Rep. Adam Schiff No Democrat has embraced the charges in the Steele dossier more than Mr. Schiff of California, the leading Democrat on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. At a March 2017 hearing, he read some of its charges into the record as if they had been proven. He and some fellow hard-line Democrats have credited the dossier with disclosures that could be found on the Internet beforehand. Mr. Schiff has used committee hearings to try to prove a dossier charge that Mr. Trump took in prostitutes to his hotel room in Moscow. He also pushed the dossier’s far-fetched tale that Michael Cohen, Mr. Trump’s lawyer, secretly traveled to Prague in August 2016 to arrange with Russian agents a coverup of Kremlin hacking. There is no evidence outside the dossier and Mr. Cohen has testified under oath he never went to Prague or any where else to do a coverup. Fusion’s Mr. Simpson still believes Mr. Cohen made the trip, suggesting he could have flown in a Russian’s plane and was on a yacht in the Adriatic that August. “All ridiculous,” Mr. Cohen told The Washington Times. Mr. Schiff has called Mr. Trump the worst president in modern history. He has opposed all efforts by Committee Chairman Devin Nunes, California Republican, to investigate the dossier funding and its use by the FBI.
