Mississippi Lobbyists, Associates in Trump’s Ukraine-Russia Web

Deep dive on Russia Ukraine ties of lobbying firm BGR started 1991 by Haley Barbour, Ed Rogers, Lanny Griffith. And about Trent Lott.

Incredible story by @DonnerKay @nickjudin HT @lanitaz123

@DonnerKay @nickjudin @lanitaz123 Barbour headed RNC 1993-1997 and founded conservative National Policy Forum with John Bolton & pro-gun advocate John Lott

Barbour's book outlined a new GOP agenda, including abolishing Dept of Education, privatizing schools and undermining civil rights

@DonnerKay @nickjudin @lanitaz123 While Haley Barbour was governor of Mississippi from 2004 to 2012 BGR lobbied on behalf of Ukraine and represented Russia's Alfa Bank - Barbour received payments paid into a blind trust jacksonfreepress.com/news/2019/oct/…
@DonnerKay @nickjudin @lanitaz123 The very first article I worked on was about the Brexit crew Arron Banks, Nigel Farage - and their relationship with Mississippi governor Phil Bryant, who had worked for years for Haley Barbour. Phil Bryant introduced Nigel Farage to Donald Trump.

Venezuela doomed to lose Citgo this month unless US Treasury intervenes - expected default on $913 million PDVSA bond payment due Oct 27 would trigger transfer of Venezuelan ownership of Texas-based Citgo refinery to Russia’s Rosneft and other backers
miamiherald.com/news/nation-wo…
Risk of PDVSA defaulting on payments & triggering bond holders & Rosneft (which had provided a loan with 49.9% of Citgo as collateral) to take ownership of Citgo has been a risk for years, but seems buried under other news stories now

Et si on faisait 1 synthèse de la situation de #Trump après 1 semaine d'enquête en #impeachment et de révélations folles. Dernière en date, selon le @nytimes: 1 2nd agent du renseignement confirme sur l'#Ukraine et pourrait lui aussi lancer 1 alerte. nytimes.com/2019/10/04/us/…
@nytimes 2) La 1ère chose à dire est que #Trump, pour la 1ère fois peut-être dans sa carrière politique, n'est pas parvenu à "arrêter le saignement" (comme on dit aux #EtatsUnis) provoqué par le lancement d'alerte sur l'#Ukraine puis l'ouverture des vannes de l'enquête en #impeachment...
@nytimes 3)… il y a depuis 10 jours une cascade ininterrompue de faits révélés par le début de l'enquête en #impeachment de la Chambre et des infos de la presse qui accablent #Trump au point d'avoir fait bouger l'opinion. Substantiellement.

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn @npenzenstadler Last night a gala was held to celebrate students who committed to enlist in the U.S. military after graduation. It was held at—

#Trump makes a move toward peace in #Syria. Uproar! He tries to overthrow #Venezuela's sovereignty. No problem. The hypocrisy of the Western Liberal Left. Remember that the Left in the West was the bulwark for anti-war protest, and now they’re bloodthirsty vultures. Disgusting.
People believe it's vile that "#Russia interfered in a US election," and yet they support the US overthrowing democracy in #Venezuela. No matter your political ideology, the undeniable fact is that #Maduro was democratically elected in an election the opposition CHOSE to boycott.
You dont have to be a leftist/socialist to be against American interventionism in any sovereign state. The media is painting the events in #Venezuela as an “anti-socialism” struggle so the #Trump voters will get behind it when it’s a matter of the US meddling in foreign affairs.

Trump may be an intellectual moron, but he's a helluva puppet. He discredits rule-of-law democracy, divides us from allies, AND 2yrs after Russia's info warfare disrupted & shockingly tipped our election, the puppet STILL pushes Putin's big gaslight lie—none of it ever happened.
🚨Trump continues to advance Russian interests—NOT ours: Y'day, he pushed Putin's lie that Russia didn't "meddle." (Even GOP Senate Intel Cmte concluded Russia attacked our democracy to rig the election for Trump.) Today, Trump again floats Russia's claim to Crimea is negotiable.
MORE SHOCKING gifts to Putin: Trump orders Pentagon to analyze costs of withdrawing American troops from Germany—the only bulwark against a potential further Russian invasion of Europe. This during the height of #Russia's malign activity around the world. #maddow #inners

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
