THE LEAD STORY: A controversial dossier containing salacious allegations about President Donald Trump and his possible connections to Russia was funded by Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee, a source confirmed to Fox News ... Fusion GPS, the firm behind the dossier, was retained in April 2016 by Marc E. Elias, an attorney representing the DNC and the Clinton campaign, the Washington Post reported. The firm then reportedly hired former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele to write the infamous dossier. Steele had ties both to the U.S. intelligence community and the FBI. Prior to the firm being retained by Elias and his law firm, Perkins Coie, Fusion GPS’s research had been subsidized by an unidentified Republican during the GOP primary. However the Clinton campaign and the DNC saw the research through, funding the firm through the end of October 2016, just days before Trump defeated Clinton in the general election.

THE REAL RUSSIA SCANDAL? In addition to former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort, close Clinton allies John and Tony Podesta have become central figures in special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia probe, a source told Fox News' Tucker Carlson ... The source, a former employee of the Podesta Group who has been interviewed by Mueller's investigators, says Manafort worked extensively with the Podestas as far back as 2011 on behalf of Russian government and business interests. Russia sought influence in Capitol Hill and focused on the Podesta Group because of Tony and John's close ties to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Carlson reported. The source, Carlson said, alleged that Tony Podesta and a member of the Clinton Foundation had a meeting about how to assist Uranium One, the Russia-owned company that controls 20 percent of U.S. uranium production capacity and whose board members gave more than $100 million to the Clinton Foundation.
