rosenstein/Susan Rice/Obama/Clapper/Baker/Preistep, Simpson of FusionGPS,/Bruce & Nellie Ohr/McCabe/Strzok/Page/DNC/Media

THEY ALL conspired w/Crooked H's camp to SPY; Entrap; Prosecute ANYONE near @realDonaldTrump To DE-LEGITIMIZE His Presidency

61. Just Rmbr:
When u say Mueller Investigation, its actually
'Comey's Investigation/Revenge to Impeach'
(called by Strzok & Page)
2key mbrs of a team Comey led thrgh Bill Priestap’s counterintel dept which is protected by a “Natnl Sec” blanket &allows top secret “operations.”

62. I can only hope@POTUS @realDonaldTrump is letting Mueller play out his hand bc he already knows at any time he can/will pull the curtain back to expose ea & everyone of the aforementioned individuals & their crimes.

a FAKE Dossier Started ALL of This
Think About That
~End

63. In the end the Dossier is evidence of DISINFORMATION efforts, not @realDonaldTrump -Russia collusion.

Nxt time the FAKE media touts the Dossier as PROOF of anything
knw it’s Viva 'le Resistance' taking sippin Jim Jones Kool-Aid.☠️
