Here’s where Elliott Broidy’s Congressional shitbird (Ed Royce) landed, in case anyone’s curious:
LOLOL:

"One firm that has continued to represent SAUDI INTERESTS, Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, has touted its team’s “significant relationships” with the incoming Trump administration."

"Dominion Voting Systems, which was recently acquired by NY-based hedge fund Staple Street Capital, signed its first-ever fed lobbying contract in 1/19 w/Brownstein Hyatt Farber & Schreck and has paid the company at least $30K" so far to lobby Congress."

Brownstein Hyatt Farber & Schreck...who lobbies for Dominion Voting Systems on issues related to election security and monitors fed legislation for the company, gave McConnell $2K on March 31: $1K to his campaign committee and $1,000 to his joint fundraising committee."
"Brownstein Adds Former House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Ed Royce

Royce cited Brownstein Hyatt's bipartisan appeal, but it can't hurt that the firm has also been growing its slice of the federal lobbying pie."

"Royce said he is eager to help US businesses meet the “China challenge” and remain competitive on other continents. He said he plans to provide counsel/insight and dev dialogue for the firm’s clients w/public/private actors abroad to open markets..."

Nothing about RU threat.
Brownstein Hyatt Farber & Schreck (Ed Royce's new home as of 2/19), took in $2.2M from Saudis in 2018:

Rememba dis? 🧐

“Broidy boasted that he had got the chairman of the...Foreign Affairs Committee, CA Republican...Royce #CA39 to back an anti-Qatari bill. Broidy claimed, “he had shifted” Royce from being critical of SA to being critical of Qatar.”

"A month after he received the $$$, Broidy sponsored a conf on Qatar’s alleged ties to Islamic extremism. During the event...Royce...announced he was introducing legislation that would brand Qatar as a terrorist-supporting state."

Royce is right at home.

"In 7/17, two mos after Royce intro'd the bill, Broidy gave [Royce] $5,400 in campaign gifts...The donations were part of...$600,000K....Broidy has given to GOP members...and Republican PACs since he began the push for the legislation fingering Qatar..."
