Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm behind the uncorroborated Trump dossier, filed a last-minute request with a federal judge in Washington, D.C. on Friday seeking to prevent the release of its bank records to the House Intelligence Committee.
Fusion, which is based in Washington, D.C., filed a motion asking U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan to approve an injunction preventing its bank, TD Bank, from having to turn over two years’ worth of banking records to the House committee.
Republicans on the committee are looking for answers on several aspects on the dossier, including who paid Fusion GPS to commission the document as well as how heavily the FBI and Justice Department relied on the document to form the basis of its investigation into Russian interference in the presidential campaign.
Trump and members of his campaign have denied the dossier’s most salacious allegations, including that the Kremlin blackmailed Trump and that Trump campaign associates colluded with Russian operatives to influence the election.

If you go down the list of Never-Trumpers (including McCain, the Bushes, and I’ll Kristol), I think there will be a match of the financiers of the Uriniating Prostitute Fairytale. The GOPe and others are likely tied to this gambit.
They should have moved in and taken all the bank records. Manafort didn't gat any advance notice of the FBI raid on his house.
Wonder how Fusion GPS learned of the subpoena to TD Bank?
Oh, yes he would... lord McCain was just pressing the press with the Defense Secretary, this past week... Lord McCain owns the media's Sunday morning worship hours... Problem is the media is NOT the least bit interested in unmasking the workings of the 'uniparty'. Look how many years it took W Bush to get glowing press coverage.
I would watch the degenerates in the media IF they would ask lord McCain, about his roll in taking Rick Wilson's dirt to the UK, and how much money did he send them... Then I would like to hear lord McCain ask why he let the Obama administration sell our uranium to the horrible Russians... What was lord McCain doing when all this was going on... Was he too busy helping his ISIS rebels get weapons to care, about the Russians buying our uranium?
I always wondered what’s in the jar?
Pickled eggs?
I meant a ‘real’ reporter, like O’Keefe, Project Veritas. Do you think McTraitor would let him/them near him?
The bank would contact them, and let them know.
McCain is a giant idiot. Probably doesn't know his left from his right.
“Same judge that ordered abortion for illegal immigrant. Obama appointed. We know which way she will rule. No bank records.”
That could change. They are going to get the records, but they will be scrubbed. That’s what 16 Clinton attorneys hired by Mueller are there for.
If this was a real subpoena, the Capitol Police or the FBI would have served it and collected the documents on the spot.
Enjoy the Dog and Pony show, cuz that’s all it is.
I’m betting it was CNN or some other media outlet that if implicated can claim first amendment rights.
It appears lord McCain's death wish is to destroy President Trump... He is so consumed with this, he has no control over his own mouth or brain.. Any one of the so call media jerks, could set him off... Like what does he think about Clintons profiting off selling US uranium to those evil Russians... Lord only knows what would come flying out of his mouth. OR who did you send to pick up Rick Wilson's refined dirty dossier from the UK authentication process... Oh how I would love to have the opportunity to ask the old goat some questions in front of the media's eyes.
who ever paid fusion I bet is a cut out.....my bet is that the significance of the source of payment will be that this cut out was used to make serval payments with in the deep state to individuals for there cooperation. at this point as hot as it is I bet the person is murdered.
I wouldn’t worry about this much. When someone is resisting subpoenas, the FBI picks their locks at 5am and storms in with a swat team in a show of force.
Like at Manaforts house.
That's not quite it. The made-up story is as follows:
"the dossier claims that the Russian FSB spy agency possesses a video of Trump successfully requesting prostitutes to urinate on a bed while staying in a Moscow hotel room once occupied by the former president and first lady, Barack and Michelle Obama."
There is absolutely no legal basis for granting Fusion’s request.
I think Tippy Toes Bush would be high on the list.
Dingdingdingdingding!
We have a winner!
Kabuki theater only. No one on the Democrat side will ever go to prison on this.
Face it: we are ruled by the Democrat party who can do anything they want any time they want....Donald Trump notwithstanding.
All the rest of us law abiding citizens can just go to hell....but we still have to pay our taxes.
McCain is a giant idiot. Probably doesn't know his left from his right.In his mind (what's left of it) left IS right.
