1. Christopher Steele is a great spy name

And he has a hell of a resume. Surprised that he was not running MI6.

[uponit7771]

3. +1

[flamingdem]

6. He probably looks like James Bond!

We may never know what he does look like..

[NWCorona]

7. Not quite but still

[flamingdem]

11. Oh thanks! I did google him but you found it

I couldn't .. not bad but not quite the type. Too baby faced. He looks smart though

[NWCorona]

15. Agreed but sometimes those are the dangerous ones.

Fyi, I did use Google but used the image search.

[forgotmylogin]

28. If someone looks like an agent

they aren't really a good agent, are they?

[NWCorona]

29. Nope!

[Cha]

17. That's him? I googled him yesterday, too.. wanted to

know what he looked like.

I think Christopher Steele is also a great spy name .. like Remington Steele

Thanks

[NWCorona]

18. Remington Steele? Now you are bringing back some memories lol!

Fyi

I was surprised too.

20. I read about this but not this article which is good.. thank you!

"Meanwhile, Marina Litvinenko, the widow of murdered Alexander Litvinenko, who was critical of Russia's leader Vladmir Putin, said Mr Steele had been put in danger by collecting such information.

She told the BBC: "I believe it is very dangerous, particularly after death of my husband, because when you just approach very specific information, particularly when this information very close to very powerful people, you might be in this line and you just easily might be killed."

I hope he and his family remain safe.

[NWCorona]

22. Agreed! Unfortunately it's not Trump that Steele and his family has to worry about.

You're welcome!

2. One good move that JEB? made. Other than that, nothing. nt

[NWCorona]

23. That fool should have never run for president!

People would still think he's the smart one.

[Maru Kitteh]

30. He may yet be.

If this results in the Defcon 1 level meltdown and undoing of Twitler, as it looks like it may, he could easily claim that mantle.

To be fair, it's an easy one to reach.

[milestogo]

4. Good for him.

[canetoad]

5. Haha

Trump fucked with someone who's Dad was head of the CIA. Meet the parents.

[NWCorona]

8. Exactly! Talk about connections

[canetoad]

9. On reading a bit further into the article

I see that Jeb denied it. Well, he would.

[NWCorona]

13. I would too. Can anyone blame jeb tho lol

[ProudProgressiveNow]

10. +1 nt

[LisaM]

12. Yeah, good one.

And meet what Citizens United can do - unlimited spending from a PAC.

[Generator]

14. Well Jeb's peeps deny it

But thank JESUS for the Brits doing some actual reporting and for those that do more work than our own FBI.

[UTUSN]

16. Let's keep kicking this, Jebbo!1

19. This may explain why GWB and GHWB refused to endorse him even as the nominee

I wonder if they believed it, but could not prove it was accurate. It was a big deal that they did not endorse. It could be they thought it would be wrong to put it out if it was not 100% proven.

[JI7]

25. but even without this they would have had many reasons not to endorse him

[karynnj]

31. Agree completely, but this might explain not giving

A reason for a completely unprecedented action.

Imagine if Carter said he would not vote for any later nominee. Given how polarized the parties are, the candidate would have to have some very very glaring flaws. Now it could be that they were simply convinced he was completely against their neo con foreign policy.

[Hekate]

21. He's on the run now. Hope he lives thru this.

[Xolodno]

24. Makes perfect sense. The Bush family, would of course have the connections.

...they may have the last laugh yet.

Strange how the pieces of the puzzle keep falling into place. Damn I wish I was a screen writer.

[True Dough]

26. I think Russell Crowe plays

the role of Christopher Steele on the big screen. There will be a movie!

[DonCoquixote]

27. my my my

looks like Jed might when you get revenge on Donald Trump. I don't know why he would after all, all Donald did was wrecked his dreams, and make sure that people look up at his brother as the successful president (snicker snicker snicker.)I am not going to Rupert either side in that fight, but that will not stop me munching some damn popcorn, cracking open the last soft drink I could afford before they cut my Social Security, and watch the show.

There was a time that the very stuff of my nightmares was the idea that America would give Intuit's demons and then slowly but surely tear itself from within. Now, I say with a smile and a tear, that part of me is eager to see that happen, because that might be the only way that these parasites are finally able to be removed from our body.

Have fun Jeb, but don't think that's going to make you president. And enjoy all the people who speak of your drunk brother as the smart one in the family!
