FUSION GPS RUSSIAN LOBBYISTS - Sen Grassley Notice to

Pretty Easy to see the whole set up by FUSION GPS, the same people providing the fake Steele Dossier.

I. I. Executive Summary
1. There is an ongoing lobbying campaign to repeal the Magnitsky Act (the
“Campaign”) and rewrite the history of the Magnitsky story. This campaign has been
conducted by the following entities
A. Prevezon Holdings Limited (“Prevezon”) - a Russian owned Cyprus registered
company
B. The Human Rights Accountability Global Initiative Foundation (“HRAGIF”) -
a Delaware NGO created on 18 February 2016.
2. To assist them in the Campaign, based on information and belief, the following
people have been hired to lobby on their behalf:
A. Rinat Akhmetshin – Russian national living in Washington D.C.
B. Robert Arakelian
C. Chris Cooper – CEO Potomac Square Group
D. Glenn Simpson - SNS Global and Fusion GPS ***
E. Mark Cymrot – Partner, Baker Hostetler
F. Ron Dellums - Former Republican Congressman
G. Howard Schweitzer – Managing Partner of Cozen O’Connor Public
Strategies

So the story grows deeper.

If this information was available to Sen. Grassley almost realtime, why was the Obama FBI or DOJ (who let Veselnitskaya in) not involved with obvious Russian operations. Surely they knew .

Do you think instead of copy pasting a whole huge block of text and snipping parts of it with "blah blah blah" you could actually attempt to summarize what we are supposed to be reading? Your title makes a ton of claims yet you do zero leg work to show why we should jump to this conclusion in your opening post.

Blah blah blah is a nice touch

What's your source for this information?

I guess the name 'Fusion' is apt. Quite a lot of money funneled into them from what we are led to believe are opposing sides.

They (the elite) have shown their hand.

How does Jeb Bush fit into this?

Not that I would doubt it: The Bushes are as "Deep State" as you get. Jeb's daddy is a former head of the CIA, you know.

Apparently his 'supporters' paid for it.... plausible deniability, eh?

"Yadda Yadda Yadda" works well, too.
Good summery, OP.

Looks like the Ruskies will work with anyone to add chaos to the election...especially when it is to bring down Trump.

They must've preferred a President Clinton to a President Trump.

They had Veselnitskaya operating under the purpose of Foreign Adoptions, which she obviously was not, but used to gain meetings with people.

Fusion GPS is also the people who through an associate set up Trump Jr.s meeting with "Veselnitskaya"

Fusion GPS is also the source of the "steele dossier" which McCain bit onto.

Fusion GPS was hired by DNC, and by a Republican Super PAC thought to be bolstering Jeb Bush at the time.

But the person I would like to learn more about perhaps is the guy in the State Dept.--- was he a Hillary connection?
Anatoly Samochornov, Russian born professional interpreter and project manager for the US State Department

And of course the Trash senators involved (former) Dellmus and Dana Rohrabacher

Me too. Veselnitskaya has been pretty well sussed out by now. She's a lawyer by trade, seems to be anti-Trump (based on her social media), and is really just a low-level hired goon in all of this.

But Samochornov... a former KGB agent, now a State Department employee... what is his angle? Is this proof that the whole meeting was set up by Obama's people as a political stunt?

a reply to: butcherguy

The story resembles one of those creative knots a gang of kids made to hold their tree house together ...good luck untying it .

Heaven forbid someone come up with an OP that has a misleading title. That never happens on ATS.

What are you talking about?

thefederalist.com... senator-wait-the-firm-behind-trump-dossier-was-funded-by-russia/

Sen. Lindsay Graham (R-S.C.), a Trump critic, asked ousted FBI Director James Comey about Fusion GPS and what Graham called “the Russian intelligence apparatus.” The Federalist described their Q and A this way:

Graham: Are you familiar with Fusion?
Comey: I know the name.
Graham: Are they part of the Russian intelligence apparatus?
Comey: I can’t say.
Graham: Do you agree with me that if Fusion was involved in preparing a dossier against Donald Trump, that would be interfering in our election by the Russians?
Comey: I don’t want to say.

How Russia-gate Met the Magnitsky Myth

Near the center of the current furor over Donald Trump Jr.’s meeting with a Russian lawyer in June 2016 is a documentary that almost no one in the West has been allowed to see, a film that flips the script on the story of the late Sergei Magnitsky and his employer, hedge-fund operator William Browder.

The Russian lawyer, Natalie Veselnitskaya, who met with Trump Jr. and other advisers to Donald Trump Sr.’s campaign, represented a company that had run afoul of a U.S. investigation into money-laundering allegedly connected to the Magnitsky case and his death in a Russian prison in 2009. His death sparked a campaign spearheaded by Browder, who used his wealth and clout to lobby the U.S. Congress in 2012 to enact the Magnitsky Act to punish alleged human rights abusers in Russia. The law became what might be called the first shot in the New Cold War.

According to Browder’s narrative, companies ostensibly under his control had been hijacked by corrupt Russian officials in furtherance of a $230 million tax-fraud scheme; he then dispatched his “lawyer” Magnitsky to investigate and – after supposedly uncovering evidence of the fraud – Magnitsky blew the whistle only to be arrested by the same corrupt officials who then had him locked up in prison where he died of heart failure from physical abuse.

Despite Russian denials – and the “dog ate my homework” quality of Browder’s self-serving narrative – the dramatic tale became a cause celebre in the West. The story eventually attracted the attention of Russian filmmaker Andrei Nekrasov, a known critic of President Vladimir Putin. Nekrasov decided to produce a docu-drama that would present Browder’s narrative to a wider public. Nekrasov even said he hoped that he might recruit Browder as the narrator of the tale.

However, the project took an unexpected turn when Nekrasov’s research kept turning up contradictions to Browder’s storyline, which began to look more and more like a corporate cover story. Nekrasov discovered that a woman working in Browder’s company was the actual whistleblower and that Magnitsky – rather than a crusading lawyer – was an accountant who was implicated in the scheme.

So, the planned docudrama suddenly was transformed into a documentary with a dramatic reversal as Nekrasov struggles with what he knows will be a dangerous decision to confront Browder with what appear to be deceptions. In the film, you see Browder go from a friendly collaborator into an angry adversary who tries to bully Nekrasov into backing down.

I was referring to the clever replacement of all the footnotes and links with "blah blah blah".

Do you have any evidence that Fusion GPS was hired by the DNC? The DNC isn't synonymous with "Democratic donors" or "a Democratic PAC," etc.

How about evidence that the original funding was from a Super PAC supporting Jeb Bush?

And of course the Trash senators involved (former) Dellmus and Dana Rohrabacher

Rohrabacher and Dellums shouldn't be an afterthought, they're more involved than anyone and Rohrabacher is a sitting Representative who appears to be taking direction from the Kremlin. How this isn't a bigger deal is beyond me. It's not like everyone is entirely oblivious here. Paul Behrends was canned for his involvement, reportedly under pressure from Rep. Ed Royce.

Nekrasov interview :

So this is the Propaganda the Russian's including Veselnitskaya were pushing to be screened by US lawmakers, Dana Rohrabacher of California apparently took the screening and then pressed to halt or rename the Act. It was also blocked from being screened by the EU parliament..

Apparently in 2012 Rohrabacher was told by the FBI that he was being used by intelligence agents of Russia as a target of unwitting influence.
