I wish someone could explain WTH that even means.
+10,000 points.
Chris, were was the 'truth to power' talk under Obama? A$$hole!
It means, "We lie. Deal with it."
I would like to think that if the UK wants to get back in the good graces of their closest historical ally, part of the deal will be them making sure Steele ceases breathing permanently.
Sky UK presenters were so excited by this story. ironic it involves Vanity “Swetnick” Fair, whose writers - Ronan Farrow and Jane Mayer - have just disgraced themselves with FakeNews. as for Michelle Obams and Beyoncé being on the list, but not President Trump - unbelievable:
10 Oct: Sky News UK: Ex-MI6 spy’s veiled swipe at Donald Trump revealed
Christopher Steele says it is hard to speak “unpalatable truths to power” as he features on Vanity Fair’s influential people list
By Deborah Haynes
He is the only named British national on the American-dominated countdown.
Topping the chart is Robert Mueller, a former FBI director who is leading a special inquiry into Russia.
Former first lady Michelle Obama is at number six, while singer Beyonce is at number eight.
Mr Trump did not make the list...
But his entry onto the New Establishment List by Vanity Fair appears to have spurred him to make the new remarks in an email to the magazine’s editor-in-chief Radhika Jones.
“I was surprised and honoured, particularly as a Brit, to be included” in the list, his message continued.
“I find myself in the company of many talented and distinguished people, although I personally would not accord such accolades to some of the other foreign nationals included in the list!”...
The former intelligence officer indicated he is unable to travel to the US at a time of deep divisions between Republicans and Democrats over the Russia probe.
“In more normal times, I would have welcomed the opportunity to join you at your New Establishment Summit in the US this week,” Mr Steele wrote.
“Sadly, in the present legal and political situation I am unable to do so, but I sincerely hope and trust that these circumstances will change soon.”

says the guy who manufactured lies to help the powerful keep hold of their power.
Can we put all these Russian Dossier conspirators in fail yet?
Might be a little difficult to lock up a Brit spy but if all the Americans were locked up, maybe he’d shut his mouth
Seems to me that Trump should be No. 1. Taking on the deep state is the essence of speaking unpalatable truths to power.
But Russians buying a few ads on fb is nuclear war worthy...
We still have an extradition agreement with the UK dont we?
Bkmrk.
Bite me you lame-ass Limey!
Has anyone even considered that this Steele guy isn’t really “EX”-MI6? He’s kinda young to be a retired case officer; he wasn’t just a Russian case officer, but the head of the Russian desk at MI-6 and why is a Brit so fervently concerned about who becomes president of the United States? GCHQ (the British NSA), under the FIVE EYES agreement, has access to any intercepts of US communications (STELLAR WIND) and MI6 is very close to the CIA (John Brennan) and the Director of National Intelligence (Jim Clapper).
We’re getting a pretty good understanding of the real, illegal collusion (conspiracy) involving the DOJ, FBI, DNC, etc. Time we started to out the role of the CIA, Brennan, Clapper, Harper, etc. and tell people who Peter Strzok really was/is.
There are a lot of questions about Christopher Steele but no one in authority seems to be interested in talking to him.
[Steele]
anyone who uses the phrase "speak truth to power" needs to be arrested and throw away the key.
Hmmmmmm, vera intertresstin, that this socialist wanker hadda nought problems with the totalitarian one sided government of
Bathhouse Barry and his little terror cell.
yikes - should have remembered Mayer and Farrow are at The New Yorker, a different FakeNews outfit.
Methinks someone’s asshole just puckered up.

I love it when members of the deep-state globalist ruling cabal step up to the plate and talk bravely of “speaking to power”.
