🔥WHOA🔥

Associates of @realDonaldTrump and Rudy Giuliani tried to install new management at the top of #Ukraine’s state gas company with the goal of steering lucrative contracts to companies controlled by Trump allies.🤬

#Ukrainegate #Corruption
apnews.com/d7440cffba4940…
The plan hit a snag with the election of #Ukraine’s new president (Zelenskiy) whom Trump called in #Ukrainegate.

@SecretaryPerry soon took up the effort with Zelenskiy to install new management at the gas company (including installing one of Perry’s past political donors).🤬
⁉️WHAT⁉️

The Trump/Giuliani allies attempting to change the management at Naftogazt appear had inside knowledge of the US government’s plans in #Ukraine. They told people that Trump would replace the US ambassador to #Ukraine MONTHS before she was actually recalled to DC.🔥
🚨At the center of the Naftogaz plan were 3 businessmen: 2 **Soviet-born** #Florida real estate entrepreneurs, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, and an oil magnate from Florida, named Harry Sargeant III.
Parnas and Fruman have made hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations to the @GOP, including $325,000 to a Trump-allied PAC in 2018. This helped them “gain access to top levels of the Republican Party—including meetings with Trump at the WH and Mar-a-Lago.”🔥

#Ukrainegate
Sargeant, his wife and corporate entities tied to the family have donated **at least $1.2 million to @GOP campaigns and PACs** over the last 20 years, including $100,000 in June to the Trump Victory Fund.

TOTAL #corruption.🤬

🚨BREAKING: @realDonaldTrump pressed Rex Tillerson to help persuade DOJ to drop a criminal case against Rudy Giuliani's client, Iranian-Turk Reza Zarrab, charged w/evading US #sanctions against #Iran.

Rexxon refused b/c it was ILLEGAL & Zarrab cut a deal.
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
@realDonaldTrump Zarrab cut a deal and testified that a Turkish state-owned bank laundered BILLIONS for #Iran, helping them evade #sanctions, and Erdogan knew of and supported laundering cash for #Iran.🤬

Turkey has so far managed to avoid US penalties over the sanctions-evasion scheme.🙄
@realDonaldTrump More LIES and projection by Trump, who falsely accused @BarackObama of being "soft" on #Iran, yet Trump has schemed to give #Turkey (and his pal Erdogan) a pass for helping #Iran launder BILLIONS, in direct violation of #sanctions.

Total #corruption.🤬

🚨Senate Intel releases 2nd volume of BIPARTISAN probe of #Russian🇷🇺interference: "The IRA sought to influence the 2016 US presidential election by harming @HillaryClinton’s chances of success and supporting Donald Trump at the direction of the Kremlin."

axios.com/senate-intelli…
@HillaryClinton Senate Intel says IRA's activities were "part of a broader, sophisticated, and ongoing information warfare campaign designed to sow discord in American politics and society," and "IRA activity increased, rather than decreased, after Election Day 2016."🤬
@HillaryClinton As one of its *bipartisan* recommendations, Senate Intel calls on the Trump🇷🇺administration to "publicly reinforce the danger of attempted foreign interference in the 2020 election."

Instead, @realDonaldTrump is publicly calling for #Ukraine and #China to interfere.🤬

“In one of his 1st calls with a head of state, Trump fawned over #Russian🇷🇺President Vladimir Putin, telling the man who ordered interference in America’s 2016 election that he was a ‘great leader’ and apologizing profusely for not calling him sooner.”🤬

washingtonpost.com/politics/trump…
🔥This entire @washingtonpost article is incredibly horrifying. They interviewed *12 former WH staffers* who describe Trump's calls with foreign leaders as "anxiety-ridden."

You don't say.

@washingtonpost @thespybrief Former WH staffers worried Trump would "make promises he shouldn’t keep, endorse policies the US long opposed, commit a diplomatic blunder that jeopardized a critical alliance, or simply **pressure a counterpart for a personal favor**." Ding, ding ding.🛎️

💣 Naftogaz💣

Their aims were profit, not politics.

This circle of businessmen & GOP touted connex to Giuliani & Trump while trying to install new mgmt at the top of Naftogaz.

Their plan was to then steer lucrative contracts to companies controlled by Trump allies.
💣 Naftogaz2💣

Favorov said Parnas told him Trump planned to remove U.S. Amb Marie Yovanovitch (three mos b/4) & replace her with someone more open to aiding their business interests.

“The ambassador to Ukraine was replaced,” Giuliani said. “I did play a role in that.”
💣 Naftogaz3💣

Perry made clear that the Trump administration wanted to see the entire Naftogaz supervisory board replaced.

Perry w/ Volker & Sondland in attendance in mtg w/ Zekensky, again referenced the list of advisers (Trump donor/allies) that he had given Zelenskiy.

#Ukrainegate meet Swamp

As Giuliani was pushing Ukraine on Biden, Trump-Giuliani associates were “trying to install new management at the top of Ukraine’s massive state gas company...to steer lucrative contracts to companies controlled by Trump allies.” apnews.com/d7440cffba4940…
“The Trump and Giuliani allies ... appear to have had inside knowledge of the U.S. government’s plans in Ukraine. For example, they told people that Trump would replace the U.S. ambassador there months before she was actually recalled.”
When the AP says allies, these were very close allies.

Two of the three businessmen—Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman—are same two men who coordinated and helped Giuliani with Ukrainian officials to push for Biden and 2016 investigations.

...businessmen and Republican donors touted connections to Giuliani & Trump while trying to install new management at the top of Ukraine’s massive state gas company...steer lucrative contracts to companies controlled by Trump allies, according to 2 people with knowledge of plan.
Who all was aware of the antics prior to phone call to Zelensky?

Trump says corruption was the main concern when speaking to Zelensky...
