Seems as if CNN colluded with the US government to release the “pee” or Trump-Russia dossier to the public. Why the government would choose low rated CNN rather than a network like MSNBC which at least gets better ratings than CNN is unknown.
| McCabe e-mail: FBI briefing a trigger for CNN to release ‘pee’ dossier |

While he served as the FBI’s deputy director, Andrew McCabe penned emails in which he revealed his awareness of plans by CNN to break a major story regarding salacious claims made in the infamous anti-Trump dossier.
McCabe wrote the email two days before CNN on January 10, 2017 was first to report leaked information that the controversial contents of the dossier were presented during classified briefings one week earlier to President Barack Obama and President-elect Donald Trump. Prior to CNN’s report leaking the briefings, which was picked up by news agencies worldwide, the contents of the dossier had been circulating among news media outlets, but the sensational claims were largely considered too risky to publish.Perhaps tellingly, McCabe noted in his January 8, 2017 email that the “trigger” for CNN’s forthcoming dossier story of which he had insider knowledge was the official separate classified briefings to Obama and Trump on the unsubstantiated claims.
“CNN is close to going forward with the sensitive story,” McCabe wrote in the email to senior FBI leadership. “The trigger for them is they know the material was discussed in the brief and presented in an attachment.” The subject line for that email was “Flood is Coming.”
Besides showing insider knowledge of the CNN story released two days later, McCabe’s email adds fuel to the argument that the leak of the classified briefings themselves gave the news media the opening to report on the dossier’s existence as well as allude to some of the document’s most outrageous claims.
