[Breitbart] Morell charged the dossier "doesn’t take you anywhere, I don’t think."
"I had two questions when I first read it. One was, how did Chris talk to these sources? I have subsequently learned that he used intermediaries."
Morell continued:
And then I asked myself, why did these guys provide this information, what was their motivation? And I subsequently learned that he paid them. That the intermediaries paid the sources and the intermediaries got the money from Chris. And that kind of worries me a little bit because if you’re paying somebody, particularly former FSB [Russian intelligence] officers, they are going to tell you truth and innuendo and rumor, and they’re going to call you up and say, "Hey, let’s have another meeting, I have more information for you," because they want to get paid some more.
I think you’ve got to take all that into consideration when you consider the dossier.
