Grassley: Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson gave ‘extremely misleading’ testimony to Senate

Published December 5, 2018 12:17am ET



Chairman Chuck Grassley is accusing Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson of giving “extremely misleading” statements during August 2017 testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee — and in doing so is comparing it to the false testimony that former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen also gave to Congress at the same time.
