Firtash was financing Parnas and Fruman's activities.

Parnas paid Trump's free lawyer Giuliani $500K. Ergo, Firtash was financing Giuliani's dirty work for Trump in Ukraine.

Reminds me of another Firtash bagman: Trump's free campaign manager, Manafort.

Firtash was “financing” the activities of Fruman and Parnas, who paid $500,000 to Rudy Giuliani, who was working for Trump for "free."

Giuliani has met with Manafort, whose pro-Putin dirty work in Ukraine was financed by Russia mobster, Firtash, who also financed:
-Kyiv mayor Klitschko's campaign, which Giuliani advised and is now being investigated for
-Parnas and Fruman's activities

NEW: How Dmitry Firtash, a mobbed up Ukrainian oligarch wanted by US authorities, helped Giuliani attack Biden.

Firtash’s lawyers passed documents that smear Mueller and Biden to associates of Trump lawyer Giuliani, who presented them on Fox News.

Trump’s effort to smear Biden has overlapped with the interests of Dmytro Firtash, the Russian mob-connected oligarch who bankrolled Manafort's pro-Putin dirty work in Ukraine––which included a black ops smear campaign of Yanukovych's opponent.

Giuliani recently met with DOJ’s criminal division chief to discuss a foreign bribery case for a “very, very sensitive” client, who, as it turns out, is Firtash [via @lrozen].

Trump's personal lawyer is representing a top-tier comrade of the Russian mob.

mentions @lrozen Firtash, the mobbed-up Ukrainian linked to illegal donations to Trump's inaugural, gave Giuliani dirt on Trump's political opponents in exchange for Giuliani's help in getting DOJ to drop his case.

This is a criminal conspiracy.

mentions @lrozen NEW: Chicago federal prosecutors had previously come across Giuliani associates Parnas and Fruman as they pursued their case against Dmytro Firtash, a Ukrainian oligarch with ties to the Russian mob, and have reached out to their SDNY counterparts.

mentions @lrozen "After taking on Firtash’s case [in July], Victoria Toensing and Joe diGenova secured a rare face-to-face meeting with Attorney General Barr and other DOJ officials to argue the against the charges."

Toensing's son Brady joined the DOJ in June.

mentions @lrozen Toensing & diGenova claim Firtash met Parnas in Jun but has “no business relationship” with him or Fruman.

Mar 2019: Parnas & Fruman press Naftogaz officials to drop disputes with Firtash which would provide Firtash a $1B windfall.

mentions @lrozen During a Mar 2019 meeting, Parnas and Fruman pressed officials at Ukraine’s state-run gas company, Naftogaz, to drop financial disputes with Firtash [which would have netted Firtash $1B].

A senior Naftogaz official described the meeting as a shakedown.

mentions @lrozen NEW: Rudy Giuliani now admits he "did sort of look at" Dmitry Firtash for info.

Giuliani claimed he never had anything to do with Firtash’s case but Firtash bankrolled at least one piece of propaganda Giuliani held up on FOX News to smear Biden.
