Steele Given False Russian 'Information' By Clinton Campaign Lawyer The Conservative Daily Post:  In bombshell testimony, debunked dossier author Christopher Steele explained that Clinton campaign lawyer (and ex-DOJ official), provided him with ‘information’ in 2016 about an alleged secret communication channel between the Trump organization and a Russian bank. Of course, all of that was a big giant lie. And interestingly enough, no media outlet seems to want to discuss the fact that all the interference in the presidential election was apparently created, generated and carried out by Hillary Clinton’s team of vipers, many people argue. The Daily Caller reported: That now-debunked tip, from Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussmann, set off a chain of events that led to Steele publishing a Sept. 14, 2016 memo accusing the founders of the bank, Alfa Bank, of having “illicit” ties to Vladimir Putin, according to a court transcript obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. A week after Steele wrote that memo, he had another meeting with Sussmann’s colleague, Marc Elias, according to the transcript. Steele disclosed the previously unreported meetings with Sussmann and Elias during testimony in a defamation lawsuit filed against him by the Alfa Bank founders, the transcript shows. Steele’s testimony about Sussmann and Elias provides insight into how deeply involved the two lawyers were in the Trump investigation, and suggests they helped shape Steele’s investigation into possible Russian interference in the 2016 election. Perkins Coie, Sussmann and Elias did not respond to requests for comment for this story. Elias, who served as general counsel for the Clinton campaign, hired Fusion GPS in April 2016 to investigate Donald Trump. Fusion GPS in turn picked Steele, a former MI6 officer, in June 2016 to investigate Trump’s possible ties to Russia. Steele would go on to produce 17 memos alleging that the Russian government had blackmail material on Trump, and that members of his campaign were conspiring with the Kremlin to influence the 2016 election. Many of Steele’s most explosive allegations have been debunked in the 40 months since BuzzFeed News published the dossier. A Justice Department inspector general’s report said that Steele’s primary source of information disputed many of the allegations in the dossier. The IG report also said that the FBI and U.S. intelligence community received evidence In bombshell testimony, debunked dossier author Christopher Steele explained that Clinton campaign lawyer (and ex-DOJ official), provided him with ‘information’ in 2016 about an alleged secret communication channel between the Trump organization and a Russian bank.
