I'm guessing that you don't really believe that enough to have made a single preparation for a war occurring. Oh wait, you posted on-line....you're all set! Seriously, if you have "little doubt", what have you done?

Really, it's just sad hearing posters complain (correctly) about Trumps lies and bluster....but then believe him when he goes on a twitter deflection rampage.

Senator Grassely said if Fusion had no objection, he would release it.

Since Fusion has no objection, where is it?

Nothing is stopping Fusion from talking to the media and telling them all that was said in the hearings.
So why isn't GPS Fusion spilling their guts to the media ?

This is key, what exactly are the republicans trying to hide here. They could redact secret information, so it must be they simply don't want to know. If i thought for a second the Repubs were trying to really investigate i might think they did not want to damage Mueller's investigation or might be concerned with altering/swaying public opinion in an unfair way.. But they have leaked bits and pieces of information that supports Trump so cleary the repubs on the committee are fine with influencing and altering public opinion.

thus what are the Repubs hiding here and is there any law that blocks Fusion from releasing whatever information they have?

Maddow breaks a bunch news this news tonight on her show. Fusion seem to want to get the information to the public that Republicans are trying to block the investigation. repubs are doing their best to protect Trump yet it is very clear they have known all along that there is damning evidence that Trump was money laundering with Russian around the globe and IMPORTANTLY that Trump's team KNEW exactly what was going on the whole time. the whole time and before even the FBI appears to have known.

Seems GPS tried to get congress to investigate bank accounts and transactions that might prove money laundering but that republicans investigating are refusing to investigate anyone but Fusion in attempts to smear them..

GPS co founder quote..
I read "We don't believe..." How would Fusion even know the DOJ/FBI motivation? Say, would this be the same Fusion that employs the wife of that DOJ associate deputy attorney general that was demoted? Why was Nunes stonewalled when he issued subpoenas for documents from the DOJ and FBI if there was no there there?

A co-founder of the opposition research firm Fusion GPS acknowledged in a new court document that his company hired the wife of a senior Justice Department official to help investigate then-candidate Donald Trump last year. The confirmation from Glenn Simpson came in a signed declaration filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., and provided a fuller picture of the nature of Nellie Ohr’s work – after Fox News first reported on her connection to Fusion GPS.

GPS Fusion testified for several hours before the senate, its the GOP complaining that they are at the heart of the investigation. So they should just release the transcript if they wanted to get at the truth but they would rather feed conspiracy theories and gin up the crazy base.


Fusion GPS actually wrote an OP Ed in the NY Times yesterday, this should put the ridiculous claims by the GOP to bed but facts don't seem to matter with them much. Grassley could have just released the transcript.


Maybe you didn't know this but Trump's legal defense team met with Mueller just prior to Christmas, one of the best kept secrets. Maybe Trump can tweet some light on what took place in that meeting.

Finally, we debunked the biggest canard being pushed by the president’s men — the notion that we somehow knew of the June 9, 2016, meeting in Trump Tower between some Russians and the Trump brain trust. We first learned of that meeting from news reports last year — and the committees know it. They also know that these Russians were unaware of the former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele’s work for us and were not sources for his reports.
