A shocking new report reveals that Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence agent who compiled the fake dossier on President Trump made a shocking admission about the document before it was used to obtain a spying warrant on the Trump campaign.
Steele admitted that his client had a political interest against Trump and that he was facing an election day deadline to finish the report.
Despite this admission, the dirty document was still used to obtain a warrant for the FBI or CIA or spy on Trump.
According to The Hill:
If ever there were an admission that taints the FBI’s secret warrant to surveil Donald Trump’s campaign, it sat buried for more than 2 1/2 years in the files of a high-ranking State Department official.
Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec’s written account of her Oct. 11, 2016, meeting with FBI informant Christopher Steele shows the Hillary Clinton campaign-funded British intelligence operative admitted that his research was political and facing an Election Day deadline.
And that confession occurred 10 days before the FBI used Steele’s now-discredited dossier to justify securing a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant to surveil former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page and the campaign’s ties to Russia.
Steele’s client “is keen to see this information come to light prior to November 8,” the date of the 2016 election, Kavalec wrote in a typed summary of her meeting with Steele and Tatyana Duran, a colleague from Steele’s Orbis Security firm. The memos were unearthed a few days ago through open-records litigation by the conservative group Citizens United.
The FBI continues to hide Kavalec’s notes, claiming they are classified. Even though in 2016 the notes were immediately marked with an “unclassified” notation.
