15. They claim that the Steele Dossier was the start of the probe

But there were already FISA actions out on people that would come to serve in the Trumposphere.

IMO the Steele Dossier just compiled threads that were already floating in the CI world for a paying customer. Other than to acknowledge that it started as Opp Info for a GOP primary campaign that was then shopped to the Dems, we don't know who initiated/funded the research.

Another thing about the GOP primary investigations not mentioned is that while Steele was hired to look into possible Russian connections because of his background, surely other areas were being looked into by subject matter experts (SMEs)? Anyone looking for dirt on Trump had to look into casinos, money laundering, construction contracts, infidelity, and business fraud at a minimum. Wonder where those dossiers are now?

So please Senate GOP, open investigations into the start of the investigations.
