by Jordan Schachtel ·



Lanny Davis, the longtime Clinton confidant who is also the attorney for former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, is on the payroll of a pro-Moscow Ukrainian oligarch with direct ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

According to Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) records reviewed by Conservative Review, Davis is an active registered foreign agent for Ukrainian billionaire Dmytro Firtash. A review of his social media records shows that Davis has never tweeted about his Ukrainian client, seemingly preferring to advocate quietly for Firtash, who faces enormous legal issues in courtrooms across the world.

Firtash’s ties to Putin have been exposed in several investigate reports. Moreover, the Ukrainian’s deeply corrupt business practices have put him on the radar of U.S. authorities, who are currently demanding his extradition to Chicago to face bribery charges.

Firtash, like many oligarchs tied to Moscow, owes much of his financial success to the Putin regime. Over the course of his business career, Firtash has secured sweetheart deals with major Russian state-owned energy companies, which filled the Ukrainian’s pockets with billions of dollars. The investment into Firtash paid off big-time, from a geopolitical perspective. He played an integral role in securing victory in the 2010 Ukrainian presidential election for Russian puppet Viktor Yanukovych. Following a popular uprising in 2014, Yanukovych fled the country. He now lives in exile in Russia.

Lanny Davis has been the principle lobbyist for Mr. Firtash since at least June 2014, which, notably, is just a few months after Yanukovych was thrown out of office. During that time period, Davis was earning $60,000 per month from Firtash. That number was expected to be boosted to $80,000 per month, plus expenses (around one million dollars per year), when Davis re-registered as Firtash’s chief lobbyist in 2016. That contract remains active to this day.

To all the Trump can do no wrong people I would say he knew enough to have the hush payments made.  If you were out in the open about who you were and didn't think it would affect the election why would you pay off the whores? 

All the lying Ted stuff.  He has a closet full of lies.  How do you trust a person like that?

Oh, we aren't hiring a saint....blah, blah, blah.  We are hiring a pathological liar that we don't know what is in his closet of lies.

Almost everyone agrees that:

1) He slept with both Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.

2) It happened 13 years ago.

3) He paid them hush money to keep quiet during the campaign.

Nobody thinks Trump is a saint ( anyone who thinks that is hopelessly naive ).

The RELEVANT questions are these:

1) Did he violate campaign finance laws when he paid them hush money?

2) What do these have to do with Russia?

And I ask if it was known that we weren't expecting Trump to be a saint why did he need to pay hush money?  I will tell you.  Because he knew that he would loose voters.  To me it makes it even worse because things like these always make their way to the surface.  How many other secrets does he have?  How many scandals will we have to endure during his presidency.  Will he be another slick willy?  Sex at the White House?  Slick Willy, Sleezy Trump.

He knew so he paid off the whores.  That's the story.

Is the purpose of the Mueller investigation to prove that Trump Is an immoral rascal? Or is it to find Russian collusion?

I personally am not going to want more tax payer dollars to prove the former.

If all Mueller can do is tell us that he committed adultery, then it's time to wrap it up. He wasn't assigned to do that with our tax dollars.

As for the 2016 elections, we all had 4 choices:

Hillary
Trump
A third candidate
Stay home.

I did not vote for Trump out of any admiration for his personality, but for his stated policies. The alternative would have been worse.

But back to Mueller, why is he investigating Stormy Daniels? What does this have to do with Russia?

Hey, @corbe   Get back on the Texas thread and help me defeat @Frank Cannon instead of posting absolute nonsense here.

But, about the subject,  I saw Alan Dershowitz being interviewed on Fox this morning and he was pretty funny about Lanny.  One line I liked was, "It's okay to sing, but not to compose."

Apparently Lanny has done both all his life.  Pretty disgraceful that the purveyor of all this (CNN) has refused to take back their story even after Lanny admitted it was a lie.
Against stupidity, the Gods themselves contend in vain.

  Unfortunately, @Emjay I have a Dr.'s Backup server down and I have to drive over there to press F1 to continue for $75.00. He always gives me Ocktoberfest tickets w/ beer coupons (C of C guy), so somewhat obligated.

   Just tell Frank Putin has higher approval ratings in Texas than does Trump.  Cruz should invite The Russian Oligarch to campaign with him.

Just more corruption from the left. Is anyone shocked by this?

Anyone?

I didn't think so.
