'The Trump investigation did not start with the FISA warrant and Carter Page and even the dossier,' Wallace said.
Fox News host Chris Wallace fact-checked a disputed element of the special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation yesterday, noting that his setting the record straight would “drive some of” the network’s viewers “nuts.”
Later in the discussion, Bill Hemmer aired a clip of Rush Limbaugh talking about the “accountability for the Mueller matter” on Bret Baier’s show. “They began an investigation based on a phony dossier that was created and written by associates of Hillary Clinton,” Limbaugh said. “It was opposition research. This is outrageous what has happened here. There needs to be an investigation into this.
"It started in June and July of 2016 when George Papadopoulos had spoken to a Russian agent and spoke to an Australian diplomat and said he had heard they had information on –– dirt on Hillary Clinton," the host continued. "That’s when the investigation started. So it wasn’t October, it wasn’t September. It was in July and it was George Papadopoulos. Not to say that the FISA warrant was a legitimate basis… for inquiry, but that is not where the investigation started.
The completion of Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and possible collusion between Trump’s campaign team and Kremlin officials was announced a week ago. Although Attorney General William Barr released a four-page summary of Mueller’s findings, demands for the full report to be made public has only continued to ramp up in recent days.
