🚨BREAKING🚨

Mercury Public Affairs (former @GOP Rep. Vin Weber), Podesta Group (Democrat lobbyist Tony Podesta) and Skadden Arps (former Obama WH counsel Greg Craig) are under federal investigation in #SDNY for their #Ukraine work with Paul Manafort.🔥

nyti.ms/2UJUSAY
Manafort hired Skadden to produce a smear of Yulia Tymoshenko (the opponent of Ukraine’s pro-#Russia🇷🇺leader), and hired Vin Weber’s and Podesta’s lobbying shops to push the false smear of Tymoshenko.

Manafort paid them MILLIONS via a bank in Cyprus.

NO ONE filed #FARA.🙄
Skadden now admits they were a FOREIGN AGENT for pro-#Russia🇷🇺leaders in #Ukraine and recently settled with DOJ and agreed to cooperate FULLY.

Gates (Manafort’s bagman) is cooperating, too.

Meaning: the Feds have receipts and witnesses.😎

van der Zwaan (a Dutch/#Russian🇷🇺 who worked at Skadden, pleaded GUILTY to lying.

And Lordy, there are tapes‼️🤣

Kilimnik—“former” GRU #Russian🇷🇺intelligence officer/ Manafort partner—was intimately involved with the scheme.

Kilimnik has close ties with Oleg Deripaska.🙄

The lawyers (Skadden), lobbyists (Podesta), and former congressman (Weber) did NOT file #FARA.

The #TrumpRussia🇷🇺probe is spread over MULTIPLE juridictions, including Mueller/DC, EDVA, and #SDNY, so firing one guy won’t stop this train.😎

Justice is coming for all of those who sold our country for cash‼️

🔥Sergei Millian–the Belarusian former partner of @realDonaldTrump and "Source D/E" in the #SteeleDossier–offered George Papadopoulos a lucrative "job," but only if PapaD got a WH job.🤨

@RepAdamSchiff says interviewing Millian is "of deep interest."😎

washingtonpost.com/politics/serge…
Millian was the source for #Steele's allegation of a "well developed conspiracy btwn Trump and #Russian🇷🇺leadership," overseen by MANAFORT, and said Trump had relationships w/#Russian🇷🇺officials who were giving Trump damaging info on HRC👉🏼"very helpful."

Millian also was #Steele's source for the salacious allegations that #Russia🇷🇺had incriminating sexual kompromat on Trump (the "pee-pee" tape).

💣BOOM💣

@GOP operative Paul Erickson—boyfriend of convicted #Russian🇷🇺spy Maria Butina — INDICTED on 11 federal counts, including wire #fraud and money laundering.

Butina cooperated in the investigation AGAINST Erickson, who PAID her college tuition.🤣

google.com/amp/s/rapidcit…
Erickson helped arrange a secret backchannel between #Russia🇷🇺and **key @GOP leaders**, including @realDonaldTrump’s campaign.🔥

How many people in the #GOP are FREAKING OUT, now that Erickson is in the barrel⁉️

🔥WHOA🔥

@SpicyFiles has been ALL OVER the Erickson-#Russian🇷🇺honeypot saga.

According to court documents, Erickson’s case involves MULTIPLE defendants, most likely #NRA officials, who traveled to #Russia🇷🇺on a #treason junket.

🔥Veselnitskaya’s seat behind @McFaul was reserved by a @GOP consultant w/close ties to the Trump campaign. Lanny Wiles (his wife chaired Trump’s campaign in FL) reserved the seat at the request of Rinat Akhmetshin w/whom he was working on SANCTIONS.🤨

washingtonpost.com/world/russian-…
“Akhmetshin continued receiving checks and wires from Wiles Consulting, a Florida-based company controlled by Lanny Wiles, a longtime Republican operator. Those payments, which began in January 2016, extended to April 2017, and totaled $72,500.”

buzzfeednews.com/article/emmalo…
Another “weird coincidence.” A @GOP operative (Wiles, whose wife CHAIRED Trump’s campaign in FL) saved a seat for the #Russian🇷🇺lawyer/SPY (Veselnitskaya) at a Congressional hearing on #sanctions, and Wiles PAID “former” #Russian spy Akhmetshin $72,500 in 2016-7.🙄

Steve Schmidt is a long time #GOP campaign operative who's now working for Mercury Public Affairs.

Mack shows how there's an agreement with Oleg Deripaska's company & Mercury Public Affairs. The oligarch pays them over $100k a month, but that's the beginning of this story.
Mercury Public Affairs is also linked to Paul #Manafort's pro-Russian party lobbying efforts in 2015. Manafort pumped $2.2M into Podesta's group and Mercury.

You know that Chinese telecom company that Donald lifted the sanctions on in July 2018? ZTE? Guess who is their PR firm? If you guessed Mercury, you're right.
Back in May, the company started giving Mercury $75k a month.

NEW: @TheJusticeDept's agreement to end its investigation into illegal MANAFORT-connected lobbying by @SkaddenArps suggests some lawyers & lobbyists involved could still face legal exposure.

The filing is quite critical of ex-Obama WH counsel GREG CRAIG. nytimes.com/2019/01/17/us/…
NEW: Federal prosecutors in recent weeks have been asking witnesses about the participation of GREG CRAIG, as well as the @PodestaGroup & Mercury Public Affairs in a lobbying campaign orchestrated by MANAFORT & GATES for Russia-aligned Ukrainian interests. nytimes.com/2019/01/17/us/…
🔥🔥 I asked YULIA TYMOSHENKO about the report MANAFORT commissioned to justify her jailing by a Russia-aligned rival: “It’s a pity that such a well-known company like @SkaddenArps even considered to take this case...This is a dirty, dirty, dirty contract” nytimes.com/2019/01/17/us/…

Ha! I just happened to tweet about Mr. Craig today. Imagine that!

“Federal prosecutors in Manhattan are considering criminal charges against former WH counsel Greg Craig, who served during the first year of the Obama administration.”
“...as part of an investigation into former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, according to a new report.”

You must remember that the secret to all of this is not to be afraid of fear. When you can really allow yourself to be afraid, and you don't resist the experience of fear, you are truly beginning to master fear.

1. I have no doubt that Obama will be indicted and found guilty of at least THREE major felonies, just from his central involvement in the framing of Donald J Trump

The atty who was charged by MUELLER today, Alex Van Der Zwaan, was 1 of 8 @SkaddenArps attys involved in writing a report commissioned by MANAFORT that whitewashed YANUKOVYCH's record, according to Ukrainian prosecutors. Full story TK, but here's context: nytimes.com/2017/09/21/us/…
NEW: @SkaddenArps distancing itself from indicted lawyer who worked on Ukraine corruption report commissioned by MANAFORT. Skadden statement: "The firm terminated its employment of Alex van der Zwaan in 2017 & has been cooperating with authorities in connection with this matter."
NEW: Ukrainian prosecutors allege that atty indicted today by MUELLER, Alex van der Zwaan, worked with ex-OBAMA WH counsel Greg Craig at behest of MANAFORT to write report clearing YANUKOVYCH of prosecuting rival TYMOSHENKO for political purposes. nytimes.com/2018/02/20/us/…
