For those who were not going to click on the Bloomberg link I provided earlier and for the poster who claimed I was referring to a Las Vegas hotel room; here is a snippet of the interesting article.

Russian prosecutors said they were opening new lines of inquiry against these investors. What Veselnitskaya saw in these steps were alleged tax improprieties that would be a black mark on the Democratic Party, because Browder and at least one member of the wealthy Ziff family had contributed to the Clinton Global Initiative, the person said.

No charges have surfaced in Russia against the Ziffs. Browder called Russia’s investigation last year a politically motivated rehash of old allegations. The Ziff family, through a spokesman, declined to comment. Veselnitskaya didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Veselnitskaya was no stranger to U.S. officials at the time of the Trump Tower meeting in New York. She was a champion of an agenda dear to the Kremlin -- pressing to roll back the Magnitsky Act, a U.S. law that branded 18 Russians as human-rights abusers. It was named for Sergei Magnitsky, a lawyer who worked for Browder’s Hermitage Capital Management and died in a Moscow prison after uncovering what he said was a tax fraud that diverted $230 million from Russian taxpayers into the pockets of a handful of civil servants.The 2012 law angered the Kremlin, which then prohibited most adoptions from Russia to the U.S., chilling relations between Washington and Moscow.

[On another occasion, Veselnitskaya got taxpayers to foot a $1,000-a-night tab at New York’s Plaza Hotel, irking prosecutors in Manhattan pursuing a related tax case. She was also denied a U.S. visa, leading to what she called a humiliating strip search at Heathrow Airport in London.

Just a simple Russian lawyer invited to a Congressional hearing by Rep. Dana Rohrabacher to troll the US ambassador to Russia who supported sanctions.

And was there any fallout from that? No. Because Cardin supported the sanctions and Clinton was worried they'd interfere with the reset or did she flip flop by then?

Translation: lift the sanctions

It is unsaid in all of the denials, but it is core to the Russian ask.

It is why the House hasn't passed the Senate bill regarding Russian sanctions, because Trump doesn't want to sign it. If it passes the House, it goes into law as the vote was veto proof.

Remind me. How much did Charles Kushner donate to the CGI? Maybe he's also trying to frame Trump and his idiot son?

As long as that old horse keep trying to resurrect itself.

Rohrabacher was the other person besides Trump accused by Paul Ryan of being paid by the Russians in the leaked tape.

I say again, Twitter rumor says this goes far deeper into the GOP than anyone would guess.
