Did Fusion Buy DOJ Access By Paying Wife?

Under a contract from the Clinton campaign, the Fusion GPS research firm was paying the wife of a senior Department of Justice official as part of its efforts to gather opposition research on Trump, and the same official then brought that research to the FBI.

Knowledge of the relationship has raised questions about the extent to which the firm may have paid for heightened access to the criminal justice system, and whether they would have hired Nellie Ohr absent her spousal connection to the DoJ.

A declassified memo said Bruce “Ohr’s wife was employed by Fusion GPS to assist in the cultivation of opposition research on Trump. Ohr later provided the FBI with all of his wife’s opposition research, paid for by the DNC and Clinton campaign via Fusion GPS. The Ohrs’ relationship with Steele and Fusion GPS was inexplicably concealed from the” court when it was used to obtain a surveillance warrant.

They're all as crooked as a snake with scoliosis.
The ONLY Russian collusion was from the pro-Hillary team.

Just as much a bribe as Slick Willie's speaking fees. Meaning you betcha! Or Moochie's do-nothing job getting a $200k raise when Zero was elected to the Senate.
