The infamous anti-Trump dossier compiled by former British Spy Christopher Steele has created many problems for Democrats.
Information proving the Democrats and Hillary Clinton funded the dossier led towards an investigation into the motives behind the dossier.
And Attorney General Jeff Sessions just dropped the news that every Trump supporter has been waiting for.
While speaking to Maria Bartiromo, the host of Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Sessions was asked if he was investigating the fact that the FBI used the dossier to spy on Trump associates without telling the FISA court that the Democrats and Hillary Clinton paid for the dossier.
In response, Sessions stated:
“Let me tell you, every FISA warrant based on facts submitted to that court have to be accurate.”
“That will be investigated and looked at, and we are not going to participate as a Department of Justice in providing anything less than a proper disclosure to the court before they issue a FISA warrant. Other than that, I’m not going to talk about the details of it, but I tell you, we’re not going to let that happen.”
While Sessions did not provide any additional details about the investigation, he did make it clear if proof is provided that information was kept from the FISA court that something will be done about it.
As reported by The Daily Caller:
“Attorney General Jeff Sessions said Sunday that the Department of Justice is investigating whether the FBI submitted accurate information about the infamous Steele dossier in order to obtain a surveillance warrant against former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page.
“Are you, sir, investigating the fact that the FBI used the dossier to get a wiretap against Trump associates and they did not tell the FISA court that the Democrats and Hillary Clinton paid for the dossier?” Maria Bartiromo, the host of Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” asked Sessions.
“Let me tell you, every FISA warrant based on facts submitted to that court have to be accurate,” he replied.
“That will be investigated and looked at, and we are not going to participate as a Department of Justice in providing anything less than a proper disclosure to the court before they issue a FISA warrant. Other than that, I’m not going to talk about the details of it, but I tell you, we’re not going to let that happen.”
Sessions did not provide additional detail about the investigation, which has been urged by Republican lawmakers.”
The FBI and Justice Department submitted the application to the FISA court in order to spy on the Trump campaign in October of 2016.
That was just a month before he was elected President.
Timing is everything, during that period Hillary Clinton was under intense scrutiny for her email scandal.
Could this FISA warrant have been a ploy to attempt to gain information against the Trump campaign?
These are the questions that Sessions’ investigation is expected to answer.
Do you think the result of the investigation will be bad news for Democrats?
