Last week, the firm behind the contract for the Russian Dossier, Fusion GPS, requested that a U.S. District judge block congressional investigators from access, via a previous subpoena, to its bank records. The judge gave the House Intelligence Committee lawyers and Fusion GPS a week to see if they could work out a mutual agreement on the production of the records.
Today the attorney's for Fusion GPS and the House Intelligence Committee agreed to terms for releasing the bank records. The intel committee will receive the bank records to continue their investigation, but the documents will be sealed from public scrutiny:
During the week-long negotiations between Fusion GPS and congressional lawyers, it was revealed that The Washington Free Beacon and billionaire Paul Singer initially contracted with Fusion GPS for initial opposition research against candidate Donald Trump, seemingly for the benefit of WFB and Singer's preferred candidate Marco Rubio. That commissioned research ended in March/April of 2016 when it was clear that Rubio could not win the nomination.
