Lawyers for the Democratic National Committee claimed in court filings this week that the Steele dossier’s statements regarding Trump campaign aide Carter Page were “substantially true,” a defense that is at odds with the findings of the Justice Department’s inspector general.
“Here, the ‘gist’ of the complained-of statements — that Page coordinated with Russian government contacts as an adviser to the Trump campaign — aligns with Page’s own description of his conduct,” the DNC lawyers asserted in a court filing on Monday.
The filing was the DNC’s first in response to a defamation lawsuit that Page filed on Jan. 30 accusing the DNC and two lawyers

It's great when the Left lies in court. We then have documented proof that they are liars. Of course, the only time the Left is "guilty" is when one of them is sitting in a jail cell for a mandatory sentence. Even then they will try to argue the point.
As a contrast, Republicans are deemed "guilty" just because they woke up in the morning; sometimes even when they don't.
The amazing thing is, the Left continually gets away with it and the lies get bigger and bigger.

The dossier is emotionally true for them, the only kind of truth they are interested in.

Bingo, #4! The truth is not in the democrat party. It is always about feelings. Nevertheless, it seems to work for them. We must fix our broken justice system or the American people will lose all trust in the ability for justice to be served in this country. This is one of the cases that is pivotal. Democrats will want to obfuscate and delay, but that tactic will not work this time. Americans are fed up with this rotten two-tiered system.

Undoubtedly the DNC argument at least implies that Steele was a reliable man would could be counted on for gathering and assembling truthful, factual intel, and that they relied on him to have vetted his product, of which they were a duped consumer if this proves to be false.

All they need to do is produce Steele to testify. . . oh wait, he has already ducked that.

FTA: ''The FBI relied heavily on Steele’s information to obtain four warrants to conduct electronic surveillance on Page.''
It seems that the FBI did more than just rely on Steele's information, they helped get it developed and into the system.

Republicans are the ones to heap scorn upon. For instance. Graham is a certified liar. Gowdy, Chaffetz, Numes and others have no guts or will to pursue this hoax any further. Same with Barr and all the scummy lawyers.

What a proven load of donkey manure....from these donkeys. They are lying and they know it, and nothing in that pile of garbage was true.

The initial court ruling on this case that is so politically based will depend on if the case is assigned to a Clinton or Obama nominated Judge or not. That is bound to be self-evident.

I think it is time for one of the great memes of 'I'm sorry, did I roll my eyes too loudly for you' to be posted. I have learned to stop rolling my eyes, for I am afraid with all the outlandish nonsense passing for news right now, my eyes would be stuck that way.
The Dossier has already been proven as a fabricated lie DNC. Too bad it is still hanging from your back pockets where it refuses to go away.

The DNC is as innocent as Harvey Weinstein.
And Billy Jeff was never on Jeffery Epstein's plane either! So there.

Vladimir Lenin is alive and well in the Democratic Party. They are so used to getting away with their lies, they don't even bother to try a cover-up.
