I take foreign intelligence influence in the US very seriously. If the right-hand-man of a US Senator (on the Intel Committee!!) manages the money for an ex-Israeli intelligence officer, yeah, there's a problem. That's just one of the parts of this piece.
That aide is currently doing the following things:

-Helping the ex-Israeli intelligence officer with his investments
-Managing the Senator's PACs and family business.

It's a conflict. I don't care who it is.
A parallel would be this:

A GOP senator's 30 year aide who manages the senator's political and personal businesses working with an ex-Russian intelligence officer who has a company that hacks journalists. There's a problem here.
What's more:

Lavie's company is under federal investigation!
I want to know the money relationship between Lavie and the PACs that Warner's aide runs. They could've engaged with me substantively. They didn't.

5 years ago this week, Michael Flynn dined with Putin. The same week, NRA officials flew to Moscow and met/partied with Russian government leaders, Russian spy Maria Butina and her handler, Torshin.

Now Russia has conducted one of the most devastating hacks on the US in history.
It has been 5+ years of acquiescence to Putin. And this is what it leads to.
At the same time, one has to understand the difference between the 2016 DNC hack/leak operation and what is occurring now with the Cozy Bear attacks. This intel gathered via the recent hacks will likely not be used in an overt political manner. (1/2)

This is outrageous. Barr told a prosecutor in Pittsburgh to accept information about the Bidens that Giuliani got from sources in Ukraine, even though a legitimate inquiry into Hunter Biden was already being done by the books in Delaware. nytimes.com/2020/12/11/us/…
The real FBI investigation determined that Hunter Biden was not guilty of any money laundering offenses. Image
The shadow prosecutor investigation STILL took in information from Giuliani via his Ukrainian sources (reminder: some of these people were Russian intelligence agents)

These attacks against Swalwell are so outrageous even for that group.

Totally fine sending private campaign data willingly and frequently to a Russian spy, not fine to cooperate with the FBI after being targeted by a Chinese spy.
Totally fine meeting with another Russian spy to get dirt on the Bidens, not fine to cut off all contact with the Chinese spy after being notified.
If anything comes out against Swalwell about him acting inappropriately with the Chinese spy after being told by the FBI, I'll be the first to condemn and report on it. I don't care that he endorsed my book and work.

But until then, these are bad faith arguments to intimidate.

Deutsche Bank is under increasing criminal scrutiny in the Wirecard case. The former COO of Wirecard fled to Russia under the protection of Russian intelligence.
I wrote about a California-based man who is tangled up in this as investigators probe his connections to Wirecard. The man, Ray Akhavan, was previously tied to the money laundering scandal at FBME Bank. He was recently re-arrested on drug and gun charges. forensicnews.net/2020/07/09/us-…
Underscoring the significance of Akhavan is one of his attorneys, William Burck, who previously represented multiple Trump team members in the Mueller probe.

I continue to be extremely worried about this company that now has an expanding US presence:
When almost all of the principals of a sophisticated hacking company that sells their spyware to governments around the world suddenly turn around and start an information *security* company, serious questions need to be asked.
I didn't notice this until now, but it looks like 3 weeks after my article exposing this all, FloLive's (the IT security/connectivity company) Cyprus branch changed directors to hide the fact that its director works for Circles (the hackers)

Bloomberg quickly touches on Radvinsky’s sketchy past but doesn’t addresses massive problems with OnlyFans. Dozens of people have told me that they had money stolen, entire account balances siphoned without their knowledge or detailed explanation. google.com/amp/s/www.bloo…
OnlyFans tells these people, in a pre-written, form letter that there were vague associations with fraud so the account had to be deleted. Now, the company is worth $2 billion. It’s quite disturbing.
