Those pesky Ruskies just won't go away will they?
quote:
Democrat super-lobbyist Tony Podesta was paid $170,000 over a six-month period last year to represent Sberbank, Russia’s largest bank, seeking to end one of the Obama administration’s economic sanctions against that country, The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group has learned.
quote:
Podesta, founder and chairman of the Podesta Group, is listed as a key lobbyist on behalf of Sberbank, according to Senate lobbying disclosure forms. His firm received more than $24 million in fees in 2016, much of it coming from foreign governments, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics.
quote:
The Podesta Group charged Sberbank $20,000 per month, plus expenses, on a contract from March through September 2016.

Typical, Dems are guilty of whatever they accuse the GOP of doing.

Is Tony Podesta related to John Podesta?

You should probably put the first name in your subject line. You wouldn't want to deceive anyone now, would you? (wink)

It's a full on strategy, accuse your enemies of what you are actually guilty of then have your propaganda arm "the media" run with it.
It's insane to think the Trump bullshite is even a story, I mean for gods sake the Secretary of State was running a "charity" soliciting hundreds of millions of dollars from foreign interests.

Wow.
Let me guess: you got that story from some right-wing outrage aggregator. Success! You were outraged. But also fooled.
Why do you guys insist on misleading yourselves?

Hopefully we'll get a tweet from Trump on this.

Would you accept the lobbying registration from the Senate?
Looks like someone's telephone is going to get a bunch of CAT FACTS

Maybe the taps were set to catch Podesta should he ever call the Trump Tower.
