As Giuliani worked w/Ukraine’s ext-top prosecutor Yuri Lutsenko to find damaging info on Dems - agreements were drafted (no evidence executed) in Feb to pay Giuliani Partners $200K & to pay Toensing & diGenova to help Lutsenko recover $ stolen from Ukraine
washingtonpost.com/politics/giuli…
An April agreement was signed by Toensing to rep Victor Shokin, the Ukrainian prosecutor before Lutsenko - Toensing proposed for $25K a month, she and her partner would collect evidence on his firing & Biden's role

Good point from @StacyJannis that discussions overlap with Sam Kislin's efforts to retrieve $ he said was owed to him
@StacyJannis "Lutsenko, the prosecutor Giuliani spoke with extensively about Joe Biden’s son Hunter...is the same prosecutor who seized $1.5 billion held in Cyprus banks that Lutsenko said belonged to ex-President Yanukovych's "team" and Kislin now says belongs to him"

@StacyJannis Sept 30 2019 letter from Reps Schiff, Engel, Cummings to Semyon Kislin re impeachment inquiry - p3 requests docs related to efforts by Kislin, Giuliani, Parnas, Fruman diGenova, Toensing, Vitaly Pruss to pressure Ukrainian govt officials etc.

Brad Parscale's company CloudCommerce has acquired exclusive marketing rights to a database with records on 80 million faith-based individuals that will help drive their digital advertising solution called SWARM (not clear who sold database) HT @Ruven27
finance.yahoo.com/news/cloudcomm…
@Ruven27 Trump campaign led by Parscale is also partnering with Phunware where ex-Cambridge Analytica exec Brittany Kaiser is an advisor
@Ruven27 I'm not sure this is connected to CloudCommerce acquisition of database on 80 million faith-based people - but Phunware, which is working w/Trump campaign was acquired by a company Stellar Acquisition, which has a subsidiary called Faith Based Apps LLC

Inside Giuliani’s dual roles: Power-broker-for-hire and shadow foreign policy adviser - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/politics/insid…
Giuliani has bragged to other Trump allies that he has made millions of dollars since Trump took office

He also has regularly boasted about his access to Trump and the closeness of their friendship, said a senior U.S. official who interacted with Giuliani.
This examination of Giuliani’s activities is based on interviews with more than 25 of his associates, current and former administration officials and other people familiar with his work

Lutsenko said Giuliani told him he would have to hire a lobbyist to get the meeting.

“They even offered me such a company,” Lutsenko said.

Ballard or Livingston?🤔

He said that he was told it would be “impossible” for him to get the meeting without paying. #FCPA

Parnas and Fruman directed $325K to Trump's super PAC to buy access to Trumpworld.

They used that access to push for replacing the ambassador to Ukraine “with someone more open to aiding their business interests.”

And they leveraged ties to Trump to "shakedown" an energy exec.
The Ukrainian-American pair had been pushing for the ambassador's removal since at least May of 2018: just as Parnas and Fruman were directing $325K to America First Action, they were successfully pushing Rep. Pete Sessions to call for the ambassador's firing.
It is not known why Sessions, who reps Texas, met personally with the Florida-based pair. But as @by_jmiller noted, America First Action's finance chair, Roy Bailey, is close with Sessions, and the PAC would spend $3M supporting Sessions in 2018. texasobserver.org/pete-sessions-…

D's in Congress have eagerly anticipated Obama appointee, Georgetown U alum's second IG report complaining that President Trump’s appointees believe there exists a #DeepState among the unelected career staffers that is determined to thwart the president’s agenda. #CoupCabal
2. State Department IG holdover's "urgent" briefing on the Hill is currently said to be devised to set new alarm narrative of "retaliation" against #DeepState Department D's. Cong Staffers are starting to exit the "classified briefing" w #Linick IG. #Anon
3. @AdamSchiff @RepCummings are trying to bully & intimidate @StateDept workers contacting them directly & telling them to not have lawyers (right out of McCabe handbook). @SecPompeo also confirms phone call. The D's are unhinged. #DeepState #PresidentialHarassment. #Linick #Q

As @RitaKonaev notes, "Mattis had no problem disagreeing w/Obama about transgender people in the military or women in combat but won’t criticize Trump for asking foreign powers for dirt about political opponents.

This isn’t about him being above politics. This is his politics."
Excellent point here, and makes you wonder why Mattis' deference to the commander-in-chief is selectively applied in this manner 🤔

"Ukraine’s prosecutor general [Lutsenko] said in an interview that he had no evidence of wrongdoing by U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden or his son, despite a swirl of allegations by President Donald Trump’s lawyer."

"Yuriy Lutsenko, the current prosecutor general, said that neither Hunter Biden nor Burisma were now the focus of an investigation."
If #Giuliani had any decency, he should apologize for having lied his head off:
