'Dossier' author Chris Steele refutes key points in DOJ watchdog report on Russia probe. Steele says the IG report contains several 'serious errors and misstatements.'

FBI director addresses inspector general report

Christopher Steele, the author of the controversial"Steele dossier" and a central figure in the Justice Department inspector general's, says the report included"several serious errors and misstatements." Steele also said in the statement that his firm Orbis was informed by the Inspector General's Office late Sunday night that the previously redacted material in the report -- which included some"negative information" about Steele, such as negative assessments related to Steele's primary source -- had been unredacted and that Orbis was given no opportunity to review or comment on the material before its release on Monday.

This foreigner colluded with Clinton & the old battle ax still lost!! But let’s keep Russia going? Hussein got flexible with his butt buddy Vlad on video but who cares about that? Obama bent over for every dictator ever & he got so awesomely rich!!! No problem with that?

Hmm...believe an impartial watchdog investigator or a thoroughly discredited former intelligence guy with a political axe to grind...

It is not the IG report that contains 'several serious errors and misstatements'. It is Chris Steele's 'Dossier'! He was paid for this dossier by the DNC & Hillary. What else is there to know?

Why is this foreign agent still running his mouth? Shouldn’t he be arrested for interfering in our elections?

I’m sure Senate Intelligence would be more than happy to have him clear the air. Name the day.

Omg. Sit this one out buddy.

Seriously ?

Isn't Donald Trump daughter Ivanka and Chris Steele Friends.

ABC reports this?

He should come in and provide public testimony for all to see then.

Democrats have become absolute lunatics!

Good heavens the tweets on this thread are sickening!

He was a highly respected British M16 intelligence officer. He's an expert on Russia. He was concerned about what he discovered, so he informed our government. He's a hero.

Disagreeing with a statement is not 'refuting' it, you hacks.

Did he say that while he was enjoying Ivanka's company ? And was jarred there watching?

Lol, of course he would. This guy is a cancer.

Seems like a pretty key omission every time trump attacks Steele that he doesn't mention Steele had a close personal relationship with the family.

Steele doesn't get to say ANYTHING anymore!

The 'news' chimes in.

The creators of 'SLAUGHTER IN SYRIA' has combined the reports of 'Foreign Hitman' Chris Steele is now taking reservations for the upcoming 2020 USA election season with the Ivanaka Trump once grew a pimple somewhere, seen by someone at sometime loves to squeeze serious news

Would love to have this dude testify

Release the tapes!

This is what happens when reporters are more interested in being friends with the politicians they cover and hob nobbing with the rich and powerful. They are blinded by their own thoughts of being powerful themselves. They don't realize they are stooges.

'Attorneys for Steele added that the FBI never asked Steele to not disclose information to the media and that Fusion GPS retained ownership and copyright of all of Steele's material, and that the FBI had 'no control over what Fusion or Orbis did with those reports.''

BS

I would love for ABC news to apologize for the 3 years it has been complicitly promoting this very biased one sided view for the sake of your party. When does it stop? Until it completely ruins your reputation and credibility? Will it be worth it?

Seems like Steele has been refuted in his entirety so he can go choke on the cover page of his false fantasy dossier

Yes, Steele would like to point out key errors and misstatements on that pile of dog shit he produced, the Democrats and media ran with for 3 years.

This should be in prison, but go ahead, try to save your asses. Should b fun to watch! 😄

I wonder if Steele developed his dossier with the help of his BFF Ivanka

😂😂😂😂😂

Ding.. Popcorn time

Steele was a Hillary supporter & was paid for his non-factual 'dossier' by her & the DNC. And, the IG could only find 'several serious errors & misstatements' in their conclusion But that still wasn't enough? Talk about 'miscarriage of justice'....;this is it!

If this is the case then certainly he must be called in to congress to clarify right!!

Whoa! The bad guy said he didn’t do anything wrong? STOP THE PRESS!! We got a hot new lead fellas! This is groundbreaking behavior

I trust Steele more than I do Barr.

The FBI wiretapping a political campaign because of a report provided by the opponents of that campaign. This is wrong and everyone knows it. The wiretapping was done under false pretense and therefore illegal. This is a coup.

Horowitz gets no love

So now you have a seditious liar calling DOJ liars 😂

Of course he does. He is worried about the report being used in a civil suit to sue his foreign election meddling ass!

Trump pissing on prostitutes is the least surprising thing about him

This man should be indicted and brought up on charges for making false charges and statements.

What a credible source. As a lawyer, I wouldn't go within two blocks of a courthouse relying on this guy. Why is he even newsworthy?

serial liar

Liberals will believe the foreign boy

Ivanka was having a relationship with a known spy. Guess there will need to be a big investigation of Mrs. Kushner, huh?

You’re listening to STEELE? Please, you guys have no credibility

Ok guy!
