Jake Tapper reported that government sources confirmed it was the wrong "Michael Cohen" who allegedly travelled to [[Prague]] to pay the [[KGB]] to hack into the DNC as the Democrat talking points contend, further debunking the ''Steele dossier''.<ref>https://mobile.twitter.com/jaketapper/status/819187673961287681 </ref> Unauthorized FISA-702 search results were passed on to [[Christopher Steele]] by [[Nellie Ohr]]. Steele used dates and times from electronic surveillance that could be corroborated, then added a fictionalized narrative in the ''[[Clinton-Steele dossier]]''. The dossier was passed back to the FBI to create deniability that the so-called "evidence" did not originate from illegal surveillance. Coming from outside the government, it could be used as [[probable cause]] in their [[counterintelligence]] investigation. Evidence of the complete illegality of the Obama administrations scheme is in Dir. Comey's willful failure to notify the Congressional [[Gang of Eight]] of the operation. | Jake Tapper reported that government sources confirmed it was the wrong "Michael Cohen" who allegedly travelled to [[Prague]] to pay the [[KGB]] to hack into the DNC as the Democrat talking points contend, further debunking the ''Steele dossier''.<ref>https://mobile.twitter.com/jaketapper/status/819187673961287681 </ref> Unauthorized FISA-702 search results were passed on to [[Christopher Steele]] by [[Nellie Ohr]].
