indict now.
the plotters (including many in the FakeNewsMSM) are still pushing their fake narratives, & Christopher Steele is still a Russia “expert”! unbelievable:

7 Aug 2020: BBC: Christopher Steele: Ex-spy says more must be done to stop Russian interference
By Gordon Corera, Security correspondent
There must be an organised effort to prevent Russia from disrupting and distorting political life, former MI6 officer Christopher Steele has warned.
Mr Steele was behind the so-called Trump-Russia dossier, which alleged collusion between Moscow and the US president’s 2016 election campaign.

In an interview with Conservative MP Damian Collins, he warned that Russia is targeting all political parties.
He added the UK had been “behind the curve” in deterring Russian activity...

***Former MI6 officer Mr Steele gave evidence to the Intelligence and Security Committee’s Russia inquiry, which released its report last month.
The report criticised the security services for failing to investigate whether the Kremlin had interfered in Brexit and other areas of politics in recent years...
Moscow has denied any role in this and other acts of political interference...

Mr Steele, who left MI6 in 2009 and set up a private business intelligence firm called Orbis, is best known for his role in the so-called Trump-Russia dossier, which was made public in January 2016.
It alleged collusion between Mr Trump’s election campaign and Russia and has become the subject of intense political battles, with the US president tweeting that he wanted Mr Steele extradited.
Some of the dossier’s claims have been disputed and Mr Steele did not discuss it in detail in the podcast interview, as legal action is ongoing.

***He did say, though, that he expects more interference in the 2020 US election with some foreign governments concerned about the Democratic candidate Joe Biden winning in November.
“We are on the defensive,” Mr Steele argued, adding that the West is weaker than at any point since the end of the Cold War.

Dejevsky also writes for UK Independent & Guardian:

1 Aug: UK Spectator: Should the Russia Report have relied on Christopher Steele?
by Mary Dejevsky
When the Intelligence and Security Committee’s (ISC) Russia Report was finally published last week, the name of one person who gave evidence will have leapt out for many people. Among the ‘external expert witnesses’ listed was none other than a certain ‘Mr Christopher Steele, Director of Orbis Business Intelligence Ltd’.

Steele, you may remember, was the official author of the dossier on Donald Trump that was commissioned on behalf of the US Democratic Party in the run-up to the 2016 US election and which acquired a second life when it was published by Buzzfeed shortly before Trump’s inauguration...

We shall probably never know either what Steele told the Intelligence and Security Committee all those months ago, or how much credence his testimony commanded. There is a large annex to the ISC report that is classified and crucial passages in the published report are redacted...
