      From this you can see how so many people believe the Steele dossier has proven right. Simpson was selling same story, even tho intel from 1st report is clearly NOT intel offered at Trump Tower. https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/_cache/files/3/9/3974a291-ddbe-4525-9ed1-22bab43c05ae/934A3562824CACA7BB4D915E97709D2F.simpson-transcript-redacted.pdf …pic.twitter.com/aHXov4ppao

      This is why Simpson (and virtually all dossier defenders) get so forgetful about dates. Bc the hack was already public before the first Steele report, not the second one.pic.twitter.com/lColFoCGd8

      Oh. This actually is fairly damning in a way I'll write up later (but allude to in this post). https://www.emptywheel.net/2017/10/25/democrats-continue-to-score-massive-own-goals-with-steele-dossier/ … And note how Simpson's forgetfulness about dates has been cured?pic.twitter.com/6WTz3KrqlE

      He and his lawyer seemed very vague and foggy about R client; (Singer). Dates, etc. because his hedge fund still a client?

      Good question. Where he remembers stuff and where he doesn't is ... not very convincing.

          Not sure I 100% buy beacon was the real client

          Me neither. No reason on goddess' earth he'd be claiming Beacon gets more privilege protection than Baker Hostetler's real legal work. None.

          Separately, not sure I believe Papdoupolois via australian was the FBI's internal source;

          One time australian tip would not seem to warrant what Simpson said FBI told Steele.

          I agree. I think it merely corroborated mounting evidence.

          Curious if that story cover to protect real ID of alleged source or i guess should be taken at face value;

          My guess is they don’t wish to burn anyone. Interesting situation to say the least. Admin. Is privy to essentially all intel. unless DOJ can keep it under wraps due to target.
