1. 🇷🇺🤝🤡 Ok folks - You asked for it, time for another ARTEM KLYUSHIN/DONALD TRUMP Check-in!

New here? A quick background summary follows.

In the know? Skip the intro + scroll down to Tweet “2.”

Who is Artem Klyushin? He’s one Putin’s Trump Handlers, specifically on Twitter.

When Donald Trump married Soviet Czech, Ivana in 1977, he was the perfect asset target: greedy, immoral, power-hungry, deeply insecure and easily tricked via flattery. The Russians first flew him and Ivana to Moscow in 1987 with many more trips to come.

Flash forward to 2013...

Over the years, Russia rescued Donald financially and filled his towers w/oligarchs and mobsters eager to wash their stolen graft. Trump never asks where the money comes from!

The kids spent summers in Czechoslovakia, and traveled to Russia in 2006. They must understand Russian.

2012 - Congress passes The Magnitsky Act placing severe sanctions on Russia as well as freezing their Western assets. (See Panama Papers + Sergei Magnitsky.)

Putin is furious! He blames Hillary Clinton, specifically. Putin retaliates by ending orphanage adoptions by Westerners.

2013: Time to activate the asset!Donald and Putin’s Trump Handlers secretly meet in Las Vegas (June) and Moscow (Nov) to plan Trump’s 2016 Campaign.

Cambridge Analytica and Russian bot farms get to work! Russians begin promoting Trump on SM.

Enter ARTEM KLYUSHIN...

2013: Putin paid Donald $20M to bring his pageant to Moscow. (No prying ears!) Artem Klyushin was married to Alferova Yulya.

Pics: Artem and Emin Agalarov. Rob Goldstone in the mix.

🚨ALFEROVA WAS IN THE WHITE HOUSE FILMING THE SIGNING CEREMONY! Screenshot from her IG video:

Artem Klyushin’s been tweeting Trump directly from the get-go, providing Donald w/Russia’s POV (demands?) and promoting big GOP candidates such as Ted Cruz. He’s also been present at events!

Klyushin knows about Putin/Trump meetings BEFORE the White House announces them to US.

2. Recently, Artem Klyushin’s been tweeting mainly about the G20, but this one I found most disturbing:

“Trump decided to disperse all the intelligence officers from his protocol and GET ALL THE INFO FIRSTHAND - PRESIDENT PUTIN.”

Get. All. The. Info. Firsthand - Pres. Putin.

3. On 9/26/19, in addition to letting us know our POTUS gets his foreign policy advice from the leader of an official enemy state, Klyushin also tells us, Russia is quite happy that the Chief of Protocol of the US, Sean Lawler, was suspended.

WHY was Putin 😎 cool with this??

4. Via @business @thedailybeast, Trump never liked Chief of Protocol, Sean Lawler. Prior to his mtg w/Putin at the G20, Lawler was suspended for conduct, specifically, carrying a whip around the office and intimidating staff. Sounds like an appropriate firing, but the timing...

5. Also on June 26, 2019, Artem Klyushin announces that the meeting between “Russian Pres. Vladimir Putin and his American counterpart Donald Trump” will take place in Osaka on Friday the 28th at 2pm local time.

For someone who’s “just a regular citizen” that’s pretty detailed.

6. On 6/26/19 Artem Klyushin also discusses Vladimir Putin’s plans to honor Russian military graduates. Fine. Congrats.

The odd part is that he pairs this tweet with a photo of Trump and Putin shaking hands. WHY? It wasn’t a mistake because he retweets this later the next day.

7. Then Artem Klyushin posts a series of rather bizarre tweets.

“None of your business #Trump2020 #KAGA2020” - None of your biz?? What?

A sheepish (secret?) blurry video of Trump during an interview.

Then a tweet celebrating Donnie leaving for the G20 in Osaka. 👋

8. In addition to the bizarro tweets above, Klyushin posts the FAKE video that our unconcerned with truth, Liar-in-Chief posts on his page. @TIME quickly fact-checks Lyin’ Don - but of course, Artem does not. Gotta wonder if the animation was created by a Russian Troll Farm??

9. 6/19/19 Klyushin posts “A map of the main military bases and facilities in the Middle East, where Washington is...announcing the deployment of 1,000 additional troops in the region. Suddenly anyone interested.”

🚨Putin warns war with Iran would be “catastrophic.” Agreed.

10. SIDEBAR: A friend just returned from 3 weeks in Iran. She said inflation was so bad, food cost as much as a house. People are starving!

She said the govt. is losing power and is provoking a war to divert blame away from the govt. and onto an enemy. War would be catastrophic!

11. On 6/19/19 Klyushin posts:

“The powers of the Acting Head of the US State Dept. of Defense Shanahan will cease on 6/23/19...the post will be occupied by US Army Sec. ESPER -

Welcome to the new wonderful world.”

WHY is Russia PLEASED with Mark Esper??

12. Why is RUSSIA and Pres. Bone Spurs pleased w/Mark Esper??
