I searched “Moyers” and nothing came up, so FYI:
While searching for Trump/Russia timelines, I found a fairly comprehensive one here on Bill Moyer’s site posted on July 11, 2017, by Steven Harper:
Investigative reporters are fleshing out the Trump/Russia timeline. To keep everything in one location, here’s an updated summary (so far).
Check it out. Apparently Trump has known Manafort since the 1980s, and Russians may have been laundering through him for decades. This timeline was eye opening for me because it exposes how long Trump has known several key players.
The recent Alfa Bank diary by notdrinkingtherightwingkoolaid got me thinking about timelines, hence the Google find at the Moyers site. The Harper timeline currently does not have the Alfa Bank details. In regards to the Alfa Bank diary, a March 10, 2017, CNN article put the Trump/Alfa Bank server communications as occurring:
Internet data shows that last summer, a computer server owned by Russia-based Alfa Bank repeatedly looked up the contact information for a computer server being used by the Trump Organization -- far more than other companies did, representing 80% of all lookups to the Trump server.
[snip]
From May 4 until September 23, the Russian bank looked up the address to this Trump corporate server 2,820 times -- more lookups than the Trump server received from any other source.
In addition, Tea Pain in an April 3, 2017 post, discusses an additional connection with Spectrum Health:
Building on the data analysis by @Conspirator0 on Twitter, Tea Pain has stumbled onto a possible “signal in the noise” that opens a window into the data-swappin’ shenanigans going on between Trump Tower, Spectrum Health and Russia’s Alfa Bank during the election.
Spectrum Health, owned by Michigan’s powerful Devos family, attempted to explain the IP activity as “Voice over IP traffic”, whereas Alfa Bank offered an even more exotic explanation that “hackers attempted to make it look like we contacted Trump Tower.”
The data traffic, when analyzed, tells a very different story, a story of automated, orchestrated data sharing among multiple sites for a strategic end.
From the same CNN story above:
Together, Alfa and Spectrum accounted for 99% of the lookups.
I googled what was going on around May 4th, 2016. On May 3rd, Trump won Indiana, Cruz bowed out, and Reince Priebus tweeted Trump was the presumptive nominee.
en.wikipedia.org/…
Cruz lost Indiana by a wide margin to Trump (53% to 37% with Kasich at 8%) and subsequently dropped out of the race. As a result, Reince Priebus, Republican National Committee chairman, tweeted that Trump was the presumptive nominee in the GOP. The next day, Kasich also suspended his campaign, leaving Trump as the only candidate in the race. Despite his endorsement of Cruz, Mike Pence went on to become Trump's running mate.
Thus the internet communications started when Trump’s path was clear. Yes, yes, speculation, etc., but hopefully Mueller has the evidence.
The Trump Jr meeting hopefully has exposed the scandal enough to unravel it. It is truly scary how corrupt it may be, and I can only hope our institutions are strong enough to investigate and prosecute it fully. If it is true and swept under the rug, the USA isn’t coming back from this ever the same. IOKIYAR could truly take down our Democracy in the end.
