As the Resistance tries desperately to keep the Russian collusion narrative alive with lame-AF hashtags on Twitter, seriously big things are happening around the FBI and their Steele story. Nick Short breaks it all down way better than we can …

Memo flagged false intel, media contacts by Steele before FBI used dossier for FISA https://t.co/KZPjgCHLpM — Nick Short (@PoliticalShort) May 9, 2019

From The Hill:

Steele eventually was fired by the FBI for leaking to the press — in violation of his source agreement with the bureau — and lying about it. But that did not happen until Nov. 1, 2016 — after the FISA warrant was secured. And, even then, the court wasn’t notified until a few months later, well after Election Day. Steele’s admission of media contacts on Oct. 11, 2016, and the mere existence of his meeting at the State Department likewise violated his confidentiality agreement with the bureau and clearly were discoverable well before the FISA warrant was secured Oct. 21, 2016. If the State Department and Ohr could figure out that Steele was a partisan, paid by a political client and facing an Election Day deadline to broadcast raw intelligence that in some cases probably was false, the FBI should have done the same before it ever envisioned taking his evidence to a FISA court.

Holy crap.

Double holy crap.

So much holy crap.

Deputy Assistant Secretary of State Kathleen Kavalec wrote on Oct. 11, 2016, that Steele told her the Russians had constructed a “technical/human operation run out of Moscow targeting the election” that recruited emigres in the U.S. to “do hacking and recruiting.” — Nick Short (@PoliticalShort) May 9, 2019

*popcorn*

She quoted Steele as saying, “Payments to those recruited are made out of the Russian Consulate in Miami.” Kavalec bluntly debunked that assertion in a bracketed comment: “It is important to note that there is no Russian consulate in Miami.” Wow! This is FUBAR! — Nick Short (@PoliticalShort) May 9, 2019

WOW THIS IS FUBAR.

Officials KNEW parts of Steele dossier was false 10 days BEFORE FISA application to spy – oops… sorry… electronically surveil) on @Carterwpage. https://t.co/nvZSbz5ZW4 — Larry O'Connor (@LarryOConnor) May 9, 2019

No wonder we’re seeing so much panic from the Left.

Comey’s fbi was crooked as a dog’s hind leg? FBI's Steele story falls apart: False intel and media contacts were flagged before FISA https://t.co/I6zCRH2D62 — Atomic Hillbilly ⚓️❌ (@TheGreatKazooki) May 9, 2019

Yuuuuuuuuup.

Bad stuff.

Important to note that it’s now A FACT and can be PROVEN that the FBI knew the Steele dossier was unverified BEFORE they swore to the FISA court that it was verified information. In other words, it can now be proven the FBI’s affiant lied to the court..a Federal crime. — MAGAButters (@ButtersStotch77) May 9, 2019
