Contrary to your talking point lies, the Steele Dossier was raw unverified intelligence and was always portrayed that way.
I had a thread on it when Trump was briefed on it.
It was called "Trump given UNVERIFIED reports that Russia had damaging details about him."
And FYI, since then, parts of it have been verified, and none of it has been disproven.
The dossier is actually a series of reports—16 in all—that total 35 pages.
Written in 2016,
the dossier is a collection of raw intelligence.
Steele neither evaluated nor synthesized the intelligence.
He neither made nor rendered bottom-line judgments.
The dossier is, quite simply and by design,
raw reporting, not a finished intelligence product.
