Dimitri Simes, Richard Burt (Alfa Bank, Gazprom, etc.), Henry Kissinger and David Keene.

18/ The article above discusses Anatoly Petukhov.
In Russia, Petukhov was a member of an government organization that was supposed to be fighting crime.
But instead of fighting crime, Petukhov partnered with the mob. They were so corrupt, their organization was shut down.

19/ The @MiamiHerald's reporting found that Petukhov spent ~ $40 million on real estate in South Florida.
Why does all this matter? How does it relate to the NRA? Well, one of Petukhov's bosses in Russia was a mafia boss named Arnold Tamm.

20/ Tamm is an underboss in the Mogilevich Organization. It can be a bit confusing, but for clarity:
Arnold Tamm is a mafia boss. #SemionMogilevich is the boss of bosses, so Arnold Tamm is also an underboss in the Mogilevich Organization. Make sense?

Torshin, Keene, Butina, Paul Erickson and their relationship to Trump and his campaign all discussed at length.

You may not be familiar with Paul Erickson. Who's he again?
motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
25/ Paul Erickson was identified in a USA Today obituary as a “friend and ally” of the late Breitbart News founder Andrew Breitbart. He's also a former board member of the American Conservative Union (group that organizes CPAC). David Keene was the ACU chairman from 1984-2011.
26/ "Kremlin Connection"
“Putin is deadly serious about building a good relationship with Mr. Trump,” the N.R.A. member and conservative activist, Paul Erickson, wrote in May 2016. “He wants to extend an invitation to Mr. Trump to visit him in the Kremlin before the election."

34/ So, what does it all mean?
Here’s the thing. Roger Stone & Donald Trump like to play games with the MSM. Roger Stone “quit” Trump’s campaign in its early stages back in 2015. That’s the story, at least, but it’s never that simple. Not with these two.

35/ Trump said he fired Stone from the campaign. Roger said he quit.
It doesn’t really matter. Why? Because Stone kept working for Trump “unofficially.” It was better to have a degree of separation between them when Stone remained involved. He talked to WikiLeaks, for instance.

36/ WikiLeaks is an arm of Russian Military Intelligence aka the GRU. Stone admitted contacting WikiLeaks in the past (though the dirty trickster's story has changed repeatedly), by the way, but in case anyone needed more confirmation, here you go.
washingtonpost.com/politics/roger…
washingtonpost.com/politics/roger…
37/ Why would Stone keep working for Trump after he was fired/quit the campaign? Because they’ve been friends since the 1970s. They’re still friends. Donald and Roger had the same mentor in Roy Cohn, and they’ve both spent the better part of three decades cozying up to Russia.
38/ It’s there to see for anyone who wants to know. Stone and Trump never stray too far from one another.
The MSM often has a short attention span and forgets these things, but there are more than a few hints out there. Like this, for instance.
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4…

39/ But how does all of this connect, right? How do we put the pieces together?
Well, when it comes to Trump, Stone & South Florida, it’s all about the mob doing what the mob does best. Take over territory. South Florida is the Russian mob’s territory.

79/ Now, do you know who was the head of CPAC’s parent company from 1984-2011?
David Keene. He left in 2011 to serve as president of the NRA.
David Keene set up CPAC 2011. He would've sent out the invitations, right? This was his baby, after all.

80/ So then maybe, just maybe, Trump was actually telling the truth when he said this?
81/ No, they couldn't plan every detail, but Trump's victory was as important as the defeat of "the establishment", wasn't it?
This was all about Nixon's boys getting their revenge.
The "liberal media" is the reason Nixon got impeached, after all.

82/ Roy Cohn was a "mentor to Stone and Trump and taught both men how to manipulate the media and bully opponents. After he died, they carried on in his spirit."
Seems to me this group would've been willing to do just about anything to get out from under.

83/ All of this is to say, I tend to think Trump's speech at the Mayflower Hotel needs more attention. Because The Nixon Center/The Center for the National Interest's president, Dmitri Simes knows all about Russia and Richard Nixon. 🚩🚩⬇️⬇️

84/ Dismiss all of this as a conspiracy theory, if you like.
But you know, if you do, you'll be doing exactly what the conspiracy theorist with a tattoo of Richard Nixon on his back wants you to do.

85/ Maybe take a minute and reconsider, okay?
It's really not a lot to ask.
Thanks for reading.

CODA from time to time seems appropriate for this thread. I'll add as more comes to light.
For now ... CPAC = David Keene in charge from 1984-2011, right?
So, this is interesting.

And a whole lot of over the top nonsense from the same Dana Loesch (now the NRA spokesperson) at CPAC 2018.
The fear is real.
