The Senate Judiciary Committee released a heavily redacted document on Monday in which Republicans claim the author of the infamous anti-Trump ‘dirty dossier’ gave the FBI a second memo about the president’s Russia contacts.
The infamous dossier, compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele, was funded by Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee.
The Judiciary Committee’s document confirms that the second memo was the result of coordination between Steele, a longtime Clinton fixer, and an Obama State Department official.
Committee chair Chuck Grassley and fellow Republican member Lindsey Graham asked the Justice Department last month to investigate whether Steele lied to the FBI about ‘the distribution of claims contained in the dossier.’
The document released Monday is a declassified version of that criminal referral.
Buried in the referral is the revelation that Steele’s second memo was based on information from a foreign source who sent it to him through an unnamed Clinton confidant and an Obama State Department official.
The Guardian reported last week that Steele gave the result to the FBI in October 2016.
The larger dossier also ended up in the hands of the FBI. According to a House Intelligence Committee memo released Friday, the Justice Department used it to justify a Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant against former Trump adviser Carter Page.
