On December 13, 2016 UK huckster [[Christopher Steele]] wrote his final dossier installment of the ''[[Steele dossier]]'' (no memos have been written since Oct. 20, 2016). It asserted a [[Michael Cohen]] August 2016 meeting occurred in [[Prague]]. Cohen has never been to Prague. Steele declared in court documents this memo was produced on request of [[David Kramer]], an associate of Sen. [[John McCain]]. Steele gave a copy of this memo to a “senior UK government national security official” and to [[FusionGPS]] “with an instruction that Fusion was to provide a hard copy to Sen. McCain via Mr. Kramer.” Steele's Dec. 13, 2016 memo, also known as Report 166, to Kramer, an unidentified British security official [Robert Hannigan or Alex Younger?], Senior Director for Russian Affairs at the National Security Council Celeste Wallander (spelled incorrectly as Wallender in the court document),<ref>https://www.wm.edu/offices/revescenter/news/2016/reves-hosts-dr.-celeste-wallander.php</ref> Adam Kinzinger and House Speaker [[Paul Ryan]]’s chief of staff, Jonathan Burks.

The Queen of the Swamp [[Victoria Nuland]]<ref>[https://rumble.com/v37gwwo-system-update-130.html Unmasking the Destructive Career of Neocon-Monster Victoria Nuland], Glenn Greenwald, August 14, 2023.</ref> told [[CBS]] that she received a copy of the ''[[Steele dossier]]'' in July 2016 and forwarded it to the [[FBI]]. She has argued that she did right to forward the dossier to the bureau, but in doing so she helped launder Steele’s bogus allegations by adding credibility to the unverified document in acting as a highly-placed conduit. 

 

Between Sept. 26, 2016, and Dec. 10, 2016, Nuland received Russia-related information from Steele via State Department official [[Jonathan Winer]].  During these three months, the FBI obtained the secret [[FISA court]] warrant to surveil Trump campaign associate [[Carter Page]]. On December 13, 2016 UK Trump-Russia hoaxer [[Christopher Steele]] wrote his final dossier installment (no memos have been written since Oct. 20, 2016). It asserted a [[Michael Cohen]] August 2016 meeting occurred in [[Prague]]. Cohen has never been to Prague. Steele declared in court documents this memo was produced on request of [[David Kramer]], an associate of Sen. [[John McCain]].  

 

Steele gave a copy of this memo to a “senior UK government national security official” and to [[FusionGPS]] “with an instruction that Fusion was to provide a hard copy to Sen. McCain via Mr. Kramer.” Steele's Dec. 13, 2016 memo, also known as Report 166, given to Kramer, was also given to an unidentified British security official ([[Robert Hannigan]] or Alex Younger?), Senior Director for Russian Affairs at the National Security Council Celeste Wallander (spelled incorrectly as Wallender in the court document),<ref>https://www.wm.edu/offices/revescenter/news/2016/reves-hosts-dr.-celeste-wallander.php</ref> Kinzinger, and House Speaker [[Paul Ryan]]’s chief of staff, Jonathan Burks. Victoria Nuland received a briefing about the Dec. 13, 2016 memo from Kramer. McCain specifically directed Kramer to brief Nuland about the dossier. The extent of Kramer’s outreach lay bare a coordinated plan to widely disseminate the dossier among highly placed officials, lawmakers, and the [[media]]. In addition to briefing Nuland, Kramer briefed 17 members of the media.
