That Russia-Trump Thing..Shugerblog, Masterful Timeline w/links

Russia’s sale of Rosneft Gas is the key event in the Steele Dossier’s quid pro quo allegation. On June 2016, Russians allegedly offer Trump associates a massive payout derived from the commissions on Russia’s sale of 19.5% of state energy giant Rosneft ($11 billion), in return for lifting sanctions.

Weeks after the election, Flynn and Kushner are in contact with Russian officials. Then Russia sells a 19.5% stake in Rosneft in a concealed deal, eventually revealed to be with Qatar. Immediately after the deal, a Qatari diplomat allegedly met with Cohen and Flynn at Trump Tower.


Jed Shugerman - at shugerblog.com - was on with Rachel tonight..and just blew me away with his investigative reporting on this Russia/trump thingy..he also writes for Slate...Professor at Fordham and a true American Patriot..if you have any questions about this subject, I implore you to read his blog..

than doesn't that mean that Mueller already knew about all of this? He doesn't need Cohen or Jared to testify if Flynn already did, except to maybe catch them lying and add perjury to the other charges.

Maddow to take the Newsy Prize once again.

We are now seeing evidence of Graft and Bribery in unimaginable amounts dollar wise. As many have thought for some time. Trump once figured out he was not capable of or knowing zero about Governing our country,he decided,well,I'am going to take as much as I can and F those who try to stop me.

next year.

Senator Feinstein has said,once Donald gets enough money to stay afloat,he is gone.

Key will be Trump's latest FEC filing,which will be leaked soon.

his stuff. He showed up with facts,not made up crap,hard facts,times dates and numbers. Now that is real reporting. A few people associated with Media could learn several lessons from tonight's interview.
