Fusion GPS told media of Trump-Russia claims, but did not verify dossier: source


Fusion GPS told media of Trump-Russia claims, but did not verify dossier: source | Fox News

" The co-founder of the firm behind the anti-Trump ‘dossier’ told House investigators Tuesday that he personally discussed with members of the media allegations of Trump-Russia collusion, though he did not speak to the sources behind the claims, a source told Fox News.

According to a source familiar with the matter, Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson refused to answer key questions during his seven-hour, closed-door appearance before the House Intelligence Committee. The source said he would not answer questions on his relationship with specific journalists or ties to the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton campaign, which financed the anti-Trump research via the law firm Perkins Coie.

But the source said Simpson acknowledged he did not personally look into certain aspects of the dossier -- which was authored by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele and contained salacious allegations about the Trump team’s ties to Russia."

Fusion GPS shopped a unverified dossier, payed for by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the DNC to media outlets ?? Go figure. And to think this dossier was most likely the basis for a FBI investigation and surveillance and unmasking

It is both interesting and alarming that as bad as the so-called journalists are they took a pass on this because it was so obviously bad and unfair, but the FBI took it seriously.
