Ross Douthat had an excellent column in the New York Times on Sunday about the state of the Trump-Russia investigation. He homed in on the Steele dossier and its four major claims (or, as he put it, the four “big possibilities” it raised). On the matter of Russia’s culpability for hacking the DNC emails published by WikiLeaks, Steele was just following the crowd. Rather, after events occurred, Steele wove them into the Democrats’ Trump-Russia conspiracy narrative. It is well known in Western intelligence circles that WikiLeaks is, at least in part, a willing agent of Russian intelligence.
