Fusion GPS Founders On Russian Efforts To Sow Discord: ‘They Have Succeeded’

NPR, Fresh Air 26 Nov 2019:

During the ‘16 campaign, Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch hired former British intelligence agent Christopher Steele to investigate Trump’s involvement with Russia. Their new book is Crime in Progress.

TERRY GROSS, HOST:

This is FRESH AIR. I’m Terry Gross. After Donald Trump was elected but before he was inaugurated, BuzzFeed published a leaked document that became known as the Steele dossier - a series of memos written by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele suggesting Russia had been cultivating, supporting and assisting Trump and that, according to several sources, Russia had compromising information that could be used to blackmail Trump.

This dossier had been commissioned by Fusion GPS, a private research company providing research for law firms and corporations as well as opposition research for political candidates. Fusion was first hired to investigate Trump during the primary by the Republican news site The Washington Free Beacon. After Trump won the primary, the law firm representing Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee started funding Fusion’s research into Trump.

My guests are the founders of Fusion GPS, Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch. They’re former Wall Street Journal reporters. Some of the Russians who surfaced in the Trump investigation were people Simpson and Fritsch had reported on at The Wall Street Journal while investigating Russian corruption and organized crime. Simpson and Fritsch have written a new book called “Crime In Progress” about their investigation into Trump, its impact and Republican attempts to discredit Fusion GPS and the Steele dossier.

Glenn Simpson, Peter Fritsch, welcome to FRESH AIR. What were some of the findings in your report and in the Steele dossier that you consider to be the most important early warnings of Donald Trump’s ties to Russia?

PETER FRITSCH: The truth is Chris Steele came into this project about nine months in. We started looking at Donald Trump and his relationship to Russia as part of a much broader project, which was looking at Donald Trump’s business career. As has been reported, we first started working for Republicans. About nine months in, we started working with Chris Steele. Now, we saw a lot in the early going that caused us to have concerns about Donald Trump’s relationship with Russia.

First, we saw his relationship with Felix Sater. Felix Sater is a Russian emigre to the U.S. who was working with Donald Trump and, importantly, worked with him in the FL-Group, which developed, among other properties, the Trump Soho. You know, this is an individual who was - went to prison for slicing someone’s face open with a margarita glass, who then was convicted of stock fraud - this is all in the ‘90s. So that caught our attention, to see him with a business card - occupying an office in Trump Tower and carrying a business card with Donald Trump’s company name on it.

Then, we found a number of properties inside Trump Tower itself that were occupied by convicted and alleged organized crime figures from Russia. You know, we also just saw a pattern of investments coming into Donald Trump’s properties, and to Donald Trump personally. The other sort of interesting data point in the early going was the transaction in Palm Beach involving a Russian oligarch by the name of Dmitry Rybolovlev - pardon my pronunciation. He is a potash magnate - it’s a fertilizer - sort of king of Russia. He bought Donald Trump’s mansion in the mid-2000s for about $95 million when it was on the market for $45 million. That was a really suspicious transaction to us. So anyway, the sum of that and just the sum of our research regarding his business led us to want to know more about Russia, which is how we started working with Christopher Steele.

The reason being that California is an absolutely unique agricultural resource in addition to being a font of natural gas and other crucial strategic resources.

And as such, its coast line, farmland and spectacular wilderness should not only be ours to pass on to our posterity for its living space and natural beauty, but because we need it strategically and have shown ability and propensity to manage its resource ecologically - when we are not hamstrung by the YKW and their anti-White coalitions.

This is not to say that we should not concede to share the state to some extent with Indios, Mestizos and Asians, but only on the grounds that they agree to terms of ecological management that include human populations, including ours - on the basis of County-wide jurisdictions for Whites, and others for non-Whites and mixed populations, with an agreement to maintain those sovereign County-wide jurisdictions.

Indeed, the Mexicans have already gained a large war of position in the south of the state - and they are to be congratulated for clearing the blacks out of their neighborhoods (need to clear out Kamala Harris too. Lets hear it for Tulsi Gabbard instead, at least se doesn’t hate Whites) such that many Whites are now fleeing the alien surrounds for other states.

Nevertheless, before naiively abandoning California’s crucial resource, Whites should listen to the woman going by the tag of ‘Influence’ (avatar cartoon blond woman about 4 hours and 5 minutes into the hangout which I entitled, ‘Coordinating Ethnonationalism’, and consider why we need to maintain sovereign County-wide strongholds and a powerful role in the state-wide governance.

Of crucial note, when Gariepy refers to ‘The Left’, he is referring to the internationally (((organized))) anti-White Left. He is not referring to the White Ethnonationalist Left, which is non-supremacist / imperialist and thus, innocent and deserving coalition membership in the negotiative management of sovereign Counties.
