it is a long enough document , but scanning through it i CAN see why Republicans wanted to hide this. The Doc seems to show Fusion GPS in a good light and appears awful for trump
it clearly shows Steele was concerned with Trump being blackmailed by Putin and that this was the motivation to contact the FBI..
Grassley should be ashamed of himself.
I agree with the bold. I would really like to him to try to explain why this couldn't be released.
The whole song and dance they pulled doesn't seem to reflect well on them right now, and sure smells like they were trying to keep it hidden for a reason.
Steele went to the FBI as he obtained evidence that the Russians may have something to blackmail the Trump campaign with, and he believed that blackmail could be threatening to US national security.
Steele is more patriotic towards the US than Grassley, Nunes and their ilk.
And, btw, the FBI had a whistleblower inside the Trump camp.
"...Essentially what he (Steele) told me (Simpson) was they (the FBI) had other intelligence about this matter from an internal Trump campaign source and that -- that they -- my understanding was that they believed Chris at this point -- that they believed Chris's information might be credible because they had other intelligence that indicated the same thing and one of those pieces of intelligence was a human source from inside the Trump organization.
Wow. Where exactly do you get that from? What nonsense.
You are correct!
I can't believe the extent to which tRUMPISTS either don't understand what they read or willingly spread misinformation.
Thank you for calling out that member a moment ago!

You see, he and Steele "were eager to accept intelligence from a foreign government about their political rivals and that is, you know, I would say, a form of interference".
Very interesting. If some of the information in this release can be corroborated, it might end up being a very big deal.
It's no wonder Nunes and Grassley wanted to keep this from the public.
Nunes has long behaved as if he has something dirty to hide. Let it all come into the light.
And more recently grassley & graham have joined in as trUMP water carriers!
Something in the gop smells fishy!
You see, he and Steele "were eager to accept intelligence from a foreign government about their political rivals and that is, you know, I would say, a form of interference".
So I guess hiring someone to do a fake dossier using info given to them by paid Russian government spies, to undermine elections by smearing a candidate would meet your criteria for interference?
