In reply to the discussion: 1/9/17 MITCH McCONNELL WALKING INTO TRUMP TOWER SAME DAY VEKSELBERG WAS THERE TO VISIT COHEN [View all]Leghorn21
(13,524 posts)went on that day (or others)...but here is my best shot at putting times on this day:
Okay - the tape is 7:54 long...(I dont know what time of the day it covers exactly) -
At 2:04 - David Bossie appears, goes up
At 2:15 - Jack Ma appears, goes up
At 2:29 - McConnel leaves
At 2:58 - Spanky comes down with Ma
Vekselberg is much later!! He arrives at 6:48 on the tape and leaves at 7:18

...meanwhile, way before that, I think youre referring to June 15, 2016?
KIEV, Ukraine A month before Donald Trump clinched the Republican nomination, one of his closest allies in Congress House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy made a politically explosive assertion in a private conversation on Capitol Hill with his fellow GOP leaders: that Trump could be the beneficiary of payments from Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Theres two people I think Putin pays: Rohrabacher and Trump, McCarthy (R-Calif.) said, according to a recording of the June 15, 2016, exchange, which was listened to and verified by The Washington Post. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher is a Californian Republican known in Congress as a fervent defender of Putin and Russia.
House Speaker Paul D. Ryan (R-Wis.) immediately interjected, stopping the conversation from further exploring McCarthys assertion, and swore the Republicans present to secrecy.
Before the conversation, McCarthy and Ryan had emerged from separate talks at the Capitol with Ukrainian Prime Minister Vladimir Groysman, who had described a Kremlin tactic of financing populist politicians to undercut Eastern European democratic institutions.
