Koch-backed @AFPhq just dropped $1.7 million against Sen. Claire McCaskill (@clairecmc).

The money went to Charles Koch's PR firm "In Pursuit Of" for the media production & placement. docquery.fec.gov/cgi-bin/forms/…
@AFPhq @clairecmc It's actually a nice Trumpian grift: Get other billionaires to donate to your political group, which pays your own firm millions of dollars on ads. (Koch gives a ton to AFP, though, unlike Trump, who gave little or nothing to his alleged foundation.)

Florida judge says Rick Scott's legal team presented NO evidence of malfeasance or corruption in the Florida ballot count.

They went to court with zero evidence of what they're publicly alleging to the media & all over social media.
Amazing: Rick Scott's team's argument is that "the public has lost confidence" in the process.

Scott & other Republicans have been making evidence-free claims about Dems trying to steal the election **w/ obvious purpose of diminishing public confidence**
This is one of the suits filed by Scott— seeks to seize voting machines and ballots from Broward County *as votes are being counted.* Scott, Trump, Ron DeSantis, Lindsey Graham & other shameful Repubs have falsely claimed Dems are stealing the election by creating fake ballots.

The day after the election, not a single caravan mention on Fox News' front page. You have to scroll WAY down to mind the only mention: in the World section.
At the white supremacist Breitbart, NOT ONE story on the caravan.
Gateway Pundit? NOTHING on the caravan. Compare today (L) with a site search of "caravan" (R) which includes one from yesterday.

So it appears that Manafort's associate illegally used a "straw purchaser" to buy $50k worth of Trump inauguration tickets for at least 2, probably 3, pro-Russia Ukrainians.
ok, so one Russian in fact.
And note this, uh, fairly large sum of mystery money.

Trump is getting off Air Force One, arriving at a campaign rally in Missouri. He is playing Rihanna as he walks in.
Fix your livestream, Fox.
Trump just off Air Force One for the second time. This time, "God Bless the USA" was playing. I think Rihanna scared him into redoing his entrance.

NRA is still at it.
FEC Complaint
SENATE 2018

Josh Hawley’s Senate campaign & NRA's PAC have engaged in an elaborate scheme to conceal illegal coordination against @McCaskill4MO,
in a race that could decide control of the Senate.

mcclatchydc.com/latest-news/ar…
Hawley’s campaign employs the same people to produce ads as the NRA Political Victory Fund.

The NRA PVF has spent $1M+ on behalf of the MO GOP AG'S campaign against Sen. Claire McCaskill.

It has set records for spending by outside groups in MISSOURI. campaignlegal.org/document/clc-c…
The overlap in personnel is strong evidence of coordination between the PAC & Josh Hawley's campaign. - Brendan Fischer, dir of the fed reform program at the Nonpartisan Campaign Legal Center.

Complaint filed by CLC, co-signed by Giffords, org lead by former Rep. Gabby Giffords

🚨Russian Hackers’ Still Helping Trump🚨 Their New Target: Vulnerable Democratic Senator Claire McCaskill in Red State Missouri. Same GRU behind 2016's DNC cyber-attack targeted @clairecmc as she began her 2018 re-election campaign. thedailybeast.com/russian-hacker…
In 2016 Russian GRU targeted swing states to tip them to Trump. In 2018 Russia's targeting key Democrat McCaskill to help Trump grow his slim Republican majority. Putin is all-in on his alliance w/ Trump. I've always said, their real enemy is democracy & Dems who want to keep it.
Putin wanted Trump b/c he'd lift sanctions, normalize Putin & kleptocracy. Win-win for autocrats—Catastrophic loss for everyone else. If they succeed, down goes democracy, rule of law, our freedoms, our kids' futures. Russia's f*kery continues b/c Trump's ok w/ it & GOP needs it.
