FBI Offered Christopher Steele $1M For Evidence Backing Up Dossier Claims About Trump: FBI Analyst

The FBI offered Christopher Steele $1 million if he could prove allegations recorded in his now-infamous dossier, a senior FBI analyst said in court on Tuesday.

FBI analyst Brian Auten testified in the trial of Igor Danchenko, the primary source of allegations in Steele’s dossier, that the bureau placed a $1 million price tag on confirmation of the dossier’s outlandish allegations. Steele was unable to provide any evidence.

Auten said he and a group of FBI agents met with Steele in October of 2021 and offered the former British spy $1 million for evidence supporting the dossier, according to Fox News. The FBI’s offer came years after it had used the dossier’s claims to secure FISA warrants to surveil former President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign.

“On October 21, 2016, did you have any information to corroborate that information?” Durham asked Auten, referencing the date the first FISA application to surveil former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page was filed.

“No,” Auten responded, according to Fox News.

Auten testified that the FBI offered Steele “up to $1 million” for proof substantiating allegations made in a series of reports to the bureau over the course of several months in 2016. The analyst said Steele never received any money because he could not “prove the allegations,” according to CNN. Steel’s reports were eventually compiled into the dossier first published by BuzzFeed News in January 2017.

Danchenko has pleaded not guilty to lying to the FBI. His trial is the last scheduled as part of special counsel John Durham’s investigation into the origins of the Trump/Russia collusion hoax before Durham issues his final report.

But, I still don't want Tulsi Gabbard to join the Republican party. She's still too far left of center but the woke/commie/socialist make her look far right. What she needs to work on is retaking her Democrat party instead of giving up. Kick those commie/socialist in the ass!
 
MSNBC Reporter Says Fetterman ‘Had a Hard Time Understanding’ Their Conversation During Face-to-Face Interview


MSNBC and NBC News reporter Dasha Burns previewed her recent sit-down with Pennsylvania Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman on Tuesday and revealed the “unconventional” needs the exchange required following the Democrat’s stroke, as well as her own impressions after talking to him.


Burns discussed the exclusive interview with MSNBC’s Katy Tur who immediately asked for Burns’ impression on Fetterman’s health, which has been under scrutiny with his opponent Mehmet Oz’s campaign specifically taking shots after the health crisis.

Oh how horrible! It's getting really bad when Fetterman has a huge billboard accusing Oz of being a Cowboys fan, unforgivable - although that might play for Eagles or Steelers fans.

 
Yeah, for the "average voter", brain dead idiot, which football team you like is the most important factor when electing a US Senator. Especially in Pennsylvania apparently. That's how stupid Fetterperson thinks his supporters are.
 
"Would be an interesting race if she ran for president too"

Who's Afraid Of Tulsi Gabbard? Everyone...
