York on FISA Memo: Most Explosive Allegation Is the Obama Admin Used the Trump Dossier to Get a Warrant to Spy on American

‘I think what you heard from Representative Gowdy a second ago is that it probably covers a lot more than just this warrant issue’

EXCERPT:

HEMMER: "Also today watch the clock -- 5:00. In fact, the House Intelligence Committee meeting today and they may likely vote on whether or not to release an Obama surveillance memo that allegedly reveals misconduct by the FBI. Congressman Trey Gowdy laying out the case for making it public on Sunday with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday."

GOWDY: "If you think your viewers want to know whether or not the dossier was used in court proceedings, whether or not it was vetted before it was used, whether or not it's ever been vetted -- if you are interested in who paid for the dossier, if you are interested in Christopher Steele's relationship with Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee, then you will want the memo to come out."

HEMMER: "Byron York, chief political correspondent of 'Washington Examiner' has been reporting on this for weeks. Byron, good to have you back. Good morning to you."
YORK: "Good morning, Bill."
HEMMER: "Five o'clock today, what’s in it?"
YORK: "Well it could happen. Actually, representative Gowdy gave a little bit of a roadmap there to what we think is in it. Remember, it is classified and -- and to my knowledge no one outside this group has read it. But the -- the most explosive allegation appears to be the allegation that the Obama Justice Department used the dossier, the unverified dossier, which was really an op-ed research document, used it to present to a court to win permission to spy on an American. So that’s what the most explosive allegation is said to be."
