Two stories today about UAE selling off two huge NYC real estate investments

One story is about Abu Dhabi government fund & Tishman Speyer putting the Chrysler Building on the market - Abu Dhabi Investment Council had paid $800 million for a 90% stake
therealdeal.com/2019/01/09/abu…
And a majority stake in 330 Madison Ave owned by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority is heading to the sales market at pricing expected to reach nearly $1 billion
nypost.com/2019/01/08/mos…
I don't know that these two sales have any significance, but the size of the deals seems notable and worth keeping an eye on.

Senator Grassley has the entire case laid out in this list of names-- 👇 I've spent the better part of 3 days looking at connections. Was it an anti-Magnitsky Act campaign all along? Framed by Russians with DNC, U.K. & Aussie help? Grassley knows. #ReleaseTheMemo 👌👍🐍

I want to do a thread on this, but it would require a hundred or more. It's that complicated. In Senator Grassley's list there is a tale that will shock the world. Someone more skilled than I am is going to sell a gazillion books if this story is ever fully revealed.
