NextImg:DOJ Declined To Pursue Charges Against Russia Collusion-Hoaxer

A newly declassified analysis reveals that the FBI and Department of Justice (DOJ) were aware of allegations that Russia-collusion hoaxer Nellie Ohr lied to Congress regarding her role in the infamous Crossfire Hurricane investigation but chose not to pursue charges.

According to the declassified 2019 analysis by the FBI, Ohr — who was working for Fusion GPS– allegedly lied to Congress on multiple occasions regarding her work attempting to link then-candidate Donald Trump and Russia. Fusion GPS was the opposition firm hired by Hillary Clinton’s campaign to dig up non-existent dirt on Trump. Fusion GPS hired ex-British spy Christopher Steele and eventually compiled what became known as the Steele Dossier. The dossier became the basis for the Russia collusion hoax.

Ohr’s husband, Bruce, was an Associate Deputy Attorney General at the DOJ at the time of Ohr’s employment with Fusion GPS.

Ohr and her husband testified before the House Committee on the Judiciary and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform in 2018 as part of the committee’s investigation into the Russia collusion hoax.

Then-Rep. Mark Meadows of North Carolina filed a criminal referral with the DOJ alleging that Ohr knowingly lied to Congress during her testimony.

According to the newly declassified report, Ohr testified that she “would not have any knowledge of what [was] going on in an ongoing investigation” at the DOJ nor would she have any “knowledge of the Department of Justice’s investigation on Russia.” But “emails reveal [Ohr] shared her research with” DOJ prosecutors and that she was tracking “corruption developments in Russia and Ukraine.”

Ohr also “provided a thumb drive containing all her Fusion GPS research to [her husband] so that he might give it to the FBI.” As previously reported by The Federalist’s Margot Cleveland, Bruce testified that “after the FBI launched an investigation into the Trump campaign, his wife handed him a flash drive consisting of the Trump-Russia research she had compiled for Fusion GPS. Bruce passed Nellie’s opposition-funded research on to the FBI.”

It was further revealed that Ohr deleted emails with DOJ prosecutors, which the report argues is “evidence of deception/concealment as potential indicia of knowledge of ongoing investigations.”

The report further claims that Ohr, in contradiction to her congressional testimony, “disseminated Fusion GPS research to DOJ prosecutors beyond those identified in her testimony.”

The “subject matter researched by Nellie Ohr in furtherance of her Fusion GPS position” was “found in a Fusion GPS document provided to the FBI with the intent of predicating investigative activity,” the analysis states.

Ohr also testified that, according to the analysis, “she did not discuss her Fusion GPS research before fall 2016” except with her husband, Christopher Steele, and an employee of Steele.

“Ohr’s emails, however, reveal that she frequently forwarded open-source research on Russian organized crime figures, Trump, [Paul] Manafort and developments in Ukraine with implications for the Trump campaign,” the analysis states. Ohr was allegedly in communications with three DOJ prosecutors as well.

The report further alleges that Ohr, “in direct contradiction to her testimony … took six ‘ham radio’ classes and an exam during the time she was employed by Fusion GPS.” Ham radios allow communication internationally without a cell signal. According to a press release from Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, records show Ohr’s “entire ham radio training occurred between March to May 2016, while working at Fusion GPS” despite claiming her training occurred prior to her employment at Fusion GPS.

Despite Ohr’s alleged lies, the DOJ and FBI chose not to pursue charges against Ohr.

“The FBI and DOJ’s failure to hold Ohr accountable for appearing to commit multiple felonies and its obstructive conduct against agents that sought additional information reveals the agencies’ deeply disturbing political bias,” Grassley said in a statement. “Ohr never suffered consequences for advancing the phony Trump-Russia narrative and attempting to cover up her involvement in the hoax … The DOJ’s inaction on Nellie Ohr’s criminal referral – despite the obviously incriminating evidence provided in the FBI’s own analysis – undermines public trust in the rule of law.”

The analysis was released after Grassley requested FBI Director Kash Patel to declassify the “mostly unclassified” analysis.
