Fed govt’s chief information security officer is helping outside effort to hunt for alleged voter fraud

A spokeswoman for WH OMB where Sandoval works said he was on leave, but didn't respond when asked whether he was continuing to receive his govt salary

2018 letter from 11 Dems noted there were "serious character concerns that should disqualify Mr. Sandoval for this position" (as VA CIO)

After leaving VA Sandoval did brief stint at MCI & this Nov re-appeared as Federal Chief Information Security Officer

Around 2010 before Trump defaulted on Chicago tower payments, Fortress expected over $300 million - $130 million in principal and roughly $185 million in interest and fees

Fortress & partners (including Mnuchin's Dune) settled for $48 million

nytimes.com/2020/10/27/bus…
Last year I had caught this from a description of the Fortress loan in a 2008 WSJ article which noted the loan of $130 million with the exit fee and interest could end up costing up to $360 million

NYT notes in 2014 Deutsche loaned Trump more $ due 2024 for total of $69mil and by May 2016 he repaid $24mil

Article doesn't mention that day after the election, there was a partial release of $53.7mil

Great overview of Erik Prince's history, work for repressive regimes, new questions on a mercenary fiasco in Libya, efforts to revive Blackwater and new info on Prince's work w/Roger Stone to suppress black voter turnout in 2016 election, by @seth_hettena

rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
Erik Prince claim he acted as a private citizen & not on behalf of Trump admin is ludicrous

In 2nd Seychelles mtg w/Dmitriev he said Libya was off the table - US didn't need help from Russia on Libya

He wants us to believe he told Russia what to do without okay from Trump team?
Ex-Army paratrooper and former private military contractor Sean McFate on Erik Prince:

“He’s an attention-seeking Kardashian who’s largely despised...On top of that, he’s a failure as a mercenary … He doesn’t have any successful operations.”

It surprised me to see China's CEFC in the new Hunter Biden conspiracy

Since 2017 I've tweeted 50+ times on huge deals CEFC pursued with Russia - w/Deripaska's EN+ and a Rosneft deal that fell thru when CEFC corruption was exposed

CEFC's activity has been odd for years
In 2017 CEFC and Rosneft announced an agreement for CEFC to invest over $8 billion in Rosneft - which would have been the largest Chinese investment in Russia in a decade

The deal fell through when CEFC was investigated for corruption

Oleg Deripaska's EN+ listed on London Stock Exchange and raised $500 million from CEFC through subsidiary AnAn Group

EN+ was Russia's largest global IPO after they were sanctioned for Crimea, and an important test of raising $ through public offerings

miamiherald.com/news/state/flo…
Webzilla appears indirectly in FinCEN Files in a Barclays Bank filing about Ukrainian Maxim Polyakov who grew wealthy off adult websites owned by Alcuda Ltd - a regulatory filing cited suspicious wire transfers & possible fraud on the adult-dating sites
miamiherald.com/news/state/flo…
Last year WSJ reported that Max Polyakov was one of two people the Trump administration approached about possibly acquiring Ukrainian aerospace manufacturer Motor Sich to prevent China from buying the firm, the other person approached was Erik Prince
