Christopher Steele reportedly worried about becoming the fall-guy for Russia hoax
American Thinker ^ | 06/06/2019 | Thomas Lifson

Now that he apparently has made a deal to speak with US investigators about his “dossier” (purchased with DNC and Hillary campaign monies) that was used to mislead a FISA Court into allowing domestic spying on US citizens, former British spy Christopher Steele is letting a buddy at the New York Times know that he is nervous about becoming a fall-guy. Appearing on CNN Tuesday, NYT reporter Matthew Rosenberg told Don Lemon:

“He is incredibly concerned and obsessed this investigation is going to throw him under the bus. And his view, at least from the people close to him, is, ‘Look, I was working on this dossier that people were paying for. I saw things that the Democrats were paying for. I saw things that seemed frightening to me and alarming. I went to old contacts of the FBI to tell them. I wasn’t a paid source in this case.’ That’s his view of it.”

For his own sake, I hope Steele has some real dirt to offer on the higher-ups in MI-6, the CIA, and the FBI. I am pretty sure that US Attorney Durham is more interested in them than he is in Steele.

I’d be willing to bet good money that as a result of President Trump’s visit to London and his discussions with the Queen and PM May, an agreement has been reached to keep the Special Relationship strong by ridding Her Majesty’s government of the people who sought to interfere in our elections and unseat an elected president.

Steele is a little fish. He knows it. It’s time to play Let’s Make a Deal.

If he’s smart he would have included in the “deal”, around the clock police protection in a secluded area!

Well I am incredibly concerned that his roll in the conspiracy to falsely accuse our President has stolen two years of progress on the very real problems that our country faces. The real economic toll is trillion$.

People have been executed for less.

I find this to be good news. If he doesn't want to be the "fall guy", he is getting ready to give some interesting info to the Feds. They must be getting close to the actual epicenter of this whole fiasco; as, in the past week or so, these guys are beginning to turn on each other.

This guy is just probably to be one of the first to fall when the process begins to bite seriously.

1. This will be useful if a serious interrogator first questions Steele about hard facts, events, timing, then proceed to sources, contacts, what he wrote, everyone he communicated with.

2. For Steele to push the idea that he is being made a scapegoat, implies an expectation that the FBI is still full of corrupt players, looking for cover. Barr doesn’t need a British scapegoat — he needs to know which US players were involved, and which allied IC personnel worked with them.

“I am surprised there haven’t been ‘disappearances’!”

Me too. On the other hand, it’s risky killing someone.

More likely the Deep State has chosen a couple fall guys and Steele will pin the tail on the donkies.
