The opposition researcher behind the so-called Trump dossier worked last year on behalf of an alleged former Russian spy, and the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee wants to know why he hasn’t registered as a foreign agent.
In a letter sent to Acting Deputy Attorney General Dana Boente on Friday, Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley inquired about Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson’s work last year for Rinat Akhmetshin, a Washington, D.C.-based operative who is believed to be a former Russian counter-intelligence agent.
Simpson’s work with Akhmetshin, which was first revealed last year, is surprising given that Simpson is who hired former British spy Christopher Steele to conduct research about Trump’s activities in Russia.
Simpson, a former Wall Street Journal reporter, was hired by a Hillary Clinton supporter to dig up dirt on Trump. The project resulted in a 35-page unverified dossier written by Steele that Fusion GPS distributed to reporters. Steele also gave the document to the FBI.
