1/6 - Russian PLAYERS in the Trump/Kushner orbit just keep popping up. Here's a guy who has written more than 50 articles for the Observer in NYC SINCE NOVEMBER 2014, most all attacking critics of the Kremlin or Putin or promoting Kremlin propaganda. observer.com/author/mikhail… 
2/6 Why would the Observer feel the need to publish stories like this for it's local New York City audience SINCE NOVEMBER 2014? But beyond the Observer, he has almost no other presence online or in public records.
3/6 According to his Observer BIO: Mikhail Klikushin attended Novosibirsk State University, and received a graduate degree in Russian history before emigrating to the United States TO WORK AT THE OBSERVER IN NOVEMBER 2014.
4/6 The Observer, which is owned by Donald Trump's son-in-law and close advisor, Jared Kushner, has stood by the articles written by Mikhail Klikushin, but labeled them 'Opinion' after a @BuzzFeed News story raised questions in March of last year.
