Read this from @Leshchenkos on how Kolomoisky has been helping fuel anti-Biden conspiracies in Ukraine in order to curry favor with Trump: kyivpost.com/article/opinio… 
@Leshchenkos From October: Kolomoisky 'has been claiming to have damaging information on the Bidens, according to people familiar with the situation.' politico.com/news/2019/10/0…
@Leshchenkos Context: Kolomoisky's trying to get out of allegations that, among other things, he used the city of Cleveland as a giant money-laundering operation. thinkprogress.org/how-did-this-u…
@Leshchenkos '“Fuck your Shulman!” Kolomoisky told TPM when asked to respond to the allegation.' talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/kolo…
@Leshchenkos Weird reality: Kolomoisky is now the poster-child for both post-Soviet oligarchs laundering millions through American real estate *and* foreign interference via offering dirt on Trump's political opponents.
Giuliani shares some thoughts about whether the Obama administration was aware of Kolomoisky’s alleged money laundering (some of which Giuliani claims went to Hunter Biden):
How many other oligarchs—former or otherwise—are currently trying to lob "dirt" on Biden at the White House, hoping it will stick? How many investigations are going to stall out because of it?

Can't tell what's more surprising: how swiftly the guardrails against (offers of) foreign interference in U.S. elections have fallen, or how inevitable this all was the second Trump won the election in 2016.
