A longtime associate of late Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain provided a copy of the infamous Steele dossier to BuzzFeed News, according to an explosive court filing released Wednesday.
David Kramer, a former State Department official who was an executive at the McCain Institute, met on Dec. 29, 2016 with BuzzFeed reporter Ken Bensinger, according to a filing submitted Wednesday by U.S. District Court Judge Ursula Ungaro.
According to Ungaro, BuzzFeed and Kramer dispute how Bensinger obtained a copy of the dossier.
"The parties dispute whether Kramer gave Bensinger a copy or whether Bensinger took photos of the Dossier when Kramer was not looking," reads a footnote in Ungaro's filing.
Kramer obtained copies of the dossier after meeting in late November 2016 with Steele.
After that Nov. 28, 2016 encounter, Kramer obtained a copy of the dossier from Glenn Simpson, the founder of Fusion GPS, the firm that hired Steele on behalf of the Clinton campaign and DNC. Kramer met Nov. 30, 2016, with McCain and McCain's chief of staff, Christopher Brose, to review Steele's reports.
"Kramer reviewed with Bensinger what he knew about the Dossier and explained that he took the allegations seriously," according to the court filing.

As a hawkish neoconservative politician, McCain earned a reputation as a "Maverick." It was something the hot-tempered Senator sought and relished.
As a member of the Keating Five scandal, McCain skirted with the law and redeemed himself in an all out effort on campaign finance reform.
In 2015, Senator McCain in his fifth term became chairman of the Armed Services Committee, something he longed for as a capstone in his long political career.
On November 8, 2016 after Christopher Steele the former MI6 agent had passed his Trump-Russia dossier on to both his own MI-6 intelligence service in the UK, and to the FBI, Sir Alan Wood, a former UK ambassador was at a meeting attended by Senator John McCain.
McCain dispatched a senior aide and former State Department official to London to meet Christopher Steele in person, the dossier's author and get briefed.
Senator McCain did not like what he read. So he set up a meeting with FBI Director, James Comey, which took place on December 9, 2016.
