Mother Jones is reporting that Felix Sater, the apparently mobbed-up real estate developer who was involved in Trumps effort to get a building bearing his name built in Moscow, was willing—no, eager—to testify publicly about his role in the project, but Dems turned him down!
Sater’s lawyer Robert Wolf is quoted in the Mother Jones article saying,
“Mr. Sater previously testified voluntarily before the House Intelligence Committee in December, 2017 and agreed to their more recent requests to voluntarily appear on numerous other dates, including Chairman [Adam] Schiff’s [D-Calif.] request for public testimony on April 10, 2019, all of which were postponed by the committee,” Wolf said in a statement. He said that Sater had met in New York with committee staff to prepare for his public testimony.
Then Mother Jones quotes Sater,
“I was always willing to testify publicly,” Sater told Mother Jones Thursday.
Apparently I don’t understand multi-dimensional checkers, because I keep thinking that getting folks like Sater and Hope Hicks and others testifying in front of the whole country is a good thing. The Democratic leadership thinks otherwise, apparently. Apparently there is something about the truth that they don’t think we’re able to handle. Apparently they think that we may not be able to see through the BS that witnesses might sling. Apparently, ah, hell, I could go on and on, but it comes back to the question: what do you think we elected you to do?
