Quote:House Republicans say the closed-door testimony of Justice Department official Bruce Ohr on Tuesday has heightened their concerns that federal authorities abused surveillance powers during the 2016 presidential election.

GOP lawmakers, trickling in and out of the roughly eight-hour interview, claimed Ohr indicated in his testimony that FBI officials knew more information than they led on in their application to obtain a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant on former Trump campaign aide Carter Page.

Now, House Republicans are suggesting the FBI withheld key information in their application in order to obtain a warrant.

“Not only did the FBI know that the dossier was unverified, but they also knew there was real credibility issues or it would never end up in a courtroom because of the inherent way it was collected and the bias that was associated with that,” said Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), one of the fiercest DOJ critics, noting that lawmakers have to verify such claims.

Then there was this gem in the story:

Quote:Majority and minority staff on the two committees questioned Ohr on Tuesday, though no Democratic lawmakers made an appearance for the interview. Seven Republicans attended the sit-down.

It was probably a good thing Steve Cohen wasnt there, less they all would have to endure the fellatio session he would have given Ohr.

I'm glad no Dems attended. Now, the Dems can not say ANYTHING about the information shared in that meeting because they lack first-hand knowledge.

Anything they say would simply be hearsay.

They effectively rendered themselves neutered.
