    Its no conspiracy that 5 of Ma Barkers Crime family had to take the 5th, so as to not incriminate themselves or Ma Barker.

    So you believe a subordinate changed the Director's language on an official report? I find that truly hard to believe.

    I don't believe he did it on his own without some prodding from above either.

    You can't get any higher than the FBI Director unless the subordinate was authorized to go above the Director's head by his boss at the DOJ and Comey was given no choice and was forced to change his statement. I don't really believe that was the case.

    Nah Page testified. Ma Barkers crime family took the 5th with DOJ and Congress. The Demos know how to play the slim shady good like that.

    But maybe some fresh air?
    I doubt the FBI will produce documents adequate to show they verified that dossier, expect most of anything they do produce will be redacted anyway and anticipate there will be a claim revealing sources and methods will endanger national security. Maybe someone here who knows its all been verified can earn an easy $50k.

    Trump shouldn't testify. Whats he suppose to testify too? Or for?


    How Bruce Ohr Could Implicate High-Ranking Obama Officials In Spygate
    Reporting on Bruce Ohr suggests DOJ and FBI employees operated outside the chain of command and concealed evidence from congressional oversight committees.


    Investigative reporter John Solomon broke news last week of texts and emails between former associate deputy attorney general Bruce Ohr and Trump dossier author Christopher Steele regarding the Russia investigation, and revealed the content of notes Ohr took during a December meeting with Steele’s boss at Fusion GPS, Glenn Simpson.

    Solomon’s reporting confirmed the FBI used Ohr to continue gathering information from Steele, even after the former British spy was terminated as a source by the bureau because he leaked word of the investigation to the press. Ohr’s role as a conduit allowed the FBI to continue to use Steele as an indirect source, even after Trump was elected and inaugurated.

    The details revealed in the emails and texts, in conjunction with previously released information, suggest DOJ and FBI employees operated outside the chain of command, misled their bosses (and the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court), and concealed evidence from congressional oversight committees. Let’s review two key questions the revelations raise.

    1. How and why was Rosenstein kept in the dark?

    This timing proves significant, because it means Rosenstein did not know about Ohr’s involvement in the Russia investigation, or Steele’s continued role as a source when he signed off on the fourth and final Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) application from the FBI to spy on Page.

    2. Did Ohr keep Sally Yates in the dark too?


    This exchange suggests Yates’ removal concerned Steele and left him worried that without Yates at the helm, Ohr’s continued role as a DOJ liaison for Steele was at risk, and that without Yates or Ohr, he would need to work directly with the FBI.

    Was that because Yates approved of Ohr acting as a dossier courier for Steele and the FBI? If so, the Spygate scandal reaches into even higher echelons of the Deep State than previously known. Ohr has a pretty good incentive to come clean and expose anyone else at the DOJ (or in the Obama administration) involved in the decision to continue to use Steele as a source. Otherwise Ohr will hold sole responsibility for going rogue......snip~

    And now that Ohr will , FINALLY, be deposed by Congress, the Fake News is trying to DOWNPLAY his high rank in the DOJ when he was engaged in the illegal espionage against the Trump campaign....
