CNBC Debate Exec Steel Was Close Clinton, Democratic Aide with Multiple Ties

The CNBC executive on site at the Republican debate hosted by CNBC last month was a guy named Brian Steel. What is so special about Steel?, according to Red State

Brian Steel worked in Bill Clinton’s White House as a domestic policy adviser to Vice President Al Gore.

Brian Steel worked in Bill Clinton’s White House as a domestic policy adviser to Vice President Al Gore.
His White House gig was  one of three jobs that he held in the Clinton administration. He also worked in Clinton’s Department of Justice, where he served as Deputy Assistant Attorney General for Policy Development, and also worked as the associate director of the department’s Office of Public Affairs.

Not only was Steel a high ranking official in the Clinton administration, his wife is a 'maxed out' Hillary 2016 donor.
But that’s not the only connection Steel has to the Clintons. Steel is married to Eileen Libutti, who is amanaging partner at New York City law firm Lewis Johs Avallone Aviles LLP. Libutti has donated $2,700 — the maximum contribution — to Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign.  
In further checking, TV Newser reported that Steel had announced his impending resignation as PR executive aftere eight years at CBNC but gave no indication when the change would take place, obviously it would be after the Debate, at which he was, reported, present.
