Where does it say that???
Chris at this point -- that they believed Chris's 7 information might be credible because they had 8 other intelligence that indicated the same thing 9 and one of those pieces of intelligence was a human 10 source from inside the Trump organization.
The FBI, which is supposed to be a non political entity, tasked with keeping our country safe, apparently was giving details of looking into election interference between Trump and russians to a former spy from another country that they knew to be getting paid by an oppo research firm working for Trumps opponent, Hillary.

I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion based on the quote you provided.
We cannot say for certain what Steele was told by whom and the context in which that was relayed or portrayed to the person at Fusion.
Also, if the FBI tells Steele that they might believe his story because other sources may corroborate what he found, what is the problem?
It is a leap in logic to say this is proof the FBI puts it's interests in making Trump look bad ahead of anything else.
Q. You said that he told you of the meeting
19 with the FBI in Rome in mid or late September, that
20 he "gave them a full briefing"?
21 A. A debrief I think is what he probably
22 said, they had debriefed him. I don't remember him
23 articulating the specifics of that. You know, my
24 understanding was that they would have gotten into
25 who his sources were, how he knew certain things,
Page 175
1 and, you know, other details based on their own
2 in
telligence. Essentially what he told me was they
3 had other intelligence about this matter from an
4 internal Trump campaign source and that -- that
5 they -- my understanding was that they believed
6 Chris at this point -- that they believed Chris's
7 information might be credible because they had
8 other intelligence that indicated the same thing
9 and one of those pieces of intelligence was a human
10 source from inside the Trump organization.

Almost like no one who flagged it actually read the OP...
It's almost as if no one actually read the quote from the transcript. There are some very specific words used that demand more context be provided before coming to any conclusion.
It is clear that simpson is saying the FBI told steele at that meeting that they had info, including from someone on trumps team being a source.
So in your opinion, Simpson saying the FBI gave Steele a debrief in Rome, and then immediately saying the FBI believed portions because they had other sources including someone inside trumps campaign is not enough proof that Simpson is saying the FBI told steele that?
Its almost like you are willing to ignore reality in your quest to hate trump.

No, it is not clear. There are specific words used that cast much doubt on what we can say for certain.

Go back and read the exchange. There is one word that casts doubt on everything. Can you figure out which word that is?
Its almost like you are willing to ignore reality in your quest to hate trump.
How does this have anything to do with hating Trump and where did I say I hate Trump?
Do you just like to make # up as you go?
Never mind. Don't answer that. We already know.
What specific words?
Do you acknowledge that Simpson says steele was debriefed by the FBI in rome?
And also that steele told simpson that the FBI had sources inside Trumps team? Where would have steele gotten that info if not from the FBI? How would he have know what the FBI had if the FBI didnt tell him?
And as far as your hatred of trump, you dont have to say it, your constant chnaging of standards to make trump look bad, or ignoring of reality is obvious.
Thats ok though, its always fun to watch you ignore evidence to push your narrative.

What evidence?
Did you not see his statement of "my understanding"?
Ok. What was he told, specifically?
Can you provide that? If not, we are only left with his "understanding".

I can show that he testified that Steele told him he was debreifed in Rome, and that the FBI had a source inside trumps team that backed up some of steeles research.
Again, how would steele know about papadopolous or any other sources the FBI had if the FBI didnt tell him this in the debriefing?

Details? Be specific. What details were the FBI giving? Names? No. Locations? No. Sources? No. All they said was that they had other information. It wasn't just Papadopolous, by the way. They also had recordings of other Trump staff talking to Russian agents. Trump himself has said so.

Irrelevant.
Please provide proof that the FBI did this in any form to harm Trump.
They gave the detail that they had someone inside trumps team saying shady thiings were going on with russia
Ok, now that we admit the FBI did this
I said in the OP that the FBI did this against Trump, as in he was the person that this info getting out to the press would hurt.
I will wait for you to squirm and move the goal posts again.
