Down accurately. thats what steele was doing. thats what people need to understand. >> first of all, what do you make of his integrity? its been so damaged in the public domain, christopher steele. >> i dont know the man, but by all account, hes writing down what people tell him. >> did michael cohen go to prague? lets get the tape. are we not going to discuss this? that was from the dossier, right? >> it was from the dossier, pete. let me be difficult for a moment. >> go ahead. im used to it. >...

It caused a stir when with buzzfeed published it almost a year ago now, the so-called steel dossier collected by a former british intelligence officer named christopher steel. the fbi just released a summary of those reports which james comey used to brief president-elect donald trump. we have gone back to the dossier to see if the dossier has affected the reporting. the dossier holds up well over time, nub of it to our knowledge, though, has been disproven. chuck, i want the start with the newe...

Dont know. >> dont know. >> outside of the zen, check, so we hear the critics sometimes dialed up to volume 11 talking about how the steele dossier formed the basis for any fisa warrants, any surveillance warrants issued by the judge. whats your take on that based on everything youve reviewed? >> well, and you know this better than me, glenn. in order to get a warrant from a fisa court, you only need problem ble cause and thats reasonably easy for a good prosecutor to get. the steele dossier for...

Thing. i did it with sara, a naval academy of the graduate and a marine corps officer. shes a very impressive young woman. we wanted to see was this born out over time? but only by official reporting. so you say that, help us understand what you havent been able to. so weve read a lot of reporting about trump tower. >> that doesnt mean it didnt happen, steele allegations ties between the trump campaign and russian intelligence. we see pieces of it, right? when mueller indicted the russian milita...

So-called trump dossier, that collection of unverified allegations against donald trump that was compiled by christopher steele that former british spy who was being paid by the democratic national committee and clinton campaign. one of the things that are going to be declassified are what are called the bruce ohr 302s. it was referred to memos the f.b.i. wrote each time they interviewed bruce ohr. he served as the go between between christopher steele and the f.b.i. ohr would meet with steele a...

It was used to obtain authorization that let the government conduct surveillance on carter page for nearly a year, starting in the fall of 2016. but republicans argue that it should never have been authorized in the first place because it relied on information in the so-called steele dossier. they believed by declassifying more of the application it will prove the fbi got the warrant under false pretenses. devin nunez is one of the lawmakers who has been calling for this. heres what he said back...

The steele dossier is just a partisan document made up of made-up allegations paid for by the clinton campaign. because of that some republicans say the warrant itself is illegitimate. they also say the fdi lied to the court, proving theyre corrupt and out to get the president and his allies. in other words, its all a witch hunt. hold on a minute, how about some facts. previously released information shows the fbi did tell the judges about the steele dossier and it shows that the fbi had suspici...

Fans because he is running for president. i dont have time to run it now, but then he went on to call his actions today "a spartacus moment." even though he did zero, nothing courageous. he broke no rules, faced no consequences, just a blatant play to his base, just so he can run for president in 2020. but in his mind, he rose to a level of a roman gladiator for a cause, calling himself a hero for doing absolutely nothing. like colin kaepernick going going 1-11. of course, the nfl is unfair to m...

And i will get in there if i have to. >> the whole world gets it, he went on the say. keeping them honest, though, what the whole world gets seems to be something quite different than the message the president gives. 63% of respondents in a new abc/"washington post" survey support the mueller investigation. only 29% oppose it. the poll also shows record high disapproval of the presidents performance on the job. more on that shortly. more as well on the revelations by one of the presidents bogeym...

Witch hunt. hes also threatened to strip ohrs security clearance. no one has produced any shred of evidence that ohr did something wrong. nevertheless, he is now the key villain in a far right conspiracy theory claiming that the whole russia probe was made up out of thin air by the presidents political foes. it centers on ohrs relationship with christopher steele, the former british spy who compiled that explosive intelligence dossier on the presidents alleged ties to russia and on ohrs wife, ne...
