Russian sources have revealed a possible case of collusion between the Clinton Foundation and Oligarch Viktor Vekselberg, who invested in Trump-critical online media during the 2016 campaign.
Leading Russian political Telegram channel Nezygar reports that Russian-based Oligarch Viktor Vekselberg used US media companies to try and sabotage the Trump campaign beginning in 2016. Vekselberg is one of the wealthiest men in Russia, worth over $10 billion, and has donated to the Clinton Foundation since Hillarys tenure as Secretary of State.
Nezygar reports that Vekselberg bought a share in Odyssey Media, a fast-growing U.S. blog platform, in April 2016. At that time, Odyssey had over 30 million visitors a month, especially among students and millennials, many opposed to candidate Trump. Odyssey is a bit like a college paper on steroids. The startup has a stable of over 10,000 writers, aged 18-28, who produce around one piece a week. Odyssey then relies on the social networks of the individual writers to push out the content to the masses, Business Insider wrote in 2016.
After Trumps nomination, Odyssey Media Group hired dozens of new employees, aiming to expand from 80 to 400 markets by 2016 mostly on university campuses which were to become hotbeds of the anti-Trump Resistance later. Nezygar claims a large number of these authors were actually sock puppets fake accounts with different identities controlled by one person. Today, most of these Odyssey accounts are suspended or inactive.

IMO, this is a major reason why they moved into the Middle East, why they got Obama-Hillary to turn over 20% of our uranium production to them, via the scandalous Uranium-One deal, and why they obtained ownership of the largest natural gas company in the Ukraine (Burisma), via one of their stooges there (Bidens son worked for this company).
I think this guy from the article (Viktor Vekselberg) plays a large role in Russias attempts to acquire various energy companies.

From The Hill, Jan 2019...
Vekselberg was one of several Russian nationals sanctioned and designated by the Treasury Department last April.
The Russian government operates for the disproportionate benefit of oligarchs and government elites, said Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin in a press release announcing the designations.
The release stated Vekselberg was designated for operating in the energy sector of the Russian Federation economy.
It added that two associates of Vekselberg were arrested for bribing officials connected to a Russian energy project.

So, Biden-boy is now a Russian stooge?
It's been known for some time.

* Hunter Biden was appointed to the board of directors of a Ukranian company [Burisma] as part of an effort to recruit well-connected Americans while the company was under investigation, according to The New York Times.
* Then-Vice President Joe Biden played a role in pressuring Ukraine to oust the countrys top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who was investigating the company, Burisma.
* Shokins successor initially ended the investigation into Burisma, but decided in March 2019 to reopen it.

Burisma is a natural gas exploration and production company owned by Mykola Zlochevsky, a cabinet member of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich. [Viktor Yanukovich was Putins stooge in the Ukraine -ETL].
Yanukovich was removed from his position in February 2014.
He [Yanukovich] currently lives in exile in Russia and is wanted by Ukraine for high treason.
Zlochevsky later fled the country in late-2014 as Ukrainian prosecutors launched investigations into his time in public office as well as his private businesses.

His major rival was Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych. ..."
The campaign was often bitter and violent.
Yushchenko became seriously ill in early September 2004.
He was flown to Viennas Rudolfinerhaus clinic for treatment and diagnosed with acute pancreatitis, accompanied by interstitial edematous changes, due to a serious viral infection and chemical substances that are not normally found in food products.
Yushchenko claimed that he had been poisoned by government agents.
After the illness, his face was greatly disfigured: jaundiced, bloated, and pockmarked.
British toxicologist Professor John Henry of St Marys Hospital in London declared the changes in Yushchenkos face were due to chloracne, which results from dioxin poisoning.[17]
Dutch toxicologist Bram Brouwer also stated his changes in appearance were the result of chloracne, and found dioxin levels in Yushchenkos blood 6,000 times above normal.[18]
On December 11, Dr. Michael Zimpfer of the Rudolfinerhaus clinic declared that Yushchenko had ingested TCDD dioxin and had 1,000 times the usual concentration in his body.[19]

Exactly. The obvious ‘rat rule of thumb,
Whatever the ‘Rats accuse the repubs of is what they are up to.
Been that way for years. An honest MSM would have revealed this.
The Clintons have been very quiet lately.
Viktor Vekselberg info found in this excerpt from “From Russia with Money”:
Those on the Russian side of the Skolkovo research project have also donated to the Clinton Foundation. The man heading up the Skolkovo Foundation in Russia is a controversial figure named Viktor Vekselberg.
Described as one oligarch who isnt afraid to get down and dirty (Fortunemagazine) and the oligarchs oligarch (Esquire), Vekselberg made his billions in the oil and metals sectors.
Vekselberg is a Putin confidant and a Clinton Foundation donor via his company, Renova Group.
The Clintons were clearly cultivating their relationship with Vekselberg during Hillarys tenure as Secretary of State. On June 4, 2012, the foreign policy director at the Clinton Foundation, Amitabh Desai, reached out to Cheryl Mills, Jake Sullivan, and Michael Fuchs at the State Department via email. The subject line was Russia/Viktor Vekselberg? Vekselberg and his company the Renova Group had contributed between $10,000 and $25,000 to the ClintonFoundation.
It read, Would [the State Department] have any concerns about [Clinton Global Initiative] inviting Viktor Vekselberg, President of Renova Group, to attend CGI Annual Meeting in NYC in September?
The email appears to have gone unanswered. Vekselberg did, indeed, come to the U.S. in October 2012.
In October 2012, Vekselberg hosted a fundraising gala at Fort Ross in California.
Both Putin and Hillary Clinton sent messages of congratulations.
Back in June 2010 Vekselberg committed $1 million to Keep Californias Fort .......

from link:
Renaissance Capital, a Russian investment bank, paid Bill Clinton $500,000 for that speech, according to his wife’s financial disclosures from 2010. The State Department had given its approval for the trip just two days after Bill Clinton’s office filed its request.
The former president’s travel to Russia for the speech and potential meetings with Vekselberg and others came as Hillary Clinton’s State Department labored to drum up interest in a technology-sharing project, led by Vekselberg, called Skolkovo.
Interesting tidbit:

“Viktor Vekselberg is married and has two children. According to The Guardian, he described himself as half-American because his wife, Marina, their son, and their daughter are United States citizens.”
