House Intel Committee Subpoenas FBI, DOJ Over Trump Dossier

The House Intelligence Committee has subpoenaed the FBI and the Justice Department for documents relating to the Trump "dodgy dossier," the Washington Examiner reported Tuesday evening. The committee is seeking information regarding the FBI's relationship with dossier author Christopher Steele and its possible role in funding what started out as an opposition research project by shady lefty research firm Fusion GPS.

While it has been widely reported that "a wealthy GOP donor" originally funded the anti-Trump dossier, the managers of the Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, and John Kasich campaigns have all told the Examiner's Byron York that they knew nothing about a GOP-funded oppo-research project on Trump. Meanwhile, Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson has refused to answer the question about who bankrolled the dossier.

The House Intel Committee is one of several congressional committees looking into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. Additionally, Justice Department Special Counsel Robert Mueller is leading a separate investigation into alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Oh please. Give it a f--king rest. There is no collusion between Trump and Russia. If you need to investigate something investigate Hillary and her collusion with Russia. I really think you are investigating the wrong person.
