What really is the relevancy of the released Fusion GPS transcript...?

[nat4900]

The first question that we should all ask ourselves is the WHY the release of this transcript was vehemently opposed by the Trump cultists in the Senate.

Grassley has always been a whore for right wing causes, and he'll probably retire as a whore fairly soon. Grassley even directly threatened Christopher Steele.

But, Graham's opposition is another story. Here is someone with a troubled personal life who has found the senate to be his only life-mate. He WAS a hawk and a McCain shadow; but, unlike McCain he sold out to Trump after a little golfing outing with the orange golfer....Speculations abound.

However, the real relevancy that has surfaced from the excerpts reported, addresses a few nuggets worth mentioning to those Trump defenders:

1. Steele, apparently, cared enough to inform the FBI that there was a strong possibility that Trump was open to Russian blackmail

2. That the FBI found Steele's warming even more relevant because they had a mole within the Trump entourage who ALSO confirmed Steele's allegations.

3. Reports that someone in Russia had been assassinated for possibly sharing information with Steele is also a disturbing revelation.

4. It is also interesting to conclude that although the FBI was "investigating" what was happening in the Trump AND in the Clinton camps during the lead up to the election, the FBI ONLY chose to reveal the existence of such investigations about the Clinton candidacy (in Comey's case, 11 days before the election.)

So, regardless of partisanship leanings, any decent American should question the WHY republicans in the senate felt so compelled to NOT release this testimony transcript and to basically allow the public to judge its validity...........We should all remember that, as in the past, the "cover up" is what ultimately gets elected folks in trouble with those who elected them.

 

[nat4900]

The....... founders of Fusion GPS...... accused congressional Republicans of “selectively” leaking to far-right media outlets details of the firm’s testimony to congressional committees and called for full release of the testimony transcripts “so that the American people can learn the truth about our work and most, important, what happened to our democracy.”

AND here's the pertinent part.....

In their commentary, Simpson and Fritsch said they did not believe the dossier “was the trigger for the F.B.I.’s investigation into Russian meddling. As we told the Senate Judiciary Committee in August, our sources said the dossier was taken so seriously because it corroborated reports the bureau had received from other sources, including one inside the Trump camp.”

Another leftist talking point fails and bites the dust. Remember the Fusion GPS trolls wouldn't appear at their public hearing and insisted on a closed-door appearance but now "suddenly" the transcripts had to be released.

Testimony is released.
No lies.
Except your lies.

 

[Care4all]

Why were Republicans trying to suppress it?

Start there.

Moron, Fusion said they would only testify behind closed doors.

and then asked for the tapes to be released....

why weren't they?

Because Republicans spun a huge web of LIES around GPS and Christopher Steele that they did not want you Trumpsters to know about...

AND now, you trumpsters refuse to recognize the lies of Sen Grassley, and rep jordan and the florida representative and even lindsay graham and FOX and Briebart and Townhall and Daily Caller and Hannity and Rush and so on and so forth with right wng fake news.....

C Steele did not commit a crime by turning over concerning information to the FBI, we encourage people to turn over precisely the type of possibly criminal activity that Steele found....

don junior should have reported to the fbi, the Russian gvt wanting to supply stolen emails with dirt on Hillary, but as steve bannon said, don jr's actions were traitorous or treasonous....

with few exceptions like a place where a meeting took place, or a misspelled name, nothing in the dossier has been proven to be false, so far.

Trump has possibly been compromised, and Russians have the dirt on him for black mail....(not Trump's fault, it is what Russians do best)

Fusion GPS began research on Trump's involvement with Russia because Trump had made several proposed deals with Russia and made several trips there, with no deals ever made....why was that?)

in that search for information they found all kinds of possibly criminal behavior and in the least disturbing behavior by Trump's campaign team

They also found possible money laundering by Trump, for Russian Oligarchs in real estate through Duetsche Bank, Trump's Bank and also major money launderer for the Russians, who was recently caught and fined big time for it....

Fus GPS did NOT PAY any Russians for the information Steele collected, that's another right wing made up out of the clear blue...LIE.

Steele did not know who hired GPS for the research....another right wing LIE when they said Steele worked for Hillary to find dirt on Trump....

And many any more lies of the Republicans were exposed in the release of the document.

Top Senate Judiciary Democrat releases transcript of Fusion GPS interview

Multiple places:

1. Steele went to Rome, gets debriefed by the FBI, and learns in the debriefing that the FBI, in September 2016, has a "voluntary" source inside the Drumpf campaign. So this means the Fusion GPS Steele Dossier did not prompt the FBI investigation. We can speculate that the voluntary source inside the Drumpf campaign was most likely George Papadopolous. (Transcript pages 175-176)
   
   
2. Simpson was handed Manafort's contemporaneous notes from the June 9, 2016 Drumpf Tower meeting with the Russians. In those notes is a reference to a Cypriot holding company to engage in inward investment into Russia, along with the note "active sponsors of the RNC," Dick Cheney's press secretary, and finally, adoptions. The rot seems to infect the GOP as well as Drumpf, making this a larger criminal conspiracy and would explain why Republicans were trying to levy criminal accusations against Steele and Simpson - they were uncovering that the conspiracy didn't stop at Drumpf. (Transcript pages 261-264)
   
   
3. Carter Page lost money with the Russians, was really mad about sanctions, and apparently had been an espionage suspect under investigation by the FBI FOR YEARS preceding the election. (Transcript pages 240-242)
   
   
4. Fusion GPS concluded early in their investigation that Drumpf has serious ties to Russian organized crime, including money in his companies from "Kazakhstan, among other places, and that some of it you just couldn't account for." (Transcript pages 67-70)
   
   
5. The very first memo within the dossier discusses that Drumpf and his inner circle accepted a regular flow of intelligence from the Kremlin. (Transcript pages 154-155)

Again, start there.

 

[The Original Tree]

The best thing about this whole thing is how it shows how these douchebags not only got paid to make shit up and used Russian Propaganda, but it also shows how they tried to frame The Trump Campaign by sending their contractor Natalia Big Vagina to Trump Tower while Obama wiretapped the whole meeting.

I say, let's also release Obama's wiretaps on The Trump Campaign. You know if they were damaging they would have been released during the campaign. This is why President Trump has repeatedly stated that there is NOTHING THERE.

NO COLLUSION

Unless you are talking about Putin, Obama, Clinton and their moles in the FBI and DOJ that worked feverishly to rig an election then stage a coup.

So when are the 'russians' going to release all the blackmail stuff they have on Trump? You idiots now claim the russians have been 'grooming' Trump for years.
Now the russians have their mole in the White house who they can blackmail into doing anything.
How about all those 'sanctions' Trump was supposed to lift????????
President Trump has INCREASED!!!!! the sanctions you moron!

You're making it to easy.
But that's OK.
Good job!

I like the part on 159 about the threat of Trump being blackmailed by the Russians.
