Reputable accounts reveal that former associate deputy attorney general Bruce Ohr and his wife Nellie continued to receive reports from Christopher Steele, author of the now discredited dossier.
They show Ohr had contact with Steele in the days just before the FBI opened its Trump-Russia probe in summer 2016, and then engaged Steele as a "Confidential human source" assisting in that probe.
"Doubtless a sad and crazy day for you re- SY," Steele texted Ohr on Jan. 31, 2017, referencing President Trump's firing of Sally Yates for insubordination.
Steele's FBI relationship had been terminated about three months earlier.
The FBI specifically instructed Steele that he could no longer "Operate to obtain any intelligence whatsoever on behalf of the FBI," those memos show.
Steele asked Ohr in the Jan. 31 text exchange if he could continue to help feed information to the FBI: "Just want to check you are OK, still in the situ and able to help locally as discussed, along with your Bureau colleagues."
FBI officials now admit they continued to receive information from Steele through Ohr, identifying more than a half-dozen times its agents interviewed Ohr in late 2016 and 2017, to learn what Steele was saying.
