This needs to be connected here too

So, Klyushin appears to be claiming that Trump would not be in the White House today without his assistance, and in return they were waiting for Trump to drop the sanctions against Russia.

To be honest, I have no idea if Klyushin is serious, or kidding, or what. But there are an awful lot of pictures of him with Trump, his Twitter feed is full of tweets saying how great Trump is, and he has resources and connections such that he could have plausibly have at least made an attempt at swaying a U.S. election. There was obviously a deal to build a Trump tower in Moscow, involving Klyushin, when Trump said there were no deals. If that’s not worth investigating, I don’t know what is.

Kremlin Propagandist Boasted of His Hacking Efforts, Strongly Implied Colluding With Trump Team in Facebook Posts
A former Duma deputy with close ties to Putin made the posts less than a week after Donald Trump won the election.
On November 12th 2016, just days after Donald Trump was elected President, a Russian man named Konstantin Rykov posted on Facebook detailing how, “Donald and I decided to free America and make it great again.” In a two part series that reads like a fantasy novel, Rykov illustrated in detail the four year effort to elect Trump.

Excerpts of the Facebook posts are below. Translations via Google Translate and Lorenz Cohen:

Part one

It’s time for wonderful stories. I’ll tell you about (now it’s possible) how Donald Trump and I decided to free America and make it great again. This took us as much as 4 years and 2 more days.
It all started at night from 6 to 7 November 2012.
[Trump] lifted his plane to the sky and flew between New York and DC, calling the whole world through his twitter — to start a march on Washington!
Without a moment’s thought, I wrote him a replay, which sounded like this in Russian: “I’m ready.” What should I do? “
Suddenly! There was a thin squeak of warning in the DM.
It was a message from Donald Trump. More precisely a picture. In the picture he was sitting in the armchair of his jet, smiling cheerfully and showing me the thumb of his right hand.
Part two

What was our idea with Donald Trump?
For four years and two days .. it was necessary to get to everyone in the brain and grab all possible means of mass perception of reality. Ensure the victory of Donald in the election of the US President. Then create a political alliance between the United States, France, Russia (and a number of other states) and establish a new world order.
Our idea was insane, but realizable.
In order to understand everything for the beginning, it was necessary to “digitize” all possible types of modern man.
Donald decided to invite for this task — the special scientific department of the “Cambridge University.”
British scientists from Cambridge Analytica suggested making 5,000 existing human psychotypes — the “ideal image” of a possible Trump supporter. Then .. put this image back on all psychotypes and thus pick up a universal key to anyone and everyone.
Then it was only necessary to upload this data to information flows and social networks. And we began to look for those who would have coped with this task better than others.
At the very beginning of the brave and romantic [story] was not very much. A pair of hacker groups, civil journalists from WikiLeaks and political strategist Mikhail Kovalev.
The next step was to develop a system for transferring tasks and information, so that no intelligence and NSA could burn it.
