True or False: Two Repub members of House Intel Committee went to London...?

...but did not meet with the author of the Steele dossier?

Does anyone believe they made a trip all the way to London and did not have a meeting already scheduled?

Did they report back to their leadership after the meeting they didn't have??

Is this why the Republicans become much more adversarial toward Donald Trump, with the vote of the sanctions, etc?

In my opinion, they met with the Steele dossier author and they found him credible and reported back the bad news to other Republicans. They are very concerned with the Trump/Russian connection now, when they did not believe it before.

We have not heard all the details about this secret trip to London by a couple of House Intel members. Democrats on the Committee knew nothing about the trip. There is more news to come on this story, in my opinion.

Just a week ago, he was ready to fire both of them. Yesterday, he had praise for both of them. Why?

Maybe his attorney told him to stop acting so guilty?

I never believe conspiracy theories.

The important news today is that Democrats (e.g., Schiff) now openly say they also want Steele to testify. Dems realize this story is good for our side, despite the spin some Republicans will try to put on it.
