The FBI knew that the Steele dossier was paid for by Hillary before they applied for a FISA warrant

Wow this is truly amazing. Contrary to the story line put out by the Deep State and the Democrats the FBI knew that Steele's dossier was opposition research paid for by Hillary before they used it, without verification, to apply for a FISA warrant directed at the Trump campaign.

To see just how amazingly horrible that is imagine for a moment that when Trump Jr. met with that Russian lawyer she gave him unverified rumors that Hillary was in league with Russia and then Trump used that unverified information to get a FISA warrant to spy on one of Hillary's staffers?

The media howls would never end.  We know this because the Democrats and the #FakeNews media have been frothing at the mouth over Trump Jr's meeting even though no information was provided by the Russian. So if merely meeting with a Russian to get dirt on Hillary is evil incarnate what would funding Russians to produce unverified lies about Trump and then using those lies to get the US intelligence community to spy on Trump be?

This also means that Comey probably lied under oath when he said he didn't know for sure who paid for the Steele dossier. If everyone else at the top of the FBI knew it's unlikely that Comey didn't.
