The Senate Judiciary Committee released a heavily redacted document on Monday in which Republicans claim the author of the infamous anti-Trump 'dirty dossier' gave the FBI a second memo about the president's Russia contacts.

The infamous dossier, compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele, was funded by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

The Judiciary Committee's document confirms that the second memo was the result of coordination between Steele, a longtime Clinton fixer, and an Obama State Department official.

Christopher Steele, the author of the infamous anti-Trump 'dirty dossier,' gave the FBI a second memo about the president's Russia contacts according to top Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee

Longtime Clinton family confidant Cody Shearer allegedly wrote the document and passed it to Steele via an Obama State Department official

Committee chair Chuck Grassley and fellow Republican member Lindsey Graham asked the Justice Department last month to investigate whether Steele lied to the FBI about 'the distribution of claims contained in the dossier.'

The document released Monday is a declassified version of that criminal referral.

Buried in the referral is the revelation that Steele's second memo was based on information from a foreign source who sent it to him through an unnamed Clinton confidant and an Obama State Department official.

The Guardian reported last week that Steele gave the result to the FBI in October 2016.

President Trump, seen on his way to Ohio on Monday, has denied all claims that he or his campaign aides colluded with Russians in the 2016 election

The larger dossier also ended up in the hands of the FBI. According to a House Intelligence Committee memo released Friday, the Justice Department used it to justify a Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act warrant against former Trump adviser Carter Page.

Former Obama-era State Department official Jonathan Winer

Published reports in The Washington Post and the Guardian suggest that the middle-men were Clinton associate Cody Shearer and former State Department official Jonathan Winer.

Winer was deputy assistant secretary of state for international law enforcement, and the U.S. Special Envoy for Libya.

Shearer is a longtime Clinton family operative whose brother was a Bill Clinton-era ambassador and whose late sister married Clinton State Department official Strobe Talbott.

He was tied closely to Hillary Clinton-whisperer Sidney Blumenthal during Clinton's tenure as secretary of State, collecting intelligence in Libya that Blumenthal would pass on to the future Democratic presidential nominee.

The criminal referral unveiled Monday is heavily redacted, with large sections blacked out for public release.

A Grassley spokesman said Monday that some of the redactions include 'verbatim quotes' from the DOJ's secret applications to the FISA court.

'Specifically, the referral quotes the government's description of Steele's statements to the FBI about his contacts with the media.'
