Ex-MI6 officer Christopher Steele in hiding after Trump dossier
BBC News ^ | 2017-01-12

Posted on 01/12/2017 6:38:19 AM PST by VitacoreVision

An ex-MI6 officer who is believed to have prepared memos claiming Russia has compromising material on US President-elect Donald Trump is now in hiding, the BBC understands.

Christopher Steele, who runs a London-based intelligence firm, is believed to have left his home this week.

The memos contains unsubstantiated claims that Russian security officials have compromising material on Mr Trump.

The US president-elect said the claims were "fake news" and "phoney stuff".

Mr Steele has been widely named as the author of a series of memos - which has been published as a dossier in some US media - that contains extensive allegations about Mr Trump's personal life and his campaign's relationship with the Russian state.

Among the allegations are that Moscow has a video recording of Mr Trump with prostitutes and damaging information about his business activities. 'In fear'

BBC News correspondent Paul Wood said he understood Mr Steele left his home on either Tuesday or Wednesday, before he was publicly named, and was now "in hiding".

He’s Ex-MI6. He’s not a secret agent anymore.

Eric Braverman and Marc Turi (Clinton crime witnesses) are still hiding from the media, now for almost three months.

Actually Buzzfeed should be busy selling any equipment/furniture that belongs to the enterprise, filing any papers they need to for dumping the “company” and slinking away to some really crappy country where nobody would recognize them.

And they take should McCain with them. What a SKANK!

demented McCain handed what he thought was a CIA dossier to CNN, and McCain sits on committees where secrets are read.

Censure McCain and impeach him violation of the Secrets act.

McCains daughter works for Fox, McCain for CNN.

Arizona did us all a diservice Kelly Ward was much better then putting a senile nut in the Senate until he is 86 years old

In hiding?

No. He’s taken all of the money he got from Cruz, Beck, Romney, and Clinton, and he’s on a tropical beach somewhere drinking pina coladas.

If he is “in hiding” then it is probably from THE MEDIA

He’s exposed them for the fake news purveyors that they are even more so than during the election.

So is he in hiding because he was outted as a player in the fake news scandal thats implicating Jeb Bush and the US Intel agency and they may be looking to cover their tracks, or is he in hiding because he thinks Obama may call a drone strike on his ass before the 20th?

THIS is what you get when you permit wholesale affirmation of the Liberal agenda.

For DECADES and with complete impunity, these Liberal goons have been maliciously foisting their interminable narrative of groundless, libelous and self-serving trash-talk on the population…all under the guise of ‘journalism’.

None of these people who call themselves ‘journalists’ has ever been intelligent or courageous enough to present basic, direct, essential questions when this was going on, or EVEN to suggest that a question is possible.

What in the h&#@ do these people expect NOW?

They have recklessly cultivated a political landscape so toxic and logically indefensible that it perfectly mirrors what Americans have recognized and always mocked in third world governments!!

Unless they are ALL abject morons, they HAD to know that they could not THEMSELVES remain detached and unsullied in the process.

Republicans are as much to blame. We can remind them of their smug complaisance and their ‘go along to get along’ conduct. They couldn’t think past their ‘re-election’ to office…continuance of their perks, their prestige, their easy living and elite status.

ENOUGH!

Michael Medved bragged on his Salem media talk show this week that he voted for Evan McMullin. Medved should just shut up about it, it’s not helping his reputation with conservative listeners.

Perhaps he is in the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, waiting for Pamela Anderson to bring him a home-cooked vegan dinner?

So did Glenn Beck, I think.

I don’t listen to either of them.

I wonder if McCain will put in an appearance during Trump’s inaugural festivities. I’m appalled that McCain could pass on a report that contains such despicable false stories about any fellow American.

Glenn Beck is on one of two Pittsburgh-area talk radio stations and I turned off the station that broadcasts Beck as soon as Salem media began broadcasting at AM 1250 the answer in my market. I couldn’t stand Beck’s blathering and general nonsense during the morning hours when I just wanted to relax and prepare for my busy day.
