      I'm asking you for a single one from that article. Again, what it shows is that the CENTRAL ALLEGATIONS against Page are, if he is to be believed, FALSE. Which is the opposite of truth, in case you're catching up.

      Ok. Here you go. This goes more in depth in terms of items mentioned in the dossier that later proved true, notably Russia’s hacking efforts to influence the election.http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/jurisprudence/2017/09/a_lot_of_the_steele_dossier_has_since_been_corroborated.html …

      And here's the very lengthy piece where I point out that ESPECIALLY wrt hacking, that piece is a shitshow and ALSO violates key rules about evidence wrt intel analysis. https://www.emptywheel.net/2017/09/06/john-siphers-garbage-post-arguing-the-steele-dossier-isnt-garbage/ …

      No. I pointed to a piece that laid out a side by side chronology that showed that IN EVERY SINGLE hack-and-leak post the dossier trailed actual events, often by months.

      What is the source of your timeline, upon which your entire argument hinges? Hacking wasn’t widely reported until January of 2017, yet you are claiming this was public knowledge much earlier than the 6-months prior timeline of the dossier.

You should definitely check out the first one. It'll rattle your brain.

      This first link is the dossier, itself. I’m asking you where your timeline is coming from, given your allegations that this information was public “months” before the details in the dossier.

      Replying to @B_Delach @emptywheel and

      The second link (Daily Beast) is incredibly vague, and hardly constitutes “widespread coverage of Russian hacking.” It seems to me are you trying really hard to connect dots that aren’t necessarily correlated — or weren’t at the time.

      The other one, btw, is what FBI expected DNC to find when they told them, around the time report came out and was widely reported, to Google "the Dukes."

      But you realize you're now saying, "Golly, that crack MI6 agent shouldn't be expected to do as thorough a job as using The Google or asking actual cybersecurity experts"?

          I’m not saying that at all and that is an obvious strawman. Obviously, any intelligence agent or journalist should be held to incredibly high standards. My point is merely that I see little to no evidence refuting anything substantial in the dossier.

          Remember: You are trying to prove that SOMETHING, some one thing (things that weren't publicly reported, like Page's trip) has proven true.

          Replying to @emptywheel @sphericaltime and

          Yes. The dossier was the first mention of widespread Russian meddling in the election. That has been proven true. Steele couldn’t have known about that through public sources prior to June of 2016. Russia’s efforts to undermine NATO in this manner was not publicly known.

          YOU ARE BATSHIT CRAZY. Steele's first report was June 20. The WaPo had a very big story on June 14 that said RUSSIANS HACKED DNC. Which is why the Steele dossier is so stupid.

          Said in all caps, undermining the point. Has Trump taught you nothing? People who type in all caps tend to immediately discredit themselves. Link this WaPo article.

          No. As a little exercise in critical thinking let's see if you can find it yourself. Go ahead! I've told you the outlet, subject, date. Hint: Use Crowdstrike too.

          And it’s fair to say that the burden of proof is on the accuser (Steele), but as the intelligence community takes it seriously, one wonders why the rest of us should not.
