Wow. AG William Barr met in July with Dmytro Firtash's lawyers dIGenova/Toensing to discuss his case


Wow. AG William Barr met in July with Dmytro Firtash's lawyers dIGenova/Toensing to discuss his case. That's roughly the same timeframe when Trump/Giuliani were asking Zelenskyy to work w Barr on conspiracy theories about Ukraine's role in the 2016 election and the Bidens. 1/2




After taking on Firtash’s case, Toensing and diGenova secured a rare face-to-face meeting with Attorney General William P. Barr and other Justice Department officials. Barr declined to intercede.

While being on call for Fox News.

So they worked for both Trump and Firtash? The sanctioned indicted oligarch?

Trump gets away with everything, I know, but it sure seems like this has to sink him. I hope this becomes part of the impeachment.

What does it all mean? I'm having trouble keeping everything in my head, all the connections and interactions.

Goddam fixers for decades now. Pure poison.

And now their son works for Barr in the DoJ. Brady Toensing. (I think that's his first name) Position and duties unknown.

So...it doesn’t take an Unstable Moron to see how that authority can be abused most profitably, even if it is treason.
