Sovereign Society fed clients to Panama Papers law firm
#GoodJournalism by @mcclatchyDC's @KevinGHall from June 2016.
I'm gonna add some background info on Robert Bauman of the Sovereign Society, because it's important. mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-wo…
Bauman is an advocate for offshoring money to avoid taxes.
SO WE ARE CLEAR:
Tax avoidance is why our infrastructure is crumbling. Tax avoidance is a form of greed. Tax avoidance is unpatriotic. Tax avoidance is what's gonna get alllllllll the bad guys. #FATCAgonnagetcha
Bauman's wife Carol Dawson (their marriage was annulled in 1983), and he were deeply involved with Young Americans for Freedom, aka YAF, and the American Conservatives Union, aka ACU.

The @NewYorker has lost all credibility with me.
Why?
Here's them trust washing RUSSIAN MOBSTER Felix Sater.
Felix Sater's dad WORKED DIRECTLY FOR SEMION MOGILEVICH.
Felix Sater WORKED WITH TRUMP TO LAUNDER MONEY.
Felix Sater MAGICALLY had Osama Bin Laden's contact info.
Here's the @NewYorker trust washing Steve "I'm a Leninist" Bannon. I'm not linking to any of these stories because they all have their own fucked up spin.
@LincolnsBible, as usual, called this correctly.

Let's just bring us up to date on @StormyDaniels and the #TrumpClownShow

1/ Trump doesn't sue.......because he's afraid IMO of discovery

President Trump has agreed to give up his right to pursue millions of dollars in damages against Stormy Daniels in a move to kill litigation over an illegal payoff to the adult-film star.
2/ Huge reversal for #TrumpClown

His legal team sought earlier to pull Daniels into an arbitration that could have forced her to pay the president more than $20 million

Last thing I'm going to say on this:
Consider that by pointing this out, we are holding MSM press to their own standards. Which is so critical in helping to shore up our free press, which is under a direct assault by a hostile foreign state & the White House.
Here's why... /1
2/ There are time/date stamps on what we put out. This is easily discovered via basic Twitter searches. To everyone. And we have considerable followings now. So, folks know - or can easily discover - where & when certain stories first broke. It looks REALLY BAD at this point...
3/ To NOT give credit - or at least acknowledge that there was prior information "out there" in the public domain. Good Lord.
No one who has been committing the time/energy to research, analyze, & then publicly share findings is doing it 4 fame (well, ok. maybe @ScottMStedman).

Since @counterchekist announced FEATHERS21 cleared for takeoff, I decided to dig back through some old FEATHERS bulletins to see what I missed.
We all know...there's an Alpha. Sometimes, there's an Omega too. Let's go deeper into Feathers14 aka IVANKA COUNTERINTEL INVESTIGATION
First of all, hey @CNN: 🎶what a difference 367 days make, and the difference is....stark!🎶

why no linky from your 3/2/18 article to your 2/28/17 article, @CNN?
I mentioned an Omega, yes?
"The elder Tiah was implicated in a crackdown on corporate crime in Malaysia. In 2002, Tony Tiah was convicted of giving false information to the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange in a case related to stock brokerage Omega Holdings."

ARE YOU READY FOR MY ROY COHN THEORY OF AGENT RECRUITMENT, TWITTER?
Roy Cohn fucked younger men, using himself as kompromat bait. Once he fucked 'em (with video proof), he owned 'em. Then, he used em.
I *speculate* that Roger Stone was one of Roy Cohn's first, and definitely his most successful recruits.
Roger Stone would then go on to be involved with the College Republicans.

FYI KBR used to be a subsidiary of Halliburton.
And it does a ton of work for the US military.
AND they cheated the US out of a ton of money by employing their employees via shell co's in tax havens.
Receipts!
Nice work if you can get it- profiting off military contracts while not contributing to Medicare or Social Security. Paul Ryan's wet dream!
