There is no "Clinton campaign", and hasn't been since November 9, 2016.

Well, that, the US intelligence community assessment that Russia interfered
in the election -- an assessment which was not based on the dossier -- and
the fact that multiple people in the Trump campaign were less than honest
about their contacts with agents of the Russian government and Russian
businessmen.

Steele's work was originally funded by an un-named Republican candidate.
And after funding from the Democrats ended, Steele thought that his findings
were so important that he continued to work on the document without outside
funding.

But they didn't used the dossier during the election campaign? How odd.

And some of them have gone missing, at least one has turned up dead, and one
had a sack put over his head before he was dragged out of a meeting in a
government office.

If it is Russian disinformation, you'd have thought that some of it would
have been proven false by now.

Nothing significant has been disproved, either.

Ha. You may have missed it, given the flood of leaks from the White House,
but Mueller doesn't leak, and neither does anyone working for him ... any
information about what Mueller's investigation has been up to has come from
outside sources.

Again, there is no "Clinton campaign", and hasn't been since November 9,
2016.

There seems to be an organized campaign against Steele's dossier, and the
Mueller investigation ... makes you wonder what people are so afraid of.
