Of foreign meddling by UK's Christopher Steele in US 2016 election: "You can be an FBI informant. You can be a political operative. But you can't be both, particularly at the same time."-Senate Judiciary Committee member Graham

Of foreign meddling by UK's Christopher Steele in 2016 US election as both FBI informant and Democrat political operative, Senator Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.), longtime member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said:

“You can be an FBI informant. You can be a political operative. But you can’t be both, particularly at the same time.”

"Among Steele’s actions now under scrutiny is his decision to forward to the FBI-along with his own research-a separate report detailing uncorroborated allegations [from US State Dept.] about Trump's behavior that had been written by a longtime Clinton friend. 

...Steele, who is facing libel lawsuits by people named in the dossier of research he compiled, declined to comment."...
