There is a reason that every reference to him calls him "the primary subsource." That means he is the most central figure other than the anti-Trump British spy who openly admits that Democrats hired him to frame President Trump.
Try again.
The funny thing is the DoJ doesn't refer to him as the "primary subsource." You should really not rely on the media when the actual documents are readily available.

Since the DoJ doesn't refer to him as "the primary subsource" your claim that every reference to him uses those terms is false. It seems to be you that should try again.
"When Inspector General Michael Horowitz testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, he confirmed the FISA applications the FBI used in their investigation into the Trump campaign were based "entirely" on the Steele Dossier
Horowitz added the FBI admitted the dossier "'pushed the FISA proposal over the line' in terms of establishing probable cause and we concluded that the Steele reporting played a central and essential role in the decision to seek a FISA order."
Journalists Still Defending Steele Dossier or Its Role Even After Release of IG's Report
Anything else you'd like to be caught blatantly lying about or are you good for now?
LOL. It seems you don't know the most basic of facts. Crossfire Hurricane was initiated in July of 2016. The FISA applications did not occur until October of 2016.
Once again, original sources would tell you that instead of relying on a RW news source telling you what the OIG testified under partisan questioning about the facts of the report. Why not just go straight to the OIG report and look at the facts.

the FBI opened Crossfire Hurricane on July 31, 2016
...
As we describe in the report, all
of the investigative actions taken by the Crossfire
Hurricane team, from the date the case was opened on
July 31 until October 21 (the date of the first FISA
order) would have been permitted whether the case
was opened as a Preliminary or Full Investigation.
Are you claiming there was no investigation from July until October? Or are you claiming that it wasn't a hoax until October?
Then the OIG report shows that the FBI was considering a FISA application prior to receiving the Steele dossier.
We determined that the Crossfire Hurricane
team's receipt of Steele's election reporting on
September 19, 2016 played a central and essential role
in the FBI's and Department 's decision to seek the FISA
order. As noted above, when the team first sought to
pursue a FISA order for Page in August 20 1 6, a decision
was made by OGC, or, or both that more information
was needed to support a probable cause finding that
Page was an agent of a foreign power.
Can you give us an actual source for your claim that the FISA application was based entirely on the Steele documents? A media interpretation of testimony isn't actually evidence that it happened. Surely you can provide a link to Horowitz' testimony.
I am curious as to who you think was still working for the Trump campaign at the time a FISA warrant was issued to investigate them.
Carter Page left the Trump campaign in September of 2016. The FISA warrant wasn't issued until October. There was never a FISA warrant issued for anyone actually working on the Trump campaign at the time of the warrant.
So, that's a yes, you WOULD like to be caught in more blatant lies. Hillary-funded Steele and Simpson spoon-fed the misinformation to Bruce Ohr at DOJ, who spoon-fed it to FBI. This process was designed to launder outright falsehoods into something that looked like legitimate FBI intelligence.
Once again, you didn't read original documents. According to the OIG report the Steele dossier was not given to the FBI until Sept 19, 2016. The investigation was opened on July 31, 2016. Simpson testified he didn't meet with Ohr until after the election (
https://docs.house.gov/meetings/IG/IG00/20180118/106796/HMTG-115-IG00-20180118-SD002.pdf) and the meeting occurred on Dec 10, 2016 according to notes Ohr took that day and testimony to Congress.

Do you EVER tell the truth?
It seems to be you that is playing loose with the facts. What do you allege is the time frame of what you claim is the Russian hoax? The OIG report clearly states:
As we describe in Chapter Three, the FBI
opened Crossfire Hurricane on July 31, 2016, just days
after its receipt of information from a Friendly Foreign
Government (FFG) reporting that, in May 2016, during
a meeting with the FFG, then Trump campaign foreign
policy advisor George Papadopoulos "suggested the
Trump team had received some kind of suggestion from
Russia that it could assist this process with the
anonymous release of information during the campaign
that would be damaging to Mrs. Clinton
At least you've finally improved from outright falsehoods to deliberately misleading distortions.
The same day Comey was standing in front of the country identifying more than a hundred separate felonies Hillary committed while also announcing that nothing would ever be done about any of it (7/5/16), he had one of his agents meeting with Steele in London, spoon-feeding him the Hillary-funded Russia hoax. Steele then used that to justify gathering the rest of the "evidence" that was then spoon-fed back to the FBI as legitimate foreign intelligence.
OK. Your evidence for this meeting is what? Considering Steele wasn't hired until June and the report itself didn't make it to the FBI until Sept, how did Comey know to send an agent to London to meet with him?
Democrats don't read, think, or comprehend anything on more than a 5th grade intellectual level. This is why complex misinformation laundering schemes like this are easy for scumbags and scam-artists like yourself to manipulate them with.
Jr high attempt to attack your opponent and not deal with the topic. Let me know when you have actually read the sources I linked to and then we can discuss as adults or you can continue to run from the facts.
Try again.
And again, since you like to respond to every claim with 150 new claims and try to take over every thread, I will only respond to your first five lies each time. Stop trying to hijack the thread or be disregarded.
Let me know when you want to deal with actual facts. I support my claims with actual testimony or government documents. You seem to rely on RW media as your sources.
