    emptywheel Retweeted Rudy Giuliani

    This is false: Ohr did not "work on" the dossier. He did, however, try to prevent Russian organized crime. Maybe that's what bugs Rudy?https://twitter.com/RudyGiuliani/status/1036068045989371909 …

    Bruce Ohr worked on Steele dossier while at DOJ. His wife worked for FusionGPS, company peddling lies about President Trump, and was paid by them. A CRIME. 18 USC 208. If they worked for Trump campaign they would now be arrested. Let’s see if media covers it.

        He's also wrong on the law, even with his version of the facts.

        Yes. But given that Ohr may have his clearance stripped improperly let's make sure we catalog the lies.

        Are we even sure Brennan had his actually stripped?

        Replying to @706b30 @waltshaub

        No. But "stripping" it publicly from someone who doesn't use it, Trump can get the shock value w/o the lawsuit exposure or paperwork. Stripping Ohr's will be far harder.

        Bruce Ohr didn't work on the false Russian dossier? But his wife did? Ohr passed the false Russian dossier funded by the Hillary campaign through back channels into the FBI.

        The author of the dossier, Steele, is on the record for stating his adamant stance against the Trump candidacy. He’s also on the record stating that he didn’t believe a lot of the information in the dossier was true or even possible to verify.

        Bruce Ohr knew all that. He knew of his own personal conflict of interest. It wasn’t even his job at the FBI to be investigating Russia-Trump Collusion yet he funneled that garbage in which was used as the basis for a FISA warrant.

        In Gubarev v. Orbis "Defendants' Response to Claimants' Request for Further Information Pursuant CPR Part 18 in British court. Steele was sued for defamation. He stated that his allegations against Trump were based on limited intelligence and that they were "unverifiable."

        But what do you make of the NYT story about unsuccessful efforts to flip Deripaska? I worry that unless they get a Deripaska-level Russian to flip, they will not have the evidentiary narrative to tie together the high-level conspiracy that appears to have taken place here.

        There’s a very good chance that Nelly Ohr wrote a portion of this dossier. Not outside the realm of possibility that Bruce was involved as well.

        There is zero chance, given the sworn public record, that Nelly Ohr wrote a portion of what is known as the dossier. But by all means, make shit up.
