Is secret Russian money influencing American politics and policy? From me, Dan Friedman, and Hannah Levintova.

How the case of arrested FBI agent Charles McGonigal is tied to a Russia-linked influence effort

It's all about a mysterious shell company, a top GOP operative, Albania, and lots of money.

@DavidCorn Is secret Russian money influencing American politics and policy? Not only "yes," but Russia has literally been at war with us for years using IO and we have done nothing of particular consequence about it. It's not going to stop because half our politicians want it that way, and the other half want to pretend we're fine.
