THREAD: here's why the photos – posted by @StormyDaniels' rockstar attorney @MichaelAvenatti – of Michael Cohen and Misha Flynn with Qatari businessman Ahmed al-Rumaihi at Trump Tower are BIGLY bad news for Team🇷🇺Traitor. 1/
During Village Idiot Carter Page's testimony before @HouseIntelComm, @RepAdamSchiff got Page to admit he discussed the #Rosneft🇷🇺sale & dropping #sanctions w/the head of Rosneft's investor relations (Baranov) in July 2016, **5 months BEFORE** the sale‼️ 3/
The whole #Rosneft deal is SHADY. Glencore put in €300 million (<3% of the total). Italian bank Intesa SanPaolo lent the Singapore shell co €5.2 billion & #Qatar put in €2.5 billion.
Sources of funding for ~25% of the purchase price have NOT been disclosed‼️ 6/
In addition, public records show the ownership structure of the #Rosneft shares also includes a Cayman Islands shell co whose true owners are UNKNOWN.🤨
So we still don't know WHO is the real buyer of 19.5% of #Rosneft, and WHO ultimately got the shares.🙄 7/
Trust me, I will get back to Avenatti's tweets in a moment.😉
It's ALL connected‼️ 8/
Reuters: "the deal came as a SURPRISE to #Rosneft’s shareholders, including Britain’s BP, which owns 19.75% of Rosneft & is ON ITS BOARD.
The Rosneft board learned about the sale from CEO Sechin, hours AFTER Sechin recorded his TV meeting w/Putin announcing it‼️ 9/
So Carter Page knew about the impending #Rosneft deal in July 2016, **FIVE MONTHS BEFORE** it happened, yet Rosneft's own board didn't know what was going on⁉️ 10/

Ahmed al-Rumaihi, who was filmed walking into a TT meeting w/Cohen, Flynn & presumably others, works for #Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), which Qatar used to buy its #Rosneft stake.🤨 11/
So Michael Cohen (who supposedly did NOT work on the campaign), Misha🇷🇺Flynn (and others?) met w/the group that bought the #Rosneft shares **just 5 days after the deal**⁉️
Yet another "coincidence."🙄 12/

TIMELINE:
12/1: Flynn, Kushner (+ others?) secretly met w/Kislyak
12/7: #Rosneft sold 19.5% stake w/murky financing & owners
12/12: Flynn, Cohen (+ others?) met w/QIA (al-Rumaihi) involved w/#Rosneft deal
12/13: Flynn, Kush (+others?) secretly met w/#Russian banker Gorkov
13/
On the **same day** (Dec 12) that #Rosneft buyer QIA's US representative (al-Rumaihi) met w/Cohen, Flynn (+others?) at Trump Tower, Village Idiot Carter Page was in MOSCOW‼️
Yet another "coincidence."🙄 14/
During his testimony before House Intel, Page said that he bankrolled his own trip to Moscow, yet he was UNEMPLOYED. Page also claimed that he couldn't recall what business he sought.🙄 15/

Here's the deal: perhaps 0.5% of #Rosneft doesn't sound like much to you. But in REAL dollars, that equates to well over $250,000,000‼️
So I'm guessing that Village Idiot Carter Page had a quarter of a BILLION reasons NOT to remember why he was in Moscow.😉 16/
🔥KUSH🔥
The plot thickens. Not only did #Qatar's QIA play a central role in the #Rosneft deal, but QIA also is one of the largest investors in Apollo👉🏼gave Kushner a MASSIVE loan **after** Kush was in the WH‼️ 17/

Even worse, according to a lawsuit filed by Ice Cube & his partner (Jeff Kwatinetz), QIA allegedly **bribed** Misha Flynn and tried to bribe Bannon (via Kwatinetz).😳
Seemingly EVERYONE on Team🇷🇺Traitor was on the take‼️ 18/

Plus, don't forget that Kushner and his father tried to use US foreign policy as leverage to force #Qatar to bail out their failed 666 Fifth Ave investment.🤬 19/

👉🏼Confirms a meeting btwn Team Trump & #Qatar's QIA just days after the #Rosneft deal & on the SAME DAY Page was in Moscow
👉🏼Connects BOTH the campaign (Flynn) & Trump Org (Cohen) to the meet

The **only** reason why Michael Cohen would have attended a meeting w/QIA's al-Rumaihi is that Cohen was representing Trump Org and/or @realDonaldTrump at the meeting‼️
Yet Misha Flynn from the **campaign** also was there.🤨
WHO ELSE ATTENDED⁉️ 21/
It is utterly bizarre for both Trump's CAMPAIGN and his BUSINESS to meet with the US representative for #Qatar's investment group (QIA).🤔
WHAT DID THEY DISCUSS⁉️ 22/

Here's the kicker: Misha Flynn attended this meeting, as well as other important #TrumpRussia🇷🇺meetings (w/Kislyak, Gorkov & others).
Flynn FLIPPED, meaning that Mueller knows EVERYTHING that happened at these meetings, included WHO attended & WHAT was discussed‼️🤗 23/
These latest revelations, courtesy of the indefatigable @MichaelAvenatti, provide yet MORE evidence that....
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‼️
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.”
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.
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.”
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/
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/
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⁉️
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.🤔
