Sen. Grassley going off on his own without Co-chair Diane Feinstein on questioning

[riversedge]

why the Russia lawyer was allowed into our country for the Don Jr. meeting at the nyc Towers. Supposedly she had had her visa revoked the prior January in 2016. Andrea Mitchell indicating SenGrassley trying to shift focus on Senate committee to Obama--how his administration let her into the country. Sorry I only heard the end of Andrea's report just now on Cnn.

She made a note that previously when Grassley put out memo's, they were co signed by Feinstien but not now.

1. OH I see now---Grassley was on Fox and Friends today............

Probably trump will provide a tweet about this.

Also--I see that Wash Examiner has a story about this.

As seen on Fox & Friends (video)



Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA) said he wants answers on why the Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr. was in the United States, since her entry visa had been denied.

The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said on "Fox & Friends" that he has written to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and DHS Secretary John Kelly in an effort to find out what happened.

2. Total desperation play to see if something anything sticks

That meatball is going right out the door.

3. If Grassley weighing in, media needs to ask about his 3/2017 email about the lawyer

He was sent a 108 page PDF from Browder that had the lawyer's name all over the pages...her background, connections to a Russian lobbyist group, and her associates. He forwarded it to Boente as well as cc copies to McCain, The HFRC, and Comey. He asked Boente what was being done about the situation.
So Grassley is on record about knowing info on the lawyer since 3/2017. Did he ever follow up on it??? Especially since one of the associates who is connected to the Russian lobbyist group works at the State Dept. Did he take steps to investigate why that person is working there?

If he wants to throw stones he better be prepared to be asked about his role since he has known about the lawyer and her activity for 4 months due to the 3/2017 email.
