Redacted Name Witness Transcript Appears To Be Christopher Steele's FBI Handler Introduced By Bruce Ohr. Just finished reading the 113 page interview transcript of the Redacted Name Witness. From what I could glean so far from this interview is that this appears to be a criminal investigator in the FBI that was introduced to Christopher Steele by Bruce Ohr. Christopher Steele provided this witness with the information that made up the Steele Dossier.  This fitness documented receipt of reports from Steele in 1023 reports and said it was all in the file. Interestingly, this guy's efforts appeared to be usurped by Counterintelligence FBI guys (Bill Priestap, p33).  And, it appears that his seemingly legitimate efforts to provide the Steele information to the proper people within FBI were blown out of the water when Steele went rogue and broadcast the information to multiple media outlets including NYT, Mother Jones, Buzzfeed, Yahoo News, WaPo, The New Yorker and others.  This was in summer to fall of 2016. The witness was taken back by Steele's unprofessional behavior in this and asked him why he did it.  Steele cited his irritation with FBI Comey reopening the Clinton email matter the Friday before.  The witness said Steele had not displayed his political preferences prior to that, but it was clear that he was a Clinton supporter then. Other things evident in this transcript: 1.  The Dossier material was unverified and NOT corroborated.  (P22) 2.  The Dossier was prepared by Christopher Steele for Glenn Simpson (P25-26). 3.  No evidence that Trump colluded with Russia. (P89): O Do you have any information about any of those four individuals during the course of your investigation that would show Donald Trump undertaking any illegal activities with those individuals or other Russians? A No. O Do you have any information during the course of your investigations that any of the other Russian individuals named during the course of these proceedings had - would show that Donald Trump had any illegal activities with them or the Russian Government? A No. 4.  State Department received the Dossier information on addition to FBI, DoJ, and Media Outlets mentioned above.  (John Weiner, p109). 5.  Five Eyes was touched upon briefly in this interview(pp36-37) during discussion about why special handling of the information was done: A.  It happened speciflcally because it was not put into the normal intelligence chain intentionally. So that because of the nature of the this information, whether it were true or not, it was extremely, for lack of a better word, explosive. 6.  Witness said without the introductions Steele made to others, the case may not have been opened (P47): Very possibly we don't initiate the investigation but for some of those introductions that he had made at the outset. 7.  Schiff had strike out after strike out as he tried to pin stuff on Trump, with the witness responses showing no wrongdoing or connections with names Schiff brought up, e.g. Tutakhanov, Deutsche Bank and others (.pp50-57+p80-87). MR. SCHIFF: And during the course of the investigation, again, to your knowledge - and I realize the case agents would have better familiarity with this But during the course of that investigation, through the wiretaps or other means,was there any evidence that The Trump Organization was knowing of the operations of the crime ring in any way? A.  No.
