Carter is on hannity.
She says hannity confirmed this too, and hannity said his sources were two congressional members and one DOJ member.
Her sources were similar.
She is saying the odssier was definitely used in part to get a dossier, and what is especially troubling is that senior people like Comey admitted that the only part of tyhe dossier they could confirm was that page went to moscow.
So if her reporting is accurate, the intel community under Obama used a document that was paid for by the DNC and Hillary and sourced from kremlin officials that their senior members admit at the time was largely unsubstantiated as part of the reason to spy on Trumps team.
If true, its devastating to the FBI, the DNC and Hillary, and Obama.
FISA warrant investigations can’t be opened “solely on the basis of First Amendment activities,” so mere fraternization, even with sketchy people, wouldn’t be enough.

You are woefully uninformed.
How about you show where Steele admitted the dossier is not true. That crap stinks to high heaven son. There is not a shred of truth in your statement.
But ask me to prove what I say huh? What a joke.

Well, gee, I guess I thought people might want to know what was said. Hannity surely doesn't want you to read this very damning transcript.
You act like I tried to bring up baseball.
I guess I should start a thread with the transcript.

What court documents ? Steele has not been in any court regarding this.
With only days until Donald Trump takes office, the Obama administration on Thursday announced new rules that will let the NSA share vast amounts of private data gathered without warrant, court orders or congressional authorization with 16 other agencies, including the FBI, the Drug Enforcement Agency, and the Department of Homeland Security.

Im referring to somehow, the information obtained via the FISA warrants made it into the chatter among diplomats. Potentially, one source would be the FBI sharing information with Steele about Trump.
Since its not yet investigated how the information was leaked, the one thing we know for sure is that the FBI looks pretty likely, since they were sharing information with Steele, and COmey obviously has loose lips.
In the Obama administration’s last days, some White House officials scrambled to spread information about Russian efforts to undermine the presidential election — and about possible contacts between associates of President-elect Donald J. Trump and Russians — across the government. Former American officials say they had two aims: to ensure that such meddling isn’t duplicated in future American or European elections, and to leave a clear trail of intelligence for government investigators.
...
At intelligence agencies, there was a push to process as much raw intelligence as possible into analyses, and to keep the reports at a relatively low classification level to ensure as wide a readership as possible across the government — and, in some cases, among European allies. This allowed the upload of as much intelligence as possible to Intellipedia, a secret wiki used by American analysts to share information.

I was looking for that story, and it seems Google has buried it within the 10 or so search terms I used.

What will the other side say when this is done to them?
I think Trump will go that far to prove the case
against Hillary, Comey, Strozk, Lynch etc.
And he would be right to do it.
They are throwing up all the red flags
of guilt. In he mean time, Rand Paul
will be a loud voice against the lawless
surveillance.

So she was potentially part of a grander conspiracy.
Sure. To use my earlier example, it's also possible aliens are involved in this conspiracy.
At what point is it reasonable to spend time, money and resources to investigate conspiracies that are based on very loose connections or probabilities?

Yeah, this article refers the the same thing I linked to without actually mentioning the EO in question. It's the same activity covered in a slightly different way.

At what point? When the DNC, that gives money to it's presidential candidate, also contracts oppo research from a firm that then receives information from a foreign agent whom receives it from foreign government agents. When that research leads to unmasking, FISA warrants, and opens up a broad investigation into the the opposing candidate.
And from some accounts, Hillary was all but queen of the DNC at the time. If those accounts are to be believed, Hillary =/= DNC in 2016, Which means she, through the DNC, paid for the info that lead to the above.
If that's not grounds to investigate, I don't know what is.

Ground to investigate something that is not illegal?
That does not make sense.
