Paul Wood just published "Trump Russia dossier key claim 'verified’” in the BBC.
www.bbc.com/...
BBC has learned that US officials "verified" a key claim in a report about Kremlin involvement in Donald Trump's election - that a Russian diplomat in Washington was in fact a spy. ...
At one point he wrote: "A leading Russian diplomat, Mikhail KULAGIN, had been withdrawn from Washington at short notice because Moscow feared his heavy involvement in the US presidential election operation… would be exposed in the media there."
Steele misspelled the name Kalugin. This verification adds credibility to the Christopher Steele dossier.
Wood reports that the FBI had already independently arrived at the same conclusion.
Wood also provides a more detailed description of a theory for how and why Russia and the Trump campaign cooperated.
"You are stealing the stuff and pushing it back into the US body politic," said the former official, "you know where to target that stuff when you're pushing it back."
This would take co-operation with the Trump campaign, it is claimed.
Drip, drip, drip.
