Graham: New Bruce Ohr docs show FISA warrant against ex-Trump campaign aide a 'fraud'
FBI kept using Steele dossier for FISA applications despite documenting ex-spy's bias, documents show
The FBI continued to use British ex-spy Christopher Steele's unverified Trump dossier in multiple Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) court warrant application renewals, even after the bureau formally documented Steele’s anti-Trump bias following the 2016 presidential election, records obtained by Fox News show. The partially redacted documents, first acquired by Judicial Watch, also revealed that top Justice Department official Bruce Ohr maintained contact with Steele for at least six months after Steele was fired by the FBI for unauthorized media contacts in November 2016.

The records further confirm that Ohr knew of Steele's anti-Trump bias before the 2016 election. "This is just the tip of the iceberg," Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., told Fox News' "Hannity" on Thursday.
