In light of the blockbuster revelation last week that the Obama ICA on Russian meddling was based on lies known to the FBI and CIA at the time, it’s worth revisiting the Steele dossier “annex” that was included in the ICA. By the time the ICA was ordered, written, and published, Christopher Steele had already been fired as a source by the FBI for leaking his dossier to the media. The FBI knew he was no longer a source, they knew who he leaked to, and they knew what he leaked. And despite that knowledge, the “annex” fraudulently referred to Steele as an “FBI source” at least 11 separate times, including in the heading on the document: “Additional Reporting From an FBI Source on Russian Influence Efforts.” The FBI knew Steele was not an FBI source at the time, but chose to deliberately lie about that. Later in the annex, the document claimed that “the source’s reporting appears to have acquired by multiple Western press organizations, starting in October.” The FBI knew Steele gave it to those outlets. The FBI knew Steele was being funded by the Clinton campaign. The FBI lied about and omitted these facts in the ICA “annex.” The FBI “annex” also falsely claimed that Steele’s reporting had been “corroborated.” Not only did the FBI not corroborate any of Steele’s anti-Trump claims, it was aware that many were outright fabrications. In addition to the scores of lies peddled in the Steele dossier “annex” to the ICA, we also know that former CIA director John Brennan repeatedly lied, including to Congress, when he claimed the main ICA body never included or referenced claims from the bogus Steele dossier. The only question now is whether Brennan and Comey will finally be held accountable for the fraudulent conspiracy which they are still actively perpetrating against the U.S.
