FBI agents swarm Washington home of Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska



FBI agents swarm Washington home of Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska
FBI agents on Tuesday swarmed the home of Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska in Washington, D.C., an agency spokesperson confirmed to NBC News...Next door neighbor George Conway, the husband of former President Trump senior counselor Kellyanne Conway, walked over to the house on Tuesday afternoon to snap a photo of the law enforcement activity. Conway said he has never seen Deripaska at the home.


Remember when Steve Mnuchin tried to lift sanctions on Deripaska’s companies?
Yeah. Me too.


I think what's most important about the raid on multiple homes of Oleg Deripaska is it shows that Merrick Garland hasn't forgotten about 2016, Russia, Manafort, Giuliani, and the Trump campaign and he's not going to just let them get a pass. - BlackKnight10K tweet

Lest We Not Forget It Was Bush & Cheney Who Fed Colin Powell Bad Intel
Reacting to the death on Monday of former Secretary of State Colin Powell, Fox News host Chris Wallace said that Powell’s speech making the case in 2003 before the U.N. Security Council that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction “shouldn’t define” the former decorated general’s legacy.

The cost of the Build Back Better Agenda is $0.

The President's plan won't add to our national deficit and no one making under $400,000 per year will see their taxes go up a single penny. It's fully paid for by ensuring big corporations and the very wealthy pay their fair share. - The White House tweet

One of the things that was unique about Colin Powell: he was one of the few members of the Bush administration to admit that he was completely wrong about Iraq. And he didn’t try to sugarcoat it. - ppavnr tweet
