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
medium.com/mosaic2/nixon-…
Article by @YFelshtinsky noted 2005 story on Dmitry Simes, Deripaska & Pavlosky included that Deripaska spokesman Georgy Oganov said there were many discussions on creating think tank among Deripaska & people at Nixon Center (precursor to Simes' CNI)

As @emptywheel noted Manafort denied mtg Georgiy Oganov in Spain Jan'17. Then Manafort said mtg arranged by lawyers about Pericles lawsuit. Other evidence indicates Kilimnik & Boyarkin arranged mtg w/Manafort Oganov to help recreate friendship w/Deripaska
emptywheel.net/2019/05/18/i-h…
Manafort denied mtg Oganov & lied about mtg purpose. In '05 Oganov was involved in Deripaska & Simes discussion about Russia-funded DC-based think tank. Mueller rpt covers Simes, who hosted/edited Trump's first foreign policy speech, extensively-134 times

Georgy Oganov's Bloomberg profile said he was VP at M.I.C. Industries Inc. (U.S.A.)1975-1992 (co based in VA created by Michael Ansari)
micindustries.com/Michael_Ansari… …

Oganov listed director of PBN Holdings LLC (had joint venture w/Hill & Knowlton Strategies)
bloomberg.com/research/stock…
Oganov was director PBN Holdings which worked for UDAR Party in 2013 on Ukrainian presidential campaign of Vitali Klitschko (who later became Mayor of Kiev)

Others who worked w/Klitschko: Manafort, Sam Patten, Giuliani & reportedly Firtash supported him

Georgy Oganov was also mentioned by Alexey Navalny as likely one of the people in leaked audio that allegedly recorded Oleg Deripaska's associates plotting the arrest of Nastya Rybka & others who had dirt on Deripaska
meduza.io/en/feature/201…
As @emptywheel reported Mueller noted Sergei Prikhodko invite to Ivanka & Trump to June'16 St.Petersburg Int'l Economic Forum

Prikhodko later met Deripaska & Nastya Rybka threatened to leak info on their mtg

Navalny said Oganov discussed arresting Rybka

I used to detain migrants at the border. Now I help them

A thoughtful insightful piece by @BuddJenn who was a border patrol agent from 1995 to 2001 and now volunteers at a shelter for asylum seekers and provides a unique perspective on immigration issues

"This border and the people who come to it are deserving of our compassion and friendship... The truth that I learned nearly two decades ago was and is that investing in our border communities will make us far safer than militarizing will." @BuddJenn southernborder.org/i_used_to_deta…
"It is way past time that those in power listen to the border residents, to the immigration experts and community organizers and leaders that have been down here for generations trying to hold together these communities." @BuddJenn southernborder.org/i_used_to_deta…

"If we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so"

- Robert Mueller

One problem with saying the report speaks for itself... is that we don't have access to the full report
"the constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting president of wrong doing" 👇🏼

This thread contains images with passages from the Mueller Report. I will add new ones as I create them.

If you want, share them on Facebook, Instagram, print on fliers or t-shirts or postcards.

I want to show America what's in that report.

Trump Campaign Manager Paul #Manafort arrived in Judge Ellis’ courtroom in Eastern District of Virginia in a green jumpsuit, walking with a cane. He will be sentenced in a few minutes on 8 counts of financial crimes. He also awaits sentencing in DC by Judge Amy Berman Jackson.
The guy who promised the best people and "extreme vetting"—didn't even google Paul #Manafort?? Remember that when Trump apologists say he didn't know about Manafort's years of dirty work for world tyrants. I've always felt Trump hired him BECAUSE of his work for Putin & Russians.

BIG: Russian ex-spy pressured Manafort over debts to oligarch Deripaska. This important report from @shustry is a chilling reminder of the dark world of Russian espionage, diplomacy and arms trade at the heart of the Trump-Russia scandal. Our world now. bit.ly/2LGSqb1?utm_so…
"He owed us a lot of money. And he was offering ways to pay it back"—Viktor Boyarkin on #Manafort. Yet another Russian spy with leverage over the Trump campaign. This corroborates earlier reports of "private briefings" to Putin pal Deripaska…who was just gifted sanctions relief.
Boyarkin did more than collect Deripaska's debts. He worked w/ Manafort since 2006—"the year Deripaska asked both of them to help redraw the map of Eastern Europe." 😱Manafort has consistently worked for Putin/Russia's interests & against US interests. In 2016, on Trump campaign.

#Manafort charging document for today's guilty plea includes details of his planting disinformation in US press to smear political rivals of his pro-Russia clients in Ukraine. Eg "Plant some stink on Tymo"—painting a female rival as a criminal who paid for murder. Sound familiar?
Manafort had used the same propaganda smear tactics in Ukraine that Trump rolled out in his campaign for president in 2016. Manafort not only had Tymo soliciting murder. He pushed tribal divisions, using "Obama Jews" & anti-Semitism to tarnish her. assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4883…
#Manafort manipulated the media with disinformation and then used those planted news stories to manipulate US govt: "I have someone pushing it on the NY Post. Bada bing bada boom…The Jewish community will take this out on Obama on election day if he does nothing.”
