1. Three months before the 2016 election, DONDON JR. met at Trump Tower with Joel Zamel (an Israeli specialist in social media manipulation) , George Nader (He who FLIPPED and that's key here) and Erik Prince (he who met Putin's cabana boy at the Seychelles, WITH NADER). https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/997933680369774592
2. Why would they meet, you ask? To offer help to the Trump team and to start forging the "relationships" that shaped policy well into Trump's first year in office. Oh, you say? Oh.
3. PRINCE arranged the meeting. Nader told Trump Jr. that crown princes of Saudi Arabia AND UAE were eager to HELP TRUMP WIN THE ELECTION. As you know, this very rarely means something perfectly clean and legal.
4. The Israel social media manipulation specialist, Joel Zamel, "extolled his company's ability to give an edge to a political campaign" & presented a multimillion-dollar proposal for a social media manipulation effort to help elect Trump.
5. The company, which employed several Israeli former intelligence officers, specialized in collecting info and shaping opinion through social media. Reminder that Mueller has been PROBING WIKISTRAT, the consulting firm founded by Joel Zamel. See below. https://twitter.com/aliasvaughn/status/980984345916792833
6. Mueller asked Zamel questions about NADER bc of their business relationship. It looks like Nader is smack at the centre of everything here bc NADER? Is also in the middle of Prince's Seychelles meeting with Putin's cabana boy. And? NADER FLIPPED. Bloop!
7. In previous April report about Zamel the WSJ said "Mr. Mueller’s team also asked Mr. Zamel questions about his work, including for certain clients, the person said. The ultimate target of this line of inquiry is unknown". I'd say today we can say Don Jr/Kushner/campaign?
8. After Trump was elected, Nader paid Zamel a sum of money around $2 mln according to an associate. A company linked to Zamel provided Nader with an "elaborate presentation about the significance of social media campaigning to Trump's victory". Oh, sounds VERY familiar. Trolls.
9. I don't know about you but this sounds like there may have been a certain um, COORDINATION with Russia troll factories here. At least to deliver the same message.
10. As we knew from April re: Zamel and previously re: Prince, Mueller is all over it. What we didn't know is that DON JR. is directly involved and Mueller is specifically looking at THESE interactions. Hey Jr.? Better start getting worried, bc NADER FLIPPED.
11. Well I said it sounded like they may have at least coordinated with Russia on message and NYT tells us that Mueller is investigating this "help" and whether this assistance was coordinated with Russia. Guess it is THAT obvious.
12. Investigators hae questioned numerous witnesses in DC, New York, Atlanta, Tel aviv and elsewhere about "what foreign help may have been pledged or accepted" and about the above-mention potential coordination with Russia. Oh.
13. NYT then brings in a little bit of obvious "The interviews, some in recent weeks, are further evidence that Muelelr's investigation remains in an intense phase even as Trump's lawyers are publicly calling for Mueller to bring it to a close." Err thank you, Captain Obvious.
14. Here's the best part: Alan Futerfas, lawyer for Dondon Jr. told NYT that Jr. "recalls a meeting with Prince, Nader and another individual who may be Zamel. They pitched him on a social media platform or marketing strategy. He was not interested and that was the end of it." 😂
15. Oh, Jr. "recalls"? But it was nothing he was not interested? 😂Just WHO does Futerfas think he is even vaguely kidding at this point? Mueller has it all from Nader, who WAS THERE, so this is bloody stupid on a lawyer's part, too.
16. This happened in August 2016. So AFTER the July Trump Tower meeting with the Russian "lawyer" (who, we now know, was quite simply a Russian spy). And of course with all the QATARI meddling that's going on with COHEN as well, Mueller is all "so WHICH did you pick?" LOL.
17. Since Zamel is already in trouble as is, his lawyer is all "Neither him nor any of his related entities had ANY involvement whatsoever in the US election campaign. DOJ clarified from Day 1 that Joel and his companies have never been a TARGET of the investigation".
18. Yes darling, Trump isn't a "target" technically either but he is a SUBJECT which may WELL apply to Zamel, who will be turned into TARGETS the second Mueller decides to file indictments. "My client provided full cooperation to the govt to assist with their probe". Yeah, AND?
19. LOL at Nader's lawyer who is all "He has fully cooperated with the special counsel's investigation and will continue to do so". Oh yeah, and that's great for us, thank you. Also good way to tell others "I've been singing and I will continue to. Up to you now."
20. The other LOL is a senior official in Saudi Arabia saying it had nEVER employed Nader in any capacity or authorized him to speak for the crown prince. Yeah, sure. Just like Qatar DIDN'T hire Cohen. Same exact way, I'm sure.
21. Just for clarity, Nader and Zamel BOTH worked for the Emirati royal court, hence why they go way back. When Trump got the nom, Nader started asking ON BEHALF OF UAE Prince "so how do we support him?" AND he also visited Moscow at least TWICE during the presidential campaign.
22. It is all SO incredibly coincidental, isn't it? Nader, who wanted to help get Trump elected ON BEHALF of the UAE Prince, ALSO went to Moscow Twice, AS A CONFIDENTIAL EMISSARY from the Prince. Oh, you don't say? This is the "coordination" we were talking about.
23. And let's not forget that Nader then also organized the Seychelles meeting between Erik Prince (who is Betsy De Vos's brother, lest anyone forgets) AND the Putin cabana boy. Meeting to organize a BACK CHANNEL between Russia and the Trump admin. And yes, NADER FLIPPED. LOL.
24. This is why flipping people matters so much, bc Nader has been providing direct evidence of all this to Mueller. And HE WAS THERE and he has multiple witnesses, meaning there's "nowhere to run to baby, and nowhere to hide" for Prince, Trump jr. et al.
25. Reminder: Zamel's companies ALSO have ties to Russia. One of his firms had previously worked for Oleg DERIPASKA (duh) and Dmitry Rybolovlev (the fertilizer king who bought the Florida Trump mansion for DOUBLE the market price only to NEVER live there & tear it down).
26. "Mr. Nader’s visits to Russia and the work Mr. Zamel’s companies did for the Russians have both been a subject of interest to the special counsel’s investigators, according to people familiar with witness interviews." Nooo, you don't say?
27. So on Aug 3, 2016 when the meeting between Nader, Zamel, Prince and Don Jr. took place, Nader and Zamel were together at a Midtown Manhattan hotel and received the call from Prince summoning them. WHen they arrived, STEPHEN MILLER was in Jr's office too. Oh, A TREASON BASH!
28. Prince opened the meeting by telling Jr. "we are working hard for your father" (Jesus, who gave NYT all this? They're clearly eager to put out ALL the deets.) Prince then introduced Nader as an old friend with deep ties to Arab leaders (no kidding).
29. 😂😂😂 NYT has PHOTOS of Nader posing with Crown princes of Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, that he showed Jr. to underscore the point that the princes are "his friends". Well, sounds like this came straight from Nader then? LOL.
30. Nader told Jr. that the crown princes saw Trump as a strong leader (yeah the leader of liars! BIG time!) that would "fill the ME power vacuum left by Obama" and he & his friends would be glad to support Trump "as much as they could", per NYT.
31. Zamel instead laid out the capabilities of his online media company. Unclear whether he referred to the proposals his company had already prepared. Nader then invited Don Jr. to meet with a Saudi prince. Jr was all "nah, thanks". this is priceless.
32. After about half an hour, everyone exchanged business cards. Well yeah, it doesn't take that long to agree on a common goal. Note: Zamel's company plan involved using thousands of FAKE social media accounts to promote Trump's candidacy on FB. Oh, JUST LIKE RUSSIANS?
33. "There were concerns inside the company, Psy-Group, about the plan's legality". YA THINK?
I am LOL bc the NYT actually PUBLISHED one of the Nader photos with the crown prince of Saudi Arabia. As in "WE HAVE RECEIPTS, despite what you're saying, Saudi Arabia spokesperson."
34. Also this Psy-Group Zamel company consulted an American law firm and was told "well ya know, we appreciate your eagerness to help but see, it is a tad ILLEGAL if any NON-American was involved in the effort." Guess they got the message when they saw Mueller's RU indictments.
35. New detail on what Mueller has done re: Zamel is that his team has worked with Israeli police to SEIZE the computers of one of Zamel's companies, which is currently in liquidation. Oh that karma. She is a beeyotch.
36. This Zamel shady dude has links to a BUNCH of companies and in Dec. 2016, Nader turned to an internet company linked to him, WhiteteKnight, to purchase a presentation demonstrating the impact of social media campaigns on Trump's victory. What a COINCIDENCE. LOL
37. And for the final kicker, which we already knew re: Nader, BOTH Zamel AND Nader visited WH after the inauguration, meeting with Kushner and Bannon (Nader also had contacts with Flynn).
38. Nader was shopping an "Iran sabotage plan" to forge them to permanently give up their nuclear program. Nader reportedly tried to persuade Kushner to endorse the plan to Crown Prince Mohammed in person on a trip to Riyadh. No Georgie, Jared only cares about MONEY for his co.
39. Anyway this entire story has been told to Mueller by Nader himself, so the only point of disclosing it is to show the public how much DIRT there is involving Kushner, Don Jr. etc that Mueller has STRAIGHT FROM SOURCE.
40. The short for this is: It smells like treason all around Don Jr., Kushner and the entire Trump gang. And Saudi Arabia, UAE and a firm owned by an Israeli, specializing in social media manipulation, may have coordinated with Russia in illegal efforts to influence the election.
41. Bc Nader FLIPPED and he has has direct ties to Russia, travelled to Moscow on behalf of the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, organized the meeting in the Seycheles between Erik Prince and Putin's cabana boy re: back channel with Russia for the Trump admin, etc? Mueller has it ALL.
42. It is a matter of WHEN, my friends, not IF. The matter is WHEN Mueller decides that it's time to unleash a bunch of indictments, not IF he will. I know it's hard to sit and wait, but this news? Is great for us and awful for Trump. Fear not: #MuellerISComing. /END.
