Gowdy: ‘Unbelievable’ That DOJ’s Bruce Ohr ‘Would Insert Himself Into an Ongoing Investigation’
Members of the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees will return to Washington on August 28 to hear what Bruce Ohr, a high-ranking Justice Department official, has to say about his connection to the Steele dossier, which apparently launched the Trump-Russia investigation.
Ohr’s wife Nellie worked for Fusion GPS, which hired Christopher Steele to produce the opposition research on Donald Trump. The Clinton Campaign and the Democrat National Committee paid for the Steele dossier through a law firm.
The FBI used Steele as a source for a while. And recently revealed documentsindicate that Bruce Ohr was funneling information from Christopher Steele to the FBI, even after the FBI fired Steele as a source. It appears that Ohr served as a go-between at a time when the FBI had ended its association with Steele.
Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) told Fox News Monday night that he used to work at the Justice Department “doing what Bruce Ohr does now.” Both men are or were prosecutors.
