Igor Fruman, an associate of Rudy Giuliani, pleaded guilty Friday in New York federal court to a charge stemming from a case alleging he funneled foreign money to US campaign coffers.

Fruman, 56, pleaded guilty to solicitation of a contribution by a foreign national. He faces up to five years in prison.

His plea didn't include an agreement to cooperate with the government.

Fruman had faced multiple charges. He and another Giuliani associate, Lev Parnas, were originally indicted in October 2019. They were charged with conspiracy to violate the ban on foreign donations to federal and state elections, making false statements and falsifying records to the Federal Election Commission. They pleaded not guilty.

5. I guess this is just more "fake news."

Every time Trump said "fake news" to cover any reported connections between the Trump campaign,
Russia, Vlad Putin, Trump himself, and agents both foreign and domestic who had some kind of link
to Russia and Trump he was fucking lying.

Both Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas were Ukrainian crooks who worked for the interests of Vlad Putin.



But in the end what about Hillary's emails?
