Remember this bombshell from last December?

Luke Rosiak at The Daily Caller is reporting Wednesday night that Justice Department official Bruce Ohr did not disclose on ethics forms that his wife, Nellie Ohr, was being paid by opposition research firm Fusion GPS.

Rosiak writes:

Bruce Ohr, the Department of Justice official who brought opposition research on President Donald Trump to the FBI, did not disclose that Fusion GPS, which performed that research at the Democratic National Committee’s behest, was paying his wife, and did not obtain a conflict of interest waiver from his superiors at the Justice Department, documents obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation show.

The omission may explain why Ohr was demoted from his post as associate deputy attorney general after the relationship between Fusion GPS and his wife emerged and Fusion founder Glenn Simpson acknowledged meeting with Ohr. Willfully falsifying government ethics forms can carry a penalty of jail time, if convicted.
