After months of stonewalling and just plain ignoring it, the FBI has finally, FINALLY agreed to comply with the subpoena of information relating to the business relationship with Christopher Steele, the MI6 agent responsible for the infamous Trump-Russia dossier.







Recall that the dossier was used by the FBI as the premise for obtaining a FISA warrant to wiretap Trump associates. The provenance of the document is still in question, and it’s mind-boggling that it has taken this long for the FBI to hand over relevant documents. Espcially considering Comey’s departure and the appointment of Christopher Wray by President Trump.

From the Wall Street Journal:

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is expected to hand over to Congress documents related to a controversial and unverified dossier on President Donald Trump by next week, ending a long-running impasse between lawmakers and federal law enforcement. Speaking to reporters, House Speaker Paul Ryan said that the FBI had agreed to provide documents long sought by Congress in a variety of investigations under way, including information about a 35-page research document containing unverified allegations about Mr. Trump’s ties to Russia. “The point of these investigations is to find the truth and to make sure if laws were violated or mistakes were made, they’re not made again. And transparency is what gets you that,” Mr. Ryan said. “The FBI got in touch with us yesterday afternoon. They have informed us that they will comply with our document requests and they will provide the documents that Congress has been asking for by next week. And we expect the FBI to honor that commitment,” Mr. Ryan said.

This could turn out to be quite a show.
