FBI releases Comey dossier summary – By OAN Newsroom (oann.com) / Dec 15 2018
A summary of the Steele dossier is released by the FBI shedding light on how it was used leading up to the special counsel investigation.
The bureau released the two page document Saturday which was used by former FBI director James Comey to brief both President Obama and Trump.
The summary shows the FBI claimed Steele was working for private clients, when in reality he was working for the DNC and the Clinton campaign.

Republicans have accused the FBI of relying too heavily on the unverified document in their investigation into Russian collusion.
In his testimony on Capitol Hill, Comey said he didn’t know the origins of the dossier, with some saying that claim is without merit.
Republicans have been trying to get more information on the dossier, and how it was used to obtain a FISA warrant on carter page.
They even allege it was the dossier that kick-started the special counsel probe.
