“Hillary Clinton tried to dismiss her role in paying for the “dossier” by stating that it was simply “opposition research.”29 While it is true that political campaigns often use such research, what Clinton, Simpson, Fusion GPS, and Steele did was antithetical to any definition of “research.” In a column published by The Hill, Ned Ryan explained it this way: Opposition research is based on fact, from voting records, court records and public statements, to tax returns and business relationships. Fusion GPS’s dossier, on the other hand, was misinformation. It was not opposition research because it was not based on fact. Given Fusion GPS’s dependence on Russian gossip spread by Vladimir Putin’s spies, there is a good case to be made that Fusion GPS more deeply colluded with the Russians than anyone else.30”

“In the FISA warrant application to spy on Page, the FBI knew, early on, that Steele was not a credible source. They learned that his assignment from Fusion GPS was purely for political reasons to damage Trump. They also learned that his efforts were funded by Trump’s election opponent, Hillary Clinton’s campaign, and the Democratic National Committee. This alone should have been enough for the FBI to disregard Steele and discard his “dossier” as lacking reliability as the law demands.”

“As the Observer described it, “The Clinton Foundation’s downward trajectory ever since Clinton’s election loss provides further testimony to claims that the organization was built on greed and the lust for power and wealth—not charity.”68”

“In a February 25, 2016, message, Page warned Strzok that he should go easy on Clinton because she was likely to win the presidency: PAGE: She might be our next president. The last thing you need (is) going in there loaded for bear. You think she’s going to remember or care that it was more DOJ than FBI?46”
