“A high-ranking official who testified that without that ‘dodgy dossier,’ the unverified dossier compiled by Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele, there would have been no hope for a FISA memo [sic],” John Roberts reported, referring to authorization for surveillance on the Trump campaign. “That official, according to the memo, who provided that testimony, was none other than the deputy director of the FBI, the former deputy director of the FBI Andrew McCabe, who resigned suddenly on Monday after the FBI director Christopher Wray had read the memo on Sunday night.”
The FISA memo has been made public.
Analysis on the memo from political experts:
Excerpt from @DevinNunes Memo: "Steele admitted to Ohr his feelings against then Candidate Trump, in September of 2016, when Steele told Ohr, that he Steele 'was desperate that Donald Trump not get elected and was passionate about him not being president.'" #MemoDay pic.twitter.com/7xMdBpLCDm

And as predicted, we are also watching full on spin for why a FISA warrant isn't a big deal, the use of the dossier isn't a big deal, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. etc. If it weren't so disingenuous, the predictability might be funny. #MemoDay

FBI takes "salacious and unverified" dossier to secret court to get secret warrant to spy on a fellow American, and FBI doesn't tell the court that the DNC/Clinton campaign paid for that dossier.
And they did that FOUR times.

FISA warrant used for surveillance on former Trump campaign adviser Carter Page:
House Intel memo: FBI received warrant on Carter Page in October 2016. McCabe attested the dossier was needed to obtain warrant. FBI also used a news story ginned up by FusionSteele as further "evidence"–though came from same source.

McCabe confirmed Steele dossier crucial to FISA warrant:
"Andrew McCabe confirmed that no FISA warrant would have been sought from the FISA Court without the Steele dossier information." #MemoDay
