1/ Thread: As we wait for the #Flynn documents, I am re-posting my timeline on Russia/Rosneft/Qatar/UAE contacts starting Fall 2015, focused on Trump and Kushner.
I'm plugging in the Cohen info. It's all based on public reporting and public documents:

2/ My original blogpost from May 14, 2018 here, as more news broke about Kushner getting bailed out of the 666 5th Ave. disaster by Qatar/UAE-linked Brookfield Properties. It turns out that Brookfield's bail-out was implausibly generous for a toxic asset. shugerblog.com/2018/05/14/rus…
3/ Some background from my @slate piece a year ago on Flynn and Mueller's plea deal. My point was that Mueller preserved state prosecutions, so that pardons or firings could not protect Flynn or Flynn Jr. I discuss their other state crim liability.

4/ I spelled out the shorter Kushner/Qatar/Rosneft theory here in March 2018 in @slate, based on the Qatar/Rosneft deal, the massive suspicious loan to Kushner from Qatar-linked Apollo, and timing of Gulf Crisis.

5/ My new @slate piece. What comes next? Whitaker seems to be avoiding obstruction. If he's learned from Nixon's Watergate AGs and other lawyers who went to jail, he should keep that up to stay out of deeper trouble. (Or recuse. Or resign and cooperate.) slate.com/news-and-polit…
