This happened yesterday and I’m not sure why it’s being ignored but I did Nazi this coming nor did I have it in my White Nationalist Russia Bingo card.
I sharply criticize the Trump Administration & the current leadership at @StateDept but this is in fact newsworthy especially the “designations” - I triple checked, this is a first:

The relevant sections of yesterday’s briefing - I found this extremely interesting - the fact that RIM members have traveled & liaised with Americans (cough the base) and trained paramilitary groups in Europe...

Your (one of many supplemental threads) https://twitter.com/File411/status/1232761941317373953?s=20
Your second Supplemental Thread re The Base and our “friends” - https://twitter.com/File411/status/1217842711828615169?s=20
Like I said my USPTO research might not be connected re the Omega Group BUT the “watch tower” for sure is absolutely connected to The Base & Roman https://twitter.com/File411/status/1220726529656786947?s=20
There was another interesting exchange in yesterday’s briefing. I think most of us, particularly those who’ve researched the “transnational phenomena” isn’t surprising but for State to be so unequivocal & direct with expectations - it’s refreshing

So @Ukrainolution thought this exchange in yesterday’s briefing might interest you & yours;
2014 Crimea + RIM + “little green men” = OOOh
Is anyone going to be surprised if RIM & Wagner end-up crossing streams? Because it would make sense...

FTO v SDGT & why this matters:
“This is an SDGT designation, not an FTO designation... possible criminal charge for providing material support to a designated FTO would not be available here”
