Thanks for the context - I didn't really understand you though - why do you say the actual specifics were mostly false, while also saying the Congress investigation verified some parts and couldn't verify others?

There were a large number of allegations in the dossier. So, pulling numbers out of the air, but... say it was something like 70% of the allegations were false, 10% were verified true, and 20% could not be verified as either true or false. As I said, the numbers are made up. But I think the general gist is right - mostly false, a bit true, and some that is unknown. But this is why people say the dossier was discredited - the majority of it was false.

According to Bellingcat[1], Igor Danchenko who was Steeler’s primary source was probably being fed information by the GRU. [1] https://newrepublic.com/article/161913/we-are-bellingcat-spooked-private-investigators https://newrepublic.com/article/161913/we-are-bellingcat-spo...

It is hard to take unverifiable claims seriously when the verifiable ones turn out to be false.
