RedState redstate.com/elizabeth-vaug…, citing @dbongino, draws attention to description of Steele collector (Person A) in new Fusion book. 
@dbongino 2/ also noting use of Trubnikov's name, they speculate that Person A was Halper.
@dbongino 3/ readers will undoubtedly notice that I had already connected the description of Steele's collector in the Fusion GPS to Halper.
@dbongino 4/ @RealSLokhova had already pointed out the pertinence of Trubnikov detail to potential Halper identification, as I noted in my own twitter feed
@dbongino @RealSLokhova 5/ about to listen to @dbongino podcast .
Sounds like it will be interesting.

@dbongino @RealSLokhova 6/ RedState story says that Bongino question was whether "Steele paying a guy who was already being paid by the U.S. government to spy on a presidential campaign for information that spy was getting from a Russian intel head?"
@dbongino @RealSLokhova 7/ if so (and I've just started listening to podcast), the question is being framed much differently than @RealSLokhova and I. Our view is that Halper did NOT obtain infor from Trubnikov, that he fabricated smear.
@dbongino @RealSLokhova 9/ Bngino cited Climate Audit tweet at minute 53:30 as identification of Person A
@dbongino @RealSLokhova 10/ @dBongino, uniquely among media commentators, is covering the Halper-Steele issue. I have some slight disagreement on nuance (on which reasonable people can disagree) but recommend that readers of this thread listen to his comments and endorse overall.
