The commercial research company behind the infamous Trump dossier alleging ties between then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Russia has a history of conducting smear campaigns, according to congressional testimony from a man who was investigating a Venezuelan corruption scandal that spanned continents.
Thor Halvorssen, CEO of the New York-based Human Rights Foundation, alleged during an interview with FOX Business’ Liz MacDonald that while he was researching reports of corruption at Derwick Associates, the Venezuelan power company hired Washington-based company Fusion GPS to spike the stories by spreading misinformation about him.
“These are smear artists,” he said Wednesday on “Risk & Reward.” “And what they’ve learned is, if you want to kill an investigation, if you want to destroy a law enforcement investigation, go after the witnesses, go after the whistleblowers.”
Funny you should say that. I’m also enjoying Tucker tonight. I even enjoyed the lunatic dem trying to say that this whole Russian involvement with Hillary is NOT collusion, but just normal opposition research lol! Tucker wound up realizing the guy just wasn’t going to shut up and answer any questions, so he ended it with ridicule, which was very much deserved.
Yes, some good questions.
