Russian billionaire tangled in Mueller probe throws lavish bash in Davos
DAVOS — No one throws a party quite like an oligarch.
Oleg Deripaska, whose dealings with key figures in the ongoing probe of Russian interference in the 2016 election are under scrutiny, hosted an extravagant party on Friday night at the annual World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, featuring boats of caviar, magnum bottles of Dom Perignon and a performance by Grammy winner Enrique Iglesias.
Hours after President Donald Trump finished up his two-day powwow with the global elite and took off for Washington, many conference participants headed over to a Swiss chalet booked by the billionaire aluminum tycoon, who is considered by many to be a member of Russian president Vladimir Putin’s inner circle. Hedge-funders, oil barons and corporate leaders gathered just a short walk from the main stage where Trump delivered a speech about his “America First” policy earlier in the day.
Deripaska, 49, is one of the richest men in the world. His relationship with Trump’s former campaign manager Paul Manafort has been a point of interest in special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian agents during the 2016 presidential election.

Couple days ago, but interesting in case you missed it.
= new reply since forum marked as read
the O.P. article, and want to voice my deep displeasure with ABC for NORMALIZING this fucking mobster’s goddamn party.
Yeah, forgive me, I am cranky and pissed, but check out these last paragraph’s ffs...
“In the back of the chalet, grey-haired men in suits lounged on black leather couches separated from the dance floor by a velvet rope. Beautiful young women in pencil skirts and button-down shirts lined the dance floor.
The party turned into a nightclub scene as more contemporary acts took the stage.
Three security guards flanked Deripaska, monitoring the receiving line aimed at him. The music was blaring but Deripaska spoke softly while guests leaned in for a word. There didn’t appear to be much “collusion” here, at least. Trump was already jetting home, and if any members of his entourage did attend, they managed to escape notice.”
Oh, HAW HAW HAW, “There didn’t appear to be much ‘collusion’ here...”
HIlarious, so funny!
Remember the young boy during a protest in Moscow last year, mr? He was on his bicycle, and he had written a little sign and attached it to the handlebars:
“Dear Oligarch,
Sell a villa, build a road”
—— that child literally put his life on the line doing that, and now ABC News writes, “HAW HAW HAW, NO COLLUSION HERE!!!” in their starfucking, cutesy-poo goddamn article. Jfc.
Well now, I shall thank you again for the link you recommended and offer any necessary apologies to you for my unprovoked rant, please forgive, I have gone mad and will now exit the innerwebz for the evening!!!!
