Two men who reportedly have assisted Rudy Giuliani in his efforts to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden's family have been arrested and were charged Thursday in connection with an alleged scheme to circumvent federal laws against foreign campaign donations.
Two associates of Parnas and Fruman, David Correira and Andrey Kukushkin, were indicted along with Parnas and Fruman on Thursday. William Sweeney, FBI assistant director in charge of the New York Field office, said at the news conference that Kukushkin was taken into custody in San Francisco, while Correia had yet to be arrested.
Additionally, Parnas and Fruman allegedly made a series of illegal straw donations that included a $325,000 donation to the pro-Trump Super PAC America First Action, and prosecutors allege that the two violated the law by falsely reporting the origin of those funds as under the name of"Global Energy Producers."
The indictment doesn't name the congressman, but the description matches ABC News' reporting that Rep. Pete Sessions, R-Texas, had benefited from $3 million in backing from the super PAC during the 2018 cycle, and that during the same month that Parnas raised funds for Sessions, Sessions wrote a letter calling for Yovanovitch's immediate removal.
At the news conference, Sweeney underscored why campaign finance laws exist in the first place, and the overall importance of deterring foreign interference in U.S. elections. “In May 2018, America First Action received a $325,000 contribution and donor form from Global Energy Producers. In July 2018, a complaint was filed with the Federal Election Commission concerning this contribution," The statement reads."There is also separate litigation pending in Florida that concerns these funds.
'In the darkness it comes and in the darkness it goes away; also its name is lost in the darkness.' This phrase describes Rudy Giuliani, he has always been an evil politician in the eyes of the people and of God. This is the defender of the corrupt Donald Trump. Evils Lawyer.
