So The Whole Russia Trump Probe Was A Phony?

I heard Rush Limbaugh today explain the genesis of the Russia-Trump mess and how it started.  Remember back six months ago?  At that point, the common story was that the secret Trump Dossier was and it's information was behind the Russia Trump investigation.  Then suddenly we learned that the dossier had been paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democrat National Committee.  Nevertheless, the dossier was the key evidence used by the FBI and DOJ four times to get approval for a FISA warrant which allowed surveillance of the Trump campaign associates.  The FBI and DOJ never told the FISA court that the dossier was unverified. In fact, the dossier could not be proven after several attempts to do so.  It was phony evidence paid for by the Democrats but used to justify having the government spy on the Republicans under Trump.

After the Trump Dossier blew up in their faces, the Democrats said, almost in unison, "Wait.  The investigation began when Georges Papadopoulos got drunk and told an Australian ambassador about the Russians having Hillary's emails."  It was an alternative cause.  But now that is no longer the case.  According to the latest, the FBI chose Papadopoulos as their target and set him up.  An FBI agent told Papadopoulos in passing that he had heard that the Russians had Hillary's emails.  Then the spy that the FBI enmeshed in the Trump campaign told Papadopouls a second time about the Russians having the emails.  Even the Australian diplomat in the story turns out to be a major contributor to the Clinton Foundation who first bumped into Papadopouls (on purpose) at a London pub.  Then he got Papadapoulos drunk and tried to goad him into talking about what he had heard of Russians having Hillary's emails.  In other words, the FBI used Papadapoulos.  First they fed him information that the Russians had the emails; then they got him to discuss it while he was drunk so that the Australians could report the conversation.

If this is all true, it is a new low for the FBI.  It means that the FBI, the Obama administration and the Democrats worked together to try to set up Donald Trump.  Indeed, this may the "insurance policy" about which Peter Strzok texted his mistress Lisa Page in that now famous text message.
