Excerpts from article:
...Rep. Devin Nunes vowed to expand his lawsuit against Fusion GPS on Saturday, a day after a federal court dismissed the California Republican's racketeering conspiracy case against the opposition research firm.
...Last September, Nunes filed his lawsuit against Fusion GPS, its founder Glenn Simpson, and the left-leaning watchdog group Campaign for Accountability, seeking $9.9 million in damages.
..."The outright fabrications in the Steele 'dossier' are the product of a joint collaborative effort between Steele and Fusion GPS. Steele and Fusion GPS, acting in concert, lied to the FBI and spread lurid and fake anecdotes in order to obstruct the FBI's Crossfire Hurricane investigation," Nunes alleged.
...Fusion GPS was hired by Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Democratic National Committee in 2016 through the Perkins Coie law firm, and Fusion GPS in turn hired Steele, who made allegations regarding Trump and Russia.
...Nunes said Fusion GPS retaliated against him through the Campaign for Accountability in part because of subpoenas he issued to the bank the opposition research firm used which "Revealed that the Clinton campaign, the DNC and Perkins Coie paid for Fusion GPS's anti-Trump research."
