Days after the inauguration IP3 officials sent docs directly to Flynn for Trump to approve including a draft Cabinet Memo stating Trump had appointed Tom Barrack as special rep

After Trump fired Flynn the plan continued w/Harvey, Tom Barrack & Rick Gates

IP3 leaders stated in letter: “agreements by President Trump and Mohammed bin Salman have established the framework for our unique opportunity to take the next steps with IP3 and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia” & referenced partnership to acquire Westinghouse

A striking part in report says Deputy Nat'l Security Advisor McFarland said Trump told Barrack he could lead implementation of Middle East Marshall Plan - but Trump said Barrack could not be paid for his role

Why?

A bit like Manafort working for free?
