BREAKING: Giuliani Ukrainian Associates Charged in Campaign Finance Case

Posted on | October 10, 2019 | Comments Off on BREAKING: Giuliani Ukrainian Associates Charged in Campaign Finance Case

The Wall Street Journal story is behind a paywall, so I’ll have to give the report to you from NBC News:

Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas, two foreign-born donors who gave money to a political action committee supporting President Donald Trump, were arrested Wednesday night and face charges tied to campaign-finance violations, two law enforcement officials confirmed to NBC News.
The pair are expected to appear in federal court Thursday.
Fruman and Parnas worked with Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s personal attorney, Giuliani has previously said, as part of his dealings in Ukraine that involved efforts to encourage the nation to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. Parnas is Ukrainian, while Fruman is Belarusian, according to the indictment unsealed Thursday. . . .
Fruman and Parnas are charged with making $325,000 in illegal straw donations to a Trump super PAC, according to the indictment, as well as giving $15,000 to a second committee.
In May 2018, the two men gave $325,000 to the pro-Trump super PAC American First Action through an LLC, the group confirmed to NBC News. . . .
House committees involved in the recently launched impeachment inquiry sought documents and depositions from Parnas and Fruman. Parnas was requested to appear before the House Intelligence, Foreign Affairs and Oversight Committees Thursday, while Fruman was requested to appear Friday.

What’s happening here? It’s very simple: If you are connected to Trump in any way, you will become a target of investigation.

The Deep State wants to make it a crime to be a Republican.
