Here it is folks.
The Dossier was written in 2007 by Fusion GPS, Glen Simpson in a Wall Street Journal article.
If you have not read the Dossier, you should. Then read the WSJ article by Glen Simpson. It is the Dossier.

What no one wants to hear, so they have tuned it out.

I can't read the article without subscribing, so have no idea if it actually says what you say it does.

I can't imagine why you don't have a job with the DOJ uncovering all this information for them.

Get on it -- pack up and head to Washington DC so you can help Trump and his folks uncover all this stuff.

They seem to be struggling with it -- .

On a phone? Hmm. I usually try incognito tabs, too. Didn't help in this case.

Free rent in your head, is nothing to write home about.
If only I were the subject of the thread, my ego would explode.

This is the article from the link you posted, I don't see anything regarding a dossier. Maybe you can point out how you came that conclusion from this article that was written over 10 years ago.

How Lobbyists Help Ex-Soviets Woo Washington

Scrubbed Images Open Doors, Assure Investors; A 'Most Wanted' Client

Glenn R. Simpson and Mary Jacoby
Updated April 17, 2007 12:01 a.m. ET


Former Federal Bureau of Investigation director William Sessions once condemned Russia's rising mafia. "We can beat organized crime," he told a Moscow security conference in 1997.
Today, Mr. Sessions is a lawyer for one of the FBI's "Most Wanted": Semyon Mogilevich, a Ukraine-born Russian whom the FBI says is one of Russia's most powerful organized-crime figures.

Mr. Sessions is trying to negotiate a deal with the U.S. Department of Justice for his client, who is charged with racketeering and is a key figure in a separate Justice Department probe of energy deals between Russia and Ukraine.

Glenn Simpson spent years as a writer for the WSJ covering Trump's business dealings. The entire dossier/Mueller investigation was all planned in advance as a way for Mueller to work backwards to Trump business dealings in the 1990's-2000's which Simpson assured the D's would be his downfall. The Mueller investigation was launched for this purpose and as a cover-up to the coup d'etat the D's/FBI/CIA/DOJ attempted. By letting the accused decide what questions to answer and what documents to redact, they've ensured the corruption can not be stopped.

Cool. You didn't happen to run across the name of the second guy on the grassy knoll while you were digging around doing research, did you?

Here's the gist:

Quote:
A number of notable Washington insiders are earning big fees these days by representing controversial clients from the former Soviet Union.

From prominent businessmen -- some facing criminal allegations -- to top politicians, well-known ex-Soviets are lining up to hire help with criminal cases, lobbying and consulting. These figures, many of whom made fortunes in the wide-open 1990s amid the Soviet Union's disintegration, hire Washington insiders to help rehabilitate their reputations in the West or to persuade investors and regulators they are committed to good corporate governance.

Sensitive foreign clients are nothing new for Washington's lobbying industry. Among others, Jack Abramoff -- convicted of fraud and bribery last year -- represented clients in Pakistan and Russia, while former Liberian President Charles Taylor, awaiting trial on war-crimes allegations, once employed his own Washington lobbyist.

But recent years have seen a growing number of former Soviet officials and industrialists seeking assistance in the U.S. capital. Many are playing an increasingly important role in the global economy, as they wrest ever-greater control of Eurasia's vast energy reserves and other natural resources. All have become politically powerful in their home countries as well, making them -- and by extension their U.S. advisers -- key players in Western efforts to promote regional stability.
It then goes on to give examples of who did what.
