One such tidbit is that she believes that the infamous Steele dossier that was used to get FISA warrants to spy on the Trump campaign was a Russian disinformation project.
Essentially she's saying that Steele got played by the Russians.
Think about it a former British spy whose cover was blown manages to talk to dozens of high ranking people in Putin's government without Putin, whose iron grip on the country is infamous, finding out isn't too likely is it?
In addition if Putin's objective was to get Trump elected there is no way he'd allow compromising information about Trump to get in the hands of Hillary Clinton's agent.
A much more likely story, and the one that Fiona Hill believes in, was that Putin tailored what was fed to Steele. Now that could have been done to help Hillary or it could have been done to just taint the election results but that makes more sense than a spy whose identity was known to the Russians being able to contact sources in Russia, without ever going there, who had all this juicy information about Trump.
The fact that more of the dossier has been disproven than proven supports that theory.
