Sometime around Thanksgiving 2016 Simpson of met with Obama Dep. Attn. Gen. Bruce Ohr while President-elect Trump was selecting his cabinet, and discussed the ''Steele dossier'', the FBI's Russia meddling investigation, and what Simpson considered the distressing development of Trump’s victory. The ''Steele dossier'' had been in the hands of the FBI for some five months, and the surveillance on Carter Page, an adviser to the Trump campaign, had started more than two months prior. Attn Gen. Loretta Lynch used the opposition research paid for by [[Hillary Clinton]] to justify a foreign surveillance warrant (FISA) against Page.
