“We have learned from both our own investigation and public reports that the participants in the meeting misrepresented who they were and who they worked for,” said Mark Corallo, a spokesman for President Trump’s legal team. “Specifically, we have learned that the person who sought the meeting is associated with Fusion GPS, a firm which according to public reports, was retained by Democratic operatives to develop opposition research on the President and which commissioned the phony Steele dossier. "

Dirty tricks.

The entire "dossier" was a work of complete fiction, planted by a British man who was receiving money from a firm funded by Hillary's campaign for opposition research.

Meanwhile, the NY Slimes is running (yet another) "Trump-Russia-Collusion" article tomorrow.

The war continues.....

Hillary hired Fusion GPS (an opposition research/dirty tricks organization), which set up a meeting in an attempt to frame then candidate Donald Trump (he didn't attend the meeting).

Read the entire article. The tentacles go very deep.

Very interesting news. It does indeed sound like a setup.

In the 90’s I went to an Orthodox church for a “Taste of Russia” and around 2008 I visited a Russian themed novelty store. Better call a lawyer.

I remember hillary mentioning during the campaign about Russian involvement in the election. I thought it was absolute nonsense. Now it’s making sense. This really sounds like something the Clintons would do. Obama was in it too.

My VERY good friend was in the Soviet Army as a doctor. He defected during a trip to the USA many years ago and is now an ER doctor in Tennessee and a hard core conservative. He has many fascinating stories to tell about the USSR including their government run healthcare. He says that people who want government run healthcare are absolute idiots and have no clue what they are asking for.

So I guess I'm in trouble too cause I have a close friend who is Russian ... Siberian no less

[blueyon]

Seems like his meeting ended up being a big fat nothing burger

[EdnaMode]

I’ve watched tennis, hockey,skating, and gymnastics. There were many Russian athletes. Guess I’m in trouble.

Jr may have been set up. I will give him the benefit of the doubt. The ties run deep with that russian lawyer. Putin uses kids as bait to try to overturn that law. Deep money laundering

Problem is known snitch and money launderer felix sater and the connection to trump and trump jr.

Mueller and his money laundering team are now going to delve deep into that meeting

I see on Drudge that the NYT has another story about Russia. This has already played out and no one cares.

Mulluer, Comey, and Deepstate should be wise enough to realize that they’re not going to replace our duly elected president because of a lot of nothing. Trump wouldn’t go out without a fight and he would have a lot of people supporting him.

Again, Russia has already played out. There is nothing there.

This story is a nothing burger.

And they all met with Santa Claus too, and collaborated on how to save Christmas.

I was about to order one of those “Hot Russian Women Online” but this has all changed my mind. :>)

“The president’s legal team said Saturday they believe the entire meeting may have been part of a larger election-year opposition effort aimed at creating the appearance of improper connections between Trump family members and Russia...”

That doesn’t make sense.

The problem is not meeting with a Russian, it is meeting with a lawyer. We need to make it a felony for any US citizen to meet with a lawyer, anywhere, any time, any place. That will fix a host of problems.

[Chewbarkah]

Why can’t Trump sue Fusion GPS for defamation over its dossier project, and use legal process to compel discovery and production of documents, including who its clients were, what monies it received for what, who it paid, all its correspondence and emails related to the Trump oppo research, etc.? Dirty tricks are not protected “speech”. This project WAS shopped to reporters and politicians with the intent to harm Trump. Now it appears they engineered meetings so they had something to report. Put Trump’s private attorneys on them until they beg for mercy.

[Eddie01]

Well that’s just crazy!

We had the same Russian Laywer (Sam Bernstein) over the day before to show off our son’s calligraphy skills.

Small world.

[faithhopecharity]

the Mass-hysteria Media has been drinking way, way too much Russian vodka

they’re STILL publishing this crazy krap? wow!

[Nifster]

Another nothing burger

[Chgogal]

Just “Wow”, if true.
