Firtash profits from an extraordinary arrangement that no Ukrainian government has changed, despite appeals from Naftogaz and Western officials - a govt decree allows Firtash to buy gas at a cheap discount and sell it through intermediaries for big profits

Week 152 ...we have covered that the potency of his tweets have had decreased, both in impact and visibility, as his time in office wears on. Also, notably, the media coverage of Trump’s frenzied tweeting has dropped off theweeklylist.org/weekly-list/we… via @Amy_Siskind
@Amy_Siskind On Saturday, Politico reported U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson ordered the White House to preserve records of all of Trump’s dealings with foreign leaders, including his interactions with Ukraine.
@Amy_Siskind On Saturday, Trump called for Sen. Mitt Romney’s impeachment, tweeting, without evidence, Utahns consider their vote for him “a big mistake,” and calling him “a fool” who plays into the hands of Democrats.

Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, Guiliani's buddies, got arrested last night on campaign finance violation charges. /1

wsj.com/articles/two-f…
WSJ says, "The exact nature of the charges couldn’t immediately be determined" but they're scheduled to appear in court today. /2
My speculation on the charges ...

- They acted as couriers for Giuliani in getting dirt on Joe Biden.

- They've funneled a ton of money into pro-Trump super-PACs.

Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, donors to a pro-Trump fundraising committee who helped Rudy Giuliani investigate Joe Biden, were arrested for violating campaign finance rules. They've been under investigation by the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s office. wsj.com/articles/two-f…
Don Jr., Tommy Hicks, Jr. , Parnas and Fruman in calmer times.
"Since late 2018, Mr. Fruman and Mr. Parnas have introduced Mr. Giuliani to several current and former senior Ukrainian prosecutors to discuss the Biden case."

1/16 It has begun. The GOP is spinning that the sole transcript Trump says he will release is more important than the #WhistleblowerComplaint as a tactic to insist everything should ride on this one supposed piece of evidence.

#ImpeachTrump #ImpeachmentParty #UkraineTranscript
2/16 All reports indicate this was a months-long conspiracy Trump and Giuliani were engaged in, subverting & bypassing officials who tried to stop them.

A single call does not BEGIN to give an accurate depiction of the events that lead up to this. washingtonpost.com/national-secur…
3/16 And Trump already has a shady history with releasing information.

Forget the obvious like his tax returns, school grades, and secret meetings with Putin.

Actually, a reminder of those secret meetings:

New York Times report from May on Biden, Ukraine and Burisma Holdings:

"No evidence has surfaced that the former vice president intentionally tried to help his son by pressing for the prosecutor general’s dismissal.”

nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/…
NYT - Hunter Biden was warned by associates who had experience in Ukraine to stay away from Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma Holdings, who had worked in the government of former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych.

nytimes.com/2019/05/01/us/…
Zlochevsky faced multiple internal/external investigations for money laundering, Yanukovych-era corruption, tax evasion and the granting of gas licenses.

It is unclear if/how seriously Ukraine’s fmr. prosecutor general Viktor Shokin investigated Burisma.
