If you think that a judge granted a warrant based purely on allegations in an opposition research document, then you're just on another planet of conspiracy theory nonsense, and I guess you're assuming that everyone is as crooked and ignorant of the law as Trump and his gang.

"The FBI last year used a dossier of allegations of Russian ties to Donald Trump's campaign as part of the justification to win approval to secretly monitor a Trump associate, according to US officials briefed on the investigation.
The dossier has also been cited by FBI Director James Comey in some of his briefings to members of Congress in recent weeks, as one of the sources of information the bureau has used to bolster its investigation, according to US officials briefed on the probe."
Not only was the FBI using the allegations in dossier to obtain FISA warrants, Obama's Intel chiefs were presenting the allegations to Congress and Trump and Obama as legitimate intelligence

"The allegations were presented in a two-page synopsis that was appended to a report on Russian interference in the 2016 election.
The allegations came, in part, from memos compiled by a former British intelligence operative, whose past work US intelligence officials consider credible. The FBI is investigating the credibility and accuracy of these allegations, which are based primarily on information from Russian sources, but has not confirmed many essential details in the memos about Mr. Trump."
The scandal lives on InfoWars, nowhere else..
I challenge you to go back through my post and or threads and find ONE, just one time I linked to Infowars. Go ahead, Ill wait.
It was LEAKED by people outside the FBI, stop making things up.
Liberals do this ALL THE TIME. They're far too arrogant to admit that they're ignorant and uniformed, so they just accuse other people of lying, of " making things up "

" Republican-led House and Senate committees are investigating whether leaders of the Russia counterintelligence investigation had contacts with the news media that resulted in improper leaks, prompted in part by text messages amongst senior FBI officials mentioning specific reporters, news organizations and articles."
In one exchange, FBI counterintelligence agent Peter Strzok and bureau lawyer Lisa Page engaged in a series of texts shortly before Election Day 2016 suggesting they knew in advance about an article in The Wall Street Journal and would need to feign stumbling onto the story so it could be shared with colleagues."
“Article is out, but hidden behind paywall so can’t read it,” Page texted Strzok on Oct. 24, 2016.
“Wsj? Boy that was fast,” Strzok texted back, using the initials of the famed financial newspaper.
“Should I ‘find’ it and tell the team?”
The text messages, which were reviewed by The Hill, show the two FBI agents discussed how they might make it appear they innocently discovered the article, such as through Google News alerts.
“I can get it like I do every other article that hits any Google News alerts, seriously,” Strzok wrote, adding he didn’t want his team hearing about the article
“from someone else.”
