You know, the # of former Russian intelligence officers that live openly inside the United States isn't that large.

And if you've been following the Trump/Russian collusion story since last year, you already know the name of a prime candidate.....
And....I had the dates mixed up. The story about the Trump Tower meeting broke on July 8, 2017, not April.

So they managed to keep Akhmetshin's role secret for about a week.
From July 8 to July 15, the narrative was that Veselnitskaya was flying solo. Then all of a sudden a week later it's revealed this OTHER GUY was in the room too.

On June 3, 2016, Rob Goldstone emailed Trump Jr, telling him that the "Russian government attorney" was "part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump – helped along by Aras and Emin." The Russians promised damaging info that would "incriminate Hillary."
4 days later:
Donald Trump received his first intelligence briefing as a presidential nominee on August 17, 2016.

There, he was told about Russian interference/espionage in our election; the FBI had warned Trump that Russians would try to "infiltrate" his campaign. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/f…
We didn't know about the Goldstone-Jr emails or Jr's June 9th meeting w Russians til over a yr later when NYT reported it, in July 2017.
Reports suggest Mueller didn't know til around that time, too.
THE TRUMPS KNEW ABOUT RUSSIAN HELP BY AT LEAST JUNE 2016

Trump won't accept US intel on Russian hacking b/c he's a co-conspirator. Every time u hear ppl say "Trump won't accept that Russia hacked because it undermines his win," tell them that Trump knew that Russia was helping him by at least June 2016; he was denying it BEFORE he won.
Here's the email that Rob Goldstone sent Trump Jr on June 3, 2016. It EXPLICITLY says the Agalarovs were working w the Russian government to help Trump win.

As I suspected, Jr told his father about this. TRUMP KNEW about Russian help by at least June 2016
Michael Cohen says he wasn't the only witness to see Jr informing Trump about Russian election help.

So it's not just Cohen who can put a nail in Trump's coffin. There are "several others."

This will be a thread about the origins of the developer Trump chose to partner with on the advice of Felix Sater during the 2016 election. All indications are that IC Expert is a Russian-government connected entity, not a private enterprise.
As of late 2008, ownership records show that IC Expert was 99% owned by Colinsen Trading Limited, a shell company located in Cyprus. This LLC was in turn owned by Diagoras Nominees Limited.
As far as I can tell based on months of research, Diagoras is a holding company used by hundreds of wealthy Russians and Ukrainians. Most notably, "Putin's banker" Sergei Pugachev allegedly used Diagoras to launder $200M of state money. rbc.ru/magazine/2016/…

FBI probing the NRA for using *illegal* #Russian🇷🇺money to help Trump win‼️

The NRA reported it spent a *record $55 million* on 2016 elections, including $30 million for Trump – TRIPLE what it spent for Mitt Romney in 2012.🤨 1/

amp.mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-wo…
Even WORSE:

👉🏼Most of the $55 million was spent by an arm of the NRA that is *not required to disclose its donors*
👉🏼Two people w/close connections to the NRA said its total election spending actually was *$70 million*

2/
The gap btwn the $55 million (reported) and $70 million (actual) may be b/c independent groups are *not required to report how much they spend on Internet ads or field operations*, including get-out-the-vote efforts‼️🤬 3/
