Daily Caller:
A lawyer representing the DNC and Clinton campaign provided Christopher Steele with information in 2016 regarding an alleged secret communications channel between the Trump Organization and a Russian bank, the former spy told a British court last month.
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.

Nothing really happened at those heavyweight meetings anyway.
Yeah, Barr-Sessions is getting right on it.
Remember that third debate in the 2016 election between Clinton and Trump? Out of nowhere, Clinton brings up Trump’s nefarious connection with the Russians. That was her signal to get the MSDM to start the Russian Collusion story. Except it didn’t gain any traction, because most of it was too implausible to be credible. Golden showers, Russian hookers, and Putin’s puppet strings. This is what started the whole phony hoax. Bought and paid for by the Clinton campaign, and continued by Robespierre Mueller and his crooked investigators.
WHY
Is Hillary Clinton not considered a
CRIMINAL
