Top U.S. senators are pressing the FBI’s director and the attorney general for answers on how the government paid the primary source for the anti-Donald Trump dossier, which has been proven to be full of baseless information.

Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), the ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), the top Republican on the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, said they want more information following the recent disclosure that the FBI paid Igor Danchenko.
