according to NYT in Dec 2018, Ye met Hunter in Miami in May 2017. This was exactly the same month that Bobulinski and Gilliar were negotiating Sinohawk on behalf of Bidens. Is May 2017 date for Miami right? What a gong show.
2/ for chronology, looks to me like Miami meeting (the diamond meeting) must be prior to May 17 Hunter text in which he mentions Zhang. Date would be useful to pin down.
3/ on Fri (May 19), Hunter proposes that they all meet in Romania on Tuesday [May 23] as Zhang will be there. Bobulinski's letter of Aug 1 to CEFC refers to Romania and Moscow meetings. Looks like Romania meet was May 23.
4/ Bobulinski's Aug 1, 2017 letter says that their JV agreement was signed on May 24. This must have been done in Romania when they met there with CEFC director Zang.

5/ if Hunter's Miami meeting with CEFC had been in early May, Hunter's concept of the deal doesn't seem to correspond to the deal as written up. He seems (no surprise) to have been living in fantasy world.

Steele 302 in new dump. page 617 Image
all 26 pages were redacted except for the date of the meeting. FBI did negligible redaction on Manafort, Gates interviews. FBI is defying declassification order to the end.
@DNI_Ratcliffe why do you permit this defiance by permanent bureaucracy? Shame on you.

I agree with frustration over Twitter bias but there may be better way of dealing with issue than trying to bargain with Twitter using s230 as potential cudgel, as Twitter will just wait this out. Note that s230 is in subchapter on Common Carriers. Let's look at other sections
2/ the next subchapter of 47 USC contains an interesting looking section: 254. Universal service. I wonder if it contains anything relevant 😀

law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/47…
3/ section 254(b) says that regulators shall have policies for "preservation and advancement of universal service" including a requiement that providers of telecommunications services shall make "equitable and nondiscriminatory contribution"

on May 27, 2017, Mueller investigation was started. Exactly one week later, the Biden family entered into a joint venture with Chinese firm CEFC. Agreement was signed on May 24 per Bobulinski letter of Aug 1/17. Do you notice something else interesting?int.nyt.com/data/documentt…
2/ between signing date of May 24, 2017 and letter date of Aug 1, 2017, Bobulinki, then representing Biden interests, met with CEFC director Zang Jianjun in Moscow and Romania. So while Dems fomenting Russiagate xenophobia, Biden rep has meeting in Moscow.
3/ chronology question: when did Bobulinski meet CEFC director Zang in Moscow? Two candidate dates:
a) on June 14, CEFC met with Rosneft in Moscow southseaconversations.wordpress.com/2018/03/29/cai…
b) on July 3, Xi Jinping had state visit to Moscow xinhuanet.com//english/2017-…

picture of Hunter with O at 5:19 pm on Apr 4, 2016. Confirmed by Obama visitor logs. Hunter was at White House for meeting at 4:15 pm, nominally 1 on 1 with VP. (Stayed over after large event at 3:15 pm). Three days after Poroshenko visit and Shokin firing.
2/ the large event attended by Hunter at 3:15 pm on Apr 4 was annual Greek Independence Day celebration. It was attended by 504 people including, somewhat anomalously, Hunter Biden.
3/ A Papadopoulos was invited, but it wasn't George. Tucked in among all the invited Greeks was familiar face - Victoria Nuland.

remember the $5 million "loan" to Biden family from shady Chinese company that was news a couple of days ago. Bobulinksi's interview and Senate documents shed unexpected light.
2/ according to Bobulinski's email, as of Jul 27, 2017, CEFC was in discussion with Sinohawk for a $5 million loan, with the choice of JV projects and screening still under discussion. Watch what happens.
3/ on Aug 8, 2017, CEFC sent the $5 million NOT to Sinohawk but to Hudson West III, an entity controlled by Bidens directly. Hunter didn't use the $5 million for joint venture projects but instead paid it out to Owasco (Hunter's company) in "consulting" fees, not JV investment

very interesting summary of Biden's Chinese deals (h/t Shana Lin) baldingsworld.com/wp-content/upl…

Turns out that the Bidens' Bohai Harvest (BHR) was almost immediately involved in huge mining deal for Tengke Fungurume cobalt-copper mine in Congo. Breathtaking.
2/ In 1970s, I worked for then largest Canadian copper business and have known about this famous ore body all my working life. The deal for Biden's Bohai, as summarized (and I haven't crosschecked the summary against documents), is unlike any transaction that I've ever heard of.
3/ the author of this report stated that "this is cannot be considered a market-based transaction. BHR provided no value to the transaction". Sure looks that way to me as well.
