Newly declassified footnotes from Department of Justice Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s December FBI report reveals that senior Obama officials, including members of the FBI’s Crossfire Hurricane team knew the dossier compiled by a former British spy during the 2016 election was Russian disinformation to target President Donald Trump.

Further, the partially declassified footnotes reveal that those senior intelligence officials were aware of the disinformation when they included the dossier in the Obama administration’s Intelligence Communities Assessment (ICA).

As important, the footnotes reveal that there had been a request to validate information collected by British spy Christopher Steele as far back as 2015, and that there was concern among members of the FBI and intelligence community about his reliability. Those concerns were brushed aside by members of the Crossfire Hurricane team in their pursuit against the Trump campaign officials, according to sources who spoke to this reporter and the footnotes.

The explosive footnotes were partially declassified and made public Wednesday, after a lengthy review by the Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell’s office. Grenell sent the letter Wednesday releasing the documents to Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa and Sen. Ron Johnson, R- Wisconsin, both who requested the declassification.

“Having reviewed the matter, and having consulted the heads of the relevant Intelligence Community elements, I have declassified the enclosed footnotes.” Grenell consulted with DOJ Attorney General William Barr on the declassification of the documents.

Grassley and Johnson released a statement late Wednesday stating “as we can see from these now-declassified footnotes in the IG’s report, Russian intelligence was aware of the dossier before the FBI even began its investigation and the FBI had reports in hand that their central piece of evidence was most likely tainted with Russian disinformation.”

“Thanks to Attorney General Barr’s and Acting Director Grenell’s declassification of the footnotes, we know the FBI’s justification to target an American Citizen was riddled with significant flaws,” the Senator stated. “Inspector General Michael Horowitz and his team did what neither the FBI nor Special Counsel Mueller cared to do: examine and investigate corruption at the FBI, the sources of the Steele dossier, how it was disseminated, and reporting that it contained Russian disinformation.”

The Footnotes 

A U.S. Official familiar with the investigation into the FBI told this reporter that the footnotes “clearly show that the FBI team was or should have had been aware that the Russian Intelligence Services was trying to influence Steele’s reporting in the summer of 2016, and that there were some preferences for Hillary; and that this RIS [Russian Intelligence Services] sourced information being fed to Steele was designed to hurt Trump.”

The official noted these new revelations also “undermines the ICA on Russian Interference and the intent to help Trump. It undermines the FISA warrants and there should not have been a Mueller investigation.”

Russian’s Appeared To Have Preferred Clinton

The footnotes also reveal a startling fact that go against Brennan’s assessment that Russia was vying for Trump, when in fact, the Russians appeared to be hopeful of a Clinton presidency.

“The FBI received information in June, 2017 which revealed that, among other things, there were personal and business ties between the sub-source and Steele’s Primary Sub-source, contacts between the sub-source and an individual in the Russian Presidential Administration in June/July 2016 [redacted] and the sub source voicing strong support for candidate Clinton in the 2016 U.S. election. The Supervisory Intel Analyst told us that the FBI did not have a Section 702 vicarage on any other Steele sub-source.”

Steele’s Lies

The complete four pages of the partially redacted footnotes paint a clear picture of the alleged malfeasance committed by former FBI Director James Comey, former DNI James Clapper and former CIA Director John Brennan, who were all aware of the concerns regarding the information supplied by former British spy Christopher Steele in the dossier. Steele, who was hired by the private embattled research firm Fusion GPS, was paid for his work through the Hillary Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee. The FBI also paid for Steele’s work before ending its confidential source relationship with him but then used Obama DOJ Official Bruce Ohr as a go between to continue obtaining information from the former spy.

  • Boaters For Trump

    Trump Flotilla 2020 (awesome)… – CITIZEN FREE PRESS
  • If Trump was to envoke those patriot/terrorism acts he would need at least the following-1) a close group of trusted advisors & administers and 2) a trusted arm of the military. I think most local police forces would assist, they are sick n tired of enforcing all these liberal draconian laws.

    • he has his attorney they can get the ball rolling.

    • In previous posts I suggested how he could amass the forces needed to clean house in 1-7 days after declaring martial law... and yes, the military is involved, but so are local sheriff's and chief's of police... who can be federalized upon declaring Martial Law...  However, the act would require great advanced planing ... in secret ... a very tightly held secret.

    • Most Sheriff Departments are on board.

       

  • Think clearly about this ..... Mueller, Comey and now Wray ???? WTH, all should be behind bars. They neither exemplify even one of the bureau's F - FIDELITY B - BRAVERY I - INTEGRITY ? ALL ARE COMPLICIT ! ALL CONNECTED. Think about the time frame with which these appointments were made. 

    All connected. BTW, Did everyone know the head director appointed by Fauci to lead the TOP SECRET International Research Facility at FT Detrick is Jens Kuhn a German National with Diplomatic Immunity? And 1 other question to postulate? Is Sina Bavari a US Citizen?

    • That's why we need Martial Law Marty... Martial Law is to be used whenever the civil authority is unable to maintain law and order.... if ever there was a case for Martial Law ... limited to DC and selected regions... it is today.  The current justice system is totally broken... it is unable to deliver the Rule of Law.

    • To your comments on foreign diplomacy-our Gov't has gone much more global than we know! The Chinese guy from Harvard caught w/ some viles of viruses? The CIA & state dept sharing & funding that Wuhan virus facility? WHY? There are so many foreign spies in our gov't, colleges & corps & we send our own (future globalist) around the globe to integrate. I don't think it's even possible to keep a secret these days because of all the national co-operations, our willingness to share or sell anything (Clintons), all the hacking & cyber attacks.

    • Remember when ?4498757723?profile=RESIZE_710x

    • CAN ANYONE DATE THIS PICTURE?? Does Clinton look like a boy scout (deff pre governor) and Bush? VP? I have crossed many references to grooming by the CIA in political books, blogs, etc...
