According to information at the link:
The FBI conducted a counterintelligence investigation into Donald Trump’s campaign based on hearsay from Australian diplomat Alexander Downer (who helped to arrange a $25 million Australian government donation to the Clinton Foundation, and who was allegedly prompted to get that hearsay by Brennan's CIA), and on the opposition research dossier prepared in part by foreign nationals on behalf of the Clinton Campaign & DNC.
How did the FBI get the DNC/HRC opposition research so they could use it to generate warrants to surveil the Trump Campaign? Turns out that HRC/DNC hired Fusion GPS, which had hired Steele (foreign agent), and which also employed Nellie Ohr, wife of DOJ Asst. Deputy AG Bruce Ohr. Nellie Ohr fed the foreign opposition research to her husband, who in turn fed it to Andrew McCabe, who in turn fed it to the FISA Court. Already working for the Clinton campaign, Steele began also working for the FBI directly as a confidential informant. When he was fired in Nov. 2016 for leaking to the press, his information continued to be provided to the FBI via Nellie and Bruce Ohr in at least 12 separate meetings with FBI agents, providing at least 2 oppo research files. "In other words, Ohr transitioned from being a DOJ supervisor to a backdoor source for the FBI to receive information from a terminated source [& DNC operative]. ... So, Bruce Ohr became a conduit of information not only for intelligence from Clinton’s British opposition-researcher but also from his wife’s curation of evidence from a Clinton foreign ally and Manafort enemy inside Ukraine [more about that at the link]. Talk about foreign influence in a U.S. election!" Interestingly, Ohr's bonus doubled during this time.
I guess we have to decide if we are ok with one campaign (the Hillary campaign) colluding with foreign nationals to undermine a U.S. election, and directly using US government agencies to undermine an opposing campaign, and to create an insurance policy to undermine/remove an elected president.
It seems like everyone would be unanimous against this, and yet, some here will defend this...or they will attack it as fake news. Maybe it is. We shall see. I will enjoy watching to see if the swamp will be drained. But, many political minded people do not want the swamp drained.

due to his work on the FIFA fraud investigation.
Second, Steele was a private citizen and not an agent or in the employ of any foreign power, let alone a hostile one.
Third, Carter Page was the person surveilled, not the campaign. Page was a known Russia asset predating the investigation.
Fourth, the warrant was approved and renewed by 4 different federal judges.
Fifth, the assistance provided by Steele was to investigate Orange contacts with a hostile foreign power which turned out to have been acting illegally to interfere and swing the election to Orange. None of that was made up.
Sixth, the Orange campaign colluded with and gleefully accepted illegal help from agents of a hostile foreign power which had an avowed aim to interfere in our election to help elect Orange. Hills got and accepted no such help.
Seventh, none of the Russian contact or Russian interference info developed by Steele was used to influence the 2016 election. No one even knew who Steele was until after the election. None of this was used to help HRC like the stolen emails were used to help Orange.
By the way the beer at ECB is very good and the pub grub is decent.
...if he was alive.
In my defense, I try not to read Russian propaganda.

they slowly went from denying that it happened, to spinning what happened, to now saying “So what?...We must remove the guy who beat us at any cost”.
Liberals only care about their agenda, not about the means used to achieve it. And as we’ve seen over and over again, they are the ultimate hypocrites.
The only solution is to play by their rules with no hesitation.
