@RighteousBabe4 Russia's Sputnik setting up shop in Edinburgh, just after Trump's trip to #TrumpScotland for #Brexit 6/24/16. 👆 Trump met with Rupert Murdoch, #Brexiteers, and had people like Paul Ryan in tow on that trip:

"For the first time, we confirm through bal of pymts data the popular belief that RU money has flooded into the UK in recent yrs...

"Hidden inflows ... raise major ?s over the UK's role as a refuge for int'l capital flight and the need for better data/more rigorous oversight..."
