(National Sentinel) Conspiracy: The chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, Rep. Mark Meadows, said Wednesday night during a Fox News appearance that many things he and other lawmakers are learning about the so-called “Trump dossier” are “so unbelievable.”
Meadows, a Republican from North Carolina, appeared with Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, and Circa News investigative reporter Sara Carter, who reported exclusively on Wednesday that the FBI did indeed use the discredited dossier to obtain a FISA court warrant to spy on the Trump campaign.
Hannity agreed, saying that he verified that same piece of information from three additional sources.
As for Meadows, he noted, “Some of the things that will be coming out are so unbelievable that the FBI and DOJ would actually allow it to happen. And I would also say that there are other agencies… We are focusing in, honing in on that target.”
Watch the exchange:
In a series of tweets, Meadows said that Jan. 10 marked the one-year anniversary of the introduction of the dossier, which was published in full by Buzzfeed News, with the caveat that none of what it contained had been verified (Buzzfeed has been sued multiple times for defamation by several people named in the document, the most recent being President Donald J. Trump’s personal lawyer).
He also noted five questions which Congress and investigators are still seeking answers for regarding the dossier.
Today is the 1 year anniversary of the publication of the infamous Russian dossier, developed by Christopher Steele and Fusion GPS, and funded by the Clinton campaign. Here are 5 questions that still need answering ??

1. Why did the FBI pay Christopher Steele for the Fusion GPS dossier, a political project paid for by the Clinton campaign? Why was the FBI involved in paying for a Democrat political project?

2. Why did intelligence officials wait 2 months after the election (Jan 6, 2017) to brief President-elect Trump on the dossier? Why brief him on a document that James Comey later admitted was "salacious and unverified?" Did they need that briefing to legitimize the dossier?

3. Did the FBI take the Clinton paid-for dossier to the FISA Court in 2016 and use it to spy on the Trump campaign? We’ve asked for the FISA application, and they won’t tell us.

4. Why did Bruce Ohr, an Obama DOJ lawyer, meet with Fusion GPS Founder Glenn Simpson right after the 2016 election?

5. Did President Obama's DOJ, using the Fusion GPS dossier, target their political opponents during the 2016 campaign?

Question No. 3, at least, appears to have been answered.
