So now you’re saying Russians knew of the Steele’s work before David’s piece in MoJo, is that it?

Sigh. You can refer back to this thread, INCLUDING your own accusations, to answer that. I can't hold your hand for EVERY little detail.

So in your mind a veteran intelligence officer is an imbecile who’ll peddle a half-completed report to the media & endanger his sources,

You actually haven't read the (sworn) public record about the dossier, have you?

You begin by saying that RU was made aware by David’s report, then say they were aware before, and then say they made changes after the fact

Nonono, silly. I said it was possible Russians fed disinformation to Steele's sources. That was possible at any time, most likely after Corn

For YOU to dismiss the possibility, you have to argue RUs are too stupid to read Corn and figure things out. Of course, that's stupid.

And you believe Christopher Steele is an imbecile who didn’t factor this & was risking his sources after his work was exposed in the media
