    Russian Oligarch Who Allegedly Paid Michael Cohen Is Linked to Clinton Foundation and John Pod

    Michael Avenatti, the attorney for Stormy Daniels, alleged on Tuesday that a Russian oligarch paid Trump Attorney Michael Cohen $500,000 for “insights” into the Trump administration.

    The deposits were made in the months following the 2016 election.

    After significant investigation, we have discovered that Mr. Trump’s atty Mr. Cohen received approximately $500,000 in the mos. after the election from a company controlled by a Russian Oligarc with close ties to Mr. Putin. These monies may have reimbursed the $130k payment.
    — Michael Avenatti (@MichaelAvenatti) May 8, 2018
    NBC News reported:
    Stormy Daniels’ attorney claimed Tuesday that President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen received $500,000 from a company controlled by a Russian oligarch, deposited into an account for a company also used to pay off the adult film actress.
    Daniels’ attorney, Michael Avenatti, also detailed other transactions he said were suspicious, including deposits from drug giant Novartis, the state-run Korea Aerospace Industries, and AT&T — which confirmed it paid Cohen’s company for “insights” into the Trump administration.
    If true, Avenatti’s claims, made in a dossier posted to Twitter, could add a new dimension to the federal investigation into Cohen.
    Avenatti offered no proof for his allegations.
    It is also not clear how the porn star’s attorney would discover the private information.


    Now this…
    The Russian oligarch is linked to Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundation.

    The Examiner reported on the Clinton ties to in 2016.
    New emails show Clinton Foundation staff pushed Hillary Clinton’s State Department to approve a meeting between Bill Clinton and a powerful Russian oligarch as her agency lined up investors for a project under his purview.
    The Clintons’ relationship with Viktor Vekselberg, the billionaire whose name appears in the documents, has taken on new significance amid an expanding criminal investigation into his company. Last week, authorities raided the offices of Vekselberg’s firm, Renova Group, following allegations of bribery from several of Renova’s subsidiaries.
    Vekselberg had been named head of a partnership dubbed the “Russian Silicon Valley” just three months before a Clinton Foundation employee began pushing the State Department to approve Bill Clinton’s proposed meeting with Vekselberg and a handful of other Russian executives.
    The emails, obtained by conservative-leaning Citizens United and provided first to the Washington Examiner, do not reveal any illegal activity on the part of the State Department, the Clintons or their foundation.
    But the records shed light on one of many relationships that blurred the lines between the Clinton’s political, financial and philanthropic pursuits while Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state.
    Vekselberg’s Renova Group has donated between $50,000 and $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation, donor records show. Another firm associated with Vekselberg, OC Oerlikon, donated $25,000 to the Clinton Foundation.
    And Viktor Vekselberg is also linked to John Podesta
    Via the Stone Cold Truth:
    Just how much money did Viktor Vekselberg, a controversial Russian billionaire investor with ties to the Vladimir Putin and the Russian government, launder through Metcombank, a Russian regional bank owned 99.978 percent by Vekselberg, with the money transferred via Deutsche Bank and Trust Company Americas in New York City, with the money ending up in a private bank account in the Bank of America that is operated by the Clinton Foundation?
    Wikileaks emails tie John Podesta, chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, into the money-laundering network with the confirmation Podesta had exercised 75,000 shares out of 100,000 previously undisclosed stock options he was secretly issued by Joule Unlimited, a U.S. corporation that ties back to Vekselberg connected Joule Global Stichting in the Netherlands – a shady entity identified in the Panama Papers as an offshore money-laundering client of the notorious Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca.
    As a clear indication of guilty conscience, the Wikileaks Podesta file further documents that Podesta made a serious effort to keep the transaction from coming to light as evidenced by his decision to transfer 75,000 common shares of Joule Unlimited to Leonidio LLC, another shady shell corporation – this one listed in Salt Lake City at the home apartment of the gentlemen who registered the company.
    Further research has documented that Viktor Vekselberg arranged for two transfers of unknown amounts to a private Clinton Foundation account in the Bank of America,

    What’s the use of posting all of these media stories without connecting the dots?!?


    Viktor Vekselberg is one of the 10 richest men in Russia, and together with long-time business partner Blavatnik (they met at university in Russia), Sual Partners, hold a 20.5% stake in the Rusal of Oleg Deripaska and Nat Rothschild. Blavatnik was born in Russia and has American citizenship.
    In 1990, Blavatnik and Vekselberg co-founded the Renova Group; one of their earliest investments was in Tyumen Oil Co. (TNK), founded in 1995. In 2003, TNK formed a joint venture with British Petroleum (BP). That relationship ended 10 years later when they sold to the state-controlled Rosneft.
    Vekselberg has connections to at least 2 Americans that made large Republican campaign contributions.


    Goldman Sachs, Bonesman Steve Mnuchin owned Hollywood financing company RatPac-Dune with Len Blavatnik.
    Mnuchin sold his stake before becoming Treasury Secretary without disclosing to whom.

    Blavatnik is the founder of Access Industries that now owns Warner Music Group. In 2015, Blavatnik was called Britain’s richest man: http://www.conspiracyschool.com/blog...igarchs-part-i
    (archived here: http://archive.is/vjyG6)


    US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross is the wealthiest member of Trump’s cabinet with an estimated $2.9 billion.
    In 2014, Ross led the €1 billion takeover of the Bank of Cyprus. The billionaire Russian industrialist Viktor Vekselberg invested in the bank takeover. Vekselberg was present at the December 2015 dinner in Moscow for RT, where Trump’s future national security adviser Michael Flynn and Jill Stein were photographed at the same table as Putin.

    Some transactions through the Bank of Cyprus involved Paul Manafort: https://www.theguardian.com/news/201...aradise-papers
    (archived here: http://archive.is/eylvs)


    Donald Trump’s relationship with Deutsche Bank began in 1998 when he “loaned” $125 million.
    Part of the $10 billion in mirror trades through Deutsche Bank’s Moscow office involved money from Putin associates and childhood friends Arkady and Boris Rotenberg.
    The Rotenberg brothers have a long association with Ukrainian oligarch Dmitry Firtash, who has long-time ties to Paul Manafort.

    One favoured recipient of Deutsche Bank “loans” was giant telecommunications company VimpelCom (VIP), recently renamed VEON (214 million subscribers). It is listed on the NYSE and part of the Alfa Group of Mikhail M. Fridman and Pyotr Aven.
    According to a 2 October 2016 report, Robert Mercer’s RenTec bought 866,100 shares of VIP.

    Deutsche Bank helped US clients with “basket options” to evade taxes.
    Between 2000 and 2012, Renaissance Technology (RenTec) purchased 29 basket options with a notional value of $46 billion and profits totalling $15.9 billion. The co-CEO of RenTec, billionaire Robert Mercer, contributed over $20 million to Republican candidates during the 2016 election campaign (and was one of the biggest supporters to Trump’s campaign). Robert Mercer also funded Breitbart and the SCL Group (parent company of Cambridge Analytica).
    In 2016, Dmitry Firtash was a board member of SCL when Mike Flynn was a paid consultant. Cambridge Analytica employed Steve Bannon and Kellyanne Conway.

    In November 2014, former CEO of Deutsche Bank, Josef Ackerman, became chairman of the Bank of Cyprus. This was proposed by its major shareholder Wilbur Ross. Josef Ackerman is also on the board of Renova.
    The second-largest shareholder of Bank of Cyprus at this time was Viktor Vekselberg, another Russian oligarch and head of the Renova Corp. Vekselberg is also in business with Mikhail Fridman in AAR. Vekselberg sold his Aluminium company to Oleg Deripaska, who turned it into Rusal.


    Another large shareholder of the Bank of Cyprus is Dmitry Rybolovlev, who was also in business with Robert Mercer as co-CEO of the Hedge Fund RenTec.: https://whowhatwhy.org/2018/01/15/de...ussian-part-2/

    The attorney of Trump supporter and porn star Stormy Daniels, Michael Avenatti, has claimed that the Delaware shell company of Trump’s long-time attorney, Michael Cohen, received half a million dollars from a firm linked to “Russian” oligarch Viktor Vekselberg, Columbus Nova.
    This was denied by Columbus Nova…
    Columbus Nova quickly released a statement it was: “owned and controlled by Americans and not Vekselberg”.

    In 2014, the FBI warned that a foundation controlled by Vekselberg could be used to spy on “sensitive or classified research”.
    The Guardian reported that: “American investment vehicles managed for Vekselberg by Columbus Nova were used to secure $450m in loans that Vekselberg took from the Russian state-controlled VTB Bank”.
    That looks like a cozy relationship between Vekselberg and Columbus Nova…

    Then came the report that 11 days before Trump’s inauguration Vekselberg met Michael Cohen in Trump Tower, to discuss US-Russian relations.
    In one of those strange coincidences, after the inauguration Columbus Nova hired Cohen for $1 million worth of “consultancy”: http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/05/did-viktor-vekselberg-funnel-russian-money-to-michael-cohen.html

    Leftist government worshipers are never going to join an "anti authoritarian bipartisan populist movement", a few may dally with us for awhile and try to take over and get us to embrace socialism but then the next comrade Bernie will come along and they will desert us, meanwhile their presence will deter anyone who actually might believe in small government.

    As my very PRO-Bernie leftwing friends keep on telling me,
    the Clintons and the Trump's socialized together in the Big
    Apple. The FBI wiretap on one of Donald's customers in the
    Bigly Tower was quite legitimate. Mueller likes to RED HUNT.

    I believe that they (the Clintons) actually got paid millions to get their favourite puppet Donald “I’m a billionaire” Trump elected, because they know he has no morals and will stop at nothing to serve the interests of his financers.

    8 years earlier Hillary also got Obama elected.
    That was 8 years after Clinton/Gore got Bush Jr. elected.
    That was 8 years after Bush Sr. got Clinton elected.

    If you again post about some crook donating to Clinton, you could (should) have posted that (associates of) Vekselberg has donated to Donald Drumpf.

    In 1990, Leonard “Len” Blavatnik and Viktor Vekselberg co-founded the Renova Group. Vekselberg and Blavatnik hold a 20.5% stake in Rusal (controlled by Oleg Deripaska and Nat Rothschild).
    Vekselberg has connections to at least 2 Americans that made large Republican campaign contributions.
    In the late '70s, Blavatnik's family emigrated from the USSR to the US.

    In the 2015-16 election cycle, US-UK citizen Blavatnik was one of the largest donors to the Republicans.
    In 2015-16, Blavatnik's political contributions soared to $6.35 million only to Republican action committees - including Senators Mitch McConnell, Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham.

    Andrew Intrater has been reported as Vekselberg's cousin and is chief executive of Columbus Nova -Renova's US investment arm.
    In January 2017, Intrater contributed $250,000 to Trump's Inaugural Committee. His gift got him invited to a dinner billed as "an intimate policy discussion with select cabinet appointees”.

    From 1998 to 2003, oil magnate Simon Kukes worked for Vekselberg and Blavatnik as CEO of TNK. In June 2003, Kukes resigned as CEO of TNK to join the board of Yukos Oil, at the time the largest oil company in Russia owned by the richest Russian, Mikhail Khodorkovsky. Four months after Kukes joined the board, authorities arrested Khodorkovsky to make Kukes the CEO.
    In 2016, Kukes contributed a total of $283,000, most of it to Trump’s Victory Fund.

    From the start of the 2015-16 election cycle through September 2017, Blavatnik, Intrater, Shustorovich and Kukes made $10.4 million donations to US politicians (99% of it to Republicans): https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/c...-gop-campaigns
    (archived here: http://archive.is/zlfiu)


    In 1993, Senator Mitch McConnell, who received $2 million from Lev Blavatnik, married Elaine L. Chao (Trump’s Secretary of Transportation). CFR-member Chao was an official in the Reagan administration and secretary of labor in both George W. Bush cabinets (from 2001 to 2009).

    Elaine’s father, James S.C. Chao, is a long-time friend of the president of China in the 1990s - Jiang Zemin (they were classmates at Jiao Tong University).

    Elaine Chao and McConnell are also connected to John Huang of the Indonesian Lippo Bank of the Riady family.
    Lippo was at the centre of the Clinton “Chinagate” fundraising scandal, in which Lippo´s chief executive James T. Riady pled guilty to illegally donating to Bill Clinton: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6467747

    Is this being implied here that Michael Cohen was in bed with both MAGA Trump and socialist Clinton?

    Thought Trump and Clinton were poles apart and had nothing to do with each other.

    In other news, lawyer Cohen has just hired is close to Clintons:

    Former Trump Fixer Michael Cohen Is Hiring a Major Trump Critic as His Own Lawyer

    Stormy Daniels’ Lawyer Says Michael Cohen Got Money From a Russian Oligarch
    About $500,000.

    By Bloomberg July 6, 2018

    Longtime Donald Trump attorney and fixer Michael Cohen has brought in an outspoken critic of the president — a former special counsel for Bill Clinton — to help respond to a federal probe of his businesses and finances.
    Lawyer and crisis manager Lanny Davis confirmed Thursday that he’s representing Cohen. Davis is the author of The Unmaking of the President 2016, in which he questions the legitimacy of Trump’s election and raises the possibility of removing Trump from office for “mental impairment.”
    “Like most of America, I have been following the matter regarding Michael Cohen with great interest,” Davis said in a statement. “As an attorney, I have talked to Michael many times in the last two weeks. Then I read his words published on July 2, and I recognized his sincerity. Michael Cohen deserves to tell his side of the story — subject, of course, to the advice of counsel.”
    ABC News on July 2 published excerpts from an interview with Cohen in which he rejected Trump’s description of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe as a “witch hunt.” Cohen also said he puts “family and country first,” before protecting the president.

    You keep telling us what won't work, just like everyone who's working at dividing Americans politically so the politicians can get away with bipartisan murder. But those of us who have been here since before John Bolton started paying people to spam for Trump know for a fact that Democrats can be convinced that government is better local, and we'd all be better off voting for small government libertarian federal candidates, and argue about how much socialism to maintain at the state and local level.

    We know that case can be made, because we attracted quite a few of them to that cause. Yes, they abandoned that cause for Bernie, by design--Bernie got a lot of publicity and this forum was full of spammers designed to convince them Rand couldn't win because we weren't united behind him. You know, the Purity Test Spammers. They arrived about the time Bolton started hiring spammers. Just about the time you showed up.

    Most Republicans vote for whoever gets the most publicity in the primary season. I don't know how to break this to you, but there's about 10% of the amount of traffic on this site since you committed yourself to making it safe for Republicans as there was when it was inviting to anyone who was interested in looking past the question, 'Who has the most famous and recognizable name?'

    You probably reject the wisdom of, 'It's probably better to have him inside the tent pissing out than outside the tent pissing in,' because L.B.J. said it. But like everything of value the liberals have ever had, L.B.J. stole that--from a Civil War general. A Union general. A Republican. But you spew so much piss no one can get near our tent.

    The numbers speak for themselves. And what they are saying loud and clear is, the people you want to chase away are many and the people you want to make this site safe for don't give a flying $#@! about what we're doing here. If Bryan had a lick of sense he'd shoot you.

    That was 8 years after Bush Sr. got Clinton elected.
    I’m afraid I’m too young to have followed the Reagan against Carter election, but I have found some convincing stories that the Reagan-Bush team actually paid Iran to keep the hostage drama going to get Carter out of the White House: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6620988
    This is incorrect, she wanted the presidency for herself both times, she made an alliance with O'Bummer because they shared interests and he was willing to give her a cabinet post and attempt to make her President after his two terms, her team initially wanted to run against Trump because they thought his old ties with their faction would ensure that he would roll over and hand her the presidency, after he made it clear he was running to win she switched to playing hardball.

    If you again post about some crook donating to Clinton, you could (should) have posted that (associates of) Vekselberg has donated to Donald Drumpf.
    In the first place I don't keep an unabridged file on every crook in the world in my head or on my hard drive, in the second the article I posted does contain the allegations that there are connections between Vekselberg and Trump, in the third I am not posting a complete diagram of every connection between every politician each time I post a piece of news, I post the new information.

    Vekselberg has connections to at least 2 Americans that made large Republican campaign contributions.
    In the late '70s, Blavatnik's family emigrated from the USSR to the US.

    In the 2015-16 election cycle, US-UK citizen Blavatnik was one of the largest donors to the Republicans.
    In 2015-16, Blavatnik's political contributions soared to $6.35 million only to Republican action committees - including Senators Mitch McConnell, Marco Rubio and Lindsey Graham.

    Andrew Intrater has been reported as Vekselberg's cousin and is chief executive of Columbus Nova -Renova's US investment arm.
    In January 2017, Intrater contributed $250,000 to Trump's Inaugural Committee. His gift got him invited to a dinner billed as "an intimate policy discussion with select cabinet appointees”.

    From 1998 to 2003, oil magnate Simon Kukes worked for Vekselberg and Blavatnik as CEO of TNK. In June 2003, Kukes resigned as CEO of TNK to join the board of Yukos Oil, at the time the largest oil company in Russia owned by the richest Russian, Mikhail Khodorkovsky. Four months after Kukes joined the board, authorities arrested Khodorkovsky to make Kukes the CEO.
    In 2016, Kukes contributed a total of $283,000, most of it to Trump’s Victory Fund.

    From the start of the 2015-16 election cycle through September 2017, Blavatnik, Intrater, Shustorovich and Kukes made $10.4 million donations to US politicians (99% of it to Republicans): https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/c...-gop-campaigns
    (archived here: http://archive.is/zlfiu)


    In 1993, Senator Mitch McConnell, who received $2 million from Lev Blavatnik, married Elaine L. Chao (Trump’s Secretary of Transportation). CFR-member Chao was an official in the Reagan administration and secretary of labor in both George W. Bush cabinets (from 2001 to 2009).

    Elaine’s father, James S.C. Chao, is a long-time friend of the president of China in the 1990s - Jiang Zemin (they were classmates at Jiao Tong University).

    Elaine Chao and McConnell are also connected to John Huang of the Indonesian Lippo Bank of the Riady family.
    Lippo was at the centre of the Clinton “Chinagate” fundraising scandal, in which Lippo´s chief executive James T. Riady pled guilty to illegally donating to Bill Clinton: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6467747
    This is all useful information but it isn't exceptionally useful, once you realize that just about every megarich or powerful person is connected to the factions and that the factions have many interconnections the exact connections are only important if you are preparing a prosecution or a conspiracy expose, I am not doing either.

    I fully realize that Trump was and is connected to the factions that is why I didn't vote for him and was skeptical at the beginning of his administration, however it has become clear that at least two different factions have ceased cooperating and have begun to fight, the faction/s that Trump is working for/with is/are much better than those opposed to him.

    We know that case can be made, because we attracted quite a few of them to that cause. Yes, they abandoned that cause for Bernie, by design--Bernie got a lot of publicity and this forum was full of spammers designed to convince them Rand couldn't win because we weren't united behind him. You know, the Purity Test Spammers. They arrived about the time Bolton started hiring spammers. Just about the time you showed up.
    It didn't work by your own admission, liberals only want localized government when they think the larger jurisdiction is going against them, as soon as someone (and there will always be someone) offers to let them force liberalism on a whole state or nation or the world they will jump on board that train.
    Meanwhile their presence drives away those who might actually stay committed to small and/or localized government.

    I see you complain about "purity test spammers", so why do you act like one?

    It has much more to do with you and the rest of the TDS brigade and the usual enemy trolls like zippy and thecount.
    You have succeeded in driving away anyone who can recognize the good Trump is doing, those who haven't been driven completely away have been browbeaten into rarely posting, only the most determined of us bother coming here.

    It also might have to do with the fact that we don't have any high profile candidates running major campaigns right now while Rand was running for President when I first came here from the dailypaul.

    Dick Van Dyke Last night CNN International CNN gave me ten minutes live to talk about Bernie Sanders who has been scantily covered by them in favor of the Donald J. Trump circus. It was pre-empted completely to cover another outburst by Trump. This pandering to the scandal hungry public is a total lack of responsible journalism. I accuse CNN of extreme bias.

    I am severely disappointed (but not surprised) to learn that Dick Van Dyke is a Bernie Bro, but I am grateful that you exposed yourself as one.

    It looks like you intentionally looked for an article that points the fingers at Clinton.

    You paint with a mighty broad brush. Of course, when you're a Bolton spammer trying to aid the swampsters by keeping the populace divided, broad, sweeping statements serve your masters best. But they are all fifty percent lies, because half the people you're demonizing will prove you dead wrong.

    All I exposed is your pitiful guilt by association tactics and your habit of attacking the free speech of members. I mention Sanders and I'm accused of being a fan, despite a decade of evidence to the contrary. I demonstrate that Trump is such a tool of the swamp that he got even more publicity from the owned media than Sanders did, and you jump to distract people from that interesting fact by trying to say if I mention the blithering old socialist fool, I must be trolling for him two years late and a bunch of dollars short. Is that really the best you can do?

    That's your whole schtick, isn't it? That's your one-trick-pony spiel. We can't have allies because they'll scare us away. Chase everyone who might align with us--even if only in national elections--because if we don't make them run away, we'll run away.

    First, this forum was full of unlikely allies before you got here, when it was busy as Grand Central. Second, nobody with a lick of sense cares how someone votes in a local election unless they're neighbors. People in California can vote for small government national candidates--and yes, we had them doing it--in simple recognition that the federal government is big, corrupt and scary. And why would you care? You don't live in California. You look at it and screech about it a lot, and pretend like what they got is literally contagious--like freedom is so horrible one whiff of socialism will convert liberty lovers. But what happens there has no effect on you unless Boxer or Feinstein does it, and we had quite a few of them voting for Ron Paul. So, clearly, they can recognize that what they can get away with locally will not be safe and manageable federally.

    The bottom line is, you work at driving them away, then use this as an excuse. But the fact is, there were thousands of them around here, and they didn't drive anyone away. You sweep in here two years ago and start choosing who among the formerly welcome has to go to make the forum safe for certain people, but the forum had a truce in place--uneasy at times, but functional--and you and your deranged Trumpcucks are the ones who shattered that truce. This is a fact, and you're about to prove yet again you'd rather spin this fact or ignore it than admit it.

    And the worst part is, you love big government. You adore the stuff, so long as it's your favorite flavor. And you wonder how you've been spotted as an operative...

    In actively trying to chase away people who could vote with us in federal elections, you prove yourself the enemy of our friends. And in advocating for bigger federal government and more intrusive ID checks, you are a friend to our enemies. So why would we pay attention to your johnny-come-lately assessment of who our friends and enemies are?

    I have tried to be polite to you and I have appreciated your contributions to this forum, please stop attacking me just because you don't think I attack Trump enough to suit you, I have a right to my position as much as you do yours.

    After all, the wide base of support Ron Paul was attracting was dangerous to the swamp dwellers. Just a little more of a groundswell would have gotten the attention of the Bandwagon Voters, and that would have meant an anti authoritarian bipartisan populist movement reaching critical mass. The Powers that Be know an anti authoritarian populist movement poses no danger to them unless it's bipartisan. That's why they employ partisan spammers just like Swordsmythe.

    It won't take very long to get them home but it won't be overnight either but Iraq says they can't stay and they are coming home just like Trump said.
