Man Behind Trump "Dossier" Subpoenaed After Refusing To Testify, Will Plead The Fifth

Man Behind Trump "Dossier" Subpoenaed After Refusing To Testify, Will Plead The Fifth

For all the talk of obstruction and interference by the Trump camp, it's neither Donald Trump Jr. nor Paul Manafort who are challenging their scheduled testimony in the Senate next Wednesday, but rather the man who according to many started the whole "Trump Russia collusion" narrative, who is doing everything in his power to avoid testifying next week.

FUSION GPS head Glenn Simpson won't testify before Senate Judiciary next week, his rep attacks "partisan" hearing and vows to plead Fifth

On Friday, attorneys for Glenn Simpson, a former WSJ reporter who now runs the infamous Washington political intelligence firm Fusion GPS - best known for compiling the salacious "dossier" of unverified research about President Trump - told the Senate Judiciary Committee in a letter that their client was on vacation through July 31 and traveling abroad through August 3, and would be unavailable for next week’s hearing. Perhaps for writers of opposition research fiction, vacations take precedence over being summoned to Congress.

POLITICS SEPTEMBER 6, 2017
Fusion GPS Glenn Simpson Refused to Answer Senate Questions on ‘Trump Dossier’

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, wanted to know if Steele was paid by Simpson’s firm Fusion GPS the dossier and FBI for the investigation of then-candidate Trump and his associates. Reports indicate the discredited dossier was used by former fired FBI Director James Comey to justify the anti-Trump probe, and allegedly offered him $50,000.

Mr. Comey considered the dossier so important that he insisted it be included in January’s final Intelligence Community Report on Russian meddling in the election. In fact, the debunked dossier was used as evidence when the FBI obtained a FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act) warrant to monitor Carter Page, a low-level adviser to the Trump campaign.

Chairman Grassley hauled Mr. Simpson up to Capitol Hill after catching him in a lie about his availability. Mr. Levy, Mr. Simpson’s lawyer, had claimed he was unavailable and traveling overseas when the subpoena was issued on July 21.

However, Fox News found him at an Aspen security conference.

“Mr. Simpson told Congress the truth and cleared the record on many matters of interest to congressional investigators,” Fusion representative Tracy Schmaler said in a previous statement. “He also kept the identities of Fusion GPS’ clients confidential…Fusion GPS honors that commitment without exception – just as law firms and businesses do all over the country.”

Bill Browder, the CEO and co-founder of Hermitage Capital, publicly before the Senate Judiciary Committee in July that Fusion GPS was hired to conduct a smear campaign against Sergei Magnitsky and himself. Mr. Magnitsky, a Russian attorney and auditor, was tortured and murdered after he uncovered a money-laundering scheme in Russia.

The Justice Department (DOJ) alleged Prevezon Holdings, a company run by Russian businessman Denis Katsyv, benefited from the felonious scheme and targeted them in a civil asset forfeiture case. Mr. Katsyv retained Natalia Veselnitskaya, the very same woman and Russian attorney who sought a meeting at Trump Tower with Donald Trump Jr., his brother-in-law Jared Kushner and then-presidential campaign manager Paul Manafort.

In other words, Fusion GPS was working in support of Russian efforts to repeal the Magnitsky Act.

Mr. Browder also testified that he suspects Fusion GPS gives “incentives” to journalists who push stories for their “smear campaigns.” Senate Democrats initially used a rarely used parliamentary rule in an effort to block his testimony the day before.

The Obama Administration’s Uranium One Scandal
Not only the Clintons are implicated in a uranium deal with the Russians that compromised national-security interests. Let’s put the Uranium One scandal in perspective: The cool half-million bucks the Putin regime funneled to Bill Clinton was five times the amount it spent on those Facebook ads — the ones the media-Democrat complex ludicrously suggests swung the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump.

The Facebook-ad buy, which started in June 2015 — before Donald Trump entered the race — was more left-wing agitprop (ads pushing hysteria on racism, immigration, guns, etc.) than electioneering. The Clintons’ own long-time political strategist Mark Penn estimates that just $6,500 went to actual electioneering. (You read that right: 65 hundred dollars.) By contrast, the staggering $500,000 payday from a Kremlin-tied Russian bank for a single speech was part of a multi-million-dollar influence-peddling scheme to enrich the former president and his wife, then–secretary of state Hillary Clinton.

At the time, Russia was plotting — successfully — to secure U.S. government approval for its acquisition of Uranium One, and with it, tens of billions of dollars in U.S. uranium reserves. Here’s the kicker: The Uranium One scandal is not only, or even principally, a Clinton scandal. It is an Obama-administration scandal.
