"At one point Durham asked Auten why the DOJ opened its Russia probe in the summer of 2016.

But his answer cut against Trump's repeated claim that the probe was founded on the dirty dossier.

Instead, his answer pointed to the origin of the probe, which has been repeatedly reported: A boozy encounter in a hotel bar in May 2016 between foreign Trump campaign advisor George Papadopoulos and an Australian diplomat, after the aide said the Kremlin had dirt on Hillary Clinton. The diplomat provided the information to the U.S."

That's from the bottom of the Daily Mail piece livefree_ordie butchered and didn't give us his link for.

Nothing we didn't already know, but an important truth misguided misinformation-mongers as livefree_ordie like to deny.

See this May, 2019 post again to see how others have also milked the false claim that the dossier initiated the Russia probe ..

benzedealer2/others, No more of the dossier started it lie.
