Prosecutors on the case want to question members of the Skadden team who came to Ukraine to work on the report, including former Obama Administration officials Gregory Craig and Clifford Sloan, as well as the London-based associate Alex Van der Zwaan, the Russian-speaking son-in-law of Russian oligarch German Khan, who prosecutors say acted as an intermediary for the team on much of the trip.

Also, German Khan was mentioned in the Steele dossier... weird.

Now THAT is interesting. His father-in-law, German Khan, was the co-founder of Alfa Bank. Khan and Alfa were named so frequently in the Steele dossier that Khan sued Steele for libel. Not sure what became of that lawsuit.

Alfa Bank? Where have I heard that name before? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa-Bank

2016 – On 31 October and 2 November, Franklin Foer reported in Slate that there had been unusual repeated activity from 4 May to 23 September 2016 between two computer servers registered to Alfa Bank in Moscow and a server owned by the Trump Organization.[21][22][23][24][25] The activity also included, to a much lesser extent, communications to a server at Spectrum Health, a medical facility chain led by Dick DeVos, the husband of Betsy DeVos.[21][24] From August through October 2016, the FBI investigated the computer server activity between the Trump Organization and Alfa Bank.[26]

2017 – In January, the Donald Trump–Russia dossier, prepared by former MI6 agent Christopher Steele[27] and denoting various ties between Trump and Russia, was published in full in BuzzFeed News; the dossier mentions Alfa Bank's parent company Alfa Group (spelled "Alpha Group" in the dossier).[28] On 10 March, CNN reported that the FBI was continuing to investigate the unusual computer activity between Alfa Bank and the Trump Organization which had occurred in the summer of 2016, and which had been reported in the media just before the U.S. presidential election.[24][29] Also in March, Alfa Bank was the target of Ukrainian protests.[30] In May, the owners of Alfa Bank filed a defamation lawsuit against BuzzFeed for publishing the unverified Donald Trump–Russia dossier, which alleges financial ties and collusion between Putin, Trump, and Alfa Bank's owners.[31][32] In June, President Trump nominated Brian Benczkowski, the bank's former attorney, to be United States Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division.[33]

It's pathetic

 

[Big Nasty Edison]

It's pathetic

He's completely incapable of just letting things be. Imagine if Obama spent time tweeting about everything someone said about him.

This post from Trump is even worst than usual. It's like he can't try hard enough to scream "I dindunuffin".

And for a thread that's a big giant nothingburger, the resident Trump bots can't stay away from it. I see them viewing it right now.

Let's look at the facts

The Trump transition team dismissed the findings in a short statement issued Friday evening. “These are the same people that said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. The election ended a long time ago in one of the biggest Electoral College victories in history. It’s now time to move on and ‘Make America Great Again,’ ” the statement read.
Trump has consistently dismissed the intelligence community’s findings about Russian hacking.“I don’t believe they interfered” in the election, he told Time magazine this week. The hacking, he said, “could be Russia. And it could be China. And it could be some guy in his home in New Jersey.”

Also Obama was well aware of Russia interference and had Intelligence Officials brief Congressional leaders and wanted to release a joint statement about it, but McConnell wouldn't sign and said he'd call it out as Obama trying to politicize the Intel community in order to help Hillary if he said anything on it.

Obama fucked up a lot in the last year, the Scalia seat and on this because he thought Hillary would win. And up until that Comey letter 8 days out, she likely still would have.

Good article on the Van Der Zwann guilty plea, and the surrounding information:

Holy crap. But is that even all of them? The lady doth jump the shark too much, methinks.

 

[Trotsky]

Smh, he is such a fucking moron. Do we need to revisit the fact that Russia and Israel were, iirc, the only two countries in the world that disliked Obama more than Bush?

 

[Strychnine]

Jared Kushner and others like him with interim/can't be awarded permanent security clearances, have a deadline of Friday to either get them or they can't be around SCI/Top Secret info. Period.

Gonna be hard for Mr. Kushner to broker mid-east peace without being able to touch classified info...
