Republican Rep. Steube invoked a common refrain from defenders of the President: that the dossier provided "the very basis of the investigation
CONCLUSION
The dossier was not the basis for the FBI's investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
On Saturday, Russian officials claimed that Ukraine had, in fact, been demilitarized—in line with the goals of Moscow's invasion of the Eastern European nation—despite clear and significant evidence to the contrary.

Several attorneys said the former president admitted to his alleged crimes.
"Mr. Trump's lawyers had to be cringing during that interview, and DOJ lawyers were no doubt taking notes," Moss told Newsweek. "Mr. Trump confessed to personally going through the boxes and had no explanation for why classified records from those boxes wound up in his personal desk. He placed himself at the scene of the retention and obstruction. This is the stuff of nightmares for a defense attorney."
“He seemed to be saying the documents were really his and he didn’t give them back when he was requested to do so, and when they were subpoenaed because he wasn’t ready to because he hadn’t sorted them or whatever from his golf shirts,” Hume said. “It was not altogether clear what he was saying, but he seemed to believe that the documents were his, that he had declassified them and therefore he could do whatever he wanted with them.”
Former President Donald Trump on Monday defended his retention of classified materials after leaving the White House, telling Fox News he did not have time to go through the boxes filled with the documents.
“I’m no great fan of Fox,” Trump said later in the interview.
“You’re sitting here…” Baier said.
“Well, you gotta get your word out somehow, right?” Trump responded.

But this is not correct. The divine Wisdom did indeed decree that the spiritual substance, which by its nature is not a free agent, should dwell in the human body in order that it may become a free agent in the body, because this is no doubt a valuable quality in it. So much so that, as we are told by the Rabbis, the angels made a mistake and when God created man, they wanted to worship him … This was because he was a free agent and they were not. Nevertheless, why should a soul which has already functioned in a human body and has become a free agent, return to the body again? And why should the seminal drop have the capacity to receive a soul which has already functioned in a body rather than to receive a soul which has not functioned in a body and is not a free agent? A still less likely view is that of those who say that human souls are transmigrated into bodies of animals. God knows.
Sefer Chasidim (469) There is a demon called dragon, in Greek. If he is struck with a sword, he will not be harmed, But its offspring can be harmed. There was once someone who was born from a princess and a dragon. It is said that this dragon that impregnated the princess was only afraid of a dragon who was the son of a princess.It was in prison . The King said to it, “I will free you from prison. Come out “He went and took the sword of his father and went under the bed of the queen. Immediately the demon smelled it and said, "I smell from the one I fear," he said, "Nonetheless, I will not be stopped from having relations with the queen. " The one that was under the bed came out and waited. After the demon finished he got off the bed and he was struck with the sword and was wounded ...
