#Protip:

We can always debate the significance of the data or various connections we find in our research. Many don't lead anywhere or really mean anything.

However, when someone calls a provable connection or link a "deranged claim", we ask why. Nobody said you had to like it.

Receipts, since ppl have asked:

City Manager Lawrence Kendzior said "the purpose of the master development agreement is to define the terms and conditions of the transfer of 11 Crown St. from the city to The Michaels Organization for future development."

3/ "Kendzior was reviewing the agreement with Michael Development for tearing down and rebuilding 11 Crown St., formerly home to the Record-Journal, on his final day in office."

4/ "In July 2015, the city received a $1.7 million Department of Economic and Community Development grant to demolish the building. The city hired Manafort Bros. of New Britain for the project."

5/ I could go on, but the connections are there, including the many mob connections in the area.

Maybe the fact that Ben Carson's HUD is involved with this development is what has them worried? Friendly reminder about that part...

6/ Just sayin' :)

7/ Plenty more here.

"The SOC Group is an amalgam of four companies: city-based construction firm Manafort Brothers Inc.; the Carabetta Organization, a property management and construction firm ..." etc.

8/ In 2011, Carabetta got raided by the FBI.

"It's a very large taxpayer," City Manager Lawrence Kendzior said. "We will be watching further developments on this issue."

9/ 2016:

"Carabetta Companies-owned SRC Construction pleaded guilty Friday to one count of filing a false tax return following a six-year investigation in which company offices were raided and scores of documents were seized."

SRC paid a $250,000 fine.

10/ I'm sure the armies of trolls and bots on Twitter will (as they've done for over a year now) start calling me all sorts of names. They'll say I made all kinds of accusations.

So it goes.

All I know is this connection isn't a "deranged claim". So, why's Sarah lying?

11/ Maybe this has something to do with it.

Sarah studied dictators, but she's had some really awful takes on them over the years. Perhaps we should explore those soon?

12/ Alright. For the record then, we can state that Sarah Kendzior knows how mobbed up Paul Manafort is.

Good. That'll make the next part of the story much clearer.
