A secretive Washington firm that commissioned the dubious intelligence dossier on Donald Trump is stonewalling congressional investigators. Fusion GPS describes itself as a “research and strategic intelligence firm” founded by “three former Wall Street Journal investigative reporters.” The Senate Judiciary Committee is also investigating whether the FBI has wrongly relied on the anti-Trump dossier and its author, Christopher Steele — the old spy who was hired by Fusion GPS to build a Russia file on Trump — to aid its ongoing espionage investigation into the Trump campaign and its possible ties to Moscow. The FBI received a copy of the Democrat-funded dossier in August, during the heat of the campaign, and is said to have contracted in October to pay Steele $50,000 to help corroborate the dirt on Trump — a relationship that “raises substantial questions about the independence” of the bureau in investigating Trump, warned Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa. Senate investigators are demanding to see records of communications between Fusion GPS and the FBI and the Justice Department, including any contacts with former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, now under congressional investigation for possibly obstructing the Hillary Clinton email probe, and deputy FBI director Andrew McCabe, who is under investigation by the Senate and the Justice inspector general for failing to recuse himself despite financial and political connections to the Clinton campaign through his Democrat activist wife. Senate investigators have singled out McCabe as the FBI official who negotiated with Steele. Like Fusion GPS, the FBI has failed to cooperate with congressional investigators seeking documents. He relied on third-hand “friend of friend” sourcing. In fact, most of his claimed Russian sources spoke not directly to him but “in confidence to a trusted compatriot” who, in turn, spoke to Steele — and always anonymously.

There is one person behind this whole thing, her name is Hillary.
Is Mueller going to investigate this story?
[Is Mueller going to investigate this story?]
Well, since they did the early work for him and Comey.....no.
These are their boys and girls, trying to set up the pins for Mueller and his appointees to knock down.
A rigged game - rigged by Deep State Democrats.
How could a firm stall the US Government? It sounds like the Democrats and Republican Establishment want this to end Trump’s Presidency.
Send in the FBI. Seize everything in their facilities and jail all responsible parties. That will get them singing a different tune in a hurry.
the truth will out...
GUILTY!
Either subpoena or raid the facility for computers and cell phones
