ANALYSIS: The FBI Knew 3 Years Ago That Steele Dossier Had Russian Disinformation -- Somehow That Never Leaked dailycaller.com/2020/04/11/ste…
There was a steady barrage of pro-Steele, anti-Trump leaks in 2017 and 2018. CNN reported in Feb. 2017 that parts of dossier were corroborated. WaPo's report on the existence of the FISA was meant to bolster the collusion theory.

Somehow, the truth of the matter never leaked.
CNN created a feedback loop based on spin from gov't sources who insisted that the FBI wouldn't have used the Steele dossier for FISA without first validating it. That faulty logic guided most Steele dossier analysis for the next 2 years. cnn.com/2017/04/18/pol…

Trying to figure out what's the craziest revelation in FISA footnotes. Russian intel knowing Steele was looking into Trump in *July 2016* is huge.

So is FBI receiving intel that the Cohen info was bunk on 1/12/17, two days after dossier was published. dailycaller.com/2020/04/15/ste…
Instead of somehow communicating that the dossier had major problems, the FBI withheld that information from the public, Congress and the FISA Court.

The first hint of doubt about the Cohen story was in Mueller team's subtle pushback of the McClatchy story in April 2018.
Mueller's office broke its usual silence and shared that little tidbit with @peterjhasson and I. dailycaller.com/2018/04/16/mic… But there was no indication for another two years about how the Cohen story was wrong (i.e. Russian disinfo)

Trump urged reporters to look into a study showing that lupus patients were protected from coronavirus because of hydroxychloroquine, so I did. dailycaller.com/2020/04/05/tru…
The results were interesting.

Trump seems to have been pushing a study out of Wuhan that Dr. Oz and former Kansas Gov. Jeff Colyer (a plastic surgeon) have been pushing lately.
That seemed like a strike against the study, *but* two prominent rheumatologists said during a Lupus Alliance of America teleconference yesterday that they have observed virtually no lupus patients with coronavirus.

"Quite remarkable," said Dr. Daniel Wallace of Cedars-Sinai.

Dr. Michael Osterholm, the epidemiologist who predicted the current pandemic, blasted WHO in recent podcast, saying he's "incredibly disappointed" in their assessment of the coronavirus threat.

"They set us back a great deal."

dailycaller.com/2020/04/01/mic…
WHO has made a series of stumbles, all of them in deference to the Chinese government.

WHO infamously tweeted on Jan. 14 that there was no evidence of human-to-human transmission.

Dr. Bruce Aylward repeatedly claimed no evidence for asymptomatic cases.
Osterholm, who gained attention from his interview with Joe Rogan, said WHO's assessment provided a false sense of security.

“So we held back on a preparedness, and gave people excuses not to do it.”
