Fusion GPS, the company that paid to create a dossier on Donald Trump, was acting on behalf of Russia to abolish the Magnitsky Act. The dossier was compiled by a former British spy working for Fusion GPS and consisted primarily of gossip from Russian oligarchs. It ended up in the hands of the FBI thanks to never Trumper John McCain.

In other words, at the same time they were receiving money indirectly from a senior Russian government official they were paying to put the dossier together. They are smear merchants who worked as Russian agents.

Given Russia’s clear desire to abolish The Magnitsky Act and Hillary’s declared opposition to Magnitsky, it seems Russia and Hillary were on the same page. In fact, Hillary has a history of giving Russia what they want, including a uranium mine, U.S. technology, and abandonment of a missile defense system in Eastern Europe.

Ian Schwartz wrote this in realclearpolitics yesterday: At a Senate Judiciary Hearing today, William Browder, Hermitage Capital Management chief, testified the firm Fusion GPS was acting on behalf of Russia with their debunked dossier against Trump. Browder testified Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson was hired by a client of Natalia Veselnitskaya, the lawyer who visited Donald Trump Jr., to lobby for a repeal of the Magnitsky Act.

TRANSCRIPT:

SEN. LINDSEY GRAHAM: This whole story reads like some kind of novel that nobody would buy, it’s got to be fiction, but unfortunately maybe it’s true. Let’s just break down sort of why you’re here. You believe that Fusion GPS should of registered under FARA [Foreign Agents Registration Act], because they were acting on the behalf of the Russians?

WILLIAM BROWDER: That’s correct.

SEN. GRAHAM: So, I just want to absorb that for a moment. The group that did the dossier on President Trump hired this British spy, wound up getting it to the FBI. You believe they were working for the Russians?

BROWDER: And in the Spring and Summer of 2016 they were receiving money indirectly from a senior Russian government official.

SEN. GRAHAM: Okay. So, these are the people that were trying to undermine Donald Trump by showing the nefarious ties to Russia. Is that what you’re saying?

BROWDER: Well, what I’m saying with 100% certainty is that they were working to undermine the Magnitsky act and the timing of that.

SEN. GRAHAM: But, the Fusion GPS products apparently as they hired a guy to look into Trump?

BROWDER: Yes.

SEN. GRAHAM: Right

BROWDER: Correct.
