      I just Googled Steele Dossier and apparently he's a real actor who goes by the name Christopher Steele . He's played the role of counterintelligence man (I think that means he's the opposite of intelligent? ) . Prior to this Babylon Bee short he was best known for accepting a contract from none other than the wife of Monica Lewinskys boyfriend! I'm glad to see he's taking on less taboo scandalist roles.

Just as comedy does in other contexts, this tool of mockery communicates truth by other means that words aren't physical violence (in very specific instances, words can be used to incite violence but that's still different), that men can't be women, etc...and paroding the noir genre of film is just fun and hilarious.

      @@aspirecan4829 that's why he was the detective and she was just a minimum wage secretary. She should have been smart enough to check his wallet and drawers too. The drawers in the desk I'm talking about. If she has kept her job for any length of time, I'm sure she's checked his other drawers before. She needs to go back to school and get her GED so she'll be smarter and not make the same mistakes next time her boss gets bumped off.
