President Trump called out Democrat Adam Schiff on Friday after John Solomon of The Hill reported that the House Intelligence Committee chairman had an “encounter” with Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson in Aspen last summer.
The meeting happened at the Aspen Security Conference and Schiff never disclosed that the meeting took place.
Simpson is the one who hired Nellie Ohr and Christopher Steele!
This is worse than when Bill Clinton just happened to meet Obama’s AG Loretta Lynch on the tarmac to talk about grandchildren and both are dirty politics. Spokespeople for both Schiff and Simpson played the meeting off like it was no big deal and only a short social encounter. Funny, that’s what Clinton and Lynch said of their tarmac meeting.
This is a double standard by Schiff because he previously demanded Rep. Devin Nunes be investigated for meeting with Trump administration officials.
He was nailed on it by President Trump on Friday:
Now we find out that Adam Schiff was spending time together in Aspen with Glenn Simpson of GPS Fusion, who wrote the fake and discredited Dossier, even though Simpson was testifying before Schiff. John Solomon of @thehill

The Hill’s John Solomon discussed his article regarding the meeting between Schiff and Simpson:
Republican Jim Jordan also tweeted out a shout out to Democrat Adam Schiff regarding the news that Schiff met with Glenn Simpson in Aspen but never disclosed the meeting.
Adam Schiff:
-Meets with Glenn Simpson, who hired Nellie Ohr and Chris Steele and paid for the Dossier
-Doesn’t disclose the meeting
-Says there’s nothing wrong
REMEMBER: Schiff demanded that Nunes be investigated for meeting with administration officials.
Double standard?
