Uh. Better fact checks please. The RU investigation is not based on Steele dossier. But CI investigation into Trump campaign DID post-date earliest reports from Steele (which hadn't been shared w/FBI yet).https://twitter.com/jimsciutto/status/1024713463304740865 …

Papadopolous bragging happened a month before Steele's first report, as you know. That FBI heard about it after Steele's first report is a rather arbitrary way to debunk "began before". But I'll leave your timeline and your ego alone.

Hi. Do you know how the FBI works? THey open investigations formally. Which means they can be traced to a date in time and predicating evidence. The DATE that the investigation was opened post-dated the DATE the dossier started. Sciutto's was an inaccurate tweet.

[Passive aggressive feigned politeness] The investigation started based on a tip about an event that happened before Steele's first report. That was the point being made - there are two chains of causality and the Papadopoulos one existed before the Steele one.

Huh. And yet that's not what the tweet said, so by your own description it is factually false, which was my point. Thanks for proving yourself wrong! Next time try to do it w/o my wasting my time.
