Steele left MI6 in 2009, to start up a commercial intelligence firm, Orbis, with a former colleague, Christopher Burrows. Soon after its founding, Orbis began working with Fusion GPS, a Washington-based company doing political and business research, which commissioned the investigation of Trump in 2016.
Steele delivered a total of 16 reports to Fusion between June and early November 2016, but his sources started to go quiet from July, when Trump’s ties to Russia came under scrutiny. According to Harding’s account, he was shocked by the extent of collusion his sources were reporting.
“For anyone who reads it, this is a life-changing experience,” Steele told friends.
Steele flew to Rome in June to brief his FBI contact with whom he had shared his Fifa report, and returned in September to meet a full FBI team of investigators. He described their response as “shock and horror”, and they asked him to explain his methods and to pass on future reports.
However, as the weeks went by leading up to the 8 November election, the FBI told him it could not go public with material involving a presidential candidate, and then his FBI contacts went silent altogether. Steele told a friend it was clear he had passed on a “radioactive hot potato”.

One thing you can say about the GOP, they are a bunch of devious bastards.
Nothing would be better than a bunch of people trying to write in another candidate after all the absentee ballots have been mailed voting for someone else.
Yep. That dude was apparently looking at 25 years, at least, and got it down to essentially zilch with his cooperation. His contributions had to have been significant to Mueller's investigation.
Because this gave me the giggles, a little fun with Hannity's chart which "connected the Hillary-Fusion GPS-Uranium One dots" last night.
A little late to the party with that whole thing. I mean, is he supposed to un-wear the wire? Obviously he is done with his information gathering portion of his obligations or they would not have gone public with any of this.
Political/PR stunt. Probably by Trump's "SAYS WHO!!!??" buddy....
Seems as though they're finding the existence of more and more stuff to formally request documents on.....
People are flippin' like Cirque du Soleil....
