Indicted Giuliani Ally Has Money-Tied Republicans Seeking Cover...
The Justice Department on Oct. 10 unsealed an indictment of Parnas for using a straw donor and laundering foreign money into U.S. elections. Federal prosecutors claim he and his Fraud Guarantee co-owner, Igor Fruman, used the shell company Global Energy Producers to funnel $325,000 in foreign cash into America First Action, a Trump super-PAC.
Federal records show that the total donations from Parnas, Fruman, Global Energy Producers and an alter ego identified by prosecutors exceeded $620,000.

Russian money allegedly donated to Nevada GOP candidates...
Four men charged with illegally funneling foreign money into U.S. elections allegedly tried to obtain marijuana business licenses in Nevada and other states, according to an indictment filed in federal court in New York.
The men also made donations to two Nevada Republican political candidates in the fall of 2018, the indictment shows.
A check of Nevada campaign contributions made by one of the indicted men, Igor Fruman, shows he contributed the maximum $10,000 each to Adam Laxalt and Wesley Duncan, the Republican candidates for governor and attorney general, respectively, last year. The donations were made on Nov. 1, 2018, according to each campaign’s finance records.

#KREMLINKEVIN TRENDS AFTER PEOPLE POINT OUT TOP HOUSE REPUBLICAN KEVIN MCCARTHY TOOK DONATIONS FROM LEV PARNAS
"Here's @GOPLeader Kevin McCarthy lying about how the FBI broke into Trump's campaign, spied on him and tried to cover it up, calling it "a modern-day Watergate," tweeted writer Amee Vanderpool. "The report says the exact opposite-we did look into it, it was discounted. #KremlinKevin."
Other users posted a picture of a $2,700 donation made by Giuliani's associate Lev Parnas to the Kevin McCarthy for Congress campaign.
Federal Election Commission data shows he also made an $11,000 donation to the Protect the House committee that McCarthy helped set up, according to a statement from his spokesperson to CNN.
But the House Minority Leader clarified two months ago that all money donated by Parnas and fellow indicted Giuliani associate Igor Fruman would be given to local charity.
