A Mystery $325,000 To A Pro-Trump Super PAC Confounds Experts
https://talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/a-mystery-325000-to-a-pro-trump-super-pac-confounds-experts

The person most closely tied to the $325,000 is a man named Lev Parnas, a Miami businessman and Mar-a-Lago attendee.

The New York Times reported in May that Parnas and an associate — Igor Fruman — were deputized by Giuliani to lobby Ukrainian officials for dirt on Joe Biden. America’s mayor himself has referred to the pair as his “clients” in relation to their Ukraine efforts.

At the same time as Parnas was working with Giuliani, he was also making use of his recently founded company — Global Energy Producers.

Separate reporting indicates that, months after a donation to America First Action from Global Energy Partners showed up on Federal Election Commission records, Parnas used the company in a bid to secure a stake in Ukraine’s lucrative gas export market.

So how did this $325,000 contribution from Parnas’s Ukraine-focused energy firm end up as the center of a campaign finance mystery?

But yes, the one I posted is in Chicago, so maybe it’s not the same outfit, but that would be weird, to have the same name

this shit show is going to go on until Trump signs off on the pending Budget deal worked out two weeks ago. And that deal is only short term till November 21 st when a full Budget is to be agreed upon.

Pelosi/Hoyer as well as Schumer do not want another Shut Down under any circumstances. Fecklessness has created a whole new Political Landscape. Shades of January 2001.

If these leaders are reluctant to move on the White House,then they need to put their money where their mouths are and hit the media with a hell of a Ad blitz out lining the Crimes of this Administration. We have seen a preview of this shit show with Bush/Cheney were by we gave them Amnesty after Obama was sworn in.

The Public is just not that ignorant as a whole,yes there will be a forty per cent group who are just tuned out.

A world expert on the rise of RW authoritarianism gave wise advice in the simplest of terms: "Watch for mean people." We have lots of them in power right now and too many cheering them on.

(We also have too many on the left who respond to fear by whining and attacking their own and never wonder if they're the weakness the right needs to prevail.)
