Re: You're conflating two things, AC.
1. Fusion GPS was paid for investigative reporting, first by a conservative Republican news source (funded largely by Paul Singer), who did not support the candidacy of Trump. After Trump's primary victory, then a lawyer associated with the Clinton campaign hired the company. Nothing illegal.
2. Fusion GPS is based in Washington, DC. Last I looked, that's part of the United States. Just west of Delaware. Can't miss it, AC. Christopher Steele is a British national, and he was hired by Fusion GPS because of his Russian expertise. It's legal to hire foreigners. Done all the time. Nothing illegal.
3. The founders of Fusion GPS, an American company, decided to release the Trump dossier because they believed it contained material in the American public interest. The FBI had already corroborated some of the material, based on their own investigations, and already had possession of the dossier. No foreign money. Nothing illegal.
And there are no grounds whatsoever for indicting Christopher Steele. You misunderstand both the facts and the law, AC.
