One item missing from Carter's timeline should be David Corn's October 31, 2016 Mother Jones article quoting Steele, published a few weeks after Steele met an FBI agent in Rome and the same day the FBI was granted a FISA warrant to spy on Page: David Corn and the Roots of the Fusion GPS Trump Frame-up. Of no minor importance here is Corn's working relationship with Isikoff, who also figures into the timeline.

November 3, 2016: Despite multiple offers to help the Trump campaign, Halper suggests that Clinton would be the better candidate, as reported by Sputnik Russian news.

You raise a good point, namely how deep was Corn involved in this whole Dossier hoax.

String along with me for a minute - Corn - wrote for the Nation for many years, from the far left. The Nation has been run by Katrina van Den Heuvel for decades, she being a protégé of Communist Party sympathizer cover-up operative, Victor Navasky (”Naming Names” book covering up the CPUSA’s attempts to control Hollywood and establish their own “blacklist”).

She is married to retired professor Steven F. Cohen (NYU and Princeton), who has been called, in an early 1980’s Wash. Post article, the “top Soviet apologist in the US”.

Cohen has Soviet contacts up the yingyang all the way up thru the Kremlin leader. His writings always were anti-US policy and tried to portray the Soviets as really afraid of American policies and a possible invasion or missile attack.

Navasky succeeded identified CPUSA organizer and longtime member Carey McWilliams (since the 30’s).

Line-up to Isikoff: - CORN (The Nation/Yahoo), Cohen/van Den Heuvel, Navasky, McWilliams. All reds or longtime communist sympathizers and coverup writers.
CORN has never changed his spots so what is Isikoff, if he is a legitimate writer, doing with this guy?

Also: Isikoff and Mark Hosenball; Hosenball and Philip Agee (DGI - Cuban Secret Police run by the KGB).

Do I detect a couple of common threads running through these associations?

Add in everyone connect to Fusion GPS (Ohrs), DNC, Steele, Perkins Coie (wouldn’t trust that law firm if they were the last lawyers alive). I believe AG Holder and other Obamites were associated with them, esp. with Marc Elias.

I love conspiracy theories, esp. when they are true.

Have to add MOTHER JONES magazine to CORN’s background lineage after leaving The Nation.

Mother Jones was an old creation of the remnants of SDS/NAM and a few unaffiliated Marxists to serve as a mouthpiece for a revitalized Marxist Left. They were even further to the Left than “The Progressive”, the journalistic home of Marxist leader Sidney Lens and others.

Da vid Corn is a VILE creature...Isikoff is your typical nasty Democrat!!
