A key source for the anti-Trump dossier paid for by Hillary Clinton’s campaign has asked a federal judge to throw out charges filed against him after he allegedly lied to federal agents about where he got the information he fed the dossier’s author.

Igor Danchenko, a Russian national, says that the five false statement charges were improperly filed because he made statements that were “literally true.”
