White House Aide Dismisses Claims of Collusion Between Trump Jr., Russian Lawyer
https://sputniknews.com/politics/201707101055410972-reports-no-collusion-trump-russia/

Discussions between President Donald Trump's eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., and a Russian lawyer last year didn't involve presidential politics, White House aide Kellyanne Conway said in an interview on Monday.

"No information was gained, no action was taken, no follow-up whatsoever," Conway told Fox News, referring to the meeting.

Conway added that the mainstream media continues to spin its wheels in an attempt to find Russian collusion with the Trump campaign.

Talk about 'nothing burgers'! Trump Jr met a lawyer and - wait for it - she was RUSSIAN! They may or may not have discussed politics. The End. Now lets suggestively splatter that all over the media.

Come to think of it, I've got some friends who are German. We may or not have discussed politics. Does that mean I'm a nazi? :lol:

The one good thing about this ridiculousness is that I'm having a blast trolling CNN, Jen Psaki, the Guardian, etc on Twitter. :whistle: :cool:


More information is leaking out on Russian attorney Natalia Veselnitskaya.

Russian Lawyer Veselnitskaya Posted Picture on Facebook from inside John McCain’s Office (Photos - Tweets)
http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017/07/russian-lawyer-veselnitskaya-posted-picture-facebook-inside-john-mccains-office/

The Russian lawyer who met with Donald Trump Jr. in Trump Tower also spent quite a bit of time in Washington DC.

In December 2015 she posted a photo on Facebook from inside Senator John McCain’s office.

Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya posted a pic from inside McCain’s office in Dec 2015 and posted it on her Facebook page.

Natalia Veselnitskaya also posted several anti-Trump posts on Facebook.

Natalia Veselnitskaya posted an anti-Trump article on her Facebook page 4 days before her meeting with Donald Trump Jr.

Veselnitskaya’s facebook page shows she was in New York City on the 10th and in Washington DC on June 14, 2016.

Veselnitskaya told NBC News on Monday she was not with the Kremlin as was reported by The New York Times.

She confirmed her meeting with Donald Trump Jr. was about Russian adoptions in the US.

The law firm where Veselnitskaya is listed as managing partner, Kamerton Consulting, is based in a Moscow suburb and does not even have a website.

A staff member at Kamerton told The Associated Press Veselnitskaya was unavailable for comment on Monday.

Her office in Moscow may be a shell. There is no working phone, email or website.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday that the Kremlin is unaware of a meeting between Trump’s senior staff and Veselnitskaya and “does not know who that is.”

Peskov said, “No, we don’t know who that is and obviously we can’t monitor all meetings Russian lawyers hold both in Russia and abroad.”

Now this…
Natalia Veselnitskaya was sitting with Obama’s Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul during a Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, 8 days after cold-contacting Trump Jr. in Trump Tower.

Here is another shot from the June 14, 2016 Congressional hearing on Russia and the Ukraine.


Following Kremlin denials that the 'Russian lawyer' that met with Trump Jr. was 'Kremlin-related', Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Wednesday it was preposterous that U.S. President Donald Trump's eldest son was blamed for the meeting.

"This Is Wild" Lavrov Mocks US Media Mania Over 'Russian Lawyer' & Trump Jr.
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-07-12/wild-lavrov-mocks-us-media-mania-over-russian-lawyer-trump-jr

Hitting back against accusations of Russian meddling in the 206 U.S. elections, Reuters reports that Lavrov asked to be shown "at least one fact" proving Moscow tried to interfere with the democratic process.

"I learned with surprise that a Russian lawyer, a woman, is being blamed and Trump's son is being blamed for meeting. For me, this is wild," Lavrov told a joint news conference with his Belgian counterpart in Brussels.

"Because when any person speaks to a lawyer, what problem or threat could there be? I didn't know about this, I learned about it from television."

The emails released by Donald Trump Jr. on Tuesday are seen by Trump critics as the most concrete evidence yet that Trump campaign officials welcomed Russian help to win the election. But Lavrov dismissed the media interest in the email release, saying:

"It's amazing that serious people are making a mountain out of a molehill."

Still when all you have is a hammer of division and blame, every headline looks like a nail...


Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) formally introduced an article of impeachment against President Trump on Wednesday that accuses the president of obstructing justice during the federal investigation of Russia’s 2016 election interference.

House Democrat files article of impeachment against Trump (Video)
http://thehill.com/homenews/house/341677-house-dem-files-article-of-impeachment-against-trump

This is the first time a lawmaker has offered an impeachment article against Trump, and it comes as Democrats have debated whether it is politically wise to press the case for impeachment at this time.

A majority vote in the House, currently controlled by Republicans, is required to impeach a president. Republicans have a 46-seat advantage. White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders slammed the move.

“I think that is utterly and completely ridiculous and a political game at its worst,” she told reporters Wednesday at an off-camera briefing.

In filing his impeachment article, Sherman argues that Trump’s abrupt firing of James Comey as FBI director in May amounts to obstructing justice and "high crimes and misdemeanors" amid the probes of whether Trump's campaign colluded with the Russian government to swing the election.


In the aftermath of BuzzFeed's release of the now-infamous "Trump Dossier," much time has been spent speculating exactly who paid for dirt on the Trump administration and who had the opportunity to take a sneak peak at the findings before the report was passed off to the FBI. Media reports have suggested that the "opposition research" was ordered by one of Trump's presidential primary competitors though that detail has never been officially confirmed.

British Lawsuit Raises New Questions Over John McCain's Involvement With The "Trump Dossier"
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-07-11/john-mccain-faces-questions-british-lawsuit-over-involvement-trump-dossier

That said, a name that continues to pop up every time the dossier is mentioned is that of Senator John McCain (R-AZ), a rather outspoken and unapologetic critic of President Trump.

As a recap, for those who have manged to avoid the head trauma of this particular narrative, the dossier in question was compiled by former British spy Christopher Steele and his London firm, Orbis Business Intelligence Ltd. The intelligence produced amounted to a collection of uncorroborated reports gathered by Steele primarily from intelligence contacts he developed while working undercover in Moscow. Provocative details relating to Trump, hookers and 'golden showers' in Russian hotel rooms proved explosive when they were published by BuzzFeed on January 10th, but were quickly debunked as nothing more than 'fake news.'

But now, courtesy of a lawsuit filed by Aleksej Gubarev in the U.K., additional details are emerging which raise new questions about McCain's links to the dossier. As McClatchy notes today, according to a new court document filed in the British lawsuit, the counsel for Chris Steele repeatedly points to Senator McCain and a former State Department official as two of just a handful of people known to have had copies of the full document before it circulated among journalists and was ultimately published by BuzzFeed.

It's unclear exactly when McCain got his first look at the dossier and his staff has refused to provide additional comment beyond a statement released back in January. As a result, all we know for sure is that Steele finished his opposition research in October and Comey testified that he didn't get a copy of the dossier until January 6th. Precisely who saw what and when during that interim period still remains a mystery.

Two defamation lawsuits — one in the United States and a second in the U.K. — have been brought by lawyers for Aleksej Gubarev, a Cyprus-based Internet entrepreneur whom Steele’s Russian sources accused of cyber spying against the Democratic Party leadership.

Of course, with discovery still ongoing in both lawsuits, we suspect additional details on this narrative will continue to leak out slowly over time despite the best efforts of the mainstream media to conceal the fact that opposition research was being gathered, not just on the Clinton campaign, but on Trump as well.

Copyright Infringement Over Children’s Book

At least, that’s the accusation being made by a writer who is suing former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton for $150,000.

Christopher Kimberley filed a federal lawsuit in New York claiming Clinton and publisher Penguin Random House stole his book idea when they produced the children’s book ‘She Persisted.’

Clinton derived the idea for her book from the temper tantrum thrown on the Senate floor by Democrat Elizabeth Warren, which produced this quote from Mitch McConnell …

She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted.

Liberals turned the last three words into a feminist rallying cry, and Clinton took the cue for her book.

Problem is, according to Kimberley, that the series of quotes used in the book are similar to a book he wrote in 2013.

Via the Daily Mail:

An author is suing Chelsea Clinton for ‘ripping off’ his idea to write her feminist children’s book ‘She Persisted’.

Christopher Janes Kimberley, 56, filed a federal lawsuit in New York against Chelsea Clinton, 37, and Penguin Random House accusing the former first daughter of copyright infringement.

Court documents obtained by DailyMail.com reveal Kimberley is seeking up to $150,000 in damages and any profits from the New York Times best seller.

Kimberley said he wrote an all-ages, three-volume illustrated children’s book ‘A Heart is the Part That Makes Boys And Girls Smart’ in 2013.

Kimberely claims that his book featured three quotes that were also featured in the book ‘She Persisted.’

“I did months of painstaking research on my book,” the writer told the New York Post. “Her version looks like a ninth-grade homework assignment.”

“I am in disbelief,” he said.

Um … they’re quotes. You’ll likely find them in numerous other books and/or collections.

Nevertheless, he insisted that the president of Penguin Young Readers US, Jennifer Loja, must have received the submission in 2013, read it, and then gave the idea to Clinton.
 
I think, Julian Assange brings out some good points to ponder in this article? The media has been so saturated with Trump and his Tweets and "the Russian's" did this or that, along with reports of Secretary of State Tillerson's activities, I almost completely forgot we have a Vice President named Mike Pence?

So far, everyone close to Trump, especially his immediate Family, has been accused of one thing or another. Yet, no one has attacked Pence, in any way, no scandals, nothing? I find that - interesting?

Ever notice how Vice President Mike Pence is never implicated in any of President Donald Trump's scandals and always comes out looking pure as the driven snow?

Is Mike Pence Leaking to Take Down Trump?
http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=57018

With the leaking of Don Jr.'s emails to the New York Times, which they sourced to "three advisers to the White House briefed on the meeting and two others with knowledge of it," people are finally starting to ask questions about whether or not this establishment Republican cold warrior is leaking to take Trump down so he can become President.

Julian Assange tweeted this article from Business Insider out on Tuesday:

Why does it look like someone close to White House is trying to destroy @DonaldJTrumpJr? http://uk.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-jr-email-chain-white-house-2017-7 …

From Business Insider, "Why does it look like somebody close to the White House is trying to destroy Don Jr.?":

The call is coming from inside the White House -- or near it, at least.

A remarkable fact about The New York Times' Sunday report of the meeting of a Kremlin-linked lawyer and Donald Trump Jr., Jared Kushner, and Paul Manafort is that the story was sourced to "three advisers to the White House briefed on the meeting and two others with knowledge of it."

Subsequently, The Times obtained Trump Jr.'s email exchange with the publicist Rob Goldstone to set up the meeting. That is the exchange during which Goldstone promised damaging information about Hillary Clinton obtained as "part of Russia and its government's support for Mr. Trump." And Trump Jr. responded not by saying, "What Russian effort to support my dad?" but rather, "I love it especially later in the summer."

The Times cannot have gotten the emails from Goldstone. After all, The Times knew that Trump Jr. had "forwarded the entire email chain to Mr. Kushner's company work email, and to Mr. Manafort at his Trump campaign email." Goldstone wasn't included on that forward, as we can see from Trump Jr.'s publication of the email chain on Twitter after The Times called him for comment about it.

So five people in or around the White House have been spilling highly incriminating information to The Times about Trump Jr.'s meeting, and an email chain that only Kushner, Manafort, and Trump Jr. possessed also made its way to The Times somehow.

He notes this latest scandal came after Trump's over 2 hour meeting with President Putin.

Pence is an establishment cold warrior who hates Russia and does not want to see relations normalized.

A theory I saw some people floating on Sunday was that Kushner was putting information out to throw his brother-in-law under the bus, getting everyone to think of this as "Don Jr.'s meeting" rather than "Jared's meeting." And that was maybe plausible before we learned that Trump Jr. had been told the meeting would be part of a Russian operation to support his father, and before we learned that Trump Jr. forwarded Kushner and Manafort an email saying as much.

Disclosure of this email exchange is a disaster for both Kushner and Trump Jr. It's hard to imagine why Kushner would have seen any advantage in getting it out.

Of course, the other person who initially had the email chain was Manafort. I don't know what Manafort's interests are right now. Manafort doesn't work at the White House, but given this Politico story from May, it does seem that one might be able to describe him as an adviser to the White House.

It also occurs to me that when candidate Trump was itching to put Chris Christie on the ticket and his offspring were pushing him, for some reason, toward Newt Gingrich, Manafort was the prime mover behind the Mike Pence choice. One report alleged Manafort faked a mechanical problem with Trump's plane so Trump would be forced to spend a night in Indianapolis, where Pence could pitch himself for the job.

The person in the West Wing most plausibly a winner in this episode is Pence, who would stand to become president if Trump were forced from office. Pence, who has an unusually vigorous fund-raising operation for a first-term vice president, has been putting out ice-cold statements about this story.

"The vice president is working hard to advance the president's agenda every day," Marc Lotter, his spokesman, said on Tuesday. "He was not aware of the meeting. He is also not focused on stories about the campaign -- especially those that pertain to the time before he joined the campaign."
Pence appears to have made similar leaks back in May while the Flynn scandal was ongoing:

From NBC, "VP Mike Pence Was Never Informed About Flynn: Source":

Pence has been kept in the dark about former National Security Adviser Mike Flynn's alleged wrongdoing, according to a source close to the administration, who cited a potential "pattern" of not informing the vice president and calling it “malpractice or intentional, and either are unacceptable."

[...]"You never saw him promoting Flynn," the source asserted.
From CNN, "Pence is a loyal soldier, but news cycle is wearing on him":

"We certainly knew we needed to be prepared for the unconventional," but, the source adds, "not to this extent."

[...]On whether Pence would make any explanatory statements about the meeting between Trump and Russian Ambassador to the US Sergey Kislyak: "I certainly hope not."

Axios reported Wednesday: "Most elected Republicans in town would privately prefer a President Pence. When push comes to shove, they may not protect Trump. Indeed, their natural impulse will be to throw him overboard."

I guess, that answers my questions on Pence?

Yes, exactly, osit. And maybe it's like LBJ was to Jack, who seemed to wait in a separate stall in case a plan B was required of whatever nature, and sadly that nature became true. Recently, Pence seems to be mustering great support behind the headlines, behind the President's back with the usual suspects, although the President would know full well. One could imagine that with Pence behind the State wheel, plan A would be right back on track, hence the WaPo/NYT way of undermining Trump in that article, osit?

Can't remember how Pence slipped in on the ticket with Trump; did he have a choice, was it really with Trump's full support? With LBJ, Jack had no choice as the behind the scenes networks maneuvered LBJ into place despite the loud opposition. It was a pretty overt move if remembered. Other presidents were probably bird-dogged by running mates they did not desire, too. Whatever the case, the PTB seem to like to keep a pinch hitter in the game just in case, and Pence seems a favorable one.
 
It would be nice if MSM reported this but that's wishful thinking for sure. At least The Washington Times and Sean Hannity noticed.

Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfire

The real collusion story: Ukraine conspired with Hillary Clinton to meddle in US elections

SOTT article said:
Ukraine's US election meddling to help Hillary Clinton is now seeing the light of day.

On January 11, 2017, Politico ran a post entitled "Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfire", which detailed how Kiev officials were scrambling to make amends with president-elect Trump after quietly working to boost Clinton.

Via Politico...
Donald Trump wasn't the only presidential candidate whose campaign was boosted by officials of a former Soviet bloc country.

Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election. And they helped Clinton's allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisers, a Politico investigation found.
The Ukrainian hate for Trump (and alignment with Clinton) steamed out of the country's president, Viktor Yanukovych, working with Paul Manafort before being overthrown by the US, EU and neo-nazi groups.
Manafort's work for Yanukovych caught the attention of a veteran Democratic operative named Alexandra Chalupa, who had worked in the White House Office of Public Liaison during the Clinton administration. Chalupa went on to work as a staffer, then as a consultant, for Democratic National Committee. The DNC paid her $412,000 from 2004 to June 2016, according to Federal Election Commission records, though she also was paid by other clients during that time, including Democratic campaigns and the DNC's arm for engaging expatriate Democrats around the world.

A daughter of Ukrainian immigrants who maintains strong ties to the Ukrainian-American diaspora and the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, Chalupa, a lawyer by training, in 2014 was doing pro bono work for another client interested in the Ukrainian crisis and began researching Manafort's role in Yanukovych's rise, as well as his ties to the pro-Russian oligarchs who funded Yanukovych's political party.

In an interview this month, Chalupa told Politico she had developed a network of sources in Kiev and Washington, including investigative journalists, government officials and private intelligence operatives. While her consulting work at the DNC this past election cycle centered on mobilizing ethnic communities — including Ukrainian-Americans — she said that, when Trump's unlikely presidential campaign began surging in late 2015, she began focusing more on the research, and expanded it to include Trump's ties to Russia, as well.

She occasionally shared her findings with officials from the DNC and Clinton's campaign, Chalupa said.

She said she shared her concern with Ukraine's ambassador to the U.S., Valeriy Chaly, and one of his top aides, Oksana Shulyar, during a March 2016 meeting at the Ukrainian Embassy. According to someone briefed on the meeting, Chaly said that Manafort was very much on his radar, but that he wasn't particularly concerned about the operative's ties to Trump since he didn't believe Trump stood much of a chance of winning the GOP nomination, let alone the presidency.

That was not an uncommon view at the time, and, perhaps as a result, Trump's ties to Russia — let alone Manafort's — were not the subject of much attention.

That all started to change just four days after Chalupa's meeting at the embassy, when it was reported that Trump had in fact hired Manafort, suggesting that Chalupa may have been on to something. She quickly found herself in high demand. The day after Manafort's hiring was revealed, she briefed the DNC's communications staff on Manafort, Trump and their ties to Russia, according to an operative familiar with the situation.

A former DNC staffer described the exchange as an "informal conversation," saying "'briefing' makes it sound way too formal," and adding, "We were not directing or driving her work on this." Yet, the former DNC staffer and the operative familiar with the situation agreed that with the DNC's encouragement, Chalupa asked embassy staff to try to arrange an interview in which Poroshenko might discuss Manafort's ties to Yanukovych.

While the embassy declined that request, officials there became "helpful" in Chalupa's efforts, she said, explaining that she traded information and leads with them. "If I asked a question, they would provide guidance, or if there was someone I needed to follow up with." But she stressed, "There were no documents given, nothing like that."

Chalupa said the embassy also worked directly with reporters researching Trump, Manafort and Russia to point them in the right directions. She added, though, "they were being very protective and not speaking to the press as much as they should have. I think they were being careful because their situation was that they had to be very, very careful because they could not pick sides. It's a political issue, and they didn't want to get involved politically because they couldn't."
Here is Chalupa giving an interview with what was the state run Ukraine Today TV channel (officially shut down in 2016)...

The Washington Times reports that the White House stated that the real collusion with a foreign power during the campaign was between the Democratic National Committee and Ukraine.
"If you are looking for an example of a campaign coordinating with foreign country or a foreign source, look no further than the DNC which actually coordinated opposition research with the Ukrainian embassy," said White House principal deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders.

Fending off questions about Donald Trump Jr. meeting with a Russian lawyer during the presidential race, Mrs. Sanders noted at the daily White House press briefing that the DNC's work with Ukraine was well documented.

DNC operatives worked with officials at the Ukraine embassy in an effort to spread dirt on Donald Trump during the campaign, according to reports.

"This is not an accusation. That is an on-the-record action that they took," Mrs. Sanders said.
"No one in this room to my knowledge really had a problem with that," she said.
Fox News's Sean Hannity exposed the Ukrainian collusion with Hillary Clinton prior to interviewing Donald Trump Jr.

Hannity likewise closes his interview with Donald Trump Jr., by once again citing Ukraine's collusion with the Hillary Clinton campaign...

Finally, the hypocrisy of the Trump Jr., narrative being played out by the Hillary Clinton liberal left mediqa is not only found in the fact that Ukraine did side with "her" to sabotage Trump during the US elections, but that Ukraine's US election meddling was not the only time Hillary colluded with shady sources to damage Trump and sabotage US democracy...

Zerohedge notes that ironically that infamous "Trump Dossier," which appeared back in January (think Golden Showers), was compiled by ex-British intelligence official Chris Steele and was allegedly sourced from several Russia-based contacts, was shared with various members of the Hillary Clinton campaign yet not a single Senate or House committee has launched an investigation to figure out whether Hillary 'colluded' with British and/or Russian intelligence to undermine the campaign of Donald Trump...very odd. We're sure it's just a simple oversight.
 
Is Paul Manafort, President Trump’s former campaign manager orchestrating the opposition for Trump's eventual down fall and removal from Office?
Manafort was behind the scheme to get Mike Pence selected for VP. (One report alleged Manafort faked a mechanical problem with Trump's plane so Trump would be forced to spend a night in Indianapolis, where Pence could pitch himself for the job.)

On Sunday, The New York Times followed up with a report that stated Trump Jr. “was promised damaging information about Hillary Clinton before agreeing to meet with the Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer during the 2016 campaign.”

The Trump Jr. Affair: Who Is Russian Lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya?
http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-trump-jr-affair-who-is-russian-lawyer-natalia-veselnitskaya/5599203

Those in attendance of the meeting besides Trump Jr. included — Paul Manafort, President Trump’s campaign manager at the time, and Jared Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and current advisor according to The Times.

The person who set up the meeting was Rob Goldstone, a music publicist and personal friend of Trump Jr.

Goldstone has been active with the Miss Universe pageant once owned by Trump and works as a manager for Emin Agalarov, a Russian pop star.

Members of the president’s legal team have identified Goldstone as the acquaintance “who sought the meeting is associated with Fusion GPS,” according to a report by Circa News.

Viewing Vaselnitskaya’s Instagram and Facebook it becomes apparent she is heavily anti-Trump and anti-Putin, so why would she claim she has evidence to help Trump from the Kremlin? It becomes quickly obvious that something is not right and does not add up.

Veselnitskaya even posted an anti-Trump article on her Facebook page four days prior to her meeting with Donald Trump Jr. on June 9th. So was she a plant to sell the “Russia hacked the election” narrative?

Full archive of Veselnitskaya’s Facebook can be seen here.

The article she posted was entitled “NY Attorney General: Trump University Is a Straight Up Fraud Case (Video)” regarding the investigation into Trump University for fraud.

Here’s where things get weird and what the mainstream media is refusing to talk about. Not only is she adamantly anti-Trump but she is coincidentally connected to Fusion GPS – the same firm that former MI6 Christopher Steele was employed by to collect information on then-candidate Donald Trump.

According to Veselnitskaya’s affidavit filed in New York in January 2016, she managed to get “special permission” to enter the United States after having been denied a visa. (Comment - Bill Clinton's meeting with Loretta Lynch on the airport tarmac?)

Consulting, defended Denis Katsyv, representing his company Prevezon Holdings. The actual date of the hearing in the case U.S. v. Prevezon Holdings was the exact same date as the meeting in Trump Tower — June 9th 2016.

Prevezon Holdings is a beneficiary of Fusion GPS, reported Circa News.

Katsyv is the son of a vice president of state-owned Russian Railways who was charged with money laundering in the United States over a case tied to an alleged massive Russian tax fraud scheme. That case was settled in New York in May for $6 million dollars.

Veselnitskaya has for several years been leading a campaign to have the Magnitsky Act overturned by the U.S. government – an Act that was established after Sergei Magnitsky a lawyer with investment advisory Hermitage Capital died in prison. Magnitsky uncovered the alleged $230 million dollar Russian tax fraud scheme.

The Act was put into U.S. law to target those Russians who may have been responsible for his death.

As part of her effort she allegedly hired GPS Fusion. A complaint filed last year by Senator Chuck Grassley claimed that Fusion GPS headed a pro-Russia campaign to kill the Magnitsky Act.

Fusion has denied claims that it facilitated the meeting between Veselnitskaya and Trump Jr. despite having ties to the Russian lawyer and employing someone for opposition research within the same time frame of the meeting.

“Fusion GPS learned about this meeting from news reports and had no prior knowledge of it. Any claim that Fusion GPS arranged or facilitated this meeting in any way is false,” Fusion GPS said.

Veselnitskaya also denied claims that she spoke about any matters regarding the presidential campaign at the meeting. “Nothing at all about the presidential campaign [was discussed at the meeting. I have] never acted on behalf of the Russian government never discussed any of these matters with any representative of the Russian government.” Veselnitskaya told The New York Times.

Veselnitskaya told NBC News on Monday she was not with the Kremlin as was reported by The New York Times.

Kamerton Consulting, is based in a Moscow suburb and does not even have a website, which begs the question is it a shell company?

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, said Monday that the Kremlin is unaware of a meeting between Trump’s senior staff and Veselnitskaya and “does not know who that is.”

“No, we don’t know who that is and obviously we can’t monitor all meetings Russian lawyers hold both in Russia and abroad,” Dmitry Peskov said.

It’s has also been reported that Veselnitskaya was seen sitting next to Obama’s Ambassador to Russia, Michael McFaul, during a Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Russia and the Ukraine that took place on June 14, 2016, 8 days after meeting Trump Jr.

She also helped set up an event at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. where pro-Russian supporters showed a movie that challenged the Magnitsky Act.

Then there is the fact that Obama’s Justice Department at the behest of Loretta Lynch allowed Veselnitskaya into the U.S. right before the meeting at Trump Tower.

The question on everyone’s mind now is, Who is Natalia Veselnitskaya and why was she seated at a committee hearing on Russia and the Ukraine? Only time will bring more answers to who this woman really is.


CyberBerkut hackers believe that the Clinton Foundation's donor Victor Pinchuk, a son-in-law of former Ukrainian President Kuchma, could have been behind the money laundering scheme involving IMF funds intended for Ukraine. The hackers alleged that these funds were then redistributed to the Clinton charity through offshores.

While the American mainstream media is struggling to find Russian "traces" in the US 2016 presidential campaign, the story of the Ukrainian interference in the election remains largely neglected.

During his testimony at the Senate Confirmation Hearing on Russia future FBI Director Christopher Wray said that he would be interested in looking into
Kiev's alleged meddling in the electoral process in the United States.

https://sputniknews.com/politics/201707131055497938-us-ukraine-meddling-election/

According to the report, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko signed a $50,000-a-month contract with a Republican lobbying firm to assist in setting up meetings with government officials in an effort to "strengthen the US-Ukrainian relations."

"Upon closer inspection, there is bad news for Kiev. Their actions and their statements openly indicated that the Ukrainian government supported Hillary Clinton during the US electoral campaign. This is an accomplished fact, not some speculations. Taking this fact into account, this is really bad news for Kiev," Zudin said.

During the visit to Kiev] Tillerson gave a signal to Poroshenko that the White House is not happy with the Ukrainian government," Ishchenko wrote.

According to the expert, the Trump administration has been reducing its assistance programs for Ukraine and tries to avoid discussions with Ukrainian policymakers.

June 20, 2017 - Amid speculation that Trump would refuse to meet the Ukrainian leader, Poroshenko had what the White House described as a "drop-in" with the US president.

"We've had some very, very good discussions," Trump said as the pair sat side-by-side in the Oval Office.


The White House is considering the possibility of returning Russian diplomatic property in the United States to Russia to give a chance to cooperation between Moscow and Washington, according to Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to US President Donald Trump.

New US sanctions will be timed to tank the ruble before Russian elections
http://www.fort-russ.com/2017/07/new-us-sanctions-will-be-timed-to-tank.html

Valentin Katasonov, Russian economist, Tsargrad TV:

Our monetary authorities are doing everything possible to ensure that gang of international speculators [American hedge funds] can enter. Because there are no restrictions on cross-border capital flows. And most importantly, not only to come in, but also to exit. And what we are now witnessing is just the beginning of a process of packing suitcases and departure of these investors. But we know that this sword of Damocles of American law is hanging over Russia, which will toughen economic sanctions, practically stripping Russia of any credit. And therefore, until this draconian law is enacted, in my estimation, it can happen somewhere in December, they have this time to pack up the capital and leave.

Speculators is a pack of wild dogs, someone collects them in a pack, and directs them. The dog wants to bite off a piece, it acts on instincts and reflexes. But whoever collects these dogs in a pack, has far more sinister goals. I think the goal is the collapse of the ruble, ahead of the upcoming presidential elections. Don't want to go into politics, but somehow it all syncs. I don't rule out that they will specifically time the law on new sanctions...

According to Valentin Katasonov, the new sanctions bill is hung up in Washington to give time to foreign investors to pack up and will be timed to exert maximum damage for the upcoming Russian elections.

Unfortunately, Russian Central bank established as a tool of foreign colonial control in the 1990's has failed to defend the ruble and the Russian economy and has demonstrated that it serves the interests of the global dollar pyramid rather than the Russian people. While showing encouraging successes in foreign policy, Putin has struggled to free the Russian financial system from the stranglehold of foreign capital. While this key problem is a subject of much discussion among the Russian expert community (the patriots vs. the Western disciples), the disparity between Putin's action on the international arena and dealing with the liberal fifth column experts at home is a testament to the tight grip of Western bankers on Russian economy.

But Putin still has some tricks up his sleeve:

China Development Bank and the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), a sovereign wealth fund which invests in infrastructure, energy, industry and other sectors, said they would create a joint investment fund worth 68 billion yuan ($10 billion). The money will finance infrastructure and development projects.

VEB, Russia's state development bank, also signed a deal with China Development Bank for a new 15-year loan worth 50 billion rubles ($850 million) to set up a new innovation fund.

RDIF and VEB are subject to U.S. sanctions imposed on Russia over its involvement in the Ukraine conflict. They are barred from raising long term finance in the U.S. VEB is also under sanctions by the European Union.

"Because they are subject to U.S. and EU sanctions, they are cut off from Western capital," said Sean Kane, counsel at Hughes Hubbard and a former deputy Assistant Director for Policy in the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) in the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

"That was the purpose of these sanctions, to cut these entities off long term financing in the U.S. and EU," added Kane, who was involved in the development and implementation of the Russia sanctions program.

Russia has been keen to attract more investment from China ever since sanctions were imposed in 2014, and oil prices collapsed.

The new investment funds will be set up in Russia and China's own currencies, rather than dollars or euros, putting them way beyond the reach of the U.S. and European sanctions regimes.

Western sanctions against Russia do not apply to China.

RDIF said existing sanctions should not prevent U.S. investors from co-investing or creating funds with RDIF similar to the one established with CDB.

"Russia certainly has vested interest in publicizing these deals. It is very important to President Putin to show that Russia is not cut off the world," Kane said.

"It's also a way to reinforce the message that these sanctions are not working -- because Russia can get financing elsewhere."

Putin's life is in danger - Belgian political scientist [Video]
http://www.fort-russ.com/2017/07/putins-life-is-in-danger-belgian.html

The West destroys those national leaders whom it is threatened by, so the life of Russian President Vladimir Putin id at risk. This was stated during a round table discussion "The role of sanctions in relations between Russia and the European Union", held in Sevastopol, by the Belgian diplomat, director of the Geopolitical Research Center "Euro-Rus", Chris Roman.

"If someone offends Wall Street, NATO attacks everywhere in Libya, Iraq and Venezuela. If the leader is threatening Wall Street, he dies. Therefore, I believe that Putin's life is in danger, because he threatens so many interests in the West ", - said Roman.

He believes that the US' main goal is a new war in Europe.

"They organized the Second World War. Without America, Hitler would have gone bankrupt and would not attack Russia. Without America today, Ukraine would have been bankrupt and would not be able to do anything in the Donbass. Mafia from Wall Street wants a war with Russia. For America, the war - this is a business, because it is insulated by two oceans from wars' repercussions ", - said Roman.

On sanctions, he said:

"Only half the amount of Belgian pears today are exported to Russia. Now our farmers almost crying, because they are bankrupt. The European Parliament will not lift sanctions, because the EU is the economic arm of NATO, and NATO - a military arm of Wall Street. I do not believe that the political parties can make a difference. We need public diplomacy. It must be said: the European Parliament must go where the sun does not shine." said Roman.

Several prominent professors of psychiatry affiliated with prestigious American universities have written an open letter to the US Congress asking for the “lawful” removal of US President Donald Trump.

Top US Psychiatrists Call on Congress to Remove Mentally ‘Unraveling’ Trump
https://sputniknews.com/art_living/201707161055582346-trump-aint-right-say-profs/

In an open letter to Congress published by the Huffington Post, the five eminent professors observe that the current US president is unfit to serve, based on what they state is Trump's mental "unraveling," the Washington Times reported.

The letter from the psychiatry notables is uncharacteristically blunt.

"The power of the presidency has accentuated Mr. Trump's failings with devastating effects," the letter states, adding that the president's "psychological isolation — including his tenuous relationship to reality — has led to the dangerous isolation of the United States from the rest of the world."

"Our Constitution has provisions for removing any president who is unable to discharge the duties of office," the professors observe.

"For the sake of our country and the world, we urge our elected representatives to summon their courage so that lawful steps can be taken to end the Trump presidency."

The letter is signed by Judith L. Herman of Harvard, Robert Jay Lifton of Columbia University, Bandy X. Lee of Yale, and Dee Mosbacher and Nanette Gartrell of the University of California, according to the the Washington Times.

The letter follows a November 2016 warning from Herman, Mosbacher and Gartrell to former President Barack Obama, in which they expressed a "grave concern" over Trump's mental acuity, pointing to what they diagnosed as a severe case of Narcissistic Personality Disorder.


The voting in the US Senate on repeal of the Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare, and its replacement with a revised healthcare plan, proposed by the Republicans, was postponed as party’s senator John McCain will not be able to attend the session due to the surgery, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Sunday.

US Senate Postpones Vote on Repeal of Obamacare Due to McCain’s Surgery
https://sputniknews.com/us/201707161055583076-mccain-surgery-obamacare-vote-postponed/

On Saturday, McCain’s press service said that the senator underwent a procedure to remove a blood clot from above his eye on Friday and will be recovering from the surgery next week. McCain criticized his party’s revised healthcare plan and urged to make several changes to the draft earlier in the week.

“While John [McCain] is recovering, the Senate will continue our work on legislative items and nominations, and will defer consideration of the Better Care Act,” McConnell wrote on Twitter.

The majority leader wished McCain to have a “speedy” recovery and said that he is sure that the senator will get back to work very soon.

Mike Pence is the loyal wingman, the ever-discreet figure who rises above the Washington fray. But as the Russia scandal encroaches ever further on Donald Trump’s White House, the vice president is also walking a political tightrope.

The 58-year-old former governor of Indiana is currently the man closest to the US presidency — either as Trump’s immediate successor should his term end prematurely, or as his heir apparent in 2020 or 2024 elections, depending on how many terms Trump serves.

As the troubles of his boss grow deeper by the day, ensnared in a widening investigation into his campaign ties to Russia, experts say the 48th US vice president remains compelled to stand by his man — at least for now.

“Pence is in a very difficult position,” Joel Goldstein, an expert on the vice presidency at Saint Louis University School of Law, told AFP.

“A vice president is expected to be loyal to the president, but President Trump imposes a heavy burden on his subordinates by saying and doing things that often are hard to defend.”

The two men could hardly be more different: where Trump likes to blur ideological lines, Pence is a committed Christian conservative, as stiff and disciplined as his boss is exuberant and unpredictable.

While Trump tweets about a high-stakes health care bill, it is Pence who has been shuttling between the White House and Congress in a behind-the-scenes effort to rescue the imperiled legislation.

In Trump’s turbulent Washington, Pence is seen as the administration’s steadying force, the “ax behind the glass you’re supposed to break in case of emergency,” as The Daily Beast news website put it recently.

The protests of women's advocacy group Ultraviolet against US President Donald Trump take place on Sunday as the president attends the US Women’s Open tennis tournament, media reported.

Protests Take Place at US Open on Sunday as Trump Attends Tournament
https://sputniknews.com/us/201707171055597185-us-open-trump-protests/

A dozen of protesters, mainly women, gathered at the Trump National Golf Course in US State of New Jersey, where the tournament is being held. The demonstrators are wearing anti-Trump t-shirts, the Hill newspaper reported.

Trump visited the US Open on Sunday for a third time in a week as he was in attendance both on Saturday and Friday and even thanked his supporters for “out-numbering” the protesters.

“I am at the @USGA #USWomensOpen. An amateur player is co-leading for the first time in many decades — very exciting!,” the US president wrote on Twitter on Monday.


Protesters have rallied in the streets of cities across the United States to demand the impeachment of President Donald Trump, and at least two people have been arrested.

Anti-Trump protests held across US, 2 arrested in Hollywood

The protests organized by RefuseFascism were held on Saturday in at least 20 locations, including Atlanta, New York City, New Jersey, Chicago, Phoenix, Washington, Boston, Portland and Los Angeles.

RefuseFascism, a vocal opponent of the Trump administration, is calling for an end to the Trump-Pence administration.


In New York City, the activists first gathered outside the Trump Tower and then marched toward Times Square and 9th Avenue, chanting slogans such as “No Trump, No KKK, No fascist USA.”

In Atlanta, demonstrators congregated at the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site and marched along Atlanta's Beltline.

In Hollywood, Los Angeles, where at least 2 people were arrested, rallies were held by both supporters and opponents of Trump.


US President Donald Trump could resign over a “constitutional crisis” caused by his son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner and his son Trump Jr. over their interactions with Russia prior to the 2016 election, predicted Philip Bobbitt, a leading professor of law at Columbia University.

Law Professor: Trump Could Resign to Save His Children from Prison
http://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13960425001354

Emails released by Trump Jr. show that he met with a Kremlin-based lawyer last summer, along with Kushner and Paul Manafort, the then chairman of the Trump campaign, Islam Times reported.

Trump Jr., had been promised damaging information about his father’s opponent, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, ahead of meeting with Natalia Veselnitskaya, the Russian lawyer, The New York Times reported on Sunday.

The president's eldest son, 39, responded by saying, "if it's what you say, I love it;" and set up a meeting with the source, according to the emails.

The Kremlin has denied any knowledge of the meeting and that it knew Veselnitskaya. The president's son has also played down the meeting, which reportedly took place on June 9, 2016 at the Trump Tower.

Bobbitt argues that even though President Trump faces the possibility of impeachment over obstruction of justice or incitement for the violation of a criminal statute, but the “likeliest possibility” is resignation.

“The likeliest possibility is the President’s resignation, as a consequence of the criminal prosecution of his children,” the law professor writes in the Evening Standard.

“Resignation, as remote as it seems right now, might well be a choice the President would make to save his children from prison, and himself from future prosecution,” emphasizes Professor Bobbitt, who is a nephew of former President Lyndon Johnson and a prominent constitutional theorist.

The president has defended his son, calling him a “wonderful young man” and a “good boy.”

“Would the President pardon them?” Bobbitt asks. “If he did, it would seal his impeachment and his own.”

Bobbitt has acted as special adviser to several US presidents since Johnson’s presidency.

Several congressional committees and federal investigators are looking into whether the Trump associates colluded with Russia in a bid to help the Republican billionaire in last year's US election.

“I think Jared Kushner ought to resign,” Richard Blumenthal said on Thursday in the wake of news that Kushner attended a meeting with a Kremlin-linked attorney during the 2016 presidential campaign, presstv reported.

“Either Donald Trump is lying when he said he knew nothing about the meeting, or Jared Kushner failed to tell him about it,” he added.


Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a briefing on Friday that Russia is ready to significantly reduce the number of personnel at the US embassy in Moscow as a response to the seizure of its diplomatic property in the United States.

Russia Threatens to Trim Number of American Diplomats at US Embassy
http://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13960424000619

According to her, the previous US administration left a lot of unsolved issues and headaches for the new chief executive's team, TASS reported.

"If they don’t discontinue this practice, then it will be hard to build relations," Zakharova said, adding that "It particularly concerns the expulsion of 35 Russian diplomats the unlawful seizure of Russia’s property despite its diplomatic immunity."

"The seized compounds have not been returned yet. Washington has not only failed to cancel the decision on the expulsion of our diplomats, but it also refuses to issue visas to those who are scheduled to replace the expelled personnel," Zakharova said.

[...] "If there is no progress, we will have to take retaliatory measures," she warned, stressing that "as for the measures - the number of personnel at the US embassy in Moscow significantly exceeds the number of our personnel working in Washington. So, one of the options is that, apart from expelling the corresponding number of US diplomats, we will just have to even the number of personnel."


Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova pointed out that too many CIA employees are currently working at the American Embassy in Moscow.

Russia: Several CIA, Pentagon Agents Operating at US Embassy in Moscow
http://en.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13960424000514

According to TASS, speaking about the possible expulsion of US diplomats from Russia in response to Washington’s move against employees of the Russian Embassy six months ago, Zakharova noted that "there are too many CIA and Pentagon intelligence employees under the roof of the American diplomatic mission whose activities do not correspond to their status."

"You must have heard about the adventures of some representatives of these services, everything was available to the public - wigs, disguises and installations with performances," she added.

In January, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that Moscow had foiled a number of incidents involving intelligence activities by members of the American diplomatic mission in Russia. He noted that some of these cases became public, since "the Americans tried to portray those as a witch hunt against US diplomats, but when it came to the test, the truth proved otherwise."

According to Russian FM, the intelligence activity of American representatives working under diplomatic cover had been foiled. He referred to a well-known episode when a disguised diplomat wearing a wig and using false eyebrows attempted to penetrate into the building of the American Embassy refusing to present his identity card to a security officer and hit him."

The top diplomat also highlighted other instances involving US diplomats, including when a man changed into woman, stressing that "all that was recorded."

Elsewhere in her comments, Zakharova said Russia is prepared to expel US diplomats and shut down some American compounds if Washington fails to reopen two Russian recreational estates that were closed in the US.
 
Veselnitskaya says Magnitsky act lobbyist Browder behind Trump Jr. scandal

https://www.rt.com/news/396728-russian-lawyer-scandal-america/

The scandal concerning the meeting between US President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, and Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya was orchestrated by Magnitsky act lobbyist William Browder, the lawyer told RT in an exclusive interview.
"I´m ready to clarify the situation behind this mass hysteria – but only through lawyers or testifying in the Senate," Veselnitskaya told RT.

“I can only assume that the current situation that has been heated up for ten days or so by now is a a very well-orchestrated story concocted by one particular manipulator – Mr. Browder. He is one of the greatest experts in the field of manipulating mass media,” Veselnitskaya said.

She went on to say that Browder, who is the founder and CEO of the Hermitage Capital investment company, orchestrated this whole disinformation campaign as revenge for the defeat he suffered in a US court in 2013 from a team of lawyers that included Veselnitskaya.

She said: "He wasn't able to convince the court with his lousy human tragedy that actually never happened, about the fate of a dead man - who he only learnt about after his death."

In 2013, Veselnitskaya was one of the lawyers who represented a Cyprus-based holding company Prevezon, owned by Russian businessman Denis Katsyv, in its defense against allegations of money laundering in a court of the Southern State of New York.

The case was settled with no admission of guilt by Prevezon.

Veselnitskaya also said she is now concerned for the safety of her family as it's been revealed that Browder’s team spied on her family's activities even before her meeting with Trump Jr.

“It’s been revealed that Mr. Browder and his team have been gathering information about my family,” she told RT, adding, that Browder’s team “found photos of my house and sent them to Kyle Parker… a famous man in the House of Representatives, who worked for Mr Browder for many years – and not for any congressmen or congress as a whole.”

People working for Browder also shared all her personal details with representatives of the State Department, Veselnitskaya said.

"Is The Left F**king Nuts?" Brett Easton Ellis Slams Hollywood Libs After Dinner Confrontation

https://twitter.com/BretEastonEllis
American Psycho author Brett Easton Ellis launched into a twitter rant over the weekend about Hollywood’s liberal intolerance of any viewpoints that can vaguely be considered pro-Trump, complaining that he’s “done” discussing politics at industry dinners because it creates “too much insanity.”

In a series of tweets, Ellis said he was called a "Trump apologist" and accused of colluding with Russia while leaving the Sunset Tower Hotel in Los Angeles. Ellis — who has been open about his thoughts on Hollywood liberals who continue to denounce Trump and not accept his presidency — also questioned whether the left is "nuts" on Twitter, as the Hollywood Reporter pointed out.

"Defending the American voter I'm yelled at in Sunset Tower for being a Trump apologist and colluding with Russia. Is the Left -flicking- NUTS?" Ellis tweeted Saturday night.

Prior to this outburst, he shared that he was at
"another dinner with the Hollywood liberal establishment defending HRC, fake news, intersectionality, identity politics, PC virtue signaling."

Ellis has repeatedly criticized liberals who launch into histrionics over every Trump-related headline, saying recently on his podcast that lefties who won’t stop kvetching about Trump are letting his presidency define them.
