Trump Dossier Firm Again Refuses To Identify Its Political Clients

[Daily Caller] Fusion GPS, the opposition research firm behind the infamous Trump dossier, is again refusing to disclose the identity of political clients who financed the anti-Trump dirt-digging project.

In a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee sent on Friday, lawyers for Fusion GPS said that disclosing the information about the firm’s opposition research project would undercut its First Amendment privileges and violate confidentiality agreements.

As has been widely reported, an unidentified Republican donor hired Fusion GPS in late 2015 to research Trump. But after the real estate magnate won the Republican primary, the donor dropped from the project. But Fusion GPS soon found another client, this one a Democratic ally of Hillary Clinton’s.

Fusion hired former British spy Christopher Steele to research Trump’s Russia connections. He produced a series of memos now known collectively as the dossier. The salacious document, much of which has been debunked, was leaked to numerous news outlets and published by BuzzFeed on Jan. 10.

#5 So, they had this 'dossier' that the FBI wanted to read, presumably because they thought it evidentiary in some way or other. OK, that's all well and good. I'm just curious when it was you got to start charging for evidence. Seems as though they used to just pretty much demand you hand it over followed by a herd of them in raid jackets introducing you and your employees to the floor in the event that order was not followed with great immediacy. The of course the real fun begins and they rip the walls out of your various homes and reduce your vehicles to component parts in the parking lot. But these guys get money? Now they don't want to answer questions? Nothing to see here...

#6 So Fusion won't tell but I'd bet the client was somebody close to the Bushes. If I'm wrong let them deny it.
