Excerpt from CNS News:
Transcripts released Wednesday by the Senate Judiciary Committee say that Glenn Simpson, the co-founder of Fusion GPS, had dinner with Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya both the day before and the day after she met with Donald Trump, Jr. at Trump Tower on June 9.
Simpson had business dealings with Veselnitskaya, and that included a court hearing in New York on June 9. But Simpson said he did not know about the June 9 meeting at Trump Tower. He said the subject never came up at either of the dinners he had with Veselnitskaya on June 8 or 10; and he was “stunned” to learn about it later in The New York Times.
