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

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".

After this fiasco, John McCain, Rick Wilson, Evan McMullin, James Clapper, and the entire staff of Buzzfeed should be in hiding.

In hiding?
From what or who?
Is he not proud of the job he did supposing it was done by him?

Or is he afraid that we will discover that he made it all up from scratch?................

He could have at least given 4chan credit before he left home for the wilds of an unfamiliar pub.

You know....if Ian Fleming were alive...he’d go and take all of this and turn it into another James Bond movie.

All of these hidden characters....almost like from the original bad guys...SMERSH. McCain....some fake political hack without any idea of what he’s doing. Clapper, taking orders from someone but you don’t know who. McMufflin....some .0000007 secret-agent guy but he’s more likely some Mormon guy hiding out in a Frankfurt Starbucks for CNN agents to arrive.

Running like the coward he is. Let’s just say he’s no James Bond. Only JEB would be dumb enough to employ a jerk like this, who sold one of his twisted sex fantasies as an intelligence report. That’s what happens when you have more money than sense.

He is confusing Trump for Hillary.

If he had done this against Hillary he would have committed suicide by now.

He’s “undercover” and agents have planted false news reports for decades. That is what they are accusing the Ruskies of.

Saul Alinsky did it too.

This administration and this generation of media chairs LOVES Saul Alinsky and the god of Satan that he worshiped and served.

I thought that troll 4chan made it.
