Oleg Deripaska could be a target of Durham’s spygate probe
SOURCE — NBC NEWS
FBI agents on Tuesday swarmed the home of Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska in Washington, D.C., an agency spokesperson confirmed to NBC News. The reason for their presence wasn’t immediately clear. The spokesperson said the agency is conducting “law enforcement activity at the home,” but wouldn’t elaborate.
Deripaska is a billionaire oil tycoon with close ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin. He was among two dozen Russian oligarchs and officials who were sanctioned by the Treasury Department in April 2018.
A press release announcing the sanctions said Deripaska has been investigated for money laundering and accused of “threatening the lives of business rivals, illegally wiretapping a government official, and taking part in extortion and racketeering.”
He sued the U.S. over the sanctions, but a federal court judge dismissed the case in June.
NBC News reported in 2018 that Deripaska had been repeatedly denied a visa to enter the United States over his alleged ties to organized crime. But the Russian government had recently given Deripaska diplomatic status, allowing him to enter the country with immunity, several current and former U.S. officials said at the time.
Comrade Deripaska, we’ll offer a deal. You give evidence, it doesn’t have to be true, that Trump colluded with Putin in 2016, we’ll let you plead down to spitting in the sidewalk. Interested?
From the Democrat playbook: When your best laid plans end up in the crapper, there’s always fallback Plan “R”.
Yep - Deep State Attack Plan R
He must have walked past the Capitol on January 6th, or he had a garage door pull rope that might look like a noose. I can’t think of any other reason why FBI agents would swarm.
So they will keep trying with endless bogus charges.
“Didn’t he supply the dirt for the Steele Dossier?”
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Yep, and a whole lot more. Bongino was all over this guy before and during the Russian collusion hoax (well, it wasn’t really a hoax, but it was the Democrats they were colluding with, not Trump).

Yes, in the file right after “Racist”.
FBI? He’s in good hands.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
no worries.
he keeps all his information on his lap top
Window-dressing BS by our incompetent version of Stasi...
No “oligarch” is going to have anything incriminating in their DC home...
Agents rise from their coffins and descend on a house in a reprise of “Night of the Living Deadbeats.”
Sounds like he’s yet another innocent perp walked, if it’s “Today’s FBI” doing it.
Remember, Hillary was clean and Trump paid hookers to jump on a bed 0bama slept on when Trump was there, which he wasn’t. Oh, and Jan. 6th had no untoward FBI involvement, like leaders of organizations entrapping people who didn’t want to do what the FBI source kept insisting on doing. And the idea the FBI would place information on a female reporter’s computer is just so unbelievable, too. The list goes on.
“Today’s FBI” is a joke.
Have they figured out the password to Hunter’s computer yet?
Roflmao.
I have said for years that this guy was dirty...and that Manafort would have enough info to flip on him if he wanted to.
Of course people here didnt believe me.
Heck..i was talking about this in 2017
We will see if this guy is the top dog or wants to flip
Any relation to Minister of Information Derpsaki?
.
When the media uses the term “Oligarch” and the DoJ does a raid - they’re trying to slime Trump or Trump associates.
.
.
Stephanopolous just tried to reignite the Russia, Russia, Russia stuff, too.
.
I bet he wasn’t vaxxed!
Did they notify CNN before the raid?
NBC apparently...................It was their turn..............
