Your decades-long close confidant/partner in crime dies from unexplained “severe head trauma” (while outside his house at 10p, and no one knows why), and you can’t be bothered to mention it on your TL. You and your entire family just move on to the next grift. 🙁🤷🏽‍♀️

Just Dana Rohrabacher angling for a pardon. Think someone sent him a message to keep his mouth shut?

"[PAUL] BEHRENDS has been the chief Capitol Hill contact for the lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya and the Akhmetshin, a former Soviet intelligence officer, whose contacts w/ Trump Jr, along w/ Kushner and Manafort..."

7/17: "Top Rohrabacher Aide Ousted After Russia Revelations
Paul Behrends, a controversial staffer assoc'd w/ the CA congressman’s pro-Russia stances, was pushed out of his role on a subcommittee after questions were raised about a recent trip to Moscow."

Wonder if French Hill is nervous?

Weird how top House GOP doesn't even mention him. His efforts were for all of them. Now Russia attacks us, and they're silent on that, too.

The Ukrainian in that photo with Rohrabacher, Behrends, Akhmetshin and Nekrasov, above.

Here's Ed Royce with him.

They all treasoned, together. Now one got his wig split.

This is how the #MOB operates.

Hey @SollenbergerRC you, should call up House GOP leadership, and Ed Royce and Dana Rohrabacher, and ask them to comment on their counterpart's recent demise.

Why haven't they publicly mourned his passing? It's weird.

Weird. 🤐

3/22/13 Manafort contributes foreign money (from Putin's puppet in Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych's Party of Regions) to Rohrabacher, Royce and Jim Risch:

Here's the LA Times on a March 19, 2013 meeting that Manafort had with Rep. Dana Rohrabacher

"Manafort and John Vincent (Vin) Weber of Mercury Public Affairs contributed $1,000 each to Rohrabacher days later."

Manafor't's second trial *really* needed to go forward; the docs would have buried him.

Manafort tells Yanukovych who the new members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee will be.

Ed Royce, known him for years, he will be helpful ✅

Dana Rohrabacher, will be open-minded ✅

Notice, Manafort mentions that the House Oversight Plan (w/details re Ukraine) is not yet public - but he has it, and it's attached

One of Paulie's little helpers; also a Rohrabacher and Behrends confidant/travel buddy. (He's pic'd in group photo, above, with the Russians.) Speaks Russian fluently, was at IRI. So was Kilimnik.

GOP made him a fin chair in NY. He lives in CA. Okaaay.

Our fave little RU cupcake, not a peep about Behrends on his TL.

"Behrends also arranged for the Russian-born investor Yuri Vanetik, a Rohrabacher donor who traveled with a personal bodyguard, to join the delegation in Berlin and the Hague,"

Someone really should ask Kevin McCarthy how he knew Putin pays Trump, just to watch him squirm.

Weird how loud-mouthed My Kevin Doll REFUSED to comment about this person.

Another one who mysteriously "forgot" to register as a foreign agent.

"I hope the media figures out at some point that Charles C. Johnson, Erik Prince and Paul Behrends worked together "allegedly" on a number of, er "internet" related projects, most famously the Weiner laptop sting that lost Hillary the election."

https://twitter.com/RYP__/status/1026557811092742144

"Sadly Paul will be famous for booking Russian agent, Natalia Veselnitskaya in DC and pushing Putin's agenda right into the Trump administration. Then Prince via another confidant George Nader flew to the Seychelles to meet Dmitriev. The rest is history."
