The Judiciary Committee will privately question Felix Sater on Thursday, the day after he testifies publicly before the Intelligence Committee.

By Rachael Bade and Rachael Bade Congressional reporter Email Bio Follow Tom Hamburger Tom Hamburger Investigative reporter focused on the intersection of money and politics in Washington Email Bio Follow March 20 at 5:40 PM The House Judiciary Committee plans to question the point person for the controversial 2016 Trump Tower Moscow project in what will be Democrats’ second session next week with the onetime business associate of President Trump.

Investigators on both panels are expected to question Sater on Trump’s plans to build a skyscraper in Moscow during the 2016 election, a project Sater worked on for a time. It was Sater who came up with the idea of giving a $50 million penthouse in that building to Russian President Vladimir Putin as a way to market the tower to wealthy individuals.

While both the Judiciary and Intelligence committees are investigating Trump, the Intelligence Committee has focused on what Trump associates may have known about Russia’s interference in the 2016 election. The Judiciary Committee is investigating whether Trump obstructed justice, abused his power or engaged in public corruption.

No one cares.

Let’s bring in all business people in the USA to testify and see what we can find. HOW ABOUT DOING YOUR JOB AND GET THE BORDER FIXED. THSTS WHAT AMERICANS WANT VOTE REPUBLICAN GET YOU ASS OUT OF OFFICE

I’m very happy that the democrats keep this crap up ... what they don’t realize is that besides Tom Steyer, no one cares.

It takes your enemy and your friend, working together, to hurt you: the one to slander you, and the other to bring the news to you.

Seems to me Sater has played a far bigger role in the Mueller Investigation than is being said.The last sentence in this story is just a hint at how much he is owned by the FBI. Seems to me testimony behind closed doors is protecting the witness🤨

Do not care

The hits just keep on coming

Hey Dems! Old Chinese Proverb says, 'When you go to dig a grave for your enemy---dig two!'

House Dems should focus on the American people and not all the resources on attempting to find dirt on Trump. All is well, take your best shot in 2020 and start freakin working for ME, not your party. 🙄

Harassment.

Blah Blah Blah *yawn*

What goes around comes around. I'm waiting for the time, which is inevitable, that all of the resistors of this presidency will get exactly what they've been dishing out. I doubt highly that they'll be able to take it. Or even survive it.

I don't think trump wins in 2020

Well we can see how much the president loves to be probed these days.

It's gonna be fun to see Trump in jail.
