Elections “reflect the values and the priorities and the beliefs of American citizens,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Michelle Parikh said in her closing argument this week. “Jesse Benton by his actions did damage to those principles.”
Witnesses from the RNC and the firm hired to organize the event said they weren’t told Vasilenko was a Russian citizen. Benton said in an email to his RNC contact that Vasilenko was “a friend who spends most of his time in the Caribbean”; he described Vasilenko’s interpreter as “a body gal.” In factBenton argued that he followed the advice of his previous counsel, David A. Warrington, whoTrump.
“If Oprah was available,” defense attorney Brian Stolarz said in his closing argument, “we wouldn’t even be here.” “He wants to be an influencer,” Stolarz said. “This is just shameless self-promotion from a guy who can afford to take this picture.”
Why is this the only place I’ve heard of this story? How on earth is THIS not everywhere! RussianMoney Trump RealNews
SydneyNafo Oh, now the comes out and the story unravels.
Can tell all the Trump haters didn't even read the article. They just see headlines and run with it. 'Russian collusion'!! When's Hillary going to be charged with selling uranium to the Russians then filtering the money into her foundation? Talk about Russion collusion.
You think we’ll be hearing from Jimmy Jordan about this?
And Trump is still saying no collusion
What a misleading headline smh
This is another thief that will get off Scott free. Just hide and watch 🤬
Still WaPo?
Really. Tookthem a while to plan that crap
FBI taking many days to arrest big Democrat donor Sam Bankman-Fried. Madoff arrested in one day.
As if anyone with a brain didn't already know this. Go after Trump, his offspring, & that no good wife! They are allllll criminals!
Are there any documents about Russia missing?
Tell the whole story how he pocketed 75,000 for himself. Trump had no idea he was funneling the money. It was to pad his own pocket. You’re trying to make it look like Trump had him do this and was part of the scandal. But Trump was NOT in on the scandal he was a victim.
I doubt this simply because the media keeps telling the world that you crane is winning when in fact they're not so why should we believe you about Donald Trump
Joe and hunter ?
Staying hopeful for our nation in spite of the greed that tried to undermine it.
Was that information found on Hunter Biden laptop...👀
Now after 6 years of trying to nail Trump. Please. All STATES Cecede, start an entirely new gov, with transparency in place. Only way to fix it.
Now tell me about Joe, Hunter and the DNC’s dealings with China and oh oh their cozy relationship with Ukraine, FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried’s money laundering/ponzi scheme
Everyone check your shoes, for all the bull veal on them!
And here's your card!
StealthRhino321
Why is anyone still surprised by the level of corruption Trump has always been involved in. At this point it’s a given! 🤦♂️
And it has absolutely nothing to do with Trump. Really is this the best you have?
The Russians should have used FTX.

BS
Whaaaaa?
Man. I am really surprised
Misinformation again. Shut down the Washington Post. They are a danger to our Democracy.
Not surprised.
Oh shit a $25,000 ticket. Now we no why Hillary lost folks.

Fake news
Trust worthy Washington post
The evidence at trial showed that Benton bought a $25,000 ticket to a September 2016 Republican National Committee (RNC) event on behalf of Roman Vasilenko, Vasilenko is under investigation in Russia for allegedly running a pyramid scheme

These are the self appointed leaders of the 'Freedom & Democracy' Flag Ship; a 'phrenic mind could think whatever they wish, but reality lies elsewhere.
Think you should be investigating this . . .
Lopez4VA “Benton began his career on the GOP’s libertarian fringe as an aide to former congressman Ron Paul (R-Tex.), whose granddaughter is Benton’s wife.” 👀👀👀

Well that should stop Trump running for Dog Catcher !
Interesting but not as interesting as the millions Hunter got from Russia, Ukraine and China.thebigguy
Your FTX DNC money laundering reporting is lacking.
Lies are a coverup
I imagine we'll see more and more of these bullshit stories as the real stories that are backed by actual evidence of Biden's criminal activity is finally looked into it. Wapo is trying to distract you from the inconvenient truth that we have a corrupt president in office.
Fake news!
Too bad no one will read your retraction

Just f*cking stop, would ya! Since they're about to open an investigation into Hunter and the BigGuy you want to start this nonsense again? Biden is the Criminal NOT Trump!
So, a guy pays someone to buy him a ticket to take a pic with trump, and is under investigation in Russia, and the media runs with “It’s Russian money.” That’s why many Trump supporters don’t trust the media when you report real facts.
Fake News 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 please report on the corruption between Hoe Biden and SBF_FTX 🔥🔥🔥 Real 📰 News
☆ REMEMBER! MONEY from Poetin on TRUMP can spiral out of control and endanger a democracy and turn into unintentionally ending up in an unwanted dictatorship! D.Trump is now trying to win the election again and then declare HIMSELF a dictator for LIFE like Poetin !?

Is this on the GOP investigation agenda?
Hey FoxNews, care to clarify?
No collusion.
Jesse Benton, 44, was pardoned by Trump in 2020 for a different campaign finance crime, months before he was indicted again on six counts related to facilitating an illegal foreign campaign donation. He was found guilty Thursday on all six counts.
