James Comey recently testified to Congress that the FISA warrant application relied on the Hillary dossier. That comes as no surprise since that was basically all they had. They cited an article by Michael Isikoff of Yahoo News, but that article was written based on what Christopher Steele told Isikoff, therefore it was the same as the dossier and not a separate source. The problem for John Brennan is that he testified under oath that the Hillary dossier was not important in getting the FISA warrant against Carter Page, a premise that James Comey blew out of the water.<\/h3>\n

From Breitbart News<\/a>
\nIn testimony, former FBI Director James Comey contradicted the claim made during previous testimony by former CIA Director John Brennan that the anti-Trump dossier was \u201cnot in any way used as the basis for the intelligence community\u2019s assessment\u201d that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The dossier, authored by former British spy Christopher Steele, was produced by the controversial Fusion\u00a0GPS<\/a>\u00a0firm. Fusion was paid for the dossier work by Trump\u2019s main political opponents, namely Hillary Clinton\u2019s 2016 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) via the Perkins Coie law firm.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A January 6 U.S. Intelligence Community (IC)\u00a0report\u00a0<\/u><\/a>released by Comey\u2019s FBI, Brennan\u2019s CIA and the NSA under Mike Rogers assessed that Russia attempted to interfere in the 2016 presidential election. It also claimed that Russia worked to aid Trump\u2019s electoral victory.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSo do you recall whether any quote, crown material or dossier material was included in the IC assessment?\u201d Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) asked Comey.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cYes,\u201d Comey replied. \u201cI\u2019m going to be careful here because I\u2019m talking about a document that\u2019s still classified. The unclassified thing we talked about earlier today, the first paragraph you can see of exhibit A, is reflective of the fact that at least some of the material that Steele had collected was in the big thing called the intelligence community assessment in an annex called annex A.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
