*'''Comey, Clapper and Brennan brief the President-elect.''' Comey, Clapper, Brennan and Mike Rogers travel to Trump Tower to brief President-elect Trump on the ''Intelligence Community Assessment'' of Russian election interference. At the end of the meeting Comey asks for a one-on-one briefing with President-elect. Comey tells President-elect of the "salacios" allegations manufactured by the Clinton campaign, makes no mention of their origin, or of the FBI's surveillance of [[Carter Page]], [[Paul Manafort]], and [[Michael Cohen]] based on the same Hillary Clinton opposition research, and represents it as supposed "intelligence".

*'''Comey to Clapper: Mission Accomplished'''. Comey memo notes, {{quotebox|'''I said there was something that Clapper wanted me to speak to the PE [President-Elect] about alone or in a very small group.<br><br>I then executed the session exactly as I had planned.''' I told him [President Trump] that I wanted to meet with him to tell him more about what is in the reports written by [redacted – likely Steele]. I said that the written reports themselves were [redacted] and '''the content known at IC senior level''' and that I didn’t want him to get caught cold by some of the detail.<br><br>I said I wasn’t saying this was true, only that I wanted him to know both that '''it had been reported and that the reports were in many hands'''. I said media like '''CNN had them and were looking for a news hook'''. I said it was '''important that we not give them the excuse to write that the FBI has the material''' or [REDACTED] and that '''we were keeping it very close-hold'''. [''bolden added'']}} The media had widely dismissed the ''Steele dossier'' as unsubstantiated and unreportable. Clapper's second leak to CNN - that Comey had briefed President-elect Trump - created the news hook CNN was looking for.
