“He never told us. He still never admitted it. It finally was admitted in a British court where Christopher Steele was being sued,” says Kash Patel.
Former House Speaker Paul Ryan was the first individual to actually receive a copy of the infamous Steele Dossier that kicked off the FBI’s Russia collusion witch hunt against Donald Trump, according to former Trump White House adviser Kash Patel.
Patel joined Steve Bannon’s “War Room” on Saturday to break the explosive news, noting that Ryan tasked him and former Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) with investigating the Russia collusion spin while sitting on a copy of the very dossier that perpetuated it.
“Remember in 2016, let’s rewind the tape. It was Russia collusion, Russia collusion, Russia collusion. And then speaker Paul Ryan enlisted me and Devin Nunes to investigate the Russia collusion. Nobody knew what the Steele dossier was in 2016. They had already gone to the federal court and unlawfully surveilled Donald Trump with it,” Patel explained.

Kash Patel Drops a Bomb — British Court Reveals Paul Ryan Was the First One to Receive a Copy of Steele Dossier Back in 2016 and He Hid This For Years!
Steve Bannon:
Are you telling me and telling this audience in a British court filing that Steele filed under… pic.twitter.com/WhD5jd1ba6— MJTruthUltra (@MJTruthUltra) June 23, 2024
“But what we didn’t find out until after we completed our investigation in 2018 was that the Speaker, Paul Ryan, who charged us with investigating Russiagate was the first guy to ever get a copy of the Steele dossier in 2016. He never told us. He still never admitted it. It finally was admitted in a British court where Christopher Steele was being sued.”
“Just think about it, Steve. We could have asked, where did you get it? Who did you get it from? How was it paid for? All of these secrets could have come out under this man’s very investigation, but he rigged it from the beginning,” he said.
Patel’s remarks come days after Ryan appeared on Fox News to disparage Trump as “unfit for office” and announce he would be writing in a different Republican candidate for president in November.
Patel noted the irony of Ryan criticizing Trump over his character and principles when he was the one who “kneecapped” Trump from the very beginning in defiance of the Republican base who overwhelmingly supported the 45th president.
“So I’m done listening to lectures about the new conservative brand that is Paul Ryan. And anytime he wants to debate me, I’m all in. He charged us with an investigation that he rigged because he didn’t want Donald Trump to succeed,” Patel said.
“He kneecapped him from the beginning. That guy’s talking about not going to the RNC. No one wants him there. He’s so arrogant. He doesn’t understand the simple fact that we put out the truth,” he added.
Trump ripped the former Speaker last week as a “very disloyal person” and a “dog” over his critical remarks on Fox.
“Nobody can ever trust Fox News, and I am one of them, with the weak and ineffective RINO, Paul Ryan, on its Board of Directors,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.
He’s a total lightweight, a failed and pathetic Speaker of the House, and a very disloyal person. Romney was bad, but Paul Ryan made him look worse. As a team, they never had a chance. Rupert and Lachlan, get that dog off your Board – You don’t need him. ALL YOU NEED IS TRUMP. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
