Trump wants Justice or FBI to release who paid for Steele dossier

Trump tweeted about a lot of things recently. This seems important because it signals something that's actionable. While his other tweets get greater response.

These departments are under him, usually a president needn't coax them to do what he wants them to do, just tell them to do it and if they refuse then fire them. He need only to tell Wray and Sessions to release this information, since Fusion officials, Fritsch and Catan, took the fifth under subpoena to Senate Judiciary Committee, stating they consider the whole thing an indignity.

That will play well with Trump detractors and the entire Democrat party however meaningless outside their impervious dome of blinding hatred.

Trump merely has to call Wray and Sessions into his office, or even by phone, and say he wants the information released in the hour and boom the information is produced and disseminated. So who is he talking to directly besides us? In a radio interview Trump did just mention in reference to John McCain that at some point he (Trump) will have to start fighting back. We expect Trump already knows who paid for the dossier, since FBI and Justice already know and they are Trump's departments. It's possible Trump is telling McCain that he knows McCain's depth of complicity goes further  than already reported and when it's revealed the information is damaging to all parties who bought it. After all, the dossier was used as reasonable suspicion to justify the investigation.

Trump supporters get restless for taking too much time to act decisively. While noticing he allows his enemies enough rope to hang themselves. He has a cunning sense of timing with his actions. If he acts quickly he lands a few swamp creatures and the rest scramble into hiding. When he waits they get bold and he lands a lot more and he does greater damage to their malevolent insularity. He is signaling to all that if Wray and Sessions do not do as he says then he can properly remove them, and the people who paid for this garbage are about to be known.

What does Fusion even do? Who are these people?

Fusion was founded in 2009 before social media destroyed the remnants of 20th century journalism by two Wall Street Journal reporters, Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch. Adding former colleagues Tom Catan and Neil King Jr.

Opposition research and communication shops like Fusion GPS became the news-rooms with investigative teams and foreign bureaus that newspapers could no longer afford. By then Facebook became publisher of most of the news that Americans received. Fusion knows precisely what their former colleagues need to package stories to sell to their editors.

They are guns for hire. They were paid to dig up dirt on donors to Mitt Romney's campaign and they were hired by Planned Parenthood following the videos exposing their controversial and illegal practices.

They worked with Russia and other foreign countries, and campaigns creating news that further the aims of the people who hire them using the fractured news field to extend lobbying efforts in ways that news consumers are slow to comprehend.

So you see how damaging knowing who paid for this obviously fraudulent reporting will be for them. It was key to Muller's investigation. And that's why this tweet is important while other Trump tweets get more comments, retweets, likes, and more attention.
