Newly filed court documents confirm that Fusion GPS, the company
mostly responsible for the controversial “Trump dossier” on presidential
candidate Donald Trump, made payments to three journalists between June
2016 until February 2017.
The revelation could be a breakthrough for House Republicans, who are
exploring whether Fusion GPS used the dossier, which was later
criticized for having inaccurate information on Trump, to feed
anti-Trump stories to the press during and after the presidential
campaign. The three journalists who were paid by Fusion GPS are known to
have reported on “Russia issues relevant to [the committee’s]
investigation,” the House Intelligence Committee said in a court filing.
But the recipients’ names, the amounts, and purposes of those
payments were either redacted from the documents that Fusion GPS filed
to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia or were not
disclosed.
