Trump's advisor, Russian born mobster Felix Sater, testifying before congress

Trump said he had no dealings with Russians. Hhhmmmm

His real name is Felix Sheferovsky.

"Sater pleaded guilty to his involvement in a $40 million stock fraud scheme orchestrated by the Russian Mafia"

"He boasted to Cohen about his connections to Vladimir Putin, saying in an email to Cohen on November 13, 2015, "Buddy our boy can become president of the USA and we can engineer it. I will get all of Putins [sic] team to buy in on this. I will manage this process." He also asserted that he had secured financing for the project through the Russian state-owned VTB Bank, which was under sanctions by the United States government."

"In late January 2017, Sater met with Ukrainian politician Andrey Artemenko and Donald Trump's personal lawyer, Michael D. Cohen, at the Loews Regency in Manhattan to discuss a plan to lift sanctions against Russia."

"Sater worked with Michael Cohen, former attorney for Donald Trump, to broker a deal to build a Trump Tower Moscow during the 2015-16 presidential campaign, asserting to Cohen that he could boost Trump’s election prospects through his Russian contacts. He is scheduled to testify publicly before the House Intelligence Committee on March 14, 2019."
