@DerWouter While Parnas/Fruman/Correia were in it for the money, I'm beginning to suspect part of the deal w/whoeve was taking down Joe Biden.

Since '12, McConnell only reported a single $500k investment in a hedge fund, his b-i-l's Electron Global Fund.... ...Very odd. Just searched the Senate disclosure database for "Mitch McConnell" & here are the only reports on file. No '16, no, 17, no '18.
