Sam Patten, a former associate of Paul Manafort & #Russian🇷🇺GRU spy, Konstantin Kilmnik, was charged w/failing to register as a foreign agent (#FARA) for lobbying on behalf of a Ukrainian political party.😎 1/

#TrumpRussia

h/t @SpicyFiles
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Team🇺🇸Mueller referred the case to the US Attorney in DC. Patten's charge is a FELONY w/max prison sentence of 5 years.

His charges are spelled out in a "criminal information" filing, which often precedes a GUILTY plea.🤗 2/

#MuellerTime
#TrumpRussia

🔥Patten & #GRU agent Konstantin Kilimnik are the **only 2 execs** listed for a DC consulting firm (Begemot Ventures).

And Patten "just happened" to help Cambridge Analytica MICROTARGET voters during the 2014 midterm election cycle.🙄3/

#TrumpRussia

Yet another domino falls, as Mueller & the Justice🇺🇸League get another Team🇷🇺Traitor scalp. Patten VERY likely will plead GUILTY, and MAY be cooperating, which would send a chill up the spines (if they have any) of others who plotted to sell our country for CASH.😎

/end
PS: @ryanjreilly confirms that Patten has an 11am "plea hearing." Open-source link to the full 4-page criminal information document provided.👇🏼

Note that Sam Patten wasn't just casual acquaintances w/"former" #GRU agent, Konstantin Kilimnik. Patten was **his BOSS** in Moscow 17 yrs ago, and they recently formed a DC consulting firm together.🙄

Summary on @GOP operative Sam Patten:

👉🏼Partners w/"former" #GRU Kilimnik at DC firm
👉🏼Was Kilimnik's BOSS in Moscow
👉🏼Helped Cambridge Analytica MICROTARGET in 2014 midterms
👉🏼Charged w/#FARA violations for lobbying for #Ukraine

Nothing to see here.🔥

#ComplicitGOP
In the Patten filing, "Foreigner A" likely is "former" #GRU🇷🇺spy Konstantin Kilimnik, "Company A" likely is Begemot Ventures (formed by Patten & Kilimnkik) and the "prominent Ukrainian oligarch (Foreigner B)" may be Serhiy Lyovochkin.🤔

Trump's deputy campaign chair Rick Gates solicited proposals (#felony) from Israeli firm Psy Group to create fake online personas, use social media manipulation & gather intel to help defeat @GOP primary opponents (@tedcruz) & @HillaryClinton🤨1/
nytimes.com/2018/10/08/us/…
Gates wasn't interested in Psy Group b/c other Trump aides oversaw social media. George Nader & Joel Zamel (Psy Group owner) met w/Don Jr & offered to help *THROW THE ELECTION* at an Aug'16 meeting arranged by Erik Prince‼️

Nader is COOPERATING.😎 2/

George Birnbaum (Arthur Finkelstein protégé/@GOP consultant who worked for Netanyahu & other Israeli officials) initially pitched Gates on using social media influence/manipulation to sway @GOP delegates toward Trump.🤨 3/

🔥@GOP operative Peter Smith raised >$100,000 to pay #Russian🇷🇺hackers to find Clinton’s emails. 10 days after telling his story to the @WSJ, he committed suicide, yet a friend spoke w/him about a new project hours before his death & says he was “excited.”
wsj.com/articles/gop-o…
Smith continued his quest for HRC’s emails *after* the US warned of #Russian🇷🇺interference & went to extraordinary lengths to ensure secrecy, communicating via saved DRAFT (unsent) emails in a shared Gmail account.🤨
🔥One sent email said the >$100k in donations were to be sent to a DC-based scholarship fund for **Russian students**👉🏼“This $100k total with the $50k received from you (Smith) will allow us to fund the Washington Scholarship Fund for the Russian students for the promised $150K.”

Hey @SenatorCollins,

It’s not too late to change your vote! #Kavanaugh LIED to the Senate (#felony) about his finances.🤨

Who paid off his debt? If his family paid, did he report this income to the IRS⁉️

If the House flips, @tedlieu WILL investigate‼️

medium.com/@gregolear/sup…
Hey @lisamurkowski,

You were right and courageous to OPPOSE #Kavanaugh‼️

You might want to reconsider “pairing” your vote with @SteveDaines, because justice will come for #Kavanaugh, sooner than later.😉

Hey @Sen_JoeManchin,

We Democrats realize that you are in a tough re-election battle, but backing #Kavanaugh only brings you more scorn from the @GOP and erodes your much-needed support from @TheDemocrats base.

It’s not too late: vote NO on #Kavanaugh‼️

Connie Chung to Dr. Ford: “I, too, was sexually assaulted—not 36 years ago but ~50 years ago. I kept my dirty little secret to myself. Silence for 5 decades...The exact date & year are fuzzy. But details of the event are vivid—forever seared in my memory.”
washingtonpost.com/amphtml/opinio…
Connie Chung: “Christine, I, too, am terrified as I reveal this publicly. I can’t sleep. I can’t eat. Can you? If you can’t, I understand. I am frightened, I am scared, I can’t even cry.”😰

Chung: “I wish I could forget this truthful event, but I cannot because it is the truth. I am writing to you b/c I know that exact dates, exact years are insignificant. We remember exactly what happened to us & who did it to us. We remember the truth forever.”

I #BelieveHer.❤️

🔥WHOA🔥

Charles Ludington, a former varsity basketball player & friend of #Kavanaugh at @Yale plans to deliver a statement to the @FBI field office in Raleigh on Monday detailing **violent drunken behavior** by Kavanaugh in college. 1/

washingtonpost.com/amphtml/powerp…
Ludington says #Kavanaugh initiated a fight that led to the ARREST of a friend: “When Brett got drunk, he was often belligerent & aggressive...” 2/
“On one of the last occasions I purposely socialized with Brett, I witnessed him respond to a semi-hostile remark, not by defusing the situation, but by throwing his beer in the man’s face and starting a fight that ended with one of our mutual friends in jail.”😳 3/

🛑BREAKING🛑

Rod Rosenstein suggested last year that he secretly record Trump to expose "chaos" consuming the administration & discussed recruiting cabinet members to invoke the #25thAmendment.

Will Trump use this as an excuse to fire Rosenstein⁉️

nytimes.com/2018/09/21/us/…
Rosenstein made his remarks about the #25thAmendment & secretly recording Trump in meetings & conversations w/other DOJ & FBI officials. Several people (briefed either on the events themselves or on memos written by FBI officials, including McCabe) described the episodes.🤨
Rosenstein reportedly told McCabe that he might be able to persuade Jeff Sessions & John Kelly to mount an effort to invoke the #25thAmendment.

All of these incidents allegedly occurred around the time that @Comey was fired. Rosenstein was very distressed & felt he was used.🤔
