About the Russian speaking rioter - already ID'd

She is the mother of the vice chair of Young Republicans of Oregon




Police records indicate that a Russian-speaking mother and daughter, Yevgeniya and Kristina Malimon, were arrested Wednesday night and charged with unlawful entry and a curfew violation. The Portland, Oregon, women "did enter or attempt to enter" the Capitol building, according to police records, and were arrested after ignoring "at least 3 warnings" from officers to disperse. Neither woman responded to multiple requests for comment from ABC News.

The younger Malimon, 29-year-old Kristina, appears to be the vice chair of the Oregon Young Republicans and appears to own social media accounts filled with pro-Trump content. Prosecutors were asked to provide a Russian language interpreter at Thursday's arraignment of Kristina's mother, Yevgeniya. Both women were released Thursday after pleading not guilty to the charges against them in court.

Yevgeniya Malimon, speaking through the court-appointed interpreter, denied the allegations against her during a hearing on Thursday, saying. "I'm not sure what unlawful entry you are talking about; I didn't enter anything."

Although Russian language, I don't think this is a Putin-Russia connection. Lots of former Soviet-bloc people are anti-communist and super conservative. Kristina says her family was persecuted for being Christian in Moldova.

Considering that Moldova is 93% Orthodox Christian...they were being "persecuted" by other Christians!!

she runs in the right circles to be such. Roger Stone and Jaba Jr? The only thing missing is a NRA membership card.

A budding Maria or Natasha.

I guess the FBI will figure it out.

That's how it's done. The Russians have a long history of knowing everything about everybody.
