While most of the attention on SpyGate has been focused on corruption at the highest levels within DOJ/FBI, less scrutiny has been given to the State Department’s and John Kerry’s likely involvement:
Questions have been raised about Victoria Nuland, a senior official in John Kerry’s State Department.
In their book, Russian Roulette: The Inside Story of Putin’s War on America and the Election of Donald Trump, authors and reporters Michael Isikoff and David Corn write that Nuland gave the green light for the FBI to first meet with Steele regarding his dossier’s claims. It was at that meeting that Steele initially reported his dossier charges to the FBI, the book relates.
Other State officials reportedly interfaced with both Steele and Clinton confidante Sidney Blumenthal regarding the dossier.

The FVEY network was needed to plant the fabricated information in the dossier and give the information an air of legitimacy and legality. Basic logic would indicate that such involvement would require diplomatic contacts with the highest levels of the foreign governments involved in providing the information. We now know that the foreign involvement was largely from the UK because of Christopher Steele (MI-6/SIS). But such incendary information would almost have to include the highest care and political involvement from the US and UK Governments. UK’s Prime Minister at the time was David Cameron. Such consultation and coordination would necessarily involve the State Department and John Kerry.
Furthermore, remember the Russian spy, Natalia Veselnitskaya, who entered the country to set up Don Jr in the Trump Tower meeting? It seems that the visa for her to enter the country was approved by the State Department not the DOJ, which was the usual method. Therefore, it’s likely that John Kerry was involved in the setup from the get-go.

It’s not the first time Kerry got directly involved in approving a visa as a political favor:
According to the indictment, Netanyahu then called Kerry, and raised the issue again in a face-to-face meeting with the secretary of state. Milchen's visa was later extended for 10 years.
