A top Democrat said the FBI’s use of the unverified Steele dossier, which may contain foreign disinformation, in its investigations is different from President Trump’s willingness to hear opposition research from foreign sources.

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, told the Washington Examiner it was wrong for supporters of the president to respond to Trump saying last week that “there’s nothing wrong with listening” to information from a foreign government during a campaign by comparing that with the Democratic National Committee-funded Fusion GPS hiring British ex-spy Christopher Steele to compile a dossier using Kremlin sources during the presidential election.
