What Were Bruce And Nellie Ohr Sending To The FBI?
Judicial Watch has a doc dump today. We've all seen that Bruce Ohr delivered some thumb drives with Nellie's "research" on it to the FBI. What was on those thumb drives?

This list of individuals allegedly “linked to Trump” include: a Russian involved in a “gangland killing;” an Uzbek mafia don; a former KGB officer suspected in the murder of Paul Tatum; a Russian who reportedly “buys up banks and pumps them dry”; a Russian money launderer for Sergei Magnitsky; a Turk accused of shipping oil for ISIS; a couple who lent their name to the Trump Institute, promoting its “get-rich-quick schemes”; a man who poured him a drink; and others.
On December 5, 2016, Bruce Ohr emails himself a document titled “Manafort Chronology ,” another Nellie Ohr-Fusion GPS document, which details Paul Manafort’s travel and interactions with Russians and other officials.
This was absurd oppo research. Read the bolded portion again. Has anything, anything , come of any of that nonsense?
This is a remarkable view of how completely politicized the FBI/DoJ had become under Obama.
We also have to ask, Are we seeing in this an early stage of the push either 1) to prevent Trump's inauguration, or 2) for a Special Counsel ASAP? Perhaps slightly inchoate at this point, but ...
