I'm the world's biggest Steele skeptic. But I'm a bigger skeptic of what Roger Stone's associates would be *discovering* at this stage of investigation.https://twitter.com/stranahan/status/1034133688576094209 …

Wow. That's a particularly bad inventory both of what the dossier (rather than claims made afterwards about it) actually said, and all the shit that proved to be wrong.

i am not disagreeing or questioning your analysis, merely asking you to comment on sipher's.

You did not read those links. You could not have.

I think you have to admit for raw intel it has so far been accurate in describing a relationship that dates *actively back to 2013 and evolved into a campaign to elect him president through hacking and disinfo. (Not to mention the whole decades of money laundering for Rus mob)

I see u do address it in ur articles. It is most probable the dossier contained significant&pernicious disinfo...but also true that the most salacious allegations are sop for kompromat on pliable ppl. The inferences suggest there’s lurid stories out there, &in truth they’re worse

Skepticism of the dossier as a verified end-product is wholly warranted, but as a preliminary intelligence report assembled by an experienced agent tapping into a well-established network of informants, it's highly credible.

The biggest reason I believe in its contents is because Steele said some of Putin’s people were getting nervous and may not release anymore info, but if they did, it would be after Duma elections (late Sept). Then 30 mins after Access Hollywood... they release much more
