I swore I saw something earlier today on a series of tweets from an individual that said they'd made the connection between money and the Con and ru$$ia. A group of citizens that have been working at unscrewing the financial tenacles. Also, that it would be posted on Kos soon as well.
I can't find the thread.....anyone help me find it?
or was I dreaming?
THANK YOU tblue37 for the link to the thread I was looking for!

https://aheadofthe.news/is-trump-advisor-steve-schwarzman-ceo-of-blackstone-group-the-missing-link-in-the-trumprosneft-scandal/
Accompanied by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Donald Trump attended the extravagant 70th birthday party of long-time friend Steve Schwarzman in Palm Beach, Florida on Saturday night. According to reports, Schwarzman, who is the CEO of global private equity firm The Blackstone Group, is committed to serving as a key advisor to Trump with the intention of meeting frequently on issues of strategy and policy. Schwarzman made headlines recently for having traveled with Trump on Air Force One, and after his family housekeeper was pushed in front of a subway car and killed in Times Square back in November.
In recent days, a great deal of media attention has been paid to Trumps National Security Advisor General Michael Flynn for his possibly illegal discussions with the Kremlin prior to Inauguration Day in which he may have projected the Trump administrations intention to lift sanctions on Russia once Trump assumed office. However, the real story here may in fact be Schwarzman.
After weeks of sifting through financial disclosures and filing records, a group of concerned citizens investigating Trumps ties to Russia has uncovered evidence to suggest that the two companies involved in the Rosneft deal have ties to the Koch Brothers and Donald Trump himself. Indeed, Schwarzmans Blackstone Group may now hold a stake in Rosneft, Russias government-owned oil company that famously sold 19.5% of its stock to two investors this past December: the first was Glencore, to which evidence suggests the Koch Brothers are connected, and the second, a mysterious Qatar-based nest doll of shell corporations, which evidence suggests is ultimately owned by Schwarzman.
Schwarzmans possible connection to Rosneft puts Mr. Trump dangerously close to allegations brought forth in the controversial Russian dossier that suggested he was offered a 19 percent stake in the oil company in exchange for lifting American sanctions against Russia. If Donald Trump was involved with the Rosneft deal it would constitute a high crime of treason worthy of impeachment and have deeper ramifications about Trumps knowledge with regards to cyber interference in the presidential election.

(11,996 posts)9. Hmm...I think I saw that. So Glencore is the tie-in to trump (Qatar is a national soveriegn fund).
Well - if he can show it, that would be something.
