You’d think he’d be proud. I’ve been assured by the left and the NeverTrump Rump (but I repeat myself) the sun beams out of this guy’s immaculate asshole.
* Text messages between dossier author Christopher Steele and Department of Justice official Bruce Ohr have been released.
* Steele said in one message that he was “concerned” by a Senate Committee on the Judiciary request for records about the dossier.
* Ohr and Steele met in Washington, D.C., before the FBI opened its investigation of the Trump campaign.
Christopher Steele expressed concern last year at a Senate committee’s request for information about the former British spy’s anti-Trump dossier, according to text messages recently provided to Congress.
“Would it be possible to speak later today please? We’re very concerned by the Grassley letter and it’s possible implications for us, our operations and our sources. We need some reassurances,” Steele wrote in a March 7, 2017 text message to Bruce Ohr, who then served as deputy assistant attorney general.
…
Grassley’s letter also posed a question that hit directly at the relationship between Steele and Ohr.
Were any other government officials outside of the FBI involved in discussing or authorizing the agreement with Mr. Steele, including anyone from the Department of Justice or the Obama White House? If so, please explain who was involved and provide all related records,” Grassley wrote.
Remember, the FBI had fake-fired Christopher Steele in November, 2016 by breaching, allegedly, the requirements that he not speak to the press about his alleged research. He was also told that he was to no longer gather alleged information for the FBI.
The reason I say “alleged” so many times is that now I’m not sure the FBI really fired him. Steele continued working with the DOJ after his firing for cause/for his lack of integrity, in a system probably set up by Sally Yates whereby Bruce Ohr would act as a cut-out to pass Steele’s continuing bullshit to the Obama Administration. Despite his alleged “firing” and bar from continuing his operation on behalf of the government.
I begin to wonder if Steele actually talked to reporters with the tacit or explicit approval of Obama Administration officials, and then was only fake-fired because they knew what he’d done violated government policy, and that even though they’d authorized that violation of government policy, they would have to fake-fire him to make it look, as they say, “by the book.”
Also remember: The Hillary camp was desperate to get this bullshit narrative talked about in the press, and so of course would want Steele to try to do just that; one can imagine Obama Administration partisans joining her in such a project.
Christopher Steele is a foreigner.
So a foreigner is concerned that someone may question his actions to influence an election?
His actions that were at the behest of the Hillary campaign?
Isn’t this the very definition of collusion?
I bet he is more concerned today after the latest info-dump showed us that Ohr was worried, too.
There may be a race for which of these can throw themselves under the bus 1st, so as to get the slap-on-the-wrist, or even immunity.
Well, see all this lying, buying information, leaking, manipulating and suppression of evidence is necessary because Trump’s collusion is so obvious. Don’t you get it?
