We are now learning that in 2016, the FBI offered Chris Steele $1 million dollars to prove his allegations in the phony dossier used to try and destroy Trump.
The revelation came from testimony in the Durham case against Igor Danchenko.
Here’s more via Newsmax:
The first prosecution witness was FBI analyst Brian Auten, who testified that information from the Steele dossier was used to support a surveillance warrant against a Trump campaign official, Carter Page.
Under questioning from Durham, Auten testified that the dossier was used to bolster the surveillance application even though the FBI couldn’t corroborate its allegations.
Auten said the FBI checked with other government agencies to see if they had corroboration but nothing came back. Auten and other FBI agents even met with Steele in the United Kingdom in 2016 and offered him as much as $1 million if he could supply corroboration for the allegations in the dossier, but none was provided.
Obama and Comey’s FBI really wanted these phony dossier allegations to be true. Offering a sizable sum to prove allegations just shows how they were working to destroy Trump with the Hillary Clinton campaign and the DNC.
It just shows how damned political and utterly corrupt the law enforcement agency was in those days. And still is unfortunately.
Even if Durham is able to successfully prosecute Danchenko, it just feels like small potatoes because the real criminals in this saga were the officials and agents working at the FBI, as well as Hillary Clinton and the DNC.
