Russia denies Republican, Democratic senators visas for delegation trip
ABC by Yahoo! ^ | August 28, 2019

Two U.S. senators say that they were denied visas as part of an official delegation to Russia for talks with their counterparts in the country's parliament.

Amid tensions over arms control, human rights, and Russian aggression in Ukraine, Venezuela, and Syria, it's a sign of the frayed ties between Washington and Moscow, despite President Donald Trump's consistent calls for better relations with President Vladimir Putin's government -- including its readmission to the G-7.

Republican Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Democrat Chris Murphy of Connecticut were scheduled to leave on their trip next week, according to aides, with stops in Ukraine, Kosovo, and Serbia as well.

Back there aways but a young girl was kidnapped by Chechen monsters from Moscow. Had some of her fingers chopped off before being rescued.

She and her father I think wanted to come here to tell their story. The US would not give them visas.

We had a discussion on a related tread and you brought up Berezovsky and Litvinenko. Both were organizers and beneficiaries of Chechen kidnapping business.

‘Former spy’ Litvinenko was basically a ‘BMW and Rolex’ dirty cop in Moscow in earlier 1990s in charge of dealing with Muslim mafia. He had a specific approach to ‘dealing’ and every business owner who had problems with Chechen mobs knew he has to approach Litvinenko and not empty-handed. Litvinenko accumulated enormous wealth on it but gained such a notoriety that the time was ticking for him. Internal security department was after him and he was going to go farming snow in Siberia for his corruption at any moment.

He wanted powerful protection and knew Berezovsky has Yeltsin’s ear so he secretly organized a car bomb on Berezovsky and then descended as a guardian angel on him offereing protection.

It worked really great and he also co-opted Chechen mobs for Berezovsky to kill his business adversaries. A pro-wrestler car dealer ‘Sylvester’ among the first.

Then Litvinenko enlisted to Chechnya with the Feds in hope the internal security won’t follow him to frontlines as Berezovsky was in process of solving his legal issues.

Litvinenko didn’t waste his ‘dealing’ talent in Chechnya as well and established lucrative business with terrorists.
Berezovsky was a security advisor for Yeltsin and mulled dropping ‘no deal with terrorists’ policy making the Feds pay to the Muslims for hostages they were taking.

Hostage taking really exploded especially in Southern Russia in 1995-1998. It was normal occurrence for Chechens to track some rich kid in expensive car near night club, grab him or her, drug and drop between pallets into a 18-wheeler to bring to Chechnya.

Then they would video a person’s body part removed and submit the tape to the relatives and the government to get paid for it.

Berezovsky funneled billions of government money to terrorists this way for generous kickbacks and Litvinenko’s role once again was well known but Berezovsky at this point persuaded Yeltsyn he was a great guy and a victim of witch hunt by FSB. Yeltsyn ordered FSB to leave him alone and said Berezovsky is doing a better job in countering terrorism than the military and intelligence and they have to listen what Berezovsky says. To add insult to injury Berezovsky appointed Litvinenko as his person at FSB. Imagine, a crooked cop miraculously escaped prosecution for many crimes now was going to give orders to the head of intelligence service.

And that are just few of their many crimes. Both were accepted as political refugees in UK and Teresa May covered for Litvinenko being the head of Home Office at the time!

Are they upset that their ploy to enlist the US government in their effort to oust Trump failed? So now, no visas?

Why is Johnson going anywhere with a Communist? Does he really think that bipartisanship is possible? Good on Russia. Less money wasted on junket. Cancel the whole trip!

I thought the President was in charge of government-to-government contacts. Why are these tools trying to conduct foreign policy?
