 [Daily Caller] The top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee said on Sunday that he wants to meet with former British spy Christopher Steele to review each of the allegations made in the so-called Trump dossier.
In an interview on CNN’s "State of the Union," California Rep. Adam Schiff said that he would be willing to travel to London to meet with Steele, a retired MI6 agent who was hired by a Washington, D.C. opposition firm last June to investigate any Trump ties to Russia.
"We would like to have him come before the committee. If he’s not willing to do that, we would be happy, Mr. Conaway and myself, to go to London to sit down with him," Schiff said, referring to Texas Rep. Mike Conaway, the Republican overseeing the committee’s Russia investigation.
"He does have, I think, certainly very relevant information that would assist our investigation. We want to do this certainly in a cooperative way," Schiff said of Steele, who operates the research firm, Orbis Business Intelligence, in London.
Steele was hired last June by opposition research firm Fusion GPS. Founded by former Wall Street Journal reporter Glenn Simpson, Fusion GPS was investigating Trump on behalf of a political ally of Hillary Clinton’s.
