3. Read this story Mother Jones just posted "Ahmed al Rumaihi"

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2018/05/qatari-investor-accused-in-bribery-plot-appears-with-michael-cohen-in-picture-posted-by-stormy-daniels-lawyer/

Members of the Trump transition team appear to have met on December 12, 2016 with a group from Qatar that included Ahmed al-Rumaihi, the former Qatari diplomat and current head of a division of Qatar’s massive sovereign wealth fund who is accused in a recent lawsuit of scheming to bribe Trump administration officials.

Michael Avenatti, a lawyer for adult film actress Stormy Daniel, on Sunday shared an ambiguous tweet showing a group of unidentified men in a Trump Tower elevator with Michael Cohen, Trump’s personal attorney.

The photos include a person who appears to be al-Rumaihi, who in late 2016 and 2017 was part of an aggressive Qatari effort to forge ties with members of the Trump administration. It has not previously been reported that Qataris, including al-Rumaihi, met with Cohen in December 2016. Avenatti later followed up with another tweet asking why Cohen was meeting with Al-Rumaihi and Michael Flynn, Trump’s former national security advisor.

25. Remember that 19% Rosneft stock sale? Qatar just bought 18.xx of Rosneft

The world is being divided

Russia, China, Korea, Iran, Qatar, Shia, Syria, countries etc

vs

Saudi Arabia westernsnations.

or so it seems

How is Africa being carved up?

Where does India stand?

Hens return to roosts. Who has an ax to grind with whom?

If ever geopolitical, diplomatic experts were needed, now is that time. Sadly, we are looking understaffed.

27. Thank you. NT

5. Patron Saint of what?

I may be having a brain fart but I cannot read the beginning of the last word.

[Sophiegirl]

10. I believe it is

Underestimated.

[Kingofalldems]

13. Thanks.

*sweep*

[Sophiegirl]

17. Fingers crossed!! n/t

[nolabear]

28. LOL! I'll second that!

[Drahthaardogs]

33. I can't read it either

Glad it's not just me

[KewlKat]

4. I must be missing something. I'm not seeing Cohen at 7:42 and 30 and nothing at the 9:08 one either

could those be for another video?

[dewsgirl]

6. The guy at 7:42 is acting really shady, has a rag and wipes phone a couple times, then Cohen gets in

Elevator with a group of what looks to be mobsters (imo)

[NightWatcher]

9. Watch the first one for 30 seconds. And watch Cohen walk into the elevator with a group.

One of the people in the group is the Qatari guy who bragged about bribing trump.

Cohen said the meeting did not happen. At the end you see the Qatari guy trying to sneak out of the building.

Read the Mother Jones story I posted above for more details if you'd like.

[Kingofalldems]

15. This is some badass stuff here.

[Kingofalldems]

11. He's at the 7:42 entering the elevator.

At the 9:08 mark the guy who Cohen greeted(with the driver's cap) exits the elevator.

[janx]

26. Ahmed Al-Rumaihi is there,

but he is not wearing a hat.

[manor321]

16. He's there

Cohen first walks right to left through camera. Then seconds later left to right through camera with, apparently, Ahmed Al-Rumaihi right behind him.

21. You Looking at 7 Hours and 42 Minutes? Or 7 Minutes and 42 Seconds?

[KewlKat]

24. Duh....I guess I was looking at minutes and seconds, instead of hour, minutes, seconds. THANK YOU!

[janx]

23. Part of the problem is that it looks like a carnival funhouse.

So much gold, pink, and mirrors. Sometimes I can't tell if I'm looking at people or reflections of people.

I'd have a panic attack in that place.

[dhol82]

7. If I only knew who all these people were it would make more sense.

Whatever.. got my popcorn out and waiting for the feature.

14. Thanks.

18. Doesn't the US have a base at Qatar?

And in some sort of dispute, Trump took the side of Saudi Arabia against Qatar? What was that about? Was Trump attempting to extort the Qataris?

[Lonestarblue]

22. Kushner went to the Qataris for a loan.

Jared tried to get a loan for his underwater investment in 666 5th Avenue, and they turned him down. Shortly thereafter, the embargo against Qatar started.

29. They should call it Satan's Tower. Maybe the evangelicals would

Be jolted out of their hypocrisy. I doubt it.

19. K&R...

20. Ever Since I Read Steele Dossier I've Always hoped this is Where the Investigation Would Focus

rather than on sex scandal

I just didn't know that a stripper's attorney would help expose it

[Major Nikon]

30. Grifters gonna grift

[Leighbythesea]

31. That was fascinating

K & R

[BobTheSubgenius]

32. Whether it's just appearances, or actually is WYSIWYG, Avenatti really seems to be...

...at least on the edges of virtually every group that matters in these present circumstances, doesn't he?

[KelleyKramer]

34. I'm liking this Avenatti guy more and more every day

This guy is good

And I think he has a lot more to reveal
