How the Case of Arrested FBI Agent Charles McGonigal Is Tied to a Russia-Linked Influence Effort
Feb. 9, 2023 -- Mother Jones
It’s all about a mysterious shell company, a top GOP operative, Albania, and lots of money.
It was shocking news: Charles McGonigal, a former counterintelligence chief for the FBI, was arrested for his alleged role in two separate schemes. In one, he purportedly accepted $225,000 from an Albanian American businessman, while he was still in the FBI, and did favors for that businessman and Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama.
In the other, McGonigal, after he retired in 2018, allegedly provided investigative services to Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, who was sanctioned in 2018 for assisting the global “malign” activities of Putin’s regime. McGonigal’s indictments raise a boatload of questions and has spurred the bureau to scrutinize his actions when he was in charge of monitoring and thwarting the intelligence efforts of foreign powers (including Russia) aimed at the United States. In spy-movie parlance, the FBI will want to know when did he go bad (presuming he did go bad).

Does it involve czarina's vagina shaped glass building? No, wait, I think that's in Baku.
