^^^ The nexus of Trump circles with international organized crime has noticeably been getting talked and written about more since the inauguration.  It's gaining momentum.

Trump checked into Oval and now he can't leave.  The forensic criminals who inhabit it are realizing it's becoming their locked ward.  The years long aspect to this points to dealing with the global mafia state run by Semion Mogilevich and Vlad Putin.

I’ve been reading the Mogilevich narrative for a year but it’s really hard to go down that rabbit hole without a shitload of financial documents and mafia hierarchy big board. 

I see Mogilevich and Putin as one and the same. Thugs that run an international crime syndicate and Trump is just a pawn in their operation.

I’ve had this chart saved since November 2017 and assuming half this stuff checks out, it’s just too complicated for the average American to absorb or comprehend.

McCain's name will resonate moving forward in this treasonous WH affair, and how we deal with the advanced virulence of foreign incursion that McCain recognized.  In light of his memorial this weekend, major bombshells today seem less likely.

If there were bombs to drop, TeamTreason should want them to drop now while the McCain funeral provides media cover.

Moreover, John McCain would want justice being served to traitors simultaneously as the country honors his memory and dedication to the USA.

So Sam Patten is a Cambridge Analytica contractor with ties to Russian military intelligence agent Kilimnik and Paul Manafort.  He also worked on the Nigeria campaign that used Cambridge Analytica in conjunction with illegal computer hackers who stole the (now elected) president’s emails.  

So deliver a guy an election while also illegally obtaining kompromat on said beneficiary.  Sounds a lot like Comey reporting that the GOP was also hacked by Russia, but that, as opposed to Dems, none of their stolen goods have been released (yet).

Ex-Manafort Ally Agrees to Cooperate

August 31, 2018 at 1:07 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard

Sam Patten, a former associate of Paul Manafort who pleaded guilty to a lobbying violation, agreed to cooperate with federal prosecutors, giving them access to insights from a longtime international political operative whose Russian business partner has already been indicted in special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, Bloomberg reports.

------

Trump Inauguration Fund amassed almost $110M, eclipsing Obama's then record-smashing $53 million haul in 2009.

 

Recall this from late Spring:  

Special counsel eyeing Russians granted unusual access to Trump inauguration parties

"It’s incredibly unusual,” said Stephen Kerrigan, who planned the 2009 and 2013 Obama inaugural festivities and said every guest was scrutinized for foreign ties. “Particularly if they were going to be within arm’s reach of the President, they went through an intensive vetting process.”

Names on the guest lists of the Candlelight Dinner included Victor Vekselberg, the billionaire head of the global conglomerate Renova Group, who was later sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury “for operating in the energy sector of the Russian Federation economy,” and his American cousin Andrew Intrater. Late last year, Vekselberg was stopped at a New York airport by federal agents working for Special Counsel Robert Mueller and questioned, according to the New York Times. The Times also reported that Intrater was separately interviewed by the special counsel.

Vekselberg and Intrater were seated at the dinner next to Michael Cohen and his family, according to a source familiar with the arrangements. Intrater’s firm, Columbus Nova, later signed Cohen to a $1 million consulting contract. Emails to Renova Group went unanswered. A spokesperson for Intrater declined to comment when reached by ABC News.

Investigators for both the Mueller team and the congressional probes have also expressed interest in several of the other Russian guests who had no obvious place in Trump’s diplomatic orbit, three sources told ABC News.

Some had given money to past Republican candidates, including Leonard Blavatnik, a Ukrainian-born billionaire philanthropist who holds American and British citizenship. He appeared on guest lists for both the Candlelight Dinner and the Chairman’s events. His global company, Access Industries, which holds a majority stake in Amedia, Russia’s largest producer of television series, gave $1 million to the inaugural fund."

Is this the same inauguration fund that paid one of Melanie’s friends $25 million for refreshments and other bullshit that should come nowhere near costing $25 million?

How much was the 19.5% Roseneft deal worth, dollar wise?

I have a sneaking suspicion this is what this all boils down to.  This deal right here.

[triplehorn 2664]

The original rumored amount was a 19% Rosneft stock sale.  Then a gilded 0.5% was tacked on, for some reason, or for someone special.

Yeah,...what kind of money are we talking here? 

[Hugo Stiglitz 23367]

Okay I looked at some analysis 

 

The deal for 19.5 percent of Rosneft was priced at 10.2 billion euros — again, way more than would be required to buy off Trump. This means that the company is valued at something like 52.3 billion euros. A one percent stake is 523 million euros; half of that is 261 million euros, or about 277 million USD — a quarter of a billion dollars, give or take.

What if the discrepancy between the 19 percent reported by Steele and the 19.5 percent of the actual sale is the commission of the sale? In other words, what if that 261 million euros represented the bribe to Trump to lift the sanctions? Assuming, of course, that there was a quid pro quo of some kind.

Concealing the entire proceeds of the Rosneft deal is impossible, even for Putin, no matter how many shell companies in how many unscrupulous countries are involved. There’s simply too much cash for it to all disappear; it would take money laundering on a scale that would make even Manafort blush. But 261 million euros? On a sale worth 10.2 billion? That’s like worrying over a missing hubcap when the Bentley gets totaled.

 

[triplehorn 2664]

Who knows exactly what was under consideration for dividing up profits, commissions, etc.  But if that 0.5% had a T stamped on it, of the total estimated value of Rosneft in 2016 ( ~57B), 0.005 would be ~$295M.  The value of Rosneft stock would then be expected to shoot up significantly after Trump lifted sanctions.

We also have no idea how much debt Trump had with Deutsche Bank/Russia Mob.  

I’d think the .5% would go to pay that off first, if it exists.
