“
Hill had been the top Russia expert in the White House, a senior director of the national security council (NSC), but the president seems to have been only vaguely aware of her importance, mistaking her early on for a secretary. “

Of course he did.

And a very handy little clip via the excellent @shady_inf0 spelling out the difference between Trump’s attorney, Giuliani and HIS interventions in Ukraine issue compared to Bush and Obama’s attornies who she did not even know

Then Firtash.

The UK’s intelligence agencies were aware that Donald Trump may have been compromised by the Kremlin but Theresa May’s Gov – including then-foreign secretary Boris Johnson – chose not to pursue the matter for fear of offending the US president, a new book claims.

#S&IReport
They knew.

They knew.

The politicians refused to act. As they are now #RussianReport
Simpson said Russian influence had wholly “compromised” the British political establishment. “There is a wilful blindness and determination to look the other way. ....
.......No-one in power wants to have that conversation,” he warned.”

This story links into a much wider story involving corruption both within and outwith Malta.

I shall attach a thread from last December. And I shall also attach a thread from @Turloughc who has tracked associations of people within the story with Farage.
Here is my thread on an interview towards the end of last year.
And here is @Turloughc thread.

I was interested to discover that Farage’s/EDFF aide, Kevin Ellul-Bonici, who was thought to be a Russian asset in promoting literature from the Russian Embassy in the EU Parliament, had been an Inspector in the Maltese Economic Crimes Unit.

My my.

As if we have not been blessed enough with Royal Family benefits this week with Prince Andrew, now we seee unfold before us the “benefits” of the Toey Party having Camilla Parker Bowles’ nephew, Ben Elliott as Tory Party co-chair and fundraiser.

Buy elections too.
A bit more about Ben Elliott here.

But, apart from the Quintessential Group of companies he also owns Hawthorne Associates that helped Lord Barker, Chair of Deripaska’s EN+, get the EN/Deripaska Mueller sanctions lifted in the USA.

How proud they all just be.
Just seen this. The gap is even bigger than the article and thread suggest because the Tories ALSO received c £4mill in under the limit small donations in the same period Labour received £1m.

@RobManess is correct. An NSC staffer works whatever the president is interested in. If a good staffer is asked the wrong question, you provide both the answer asked AND the answer for the question that should have been asked. “Not my area.” is the classic excuse used by many
senior (high GS/SES/ES) staffers to stall the boss’s agenda staffers disagree with. The NSC doesn’t work for the President; NSC is an extension of the President. Senior federal employees are not suppose to bring their personal politics to work.
I served 7 presidents & all had policies I disagreed with. More effort was on those policies because I needed to see the President’s viewpoint to effect policy. Anybody who can’t do so needs to resign or be fired. I’m sworn to the Constitution, not to the “Temp” in the Oval.

@charliekirk11 "The Inspector General shall not disclose the identity of the employee … unless he determines such disclosure is unavoidable during the course of the investigation ..."
He is the only official specifically prohibited from identifying the #whistleblower.

@charliekirk11 I’ve suggested that #AlexanderVindman’s twin brother #YevgenyVindman aka #EugeneVindman is the primary #Whistleblower.

Today seems like a good day to remember that Jared Kushner initially reported *zero* meetings with foreign officials on his security clearance forms.

He later admitted to at least 100 undisclosed contacts w/ foreign officials.

... and he still has top secret clearance.
And this --> Feb. 2018: @washingtonpost reported that Jared Kushner, who lacked full security clearance at the time, had "put in more requests for U.S. intelligence information than any White House staffer not working for the National Security Council."

wapo.st/2ExcqMV?tid=ss…
In March 2018, it was reported that after Saudi prince Mohammed bin Salman ousted his cousin, the President's Daily Brief started focusing on Saudi Arabia's political climate, including naming those opposed to MbS. Kushner took particular interest in this.
