BUSTED: Maddow reveals senators were lying when they said British ‘dossier’ spy refused to meet with them

Snip........

In her opening report Thursday, MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow explained that the vast majority of the things in the dossier have been proven correct. What is left to be proven, obviously, are the more salacious personal details. Her example was that the dossier claimed Russia was behind the hack of the DNC, which was eventually proven correct. Similarly, months before it was proven that President Donald Trump and the Trump Organization sought to build a Trump Tower Moscow project, the dossier revealed it. Long before there was proof that Russian government sources offered derogatory information about Hillary Clinton to the Trump campaign directly, Steele had the information in his dossier.

“So, a lot of this he did dead right,” Maddow said. “A lot of this that seemed nuts when we read this published in January. Since then it has been reported out and proven.”

Snip.....

Maddow brought up the press conference with the Senate Intelligence Committee‘s Richard Burr (R-NC) and Mark Warner (D-VA). They revealed in their press conference Wednesday that they were able to investigate many things about the Russia scandal except for the dossier. In that case, they’ve hit a brick wall. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) has even said that anyone citing the dossier is outright wrong and should be held accountable.

The new reporting, according to Maddow is that Steele, through an associate, told members of Congress he’d be happy to talk to them. That contradicts both Grassley and Burr’s claims. So, it came as new to Steele that the senators couldn’t meet with him, because he offered to and was waiting until they could agree on a date.

1. that was Burr and Grassley . not Warner

but i think Warner isn't saying much since they control the senate.

5. No, Warner is not saying much, but he is nodding his head

I am not going to give him a pass, maybe he hasn't been involved in the "calling" to Steele, but he should know the facts and by nodding his head he is corroborating what Burr is saying. In my book, they are both lying.

9. It was Burr and Warner

I watched the whole press conference. They both talked and both agreed and nodded with everything each other said.

2. The biggest things left unproven are the claims of Russians paying for hacking,

the "brokerage" of the sale of 19% of Rosneft, and the claims of bribery and corruption engaged in by DT in countries outside of Russia.
