Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., on Tuesday released the full transcript from Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson's testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee regarding Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.
"The innuendo and misinformation circulating about the transcript are part of a deeply troubling effort to undermine the investigation into potential collusion and obstruction of justice," Feinstein said in a statement. "The only way to set the record straight is to make the transcript public."
The move follows a decision by Republicans Chuck Grassley, who is chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Lindsey Graham to issue a criminal referral last week against Christopher Steele, the former British spy who authored the largely unverified "Trump dossier."
Joshua Levy, a lawyer for Fusion GPS, testified that someone died as a result of the dossier. Levy did not name the individual, according to the transcript.

Well, something died today too
Any last shred of belief that Dianne Feinstein has any integrity
Enjoy the “classified” reading, folks
Hillary’s donors and her FBI cabal paid a bundle for it
So this released to help FBI/DOJ conspirators avoid a perjury trap in their upcoming congressional testimony?
But it has layers of speculation with out any names. So its legit.... S/
Spot on. She should be locked up for aiding and abetting in a crime. It’s going to get real choppy over the next week.
“Joshua Levy, a lawyer for Fusion GPS, testified that someone died as a result of the dossier. Levy did not name the individual, according to the transcript.”
Did anyone ask a followup question? I can think of one or two that would have been appropriate.
A good businessman show a profit to the banks and a loss to the IRS... a great businessman does it legally.
...Joshua Levy, a lawyer for Fusion GPS, testified that someone died as a result of the dossier...
Another Arkancide.
So where is the moronic Senator Burr on this?
How did Fusion GPS get Trump’s tax history?
A bit of desperation here.
My first 3 guesses would be Lois Lerner, John Koskinen, or James Comey.

That sure does seem what this is, huh?

“Did anyone ask a followup question? I can think of one or two that would have been appropriate.”
I’ve come to the conclusion that Republicans representatives read from scripts prepared by staff. They are actors playing their roles and the perks of office are the reward for the absence of independent thought and action.
So here are some of the people fusion hired to work with.
So originally one of the first things we were
7 hired to do was to check out whether this was, in
8 fact, the case. So they claimed that the
9 allegations originated with a mobster named Demetri
10 Baranovsky, B-A-R-A-N-O-V-S-K-Y, who was, in fact,
11 jailed for running a shake-down operation in which
12 he posed as an anticorruption campaigner for the
13 purpose of extorting money from people by
14 threatening to accuse them of some kind of corrupt
15 activities. As you know, Russia is rife with
16 corruption and there’s a lot of anger over
17 corruption
I've been reading through the 312 page transcript and they actually say they did not get his tax history. . . or his tax returns. They assumed it from reports in the News. . . and discovery in lawsuits.
They spend pages talking about other people they only peripherally connect to trump. . . and the FusionGPS witness uses innuendo to attach their criminality to Trump. For example talking about Italian crime families in New York in construction and then claiming the Russian Keptocracy in Russia, then mentioning Trump.
He tosses off statements such as "Trump testified he didn't know (Felix) Sator" then claims that "he knows him very well, they're friends, and continued to meet with him for years after that," without providing any proof of his assertion. Sator is the guy who claimed to have offered to get Trump into a property development scheme in Russia with Putin back in 2015, and that deal would have helped him "win the US Presidency." But Trump never entered such a Russian deal. . . and says he never talked to him. So, the witness talked about how another guy, like Sator, established companies in Kalmykia Russian Republic, a tax haven even from Russia, and left it hanging that perhaps somehow Trump may have also established businesses in that Russian State. . . without ever saying it, or providing evidence he did, or even thought about it. Innuendo. The other guy was someone Trump once did business with. Peripherally connected.
No, he would NOT spill who hired them to start the dossier. Privileged, you know.
Now the others can get thier stories straight. This is obstruction. Period.
