Note how Rachel doesn't tell us that reporters [Isikoff had already published off the dossier] were already being briefed in September, meaning RU probably knew if not by June 9.

FACT CHECK. No, the first glimpse was the September Isikoff story.

Hmm. By my count we heard about ~6 dossier reports, maybe. Out of 17. Why don't we hear about the other ones?

Another report -- the most dubious one!! -- ignored thus far in TRMS entire hour story on this.

One YUGE problem with the dossier, even assuming Rinat Akhmetshin didn't sabotage it from the start, is that Steele was reporting it out as reporters were too. Bad OpSec.
