Mitch McConnell, corruption, aluminum wars with a body count?

GOP is a fascist threat to our democracy

In 2019, Rusal announced its commitment to invest $200 million in the plant, which stirred up criticism as the decision came shortly after the U.S. Treasury Department lifted sanctions on Rusal and its parent company. A spokesman for Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, then majority leader, told the Washington Post that the lawmaker didn’t know at the time that Braidy had hopes of a deal with Rusal when he backed the effort to lift sanctions on the Russian company.

Would he actually be dumb enough to keep evidence in his house?

That would be pretty damn dumb.

is exciting to think about.

I still dont believe any of them will receive justice, like MTG and Madison Cawthorn and a long list of other SITTING GOP politicians who assisted with the attack.

7. Deripaska loaned $10 million to Paul Manafort. /Mueller investigation

REUTERS 6/2018




Paul Manafort, Trump's campaign manager in 2016, now a convicted felon, passed electoral poll data to Deripaska. He also was in debt to Deripaska.

SNIP
July 2017 application, an FBI agent said he had reviewed tax returns for a company controlled by Manafort and his wife that showed a $10 million loan from a Russian lender identified as Oleg Deripaska.

The application to search Manafort's Virginia apartment was granted, providing key evidence for Special Counsel Robert Mueller's indictments of Manafort as part of his investigation into Russia's alleged meddling in the 2016 presidential campaign.


Mueller has been investigating the financial links between Manafort and Deripaska, a metals magnate who is known to be close to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Deripaska was among the Russian oligarchs sanctioned by the United States in April.

Mueller also has indicted Konstantin Kilimnik, a political operative who sometimes served as an intermediary between Manafort and Deripaska. In court filings Mueller's prosecutors have said Kilimnik has ties to Russian spy agencies, which Kilimnik denies.

The affidavit unsealed on Wednesday also disclosed that Deripaska had financially backed Manafort's consulting work in Ukraine when it started in 2005-2006, citing information from a source whose name was redacted, a sign that a former Manafort associate may have cooperated with the investigation.
MORE..

From the Ukraine electioneering for Putin, to the 2016 US electioneering for Putin.. The same team worked in tandem.
Manafort, DeVine, Kilimnik, Deripaska & more.


Pelosi said it.
"All roads lead to Putin"

THIS:
Paul Manafort, Trump's campaign manager in 2016, now a convicted felon, passed electoral poll data to Deripaska. He also was in debt to Deripaska.

Acquiring poll/voter data was the most valued commodity in 2016.

2016 Clinton Campaign Data Theft Was No Accident.

It's not a difficult line to draw between the Putin players & the multi prong approach to destroy the US govt & society.
