Cultural marxists that is now in hiding for his life from Russians? Britts? Who?
I am pretty sure he isn’t a Marxist. Spying is very hard on psyche and people in this trade may just develop paranoia seeing conspiracies everywhere.
He's disappeared himself in order to be unavailable for comment. The "in hiding for fear of his life" thing is just meant to prop up what credibility his stinker of a "dossier" still has among the credulous.
Steele was employed first by anti-Trump Republicans then by the Clinton camp. He may even have hustled a fee from the Russians, the Brits and the CIA. Considering the quality of his work, his clients probably want their money back. If this guy isn't a flimflam artist he wouldn't be hiding under a rock right now.
