William Browder, Anglo-American financial terrorist
The testimony prepared by Magnitsky Act lobbyist William Browder for the Senate Judiciary Committee, probing alleged Russian meddling into the US election, is false, Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya told RT, adding that she has the proof.
Browder was due to testify before the Committee on Wednesday, but his appearance was eventually rescheduled for Thursday. The delay was caused by Senate Democrats invoking a rule barring the committee sessions from lasting more than two hours in response to attempts by the Republicans to repeal ObamaCare.
However, Browder's written testimony to Committee was published on
The Atlantic website earlier this week.
"I read the transcript carefully - there is nothing new there, he has already said all these things before. And I can tell you with certainty that... Browder will give false testimony," Veselnitskaya told RT on the phone.
Comment: So Browder says Veselnitskaya hired Fusion GPS (the same company responsible for the dodgy Trump dossier, in cahoots with ex British spook Christopher Steele). Browder himself is accused of ties to British intelligence. And the "ex-counterintelligence officer" lobbyist who also attended the meeting with Trump Jr. is also allegedly tied to Fusion GPS. Were the meeting and the dossier connected? Was it intended to back up the unfounded allegations found in the trumped-up dossier? Is Browder attempting some damage control to obscure what really happened? It's a tangled web, that's all we know for sure!

Update: Russia haters everywhere are ecstatic. Browder delivered a stellar, hysterical
testimony to the U.S. Senate in which he said everything his fellow Russia haters wanted him to say. It has to be read to be believed:
Browder appeared before the committee, which is looking into alleged Russian meddling into the US election, on Thursday.
Browder, CEO of Hermitage Capital, who was sentenced in absentia to nine years in prison for his financial crimes in Russia in the 2000s, was summoned as a key witness and an expert on Putin's Russia.
He has given senators his version of the meeting between Veselnitskaya and the Trump team, comprised of US president Donald Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr., the president's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and then-campaign chairman Paul J. Manafort, during the race for the White House in June 2016.
"Nobody was talking about adoptions. They were talking about the repeal of sanctions so that Russian torturers and murderers could freely travel and keep their money in America," Browder said.
His emotional speech was welcomed by senators as they left little doubt that the witness was saying what they wanted to hear.
Browder told the committee that the Russians are all "liars," who have "no empathy and no morals."
"The Russians will do anything they can get away with and even stuff they can't get away with," he said.
The businessman said that his experience of working in the country taught him that "in Putin's Russia, there are no good guys," adding that he was threatened with kidnapping and death.
Remember,
Browder wasn't even at the Trump Jr. meeting. So what value could his testimony in this regard possibly have? That's right, absolutely none. Putin was right, Russophobia is the new anti-Semitism. Yet could you even imagine someone saying Jews are "all liars who have no empathy and no morals"? But all's fair when it comes to hatred of Russians, it seems.
