Excellent. Thx, Cboldt.
So they had other troubling issues that required investigation, such as the issues surrounding the FBIs paid stooge Page who was posing as Trump campaign official.
Isn’t the first bullet misleading (that because the FBI did not receive the Steele dossier until Sept 2016 it did not inform the start of the investigation). I thought Steele met with the FBI in early July 2016, even before they were aware of what Popadopolis had blurbed in a bar months earlier (that Russia may have Crooked’s deleted emails). The Aussie’s didn’t bring it up to the US until Wikileaks started publishing the hacked DNC emails later in July.
So far I’ve only read the first 2 pages, but several things occur to me:
1. Release on a Saturday!? That’s even worse than releasing on a Friday for it to get lost in the shuffle and ignored. Interesting tactical move.
2. Guess: Trump team must be ready to start the takedown if he let this out now. I’m betting that Trump controlled the timing at any rate and it will be to his/our advantage.
3. Guess 2: This will be used as rope to hang its authors.
