Fusion GPS then hired Christopher Steele to prepare the dossier against Trump. Steele was a former British intelligence officer who had ties to both the FBI and the U.S. intelligence community, according to a report in the Washington Post.

Trump Tweeted about the dossier on October 21, 2017, writing: “Officials behind the now discredited "Dossier" plead the Fifth. Justice Department and/or FBI should immediately release who paid for it.”

Fusion GPS had originally researched Trump with funding from an unknown Republican during the primary. Elias’ law firm, Perkins Coie, retained Fusion GPS in April 2016, reportedly on behalf of Clinton’s campaign and the DNC.

According to the report, Clinton’s campaign and the DNC funded Fusion GPS' research through the end of October, just days before the election.
