House panel to give Trump ally Stone's transcript to Russia probeDemocrats who take control of the U.S. House of Representatives Intelligence Committee next month have signaled they plan to send Special Counsel Robert Mueller the transcripts of testimony given under oath by some of Trump's closest associates so they can be reviewed for evidence and possible falsehoods. During the 2016 campaign, longtime Republican political operative Stone posted messages on Twitter implying that he had inside knowledge of data in the possession of hackers and WikiLeaks that would embarrass the Democrats. Stone's lawyer Grant Smith said on Thursday that he sent a letter to the committee's outgoing Republican chairman requesting that the full transcript of the private Sept. 26, 2017 interview be publicly released.
