Good timeline by @emptywheel on Sergei Prikhodko invite to Ivanka & Trump for June'16 St.Petersburg Int'l Economic Forum

I have some info to add - forum attended by George Nader, Joel Zamel, Sergei Millian, Deripaska

A month later Prikhodko met Deripaska & discussed US election
Per Mueller report Sergei Prikhodko reached out twice re: St. Petersburg International Economic Forum

Dec 2015 Mira Duma, a fashion industry contact of Ivanka's passed along Prikhodko invite for Ivanka & Trump

Mar 2016 Prikhodko sent another email invite to Rhona Graff
Photo I found in 2017 of Oleg Deripaska with Sergei Millian at the June 2016 St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (which Cohen & Trump had been invited to numerous times)
Joel Zamel & George Nader also attended June'16 St. Petersburg International Economi Forum where @RonanFarrow @adamentous reported a rep for Nader said Zamel sought a mtg & $ for social-media campaign to support Trump

after election Zamel paid Nader $2mil
A month after June 2016 St. Petersburg Int'l Economic Forum that Prikhodko invited Trump to & was attended by Deripaska - per a report by Navalny w/video from Nastya Rybka - in Aug'16 Prikhodko met Deripaska on yacht in Norway & discussed the US election

That same month August 2016 after George Nader & Joel Zamel reportedly met at St. Petersburg Int'l Economic Forum - Erik Prince arranged a meeting for Nader and Zamel to pitch Psy-Group to Don Jr. and Stephen Miller (& Zamel was later paid $2mil by Nader)
Before Forum Mar/Apr 2016 after Prikhodko email - Robert Foresman (for Russian presidential aide Anton Kobyakov) asked if Trump could speak at Forum

Foresman had been Deputy Chairman of Russia's Renaissance Capital & had worked with Rosneft's Igor Sechin
Mueller report described "concrete things" Foresman wanted to discuss in person & was uncomfortable discussing over "unsecure email" including the forum invite, Foresman's perspectives on Russia policy & details of a Ukraine plan supported by a US think tank EastWest Institute
Btw - there's odd side-story on Mira Duma who has cameo in Mueller report sending invite from Sergei Prikhodko to friend Ivanka & Trump

Miroslava Duma was target of fashion industry scandal alleging Russian $ laundering & more by "Kiev Fashion Resistance"

This @emptywheel piece describes how Viktor Boyarkin was a conduit for info from Manafort/Kilimnik to Deripaska & he was notably sanctioned by US same time as IRA entities.

Mueller reported Manafort met Deripaska advisor Georgiy Oganov in 2017 /thread
There's been little reporting on Mueller's mention of Georgiy (aka Georgy) Oganov before @emptywheel piece👆🏼

Thread below has some info I found on Oganov, including that he was in discussions in 2005 with Deripaska & Dmitry Simes about creating US-based Russian-funded think tank
Mar'17 @ZarinaZabrisky story noted Dmitry Simes moved from USSR to US, was informal Nixon advisor, set up precursor to Center for the National Interest. 2005 Simes reportedly met Deripaska & Gleb Pavlosky about creating DC-based Russia-funded think tank

More detail in this thread
Buried bombshell in this story:

In the summer of 2016, Deutsche Bank’s software flagged a series of transactions involving Kushner's real estate company - a review of transactions showed that money had moved from Kushner Companies to Russian individuals

Ex-Fugees member Pras Michel rules out plea deal related to charges that he conspired with fugitive Malaysian financier Jho Low, at center of 1MDB case, to illegally funnel foreign campaign contributions into 2012 US presidential election, by @hsu_spencer
washingtonpost.com/local/legal-is…
A civil forfeiture complaint last year alleged Michel & an ex-Justice dept official moved $ to support lobbying effort to end 1MDB investigation. Former RNC finance co-chair Elliott Broidy, aka Individual No 1, was involved, but has not been charged.
washingtonpost.com/local/legal-is…
I'm amazed Elliott Broidy hasn't been charged related to lobbying on behalf of Jho Low and 1MDB. He and his wife's law firm received millions for work they did related to the case. Perhaps he's cooperating or working on a plea deal?

(THREAD) Media misreporting of the Mueller Report in the lead-up to its release has reached a fevered pitch—and could change the course of U.S. history by misstating the Report's significance. Please retweet widely this explanation of the five gravest errors U.S. media is making.
1/ ERROR: The media says the Obstruction part of the Report is what really matters, and the part Trump and his allies are most worried about.

REALITY: The part of the Report on Obstruction is of limited significance; the focus of media attention should be the rest of the Report.
2/ EXPLANATION: We already know the Obstruction portion of the Report is largely based on *public records and events*—meaning, most Americans who care about the Report at all are already familiar with the broad strokes of the Obstruction case. But the problem is bigger than that.

Just a reminder that internet @george_nader_ has not tweeted since July 30, 2018. Nader worked for AIPAC, Bush Sr, Maliki, Prince, MBZ, MBS, Kushner and Bannon. He allegedly did bribes, arms deals, peace deals, war deals and hostage deals, #Impressive1099 middleeasteye.net/news/exclusive…
Understand @george_nader_ by reading the leaked Broidy emails. Nader is a long time bagman, asset for hire, creepy little kiddy fiddling glad-hander that goes back to the Iran Contra gig and is the key to understanding the next chapter of the Mueller saga and foreign influence.
If @mehdirhasan had known the background of the players in the Aug 3 Trump tower meeting Zamel (wikistrat) and Nader (2010) first met his mind would have been blown. Here is some classic Erik Prince testimony under oath and pure arrogance from 2010. scribd.com/document/60265…

.@mehdirhasan absolutely nails Erik Prince on the August 3, 2016 meeting at Trump Tower with George Nader, Joel Zamel, Don Jr and Stephen Miller, which Prince conveniently omitted from his HPSCI testimony
(NYT story on the meeting )
Journalism at its finest: direct, prepared, persistent.

Did Blackwater’s Erik Prince lie to Congress about a Trump Tower meeting during the 2016 campaign? @mehdirhasan asked him (with video of full interview) interc.pt/2Cd5ql6
Erik Prince's perjured testimony before the House Intelligence Committee, November 30, 2017.

"Yard sign."

There is simply no question left—*none whatsoever*—that the Trump campaign was secretly negotiating future U.S. foreign policy throughout the 2016 campaign in order to win covert (and illegal) financial and other support from Russia, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Hungary, Israel, and Egypt.
2/ That Trump knew this was wrong is shown in substantial part by the fact that he used proxies not directly associated with the campaign—Flynn, Prince, Trump Jr., George Nader, Joel Zamel, Mohammed Dahlan, and others—to conduct the negotiations. But he slipped up several times.
3/ He let his son admit Nader, Prince, and Zamel to Trump Tower in August 2016. He let Papadopoulos overstep by coordinating his September 2016 meeting with Egypt's Al-Sissi while giving interviews about sanctions with Russian media. He permitted secret negotiations with Russia.

#Trump en meeting dans le Montana suggère son approbation au représentant Gianforte pour avoir violenté et cassé les lunettes de @JacobsBen journaliste du @guardian. En pleine polémique sur la tribune du @nytimes rappel: pour #Trump, c'est 1 guerre à mort contre le #journalisme.
2) Et dans le même meeting, #Trump a accusé le @nytimes de haute trahison pour avoir publié la tribune anonyme contre lui. Il n'a cessé de faire huer la #presse par 1 salle chauffée à blanc...
3) Cette "radicalisation" du discours de #Trump sur la #presse interroge sur l'avenir des relations entre citoyens US et #journalisme, à court terme (la campagne électorale à venir n'est-elle pas celle de tous les dangers pour des reporters à qui il accroche 1 cible dans le dos?)

#Trump multiplie les #sanctions économiques : contre l'#Iran, la #Russie, la #Chine. Or il s'agit là d'une vieille stratégie économiques et commerciale que les consuls de Lübeck savent déjà mettre en oeuvre en 1358... avec un succès limité. Petit thread du jour, à dérouler ⬇️ !
Au milieu du XIVe siècle, les villes de la Hanse, une alliance de cités marchandes d'Allemagne, dominent le marché européen. Leurs marchands contrôlent le commerce de la laine, du poisson, du bois...
En 1358, la Hanse se réunit à Lübeck pour prendre des mesures contre la ville de Bruges, accusée de ne pas respecter les "privilèges" dont jouissent les marchands hanséates, de multiplier les taxes... Bref, de ne pas la jouer fairplay !
