Fusion GPS, the producer of the infamous Trump dossier, is fending off in court three of Russia’s richest oligarchs by painting them as corrupt bankers in bed with President Vladimir Putin.
The three primary investors in Moscow’s Alfa Bank — Mikhail Fridman, Petr Aven and German Khan — filed a libel lawsuit against Fusion in October. Fusion’s dossier, written by former British spy Christopher Steele, says two of them engineered cash bribes to Mr. Putin. The dossier also implies that the bank colluded with Mr. Putin to interfere in the 2016 U.S. presidential election by hacking Democratic Party computers.
The lawsuit describes the three billionaires as international businessmen who became “collateral damage” in Fusion’s war to destroy the Donald Trump campaign.
“This is a defamation case brought by three international businessmen who were defamed in widely disseminated political research reports commissioned by political opponents of candidate Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election cycle,” says a Dec. 12 filing in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
“The reports are gravely damaging in that, directly or by implication, they falsely accuse the plaintiffs — and Alfa, a consortium in which the plaintiffs are investors — of criminal conduct and alleged cooperation with ‘Kremlin’ to influence the 2016 presidential election,” says the complaint by the New York law firm Carter Ledyard & Milburn.

How did the Podestas get off the hook?
Indeed, how did they get off.
Fusion CIA
Sounds like one of many Mueller Miracles we will be witnessing over the coming year.
What did muzzie Brennan know and when did he know it?
Get on with the discovery process! ;-)
Maybe Podesta’s got pictures and pizza?
The politics at any cost and by any means may have a price for those generating dirt.
“What a tangled web we weave when we practice deceive”.
There are probably a lot of people involved who are now thinking for the first time about heading for the tall grass. They never saw this coming. They didn’t even see Trump coming. Yet these were the corrupt “experts” who were supposed to be in charge of the government? What a mess.
“What a tangled web we weave when we practice TO deceive”.

More like Fusion FSB. These guys were operating inside Russia and using FSB contacts. Given that, it is doubtful the Russkies would have let Steele run around spying unless he was controlled. The Russian government has made many folks PNG for far less.
Not positive if he's a Muslim convert, but he really likes Islam, I mean this guy praises Islam. Video is out there of him doing just that.
Brennan was definitely out on the hustings even after DJT was elected to trash him, along with Klapper and Comey.
It’s difficult to believe that Brennan was not running all sort of clandestine ops on Trump. Nellie Orr is just a surface element IMHO.
