Florida businessmen who helped Giuliani in Ukraine arrested on campaign finance charges

You're too funny

There is a very important distinction to make here.
They gave money to Political Action Committees.

Starting in March 2018. Seems to me like it was a partisan set up, and the picture with Trump/Giuliani was part of what they were after in the first place. Attempting to buy influence with politicians, starting in March of 2018. Except the PAC they attempted to set up did what they were supposed to do.

Of further note, all parties involved but one are US Citizens. I don't know if going on a fishing expedition to look into these fellas is worth my time, such as their business associates, when they became citizens, etc.

Upon reading the court documentation, they gave money to two candidates in Nevada. The purpose of which to start a business selling legal Marijuana, and to get the Candidates to vote to make recreational Marijuana more available. They gave 10k to two different candidates.

No need too but you did.

negative flags for you

You are correct, it is not mentioned in that article. However, it is mentioned in the source article.

The men were charged with four counts, including conspiracy, falsification of records and lying to the FEC about their political donations, according to the indictment that outlines a conspiracy to funnel a Russian donor’s money into U.S. elections.

Also, it is laid out in more detail in the indictment LINK

More here. This is why Rick Perry is resigning IMO.
He has already been subpoened for docs.

They’ve apparently been trying to profit off of their connections to the administration and the president’s extortion of Ukraine.

Parnas and Fruman have reportedly teamed up with a Trump-supporting Florida oil magnate to start 45 Energy Group—a Houston-based energy company reportedly looking to do business in Ukraine—whose name is a transparent reference to the 45th president.
To maximize their profits, the three have reportedly been pushing for a change in leadership at Naftogaz, a state-owned Ukrainian energy company with which they were looking to swing a deal. (Their lawyer denies that their efforts were “a shakedown,” calling it “an attempt to do legitimate business that didn’t work out.”)
This push reportedly recently gained them an ally: departing U.S. Secretary of Energy Rick Perry, who’s been pushing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to install a new board at Naftogaz—including “a fellow Texan who is one of Perry’s past political donors.” This new board would almost certainly be friendlier to Parnas and Fruman’s interests as well. (A spokesperson for the Energy Department has denied that Perry was “advancing anyone’s personal interests,” saying Perry’s conversations about Naftogaz were “part of his efforts to reform the country’s energy sector and create an environment in which Western companies can do business.”)
