Christopher Steele: Defamation case against dossier author dismissed

A judge in Washington DC has dismissed a lawsuit against an ex-British spy who compiled a dossier alleging links between Donald Trump and the Kremlin. Christopher Steele was sued by three Russian oligarchs who claimed he defamed them by writing that they tried to influence the 2016 US election.Defamation case against Christopher Steele dismissed - BBC News

Lots of courtroom action today- this, Manafort jury, and whatever is going on down on Pearl St in the SDNY- Cohen plea deal announcement. maybe?

Imagine that.

More bad news for Trumplikins.

Wonder if our host will bring this up today?

Also, does anybody know why our host says that Steele dismissed the veracity of his raw intelligence, when in fact he did no such thing?

Just optics to protect Fat Dip ■■■■ Donnie?

Deep state!!!

It’s especially strange that our host would say that Steele has said “it may be 50-50”, when he has been quoted as saying that his confidence in his intel sources leads him to believe it is 70-90% accurate.

What possible reason would our host have for not properly quoting Mr. Steele?

Mr. Steele himself was quoted in a book by Guardian journalist Luke Harding, offering his assessment that 70-90% of the dossier is accurate.
