Christopher Steele should print up calling cards embossed with the words, "Liar For Hire." He could do splashy commercials bragging that Hillary Clinton is a happily satisfied customer.
The former British spy pocketed buckets of money from the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (not to mention cash from the FBI courtesy of you, the American taxpayer) by conjuring up a phony dossier that was used to smear Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election and trigger an FBI investigation that badly damaged his presidency.
When you think about it, it was one helluva grift. Until it was exposed.
Now, five years after Steele began spinning his ludicrous lies, he is trying in vain to resuscitate his wrecked reputation by doubling down on the same shameful fables during an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. It is no coincidence that his interlocutor was once a chummy adviser to Bill and Hillary Clinton and served as White House Communications Director (chief flack) for the former president.
The semi-friendly venue notwithstanding, Steele managed only to reinforce his disrepute as a serial fabulist and world-class con artist.
This was something the FBI realized, albeit belatedly, in the Fall of 2016 when it fired him as a confidential source because of his audacious deceit. Shortly thereafter, the bureau tracked down his principle source and thoroughly discredited the dossier as nothing more than a sensational collection of hearsay, innuendo, gossip, and puerile supposition. It was, in a word, junk.
Unconscionably, James Comey’s FBI kept this a secret from Trump and the American people so that the agency could exploit the dossier as a pretext to maintain and even escalate its unwarranted probe of the new president that they so despised.

No. The media, Democrats, and the Deep State believe Trump is going to run in 2024 and they believe he has a good chance of winning. They resuscitating the 'Trump Russia Collusion' narrative.
The GOP assisted the Democrats to keep this going after they all knew it was a hoax in June of 2017.
The little shit thinks he’s James Bond.
Steele forgot to say he did it to save the world from a madman.
It was all for the common good, and he did whatever it took, including lying to the world. But, no matter, he had goodness in his heart. So, how can anybody blame him for trying to do a good deed?
Well h could take gig at CNN.

McCabe just got all his bad marks removed and got back pay, by the DoJ.
I suspect they think there’s no downside to the Russia, Russia, Russia thing. Steele didn’t decide this in his own.
Easy to sell to idiots.
.
Rewarded lying FBI agents and reinstated pensions kinda has consequences.
Inst that how all liberals resurrect their careers?

I heard the interview on talk radio with Steffy and Steele. I wouldn’t expect anything less then pure bovine excrement. They even went the Dan Rather route. “There is no tape but it is the seriousness of the charge that matters.” What a bunch of GD liars.
I’d bet the farm that he’s not. lol
Been posting his pieces for years and that’s the first time it’s come up, they’re polar opposites.
With a halo.
