[Editor’s Note: In this special Just Security article, highly respected former member of the CIA’s Senior Intelligence Service, John Sipher examines the Steele dossier using methods that an intelligence officer would to try to validate such information. Sipher concludes that the dossier’s information on campaign collusion is generally credible when measured against standard Russian intelligence practices, events subsequent to Steele’s reporting, and information that has become available in the nine months since Steele’s final report. The dossier, in Sipher’s view, is not without fault, including factual inaccuracies. Those errors, however, do not detract from an overarching framework that has proven to be ever more reliable as new revelations about potential Trump campaign collusion with the Kremlin and its affiliates has come to light in the nine months since Steele submitted his final report.]

They were pretty excited on FOX about the breaking news of the dossier funding, and justifiably so. I clicked on CNN to see what they had to say. The pitch was, “Perhaps the Dems paid for it, but the content was mostly true and backed up by our intelligence agencies.” Plan B.
He’s not related to Louis Sipher is he?
I see what you did there...
Sipher was one of the idiots who claimed the Hunter Biden laptop looked like Russian disinfo.
He and 50 other idiots wrote a letter trying to trash as BS the NY Post’s article on the discovery of the real Hunter Biden laptop in a repair shop.
