Simpson appears to have lied to Congress during his testimony.
So, is Grassley going to make a criminal referral to Sessions?
Someone, somewhere is writing a screenplay for something far better than “All the Presidents Men”.
Is he a small enough fry to take the fall?
That’s the testimony Feinstein released without approval or knowledge of the rest of the Committee? So she was complicit in facilitating the release of false info to the press and public.
Everyone, except the main stream media, can see the problem.
That answer seems at odds with an FBI interview report, or 302, obtained by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
The 302 recounted an interview agents conducted with Daniel Jones, a former senior Feinstein staffer who founded his own investigative firm, Penn Quarter Group. Mr. Jones told the agents he had received $50 million from seven to 10 wealthy donors and that he had hired Fusion GPS and Mr. Steele to continue investigating President Trump.
If Mr. Jones interview is accurate, it would mean that Fusion did in fact have a post-election clientPenn Quarter Group. . .
Mr. Simpson was not under oath. But Mr. Grassleys staff explained to him that lying to Congress violates federal law. . .
This is the second hiccup in Mr. Simpsons testimony.
When Mrs. Feinstein released the transcript in January, it showed that Mr. Simpson testified that Mr. Steele was told by the FBI it had a source inside the Trump campaign. . .
So what? I’d lie to ‘em also. Grassley and Congress deserves to get lied to. Nobody has ever served a day or had the slightest consequence for lying to Congress.
Like Calvera said in Magnificent Seven. “God made them sheep, so why shouldn’t they be sheared.”
Mr. Simpson “was asked directly if he continued to conduct anti-Trump opposition research after the Nov. 8 election. He answered, I had no client after the election.
The article sees to be saying that the above is what Grassley presents as Simpson’s lie. Perhaps there is something more, because it is clearly an evasion, but not (necessarily) a lie, unless Simpson did have a client. The genius questioning Simpson should have said, “Thanks for telling us that. Now answer my question yes or no.”
