Why in the world would the FBI leak to steele, who they knew was working with Fusion that was leaking info to the press to hurt Trump?
They had to know that there was a good chance that this info would get back to Trumps team.
Now if there was a chance of catching trumps team acting illegally, they knew there was someone within there own team that tipped someone off to the FBI, and they would clam up.

They gave the detail that they had someone inside trumps team saying shady thiings were going on with russia
Apparently English is not your first language. The word "details" means specific facts. The testimony does not suggest that the FBI provided any specific facts whatsoever. All they did was say: "There could be something to what you're saying. You're not the only one saying it." There was no mention of Papadopoulos, the wiretaps, or "Stinky Steve" Bannon, one of the principal leakers.

Ok, now that we admit the FBI did this
That they debriefed Steele and had another source of info?
Sure.
That's earth-shaking, how?
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.
Ok. Please provide proof that is why they did it.
I'll wait.
I will wait for you to squirm and move the goal posts again.
Proof please.
If the FBI says we have sources that back up what steele is saying, and they they further state that some of it is from someone inside Trumps team, that is a DETAIL.
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.
Mr. Simpson, you should understand that
18 although the interview is not under oath, by law
19 you are required to answer questions from Congress
20 truthfully. Do you understand that?
21 MR. SIMPSON: Yes.
Well of course as I said in the OP, it is quite possible that simpson or steele are lying.

Is the FBI saying this, or is Diane Feinstein's witness from Fusion GPS? Not only do I not trust the FBI, but I trust Feinstein/Fusion GPS even less. Anything out of their mouths is a lie. If they're saying someone was killed, no one died. If they're saying a crime was committed, no crime was committed. If they're saying we're on the brink of WWIII, we're definitely NOT on the brink of WWIII.
All lies out of their mouths, but especially fools and drunkards like Dianne Feinstein.

You are the one trying to play word games. The FBI did not provide anyone with "details." Arguably, confirming that they were investigating Trump might be considered a "leak," but there is no suggestion of malice.
You want proof that info getting out about someone in trumps team being the source for evidence that Trumps team may have been engaged in illegal activities with russia would hurt trump?
You grow more ridiculous with every post!
The people who engaged in this conspiracy to deprive American Citizens of their God-given civil liberties deserve the harshest punishment. They are wrong in every way, and have let down this country in an unforgiveable way.
Although not within the legal definition of treason, they have committed traitorous acts against the security and legitimacy of the United States. This is a situation that cannot be rectified while they're free, or have a chance of future freedom.
Lock them away in a black site that isn't on any official records, and throw away the key. The food/water will run out eventually, and no one will have to listen to them whine for a month. Traitors deserve nothing, including basic survival necessities. Let them eat the bugs and rat droppings.

No. I want to know the proof you have to prove that was the intent if the FBI.

Asking you to prove that which you claim is absurd, huh?
Show me the money and stop wasting our time with your childish BS.
