The Steele Dossier: How Does it Hold Up?

[georgephillip]

Published in January of 2017, how much of information made public by Mueller's investigation has buttressed or diminished the essence of Steele's original reporting?

The Steele Dossier: A Retrospective

"The dossier is actually a series of reports—16 in all—that total 35 pages. Written in 2016, the dossier is a collection of raw intelligence. Steele neither evaluated nor synthesized the intelligence.

"He neither made nor rendered bottom-line judgments.

"The dossier is, quite simply and by design, raw reporting, not a finished intelligence product...."

"With that in mind, we thought it would be worthwhile to look back at the dossier and to assess, to the extent possible, how the substance of Steele’s reporting holds up over time.

"In this effort, we considered only information in the public domain from trustworthy and official government sources, including documents released by Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office in connection with the criminal cases brought against Paul Manafort, the 12 Russian intelligence officers, the Internet Research Agency trolling operation and associated entities, Michael Cohen, Michael Flynn and George Papadopoulos.

"We also considered the draft statement of offense released by author Jerome Corsi, a memorandum released by House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Ranking Member Adam Schiff related to the Carter Page FISA applications and admissions directly from certain speakers.

"These materials buttress some of Steele’s reporting, both specifically and thematically.

"The dossier holds up well over time, and none of it, to our knowledge, has been disproven."

I invite any USMB wingnut to show one item that has been proven false, from the Steele Dossier.

That's not going to happen. Trump already made that attempt with Nunez to discredit the dossier with their bogus memo that was a total failure. By the way, has anyone seen Nunez lately?

Wingnuts got their butts kicked over the Dossier. They won't be back with anything more than lies. You can almost set your watch to it. Just wait.

 

[depotoo]

You guys have really lost it.

You guys have really lost it.

See what I mean? Look at this loser saying nothing. Lol!

 

[skye]

You guys have really lost it.

Agree ^^^.....and they lost it when America voted Donald Trump as President!

instead of their favorite witch ....Clinton.

Since then, they have not been able to have a moment of peace.




Thanks GOD for President Donald Trump!

The FBI is on record calling it "scurrilous and unverified"

The two authors of this retrospective appear highly qualified. I don't have any idea of their personal politics or whether that would influence their judgments?

The Steele Dossier: A Retrospective

"Sarah Grant is a student at Harvard Law School and previously spent five years on active duty in the Marine Corps. She holds an MPhil in International Relations from the University of Cambridge and a BS in International Relations from the United States Naval Academy. The views expressed here are her own and do not reflect those of the Department of Defense, the Marine Corps, or any other agency of the United States Government."

"Chuck Rosenberg is a former U.S. attorney, senior FBI official and chief of the Drug Enforcement Administration."

Obviously, a pair of deep state trolls trying to bring down a duly elected POTUS who is at least as honest as the day is long?

Negative! Unverified are the parts that have not been scrutinized. Show us differently from the parts that have been verified.
