During his questioning, Comey reiterated that the dossier did not trigger the investigation into the Trump campaign's supposed ties to Russia. The former director said that it was a meeting between former Trump campaign foreign policy aide George Papadopoulos and London-based professor Joseph Mifsud in March 2016 that kickstarted the investigation. Mifsud allegedly told Papadopoulos of the emails stolen from Clinton's Campaign by 'Russian hackers.'
"It was weeks or months later that the so-called Steele dossier came to our attention," Comey said.
Comey previously dismissed accusations that the bureau did not follow procedure in obtaining a warrant on Page as "nonsense".
"The notion that FISA was abused here is nonsense," Comey said while leaving the Capitol Hill on Friday following his testimony.
