Well, we knew it was coming at some point…the moment when the “Dossier
Dam” would break and the truth would come rushing through.
We’re now seeing the first crack in the wall and the water is starting
to leak—Democrats must be groaning in agony.
Christopher Steele, the former British Intel spy who wrote the debunked
“fan fiction” Trump-Russia dossier for Team Hillary, just threw Clinton and
disgraced liar Susan Rice under the proverbial bus during testimony in a
British court.
Mr. Steele told a British court that he believed Hillary Clinton and
Susan Rice were both aware of his dossier research as it was ongoing during the
summer of 2016. This latest testimony is the most solid link yet between
his Russia collusion research and the very tippy-top of the Clinton campaign
and the Obama White House: Two things that President Trump has alleged, but
nobody could prove.

Steele told a British court he believed he had been hired by the Fusion
GPS firm owned by Glenn Simpson through the Democratic National
Committee-linked law firm Perkins Coie to assist the Clinton campaign during
the election, according to a transcript of the testimony.
“I presumed it was the Clinton campaign, and Glenn Simpson had indicated
that. But I was not aware of the technicality of it being the DNC that was
actually the client of Perkins Coie,” Steele testified in March under
questioning from lawyers for Russian bankers suing over his research.
“You knew it was the leadership of the Clinton presidential campaign
didn’t you?” a lawyer for the businessmen asked.
“I believed it was the campaign. Yes,” he answered.
“The leadership of the Clinton campaign?” he was asked.
“Fine, the leadership of the campaign,” Steele conceded.
The lawyer persisted.
“You also understood that Hillary Clinton herself was aware of what you
were doing?” the lawyer asked.
“I think Glenn had mentioned it, but I wasn’t clear,” Steele answered.
Later, in his testimony, while discussing how the timeline and
circumstances unfolded that led to him presenting his dossier findings to the
U.S. State Department, Steele mentioned that former Obama National Security
Advisor Susan Rice was also aware of the work he was doing.

The News:
“Both National Security Advisor at the time Susan Rice and Åssistant
Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, who were the key policymakers on Russia,
had been colleagues of Mr. Talbott. And I had, although he didn’t state it
explicitly, one or either or both of them had briefed him on the work we had
been doing.”
