text: Mr. Whitehouse and Mr. Durbin both knew that Mr. Browder could not link Fusion GPS and Russian funding. As attorneys, they both knew not to ask a witness a question to which they didn't already know the answer. Both gentlemen were attempting to have a witness on the record admit that there was no link between Russia and Fusion GPS and the Trump dossier. Therefore, this is one more reason to prevent the special counsel, Mr. Mueller, from looking into Fusion GPS funding, which could prove very embarrassing to Democratic interests. I think Mr. York is somewhat naive to attribute anything other than partisan motives to these gentlemen's actions.
