The former British intelligence officer who wrote the memos about Trump and Russia has been revealed
The 35-page report contained unverified claims about Trump's activities in Russia and campaign coordination with Kremlin officials. Steele's findings were apparently based on conversations he had had with Russian intelligence sources.
Steele is a director of London-based Orbis Business Intelligence Ltd., a private security and investigations firm. He is 52 years old. He has a good reputation in the intelligence community and spent years stationed in Russia, according to the Journal.
Former British intelligence professionals founded Orbis in 2009, according to the Journal. It carries out "intelligence-gathering operations" and "complex, often cross-border investigations." Corporations often use firms like Orbis for research on business partners.
Trump denied the allegations contained in Orbis' report, which was financed by anti-Trump Republicans.
