One item has Trump's lawyer (mentioned by name) in a secret meeting in Europe on a specific date, and he has been independently verified as at USC with his son on that day.

As a few pieces are disproven, it is casting doubt on the whole.

We know that there are SEVERAL sources that say this is valid, now.

The media is still covering some elements of it:

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-38589427

And the former MI6 agent is not the only source for the claim about Russian kompromat on the president-elect. Back in August, a retired spy told me he had been informed of its existence by "the head of an East European intelligence agency".

We know the Hand of McCain was at work, too:
