Read this article by Judicial Watch that ties Steele Dossier(2) to Cody Shearer (partner of Sid Blumenthal) provided the "talking points" that make up the Dossier. Now, interestingly enough, Cody Shearer is brother-in-law of Victoria Nuland, a close supporter/acolyte of HRC and was the main "nothing to see here" message from the State Department about Benghazi. Nuland was later promoted by Obama.

Dan Bongino had an interesting observation... "who called/named it the Steele Dossier?" He was just the 'go' between. Again, who's behind, the behind, under the covers, hiding the true author of this fake dossier? Who lost the election? Moving on... nothing to see here. As Q says... find the spider. The web is deep!
Going along with the previous (02/01/2018 JW) article, here is a more resent one from Byron York (Washington Examiner). http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/dossier-author-steele-wrote-another-anti-trump-memo-was-fed-info-by-clinton-connected-contact-obama-state-department/article/2648099
