You wouldn’t know it from headlines, but even the @nytimes is admitting that IG Horowitz is likely to find that @RepAdamSchiff memo was wrong on Steele’s prior credibility

Because FBI/DOJ “exaggerated” and Schiff just regurgitated their claims, aided by Collusion media

THREAD

Here’s Schiff’s memo on Steele’s prior credibility, saying that DOJ used some of Steele’s prior reporting in “criminal proceedings”.

There was no direct evidence for this other than the FISA warrant saying so & what “officials” said, so Schiff was acting as FBI/DOJ stenographer

NYT (even while still spinning for FBI/DOJ) says Horowitz “likely to conclude” the FISA applications “exaggerated” because Steele’s material “was never part of an affidavit, search warrant or courtroom evidence” 🚨

So that’s yet another thing wrong in Schiff’s memo

In addition to:
—falsely stating the FBI didn’t receive Steele’s reporting until mid-Sep
—that Bruce Ohr’s role was “exaggerated”
—claiming @GeorgePapa19 met multiple “Russian agents”
Etc.

Predictions:

—This will have no impact on the “narrative” that Schiff’s memo was a perfect rebuttal to @DevinNunes memo (which the media says was full of unspecified falsehoods)

—Schiff won’t be asked a question about this by the NYT reporters that created this narrative

/ENDS

@DevinNunes IG report confirms that Steele's reporting was "never used in a criminal proceeding"

Schiff hardest hit.
