Free Parking -- Mitch McConnell, The "enemy within"?

Last edited Thu Dec 13, 2018, 11:20 AM - Edit history (1)

This week's Free Parking examines McConnell's family and money ties. He's one dirty bird.

Snip
The story seems to begin in 2005 when Jim invested in Facebook and joined their board. At an international tech summit in 2009 he met Kremlin backed Yuri Milner, a Russian tech entrepreneur, along with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin-Salman (MBS).

Milner and Breyer began working together through Milner’s company, DST, and then circuitously, Milner bought stock and later a board seat at Facebook and Twitter. Consequently, Russia owns 8% of Facebook and 5% of Twitter with Putin’s agent on those social media boards.

There are indications of illigal drugs being smuggled in their ships and questionable financial transactions out of tax havens. Trump may not be the worst when it comes to shady business dealings. Thank you, GOP!

I hope the whole thing rolls into investigation and indictment for the next year and all of them get sent to prison.

It is so hard to keep up with all the players. It's great that you take the time to follow the threads and pull it together for the people not following the research. I would love to see McConnell nailed!
