Grassley said the release could undermine attempts to interview other witnesses in the committee’s investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

The whole thing reads like that was the intent in the first place - put all the things back on the table that Simpson wouldn’t testify to & lawyers objected, in a criminal case, he’ll take the 5th immediately. This was produced & released in this way to get their spin on it ... but therein they still provide plenty to get in trouble and there is nothing real or true underlying anything they did.
