The FBI caught telling lies again

We now know that despite the FBI's claim that they stopped using Steele as a source after he was caught lying to them about his contacts with the media the FBI continued to receive, through Bruce Ohr a senior Justice Department employee, information from Steele.

This is a clear indication of the FBI's lack of concern about Steele's clear dishonesty.

Further we know from what Ohr has said that the FBI knew that Steele had a very strong bias against Trump prior to the FBI using Steele's dossier, which has admitted in court is not verified in any way, to get a FISA warrant against Carter Page.  Yet in that FISA warrant application the FBI vouched for Steele but did not mention that they knew that Steele was not an unbiased source when it came to Trump and his campaign.

Another thing we know is that when the FBI found out that someone on Democrat Senator Diane Feinstein's staff was a Chinese spy they notified her. But when the FBI suspected a staffer on Trump's campaign was a Russian spy they didn't warn Trump.

It's clear from revelation after revelation that the way the FBI and DOJ spied on Trump's campaign in the absence of any actual evidence--remember the Steele dossier was unverified and based solely no second, third and worse hand rumors from Russian sources--is very different than the way they handle other investigations.

The reality is that this whole thing is much much worse than Watergate because in Watergate a few people in the Nixon campaign committed crimes spying on the Democrat Presidential campaign which is no where near as bad as Obama subverting the FBI and the DOJ to spy on the Republican Presidential campaign.
