The Disgraceful Plot To Illegally Exonerate Hillary Clinton

The More Powerful The Perpetrator, The Greater Her Prerogative To Define Reality
On January 4th of this year, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA), Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), senior member of the Committee, delivered a letter to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and FBI Director Christopher Wray referring Trump dossier author Christopher Steele for criminal investigation for lying to federal authorities. To support the referral, they attached documentation showing direct communications between the British spy and “multiple U.S. news outlets”.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), ranking member of the Committee, slammed the referral claiming it contains “numerous flaws and omits facts.”  She also contends the Grassley/Graham letter attempts to “undermine the FBI and cast aspersions on Special Counsel Mueller’s investigation.”
One name recently linked to the dossier is Daniel Jones, a former investigator for Sen. Feinstein when she chaired the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Soon after reports of the Grassley/Graham letter emerged, Joe DiGenova began warning the public about “the weaponization of the FBI for political purposes by all the people at the upper echelon of the Bureau.” 
DiGenova is not a nobody.  In 1992, he was appointed Independent Counsel in the Clinton Passport File Search matter.  As United States Attorney, District of Columbia, he supervised federal criminal and civil matters including public corruption, espionage, fraud and international terrorism. He led the prosecution of Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard.  He was the Principal Assistant U.S. Attorney during the prosecution of attempted Reagan assassin, John Hinckley. He has also served as Chief Counsel and Staff Director of the Senate Rules Committee and Counsel to the Senate Judiciary, Governmental Affairs and Select Intelligence Committees.
About the “weaponization” of the FBI; it’s important to keep in mind the following tick-tock:
Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder left the Department of Justice on September 25, 2014.  The World’s Most Dangerous Community Organizer appointed former President Bill Clinton’s nominee for U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, Loretta Lynch, to replace Holder as AG.  Lynch was confirmed on April 23, 2015.  A month-and-a-half later, Donald Trump announced his candidacy for president on June 16, 2015.
During Lynch’s confirmation hearings she generally defended the president’s policies but did say she viewed the role of the Justice Department as being an independent constitutional authority whose clients are the American people, not the president or Congress. I needn’t remind you she scandalously met with Bill Clinton on the tarmac at the Phoenix airport on June 30, 2016.
Lynch, at the time, painted an innocent portrait of their curious conversation. “Our conversation was a great deal about grandchildren, it was primarily social about our travels and he mentioned golf he played in Phoenix.”
Back to DiGenova.  He ominously began speaking out about the shenanigans at the FBI after the release of the Grassley/Graham letter. 
"This is the worst period in the history of the bureau─much worse than the late [J. Edgar] Hoover period when they were spying on domestic groups. This was the weaponization of the FBI for political purposes by all the people at the upper echelon of the bureau."
"There is enough evidence on the public record with the information from the Inspector General and from The Hill with the legal release of documents, that it is clear Mr. McCabe and others engaged in highly improper, probably illegal activity in the FISA court stuff along with the dossier from Christopher Steele."
"This is a dark moment for the FBI," DiGenova declared. "It's gonna to take a lot for them to recover from this. Comey was a dirty cop and unfortunately he dirtied up everybody else around him," DiGenova concluded.
In his May 2017 testimony before the House Intelligence Committee, former CIA Director John Brennan emphatically denied the dossier factored into the Intelligence Community’s publicly released conclusion last year that Russia meddled in the 2016 election "to help Trump’s chances of victory.”  He also swore he did not know who commissioned the dossier even though officials at the DOJ and FBI knew it had been paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes plans to release a separate report detailing the Obama State Department’s role in creating and disseminating the dossier─which has emerged as the foundation of the Obama Administration's Russia “collusion” investigation. Among other things, the report will identify diplomats who worked with partisan operatives close to Hillary to help ex-British spy Christopher Steele compile the dossier.
Nunes will focus on Brennan as well as Obama’s first CIA director, Leon Panetta, along with the former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and National Security Adviser Susan Rice as well as UN Ambassador Samantha Power.
According to Real Clear Investigations, several Capitol Hill sources say “Brennan was a fiercely loyal Obama appointee who talked up the dossier to Democratic leaders, as well as the press during the campaign. They say he also fed allegations about Trump-Russia contacts directly to the FBI, while pressuring the Bureau to conduct an investigation of several Trump campaign figures starting in the summer of 2016.”
Just weeks before Trump was inaugurated, investigators say Brennan made certain the contents of the dossier were attached to Obama’s Presidential Daily Briefing. The contents of the PDB were then leaked to the media.
Brennan later swore the dossier did not “in any way” factor into the CIA's assessment that Russia interfered in the election to help Trump. However, congressional investigators suggest a still-classified version of the January 2017 intelligence report contradicts his claim. 
"I'm pretty troubled by what I read in the documents with respect to the role the State Department played in the fall of 2016, including information that was used in a court proceeding. I am troubled by it," said Rep. Trey Gowdy, a member of the House Intelligence Committee.
Last week, perhaps not coincidentally, Brennan signed a contract with NBC News and MSNBC to be their “senior national security and intelligence analyst.”
