Chris Steele refutes key points in DOJ watchdog report on Russia probe

[mfcorey1]

Christopher Steele, the author of the controversial "Steele dossier" and a central figure in the Justice Department inspector general's report on the Russia investigation, says the report included "several serious errors and misstatements."

The former British intelligence officer said in a statement released by his legal team on Tuesday that he was previously given "highly redacted" portions of Inspector General Michael Horowitz's report, which contained "numerous inaccuracies and misleading statements." Steele said his firm Orbis raised objections and provided suggestions but only some of them were reflected in the final report.

1. Because of course they f*cking did.

2. I feel like I need a flow chart to keep all of the characters and accusations straight these days.

Midnight Rider Nunes is heavily involved in the events leading up to this point and it is going to come out.

4. That is exactly what the right is trying to achieve

Chaos causing people to be unsure what to believe

6. It a safe bet if you believe that everything

Trump and the GOP say is a lie.

3. But How Key are Key Points?

I read the link. Steele is concerned for being identified in the report as HUMIT. He stands up for one of his sources, while FBI doubted his source. FBI referenced the Steele Dossier in applying for the FISA warrants. That's about it in my read. I'm thinking that for his business, he needs to clear some this up like the HUMIT part. Won't look good for future clients, I don't know.

We know this much... The Steele Dossier was shown NOT to be part of a Deep State conspiracy.

17. HUMIT?

sorry, I don't speak Acronym!

18. Human Intel Source - Real Person...

So Steele can't look like an info source for the FBI report that is highly political at this point.

5. Hmmm...

Pass the salt, please.

7. I'm reading the Fusion GPS owners' book on all this now.

It's already everything Rachel promised when she said if you read only one book on Trump and Russia, this is the one.

[OnDoutside]

8. It does explain a lot. I never understood the hatred Bill Browder has towards Fusion until this book

[Hortensis]

10. I'm not nearly that far yet, though peripheral

figures are of most interest to me as they enlighten Trump-Russia and Russia-GOP.

[OnDoutside]

14. Have you read Rachel Maddow's Blowout ? I would recommend that too, it explains so much

about the Oil & Gas industry, right up to why Putin is doing what he is doing.

[Hortensis]

15. No. Sounds like I should. Exxon,

Putin, Tillerson had me hopping mad back in 2017. Panadol just got worse.

[OnDoutside]

16. She provides a coherent explanation for why Putin is doing what he's doing, and why the World, led

by the US, need to finally take this crook on, once and for all. Once there's a Democratic President of course.

9. I still can't get the image of Steele boinking Ivanka out of my head. Please pass the...

Could she have been his source for the dossier?

[Arkansas Granny]

11. So, now we're all inflicted with that mental image.

[catbyte]

12. 1001 apologies, Arkansas Granny. And it's so early in the day...

[AwakeAtLast]

13. Well

It's better than the image of her and Jared!
