Two Republican Senators have made a criminal referral for Christopher Steele, the author of the Trump dossier, to the Department of Justice.
In a shocking move Friday afternoon, GOP Senators Chuck Grassley and Lindsey Graham referred the so-called “Trump dossier” writer Christopher Steele for criminal investigation. They are referring him to the Justice Department for what they say are potential violations regarding inconsistencies Steele made in statements provided to authorities. “I don’t take lightly making a referral for criminal investigation. But, as I would with any credible evidence of a crime unearthed in the course of our investigations, I feel obliged to pass that information along to the Justice Department for appropriate review,” Grassley said in a statement.
BOOM! Finally some action!!!
Wait, wait…
Just in: Grassley and Graham have made a criminal referral to DOJ about Chris Steele. Legal experts tell me this looks like a PR stunt, mostly because it's not clear that the senators have info that the FBI does not already have (and DOJ hasn't independently pursued charges) pic.twitter.com/J5RTkzI2Y2

Hmmmm. A “PR stunt”? This comes down to whether the Justice Department actually follows through at all, and whether they get somewhere with the criminal complaint…
At least it’s making people on the left freak out like idiots:
Wow! @ChuckGrassley and @LindseyGrahamSC are so DESPERATE they are now requesting and investigation and criminal charges for Christopher Steele
The American People will never FORGET How @GOP sold out this country to 🇷🇺 for Power and Money
