I finally started reading this transcript from the beginning (instead what others are pointing out) and…oh. em. gee. The expression you can “cut the tension with a knife” is an understatement here…

Latest update re: Fusion GPS/Congressional Interview Transcripts
Tomorrow, the House Intelligence Committee at 9am EST will take a vote on whether to release the transcript from their interview with Fusion GPS. Only a simple majority is needed in order for the transcript to be released.
Update: HPSCI could drop the transcript as early as today!

HPSCI & Fusion GPS Transcript!
- 1/18/18 Meeting to release Fusion GPS transcript: transcript
- 11/14/17 Fusion GPS & HPSCI interview: transcript
And we’re off to a lovely start:
Trey Gowdy (p. 9):
“…but you also used the word “facts,” and what did you mean when you used the word “facts”?”
Oh, boy…this is a train wreck:
Page 19:
MR. SIMPSON: Yes. I mean, I know that they are - the DNC is a client of Perkins Coie. I don’t - I didn’t see it – nobody gave me a document or informed me specifically of that.
MR. GOWDY: Did you think the law firm was just doing it on their own?
MR. SIMPSON: I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question.
MR. GOWDY: Did you think the law firm was just doing it on their own?
MR. SIMPSON: Doing what? Doing –
MR. GOWDY: Opposition research into candidate Trump.
MR. SIMPSON: No.
MR. GOWDY: Paying you to do opposition research into candidate Trump, did you think Perkins Coie was doing that on their own?
MR. SIMPSON: No, sir. What I’m trying to explain is that I have been in Washington for several decades, and I spent a lot of time on Capitol Hill and it was well-known to me that Perkins Coie represented the DNC.

We threw a line in the water and Moby Dick came back
Kinda feel like I should go get a smoking jacket and sit in front of the fire swirling a tumbler of scotch to read this.

Gah so much rage: Comey announced the reopening of #ButHerEmails investigation, didn’t think it worth mentioning that the FBI was also investigating drumpf. Major media outlets knew too!

I know right?! What is up with the FBI during this time period?! Didn’t Harry Reid write Comey a letter that summer asking him to make the Trump investigation public? Seems like a lot of people knew but no one wanted to have that public discussion.

I still haven’t made it through all of it (stupid work! lol)…but it’s looking like the HPSCI transcript seems to be much more plentiful in new details than the SJC did. I’m sure the fact that it seemed much less formal and he was originally subpoenas to be interviewed (which was withdrawn).

Also, anyone using the Dropbox link to download - I apologize for my highlights! I forgot to save a “clean” copy to share!

#samesies Can NOT wait until work/errands are over today. And you’re spot on about the informality, I feel like I’m reading a fast-paced novel sometimes.

There was quite a few standout remarks from today’s hearing. I think one of the most notable was Director Wray’s comment re: the Russia Investigation in response to Senator Harris’ question.
“I’m not going to discuss the investigation in question with the President, much less provide information from the investigation to him.”
