Democrat Tom Malinowski Took Thousands from Nord Stream 2 Russian Pipeline Lobbyist
Breitbart ^ | 14 Mar 2022 | JACOB BLISS

Rep. Tom Malinowski (D-NJ), a Democrat who has consistently opposed measures to make America energy independent again, took thousands in donations from a lobbyist for the Russian Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

Gas prices surged 22 percent in the last two weeks to hit the most expensive ever recorded, $4.43 per gallon, which exceeded the record from July 2008, the prior all-time high, by 32 cents per gallon. So the discovery of Malinowski accepting thousands in donations from a Russian pipeline lobbyist could have severe repercussions for the vulnerable Democrat, who has opposed American energy independence.

As Breitbart News reported in November, “Under former President Donald Trump, the United States was energy independent for the first time since 1957 and no longer relied on foreign energy sources.”

Vincent Roberti is a former Democrat Connecticut state representative who runs Roberti Global, a firm that has been paid $8.5 million for its Nord Stream 2 lobbying work, according to lobbying disclosure records. He also has held “honorary” titles in the Democrat campaign arms of the House and Senate.

Simultaneously holding titles with the campaign arm and lobbying for Nord Stream 2, he gave Malinowski $8,600 in campaign contribution, according to FEC filings. In fact, $5,800 of the campaign contributions — the maximum legal limit — were from February 2021, only months before President Joe Biden waived sanctions on the company behind the pipeline.

Proves—Today the USA is for sale. A few million and you can get what you want from a greedy Congress with no loyalty to America. Time to stop electing “Citizen’s of the World” and only elect Americans.

It’s treason - working for foreign entities to undermine the United States.

His district was reliably Republican until just a few years ago. Unfortunately Republicans who for decades had a firm grip on running Somerset County, never met a developer they did not like and with the thousands of new homes and businesses built there in the last 15 years came thousands of transplants from eastern NJ and NY who make a lot of money but are reliably democrat. The Republicans in Somerset gladly paved the way for their own political extinction.
