💰Update - The Beltway Bandit

Elliott Broidy is arguably the swampiest Trump swamp creature, in a swamp filled with avaricious swamp monsters peddling foreign influence ops for hire (big bucks) with the goal of shaping US policy to benefit foreign governments.
#Broidy
Post 2016 elex, Broidy positioned himself as a premier broker of influence & access to the new adm & a financial oppty to mix his int’l biz with his efforts to influence US foreign policy, which is why he is the subject of federal scrutiny involving a number of global scandals.
‼️How a Trump Ally Tested the Boundaries of DC’s Influence Game

George Nader, the disgraced & recently indicted child sex trafficker & child porn aficionado is in the thick of Team Trump global shenanigans from the notorious Seychelles meet to Qatar Blockade to Psy Group & more.

MAIN THREAD
Trump’s lack of prep’n for victory & disorganized transition created a vacuum that, as RU/ME sought out access & influence, was quickly filled by a number of people eager to portray themselves as access brokers or to generate personal biz opportunities.
nytimes.com/2019/04/20/us/…
But prior to the 2016elex in addition to RU’s efforts to influence the American electorate in favor of Trump, ME foreign actors also assisted w/ the SocMed influence ops to help Trump & harm Cruz/HRC.

💰1MDB Global Scandal💰

What is 1MDB?

Short for 1Malaysia Development Berhad (which means limited), the fund was set up in 2009 by then-Prime Minister Najib Razak to invest government revenues in real estate

MAIN THREAD #1MDB
Questions arose in early 2015 when the fund failed to meet payments on $11 billion in debt.

🔑The WSJ then published documents showing that about $700M from 1MDB-linked entities had ended up in Najib’s personal bank accounts just before elections in 2013.
latimes.com/world/la-fg-ma…
By far the largest transactions that flowed into Malaysian PM Najib’s accounts were two deposits of $620M & $61M in March 2013, during a heated election campaign in Malaysia.
