Fruman & Manafort have known each other for years. Fruman invited Manafort to the opening party for Buddha-Bar in Kyiv many years ago. Buddha-Bar opened in the summer of 2008. Bondy said the pair also spent time together in London and New York. thedailybeast.com/paul-manafort-…

Todd Blanche is expected to represent Fruman, who is scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday in New York.

Manafort seems to have picked up the narrative that UKR hacked the DNC, not RU from his associate Konstantin Kilimnik, a former Russian intelligence officer

In 2019, Parnas and Fruman started pushing the same disinformation.

SCOOP by @woodruffbets: Paul Manafort and Igor Fruman, the indicted associate of Trump and Giuliani, go way, way back.

Their relationship long predated Giuliani’s efforts to discredit the Black Ledger evidence that played a key role in Manafort's downfall.thedailybeast.com/paul-manafort-…
@woodruffbets Giuliani/Trump ally Igor Fruman and ex-Trump campaign chief Paul Manafort have been friendly for years.

Fruman invited Manafort to the opening party for Buddha-Bar in Kyiv many years ago. They've also spent time together in London and NY. But of course!

Many commentators are dismissing the ALP 2030 goal of EVs being 50% of new cars sold.. you need to understand the wave of R&D, product dev and manufacturing started years ago and the market is about to be flooded with EVs. #auspol
This isn’t a theoretical scenario. 50% is likely to be seen as a modest target in decades time.
Up until last year EVs were mostly a luxury niche or weird ahead of their time concepts (think: Tesla, BMW i8, Mitsubishi I-MIEV) - but factories around the world of mass market car companies have been busy engineering and manufacturing the next generation of mainstream cars.

1. WTF? @xychelsea was a source years ago, how in the hell would she know or be privy to anything that Assange or @wikileaks were doing while she was in jail or out getting her life back on track? This is a fucking terror campaign against an American hero.
2. How the fuck does #Manafort get to almost walk away from his crimes while @xychelsea is still being terrorized for blowing the whistle on an illegal war? How the hell does Roger Stone get bail, while Chelsea is still being terrorized after she has done her time?
3. How the fuck is Don Jr. still sitting around tweeting after he met with fucking foreign spies, but @xychelsea is the one in the cross-hairs? How the fuck is Kushner not in a underground isolation tank for acting as a foreign asset for the Saudi regime...
