Great reporting by @CJBarker on Erik Prince lawsuit against The Intercept, which found Prince's sworn statement about his ties to WY included misstatements about his WY voting record and businesses HT @seth_hettena
In response to article Prince said he thought Jones Creek & CMNS Systems were in WY but later believed they are DE entities
This CMNS Systems incorporated in DE Aug 2020 has a MI address and Chris Coleman CEO (not clear this is same one Prince referenced) opengovus.com/sam-entity/117…
Erik Prince's company CMNS Systems address is 39395 W. 12 Mile Rd., Suite 200, Farmington Hills, MI opengovus.com/sam-entity/117…
This is the same address for The Prince Group and lawyer Don Lansky's law firm (Lansky is listed as Agent for The Prince Group) opencorporates.com/companies/us_m…
I was able to match the tel # to a few other data points and it appears that Chris Coleman who is listed as the CEO of CMNS Systems was previously the CEO of LookingGlass Cyber Solutions, a threat intelligence company based in Reston VA
As a side note, the current CEO of LookingGlass Cyber Solutions is Gilman Louie - who was previously the founder of CIA backed In-Q-Tel, and an investor in Wickr, a company in which Erik Prince was reportedly an investor
Russia is only part of the Trump story, but this history of Putin is filled with lessons, including how Westerners underestimated how political, KGB, mafia & business interests would merge under Putin as democratic rights eroded
A new name in the book surprised me because of his role in Trump's orbit - Shalva Tchigirinsky aka Chigirinsky met Trump at the Taj Mahal in 1990, reportedly had Solnetsevskaya ties, mentored Aras Agalarov, knew Steve Wynn and was involved in one of the Trump Moscow discussions
The Democratic Republic of Congo as suffered under authoritarian rule of Joseph Kabila, but a $9.5 million lobbying campaign by Mer Security and Communication Systems helped Kabila gain support of Trump admin, including Guiliani & Pompeo by @AlbertSamaha buzzfeednews.com/article/albert…
"When the history of the Trump administration is written, much will be made of the president undermining democracy at home. But as the Congo episode shows, he also did so abroad."

RNC's highest-paid vendor of the 2020 election: A mystery company formed nine months ago - Digital Consulting Group made $42 million in eight months for media and marketing services. But who's behind it? by @SollenbergerRC
The address for Digital Consulting Group LLC is 1000 N. West Street Suite 1200 Wilmington DE 19801 - the address of a Regus virtual office, used by many different businesses, so as @SollenbergerRC noted it's nearly impossible to track who is behind the company with that location
