U.S. Hires Company With K.G.B. Link to Guard Moscow Embassy

I don't know about you or anyone out on this site and thread, but this pisses me off to know end.

And I am going to call my representative and senator on this matter, this is BS, and I encourage all that read this piece to call and demand some answers

House and Senate Switchboard and phone information) (202) 224-3121

Rex Tillerson needs to be IMPEACHED, not now, but yesterday, he is a fucking traitor, he has gutted the State Department with the help of the malignant narcissistic asshole, that just came back with meeting with his comrade in arms Putin.

This country ever since its inception has had U.S. marines guarding the embassies around the world, the money is allocated from the State Department to supplement the defense department on putting those guards at those United State Properties-----------in other words it is in the budget, it was not like that when I was running around the world in the military and have it given to some private contractors, it does not save money.

Rex Tillerson and his fucking traitorous team let out a contract for $2.8 million on a no bid contract and gave it to the oligarchy kid who's father use to be buddies with Putin when that KGB spy was stationed in Dresden, and the father was also a KGB officer.

Why in the fuck would Tillerson do this? he has gutted 30% of the staff at the state department, and this asshole needs to be brought before a committee, Intelligence / Foreign Relations, or the committee that allocates these funds like Defense, and testify under oath about this shit -----------end of story.

So in closing on this rant I again encourage all the readers of this story to call there representatives and demand some answers, and not this BS, and be given that "I will look into it" answers, but some answers-----------------thank you


This is a total disgrace and a national security issue!!!!!

MOSCOW — When President Vladimir V. Putin in July ordered American diplomatic missions in Russia to slash their staff by 755 employees, the State Department said it would need time to assess the “impact of such a limitation and how we will respond to it.”

Part of that response has now become clear: To make up for the loss of security guards axed in the Russian-mandated staff cuts, Washington has hired a private Russian company that grew out of a security business co-founded by Mr. Putin’s former K.G.B. boss, an 82-year-old veteran spy who spent 25 years planting agents in Western security services and hunting down their operatives.

Under a $2.8 million no-bid contract awarded by the Office of Acquisitions in Washington, security guards at the American Embassy in Moscow and at consulates in St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg and Vladivostok will be provided by Elite Security Holdings, a company closely linked to the former top K.G.B. figure, Viktor G. Budanov, a retired general who rose through the ranks to become head of Soviet counterintelligence.
