Following the money continues as Individual-1 says "I never did anything wrong"
"(2018)
"So far, the release of transcripts of Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson’s interviews with the House Intelligence and Senate Judiciary committees have provided rich detail to obsessives but few major headlines for the average reader.
"The interviews give some more clarity on how Fusion came to investigate Donald Trump; who was paying the company; and how it gathered information, but they offer much help in assessing the Trump dossier.
"Perhaps the most interesting thread is Simpson’s suggestion that the Trump Organization could have been used by Russians to launder money—an arrangement that would have both allowed Kremlin-linked figures to scrub cash and would have created possible blackmail material over the now-president, since the Russian government would be aware that a crime had been committed."

Are we still wondering who paid for the dossier?
Well, we know Republicans started the dossier investigation and paid for the first part of it. After they dropped out - the Democrats took it over and paid for the completion.And Mueller's footnotes may provide some fresh perspective on the Steele Dossier's role in launching the investigation of Donald Trump:Well, we know Republicans started the dossier investigation and paid for the first part of it.

What Happens Next with the Mueller Report? The Answer May Lie in the Footnotes
"Volume I
"Footnote 465
"This footnote addresses a question that has been raised time and again, and which was echoed by Attorney General William Barr in his testimony to Congress on April 10: What was the basis, or predicate, for the Russia investigation?
The White House has claimed that the investigation was based on the 'Steele Dossier,' an intelligence report compiled by a former British spy and financed by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC), which alleged that there were ties between Trump and the Kremlin.
"But in this footnote, Mueller explains the sequence and timing of events that gave rise to a credible threat to national security, warranting an investigation.
"First, Mueller notes earlier in the report that in July 2016, Wikileaks began disseminating emails stolen from the DNC.
"A few days later, the U.S. intelligence community assessed with 'high confidence' that the Russian government had orchestrated the hack of these emails.
"Within a week of that release, a foreign government informed the FBI that George Papadopoulos, a foreign policy advisor to the Trump campaign, told a representative of their government that Russia had offered to 'assist the campaign through the anonymous release of information that would be damaging to Hillary Clinton.'
"Mueller states that this information 'is contained in the case-opening document and related materials.'
"This means that it was these facts, not the Steele Dossier, which raised an open question on whether Russia had attempted or was trying to attempt to coordinate with members of the Trump campaign to influence the 2016 presidential campaign and led to the official opening of an investigation."
Right, but I mean, the letter after that created a bunch of confusion, and even his report didnt really stop the debate. I guess in just looking for something concrete, so the final question can be answered to everyoned satisfaction, and we can move forward.I'm waiting to see what Mueller says. I'm wondering if his testimony will answer questions, or create more. Kind of like his report...We don't know. I look forward to Mueller answering that question under oath. What do you think?
Did Barr shutter the Mueller probe?
What I mean by that is, we need answers that are concrete and leave no doubt. After his report, people still were debating the report and nobody could agree. I'd like to see him leave the chambers with no doubt left in peoples minds. Did he think trump was guilty or not.
He didn't try to charge Trump with anything, so apparently not.
I think we will soon find out that not only did Barr do that (the equivalent of firing Mueller) but Rosenstein may have blocked Mueller from getting financial records from Deutsche BankWe don't know. I look forward to Mueller answering that question under oath. What do you think?

Funny. For the umpteenth time - he wasn't allowed to charge Trump according to DOJ policy. Stop repeating the same lying bullshit.

The second should have been reported to Congress a.d probably the first

Hmmm, is there a completed mueller report? Why yes, yes there is. Are you a sentient creature? Hmmm, the jury is out on that.
That doesn't answer the OP question. We don't know if it was "completed". We don't yet know whether Barr ordered Mueller to wrap it up. There remains many unanswered questions.
If the question is answered under oath will the op believe the answer or run around screaming liar liar impeach and persecute?
We don't yet know if Barr stifled the investigation. Hopefully Mueller will tell us.
Stifled it how?
They agreed on the redactions.
Who said they "agreed on the redactions"? Mueller disagreed with Barr's redactions.
Well, we dont know that is why he decided not to charge trump. That's the question I want answered. Did he refrain because of doj policy, or because he didnt think there was enough to make a charge.I'm waiting to see what Mueller says.

Duh, try reading Mueller's letter to Barr. It's on your computer machine.
What, like your buddy Obama did ??I guess we shouldn't be surprised that Barr is just doing what Trump hired him to do.
