BACKGROUND:

"The husband of a Miami Democrat hoping to unseat U.S. Rep. Carlos Curbelo this November has financial ties to an Eastern European oligarch dogged by allegations of contract killings and embezzlement.

Public records show that Debbie Mucarsel-Powell’s husband, Robert Powell, spent much of the last 10 years as general counsel for companies owned at least in part by Igor Kolomoisky, a wealthy Ukrainian businessman involved in banking and mining. In federal financial disclosures, Mucarsel-Powell reported that her husband of 15 years earned most of their household income during the previous two years — at least $695,000 — from a ferroalloys trading corporation associated with Kolomoisky."

Congress candidate’s husband has financial ties to scandal-plagued Ukrainian oligarch (2018)

"Last fall, something funny happened in Washington: A pair of American lobbyists put on a fake congressional hearing in the basement of the Capitol, accusing a former Ukrainian central banker of odious corruption. A Ukrainian TV station broadcast the event there, claiming it was evidence that the United States Congress was investigating the accusations (they weren’t). The apparent sponsor of the hearing was a Ukrainian oligarch named Ihor Kolomoisky, whose bank was nationalized by the banker. Kolomoisky, who sicced his own private army on the Russians after they invaded eastern Ukraine, has been accused of sponsoring contract killings.

Now, there’s another apparent connection between the Kolomoisky and American politics. A number of businesses linked to the oligarch have hired the attorney Robert Powell, the husband of Democratic House of Representatives candidate Debbie Mucarsel-Powell. Just one of those firms paid Powell at least $700,000 over two years, according to public records."

Funny, zillions of dollars being kicked back to american dems by a broke country.

I have the terrible feeling WE paid for these kickbacks in the form of US funding of Ukraine.

That is not important eventually. That Trump said or didn’t say on a phone is important and an impeachable offense. /s

More and more this impeachment seems to be about Democrats and their corruption than anything else.

“ reportedly took $700,000 from firms connected to a Ukrainian oligarch who has allegedly been “accused of ordering contract killings.””

And the aberration is?

All we really need is to disband the FBI and give the work to honest men, if we can find any.

That is exactly what happened.

Billions of dollars in Foreign Aid were stolen by corrupt Ukrainians in collusion with Democrat Politicians and a small number of equally corrupt Republicans who collaborated with the Democrats.

The money was then distributed to transnational Foundations/NGOs controlled by people like George Soros and the Clintons and/or laundered back to family members , friends of powerful and well connected politicians

Major racket. We jeer at aThird World Kleptocrats, but these thefts of Foreign Aid funds by the third world kleptocrats are enabled by American pols and high government officials who receive their own kickbacks from the collusion with these kleptocrats to steal foreign aid

The UN is a basically another major cut out for money laundering operations through its complex network of contracting agencies and entities, all of which charge massive , unregulated and hard to trace commissions, finders fees and administrative fees that facilitates the theft and kick back.

Only a very small portion of UN Aid funds ever hit the ground to help the people it was ear marked for. The vast majority of the aid money is siphoned off by by the crooks, cronies and leeches in the distribution list

This totally explains the white hot hatred for Donald Trump by the well connected crony system set up by the global elites. He is threatening their graft and corruption system that steals close to a Trillion dollars a year in aid money and other forms of government funds
