🚨Igor Fruman—one of @RudyGiuliani’s #Ukrainegate henchmen charged with funneling illegal #Russian🇷🇺money into Trump and @GOP campaign coffers—has hired one of Paul Manafort’s defense lawyers.

Rudy met with Manafort IN PRISON to scheme about #Ukraine.🤬

politico.com/news/2019/10/2…
Reminder that Dmitry Firtash—a Ukrainian with deep ties to the #Russian🇷🇺mob—was Paul Manafort’s former “business partner” and also bankrolled Rudy’s #Ukrainegate henchmen.🧐

#TrumpRussia #ImpeachTrump
"Blanche, now a partner at the Manhattan-based law firm Cadwalader, Wickersham & Taft, declined to comment when asked about any connection between his representation of Manafort and that of Fruman. Blanche also declined to say how his role defending Fruman came about."🧐

🔥QUID PRO QUO🔥

At least 3 officials—Bill Taylor, Fiona Hill, Gordon Sondland—told @HouseDemocrats: a WH visit for #Ukraine’s president was explicitly conditioned on his agreeing to investigations that could help Trump’s re-election.

#Ukrainegate
nbcnews.com/politics/trump…
🚨When Trump sycophant Gordon Sondland was asked point blank, under oath, whether that constituted a "quid pro quo," even he did not dispute it.

👋🏼Hello, @GOP. Got your #QuidProQuo right here!

#Ukrainegate @SpeakerPelosi @RepAdamSchiff @tedlieu
After ~65 hours of testimony — along with public comments from Trump and his cronies — a “portrait is emerging of a #QuidProQuo that evolved over time, with Trump **progressively upping the ante when his demands were not met**.”

What a baby.🙄

🚨BREAKING: in late August, the WH trade rep withdrew a recommendation to restore some trade privileges to #Ukraine after John Bolton warned that Trump likely would oppose any act that benefited #Ukraine.

BOLTON must testify‼️

#Ukrainegate @RepAdamSchiff
washingtonpost.com/business/econo…
🔥This abrupt reversal on #Ukraine trade occurred in the SAME time frame that Trump and his cronies withheld $391,000,000 of aid to #Ukraine to pressure Ukraine to investigate his political rivals.

It is not clear if Trump directed Bolton to intervene or was even aware.🧐
Bolton’s intervention came as ”Trump was telling WH aides that any assistance for #Ukraine depended upon (its president) publicly stating that his government would investigate Hunter Biden’s role as a board member of...Burisma,” according to Ambassador Bill Taylor’s testimony.🔥

🚨BREAKING: @HouseDemocrats are investigating @DevinNunes’ lackey—Kash Patel—a former @GOP staffer on @HouseIntel who now works on the National Security Council. Kash is suspected of back channeling #Ukraine documents to @realDonaldTrump.🤬

#Ukrainegate
nytimes.com/2019/10/23/us/…
Fiona Hill—NSC’s former top expert on #Russian🇷🇺affairs—testified to @HouseDemocrats last week that she believed Nunes’ lackey Patel was improperly getting involved in #Ukraine policy and was back channeling information to Trump.🧐

#Ukrainegate #Coverup @thespybrief
Hill “grew alarmed” when the WH executive secretary’s office told her that Trump wanted to talk to Patel & identified him as the NSC’s “#Ukraine director,” a position held by one of Hill’s deputies. Trump wanted to meet with Patel “about documents he had received on Ukraine.”🔥

RUSSIAN COLLUSION

From my understanding:

1) The Hillary Clinton campaign hired a lawfirm called FusionGPS & a former British spy named Christopher Steele, to contact the Russian sources, to dig up dirt on Donald #Trump and his campaign...

#MAGA #QAnon #SpyGate #RussiaHoax
RUSSIAN COLLUSION

From my understanding:

2) FusionGPS & Steele, wrote a series of memos (called the Steele Dossier) outlining the unverified stories they collected from Russian sources...

#MAGA #QAnon #SpyGate #RussiaHoax
RUSSIAN COLLUSION

From my understanding:

3) Nellie Orr, a “former” CIA agent, working for FusionGPS, sent the Steele Dossier to her Husband Bruce Orr at the (Obama) Dept of Justice to try and get an investigation started against #Trump.

At issue ia 100K payment from Jho Low via Larry Davis ➡️filled RNC/Trump’s coffers.

Davis’ parents in law pleaded guilty during a Clinton-era financing scandal.

B/c Low is not a US citizen, he is barred from making direct or indirect donations to US pols or to PACs.

1. If Mueller sent out target letters to Trump insiders, then @RealDonaldTrump knows that indictments are coming. He looked absolutely fried in Paris. Not to cut him slack but he looked like somebody with Cholera.
2. #Manafort's plea required him to cooperate with "the Government and other law enforcement authorities identified by the Government." Fed R Crim P 6(e) authorizes #Mueller with #Rosenstein's permission to share his grand jury files with state prosecutors.
3. So I'll be shocked if by now there are not several indictments already handed down in state courts. Will also be shocked if, while @POTUS was traveling, Whitaker was not briefed on them & shared the secrets with Trump whose system is starting to react to the massive stress.

#Manafort charging document for today's guilty plea includes details of his planting disinformation in US press to smear political rivals of his pro-Russia clients in Ukraine. Eg "Plant some stink on Tymo"—painting a female rival as a criminal who paid for murder. Sound familiar?
Manafort had used the same propaganda smear tactics in Ukraine that Trump rolled out in his campaign for president in 2016. Manafort not only had Tymo soliciting murder. He pushed tribal divisions, using "Obama Jews" & anti-Semitism to tarnish her. assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4883…
#Manafort manipulated the media with disinformation and then used those planted news stories to manipulate US govt: "I have someone pushing it on the NY Post. Bada bing bada boom…The Jewish community will take this out on Obama on election day if he does nothing.”

Together, they paint a picture of the "America First" campaign being anything but, of a campaign staffed with liars, crooks, and grifters ...
1) Trump's campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, has both been found guilty at trial and pleaded guilty to charges that include money laundering, conspiracy against the United States, and that he was working as an unregistered foreign agent for pro-Putin Ukrainians. ...
