just a reminder
After graduating from college, Thiessen moved to Washington, D.C., where he has worked for many years, starting at the lobbying firm Black, Manafort, Stone and Kelly (BMSK) from 1989 to 1993. BMSK is notable as two of the founders and name partners, Paul Manafort and Roger Stone, became convicted felons during the first Trump administration (Manafort was convicted of 8 charges and prosecuted on 10 more to which he admitted guilt, and was later charged with dozens more in NY; Stone was convicted for 7 felonies); both were pardoned by Trump, one of the firm's first clients. 16]

During this time Trump retained BMSK as his primary legal counsel.
I suggest you find out about BMSK.
Because this one goes very deep and will get into Russia. :)
As Black, Manafort & Stone, the firm was one of the first political consulting groups to work for Ronald Reagan's presidential candidacy in 1980, and would later also have extensive connections to the presidential administrations of George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton. Donald Trump was the firm's first client. In 1984 it was renamed to Black, Manafort, Stone and Kelly (BMSK) & associates after Peter G. Kelly was recruited. The firm advised, represented, and lobbied the US Congress on behalf of, numerous foreign governments and heads of state from both representative democracies and unelected dictatorships including dictator Ferdinand Marcos of the Philippines, Mohamed Siad Barre of Somalia, dictator Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire, and Jonas Savimbi of Angola. According to "The Torturers' Lobby", a report published by The Center for Public Integrity, by 1991-1992 their work with dictators brought in $3.3 million in those 2 years.

There’s is where you’ll find the law firm BMSK.
Where you see Trumps Atlantic City you start to see Black, Manifort, Stone, Kelly.
Look at the work BMSK was doing while they represented Trump.
BMSK represented some of the worst authoritarian/dictators in the world and Donald Trump.
Think about that.

This is another one, this is Marc Thiessan, one of WaPo's conservative opinionists (fun fact, Thiessan got his start as a lobbyist for BMSK -- the "M" and "S" stand for Manafort and Stone, yes that Manafort and that Stone). This guy is writing opinions that *serve the conservative project*

WaPo woke up and decided it really needed an unsourced "We all know it's because she's Black" story.
So why didn’t a more electable candidate — of which there are many — throw his or her hat in the ring and seek the Democratic nomination? Simple: If you are a White Democrat — such as Govs. Josh Shapiro (Pa.), Andy Beshear (Ky.), Roy Cooper (N.C.), Tim Walz (Minn.) and Gretchen Whitmer (Mich.), or Sen. Mark Kelly (Ariz.) — with a seemingly bright political future in Democratic politics, why would you get crosswise with Rep. James E. Clyburn (S.C.) and the Congressional Black Caucus by trying to stop the first Black woman from leading a major party ticket? The party of identity politics is never going to pick you over her. And if you try to challenge her, she will play the race card against you — just as she did against Biden in 2019.

To me he's Squash Paddle

Stone is a terrible person.

Black, Manafort, Stone, and Kelly (BMSK).

Later added Lee Atwater, former RNC chair, campaign operative for GHW Bush, and proponent of the GOPee Southern Strategy opposing of the Voting Rights Act.

See: Nixon and Murray Chotiner.

BMSK feigned a split in 1988. Two went to Bush. Other two went to Dukakis, clandestinely obviously.

Manafort and two of the others are portrayed in the 90s film, "Spinning Boris" (Yeltsin).
Classic GOPee under the table tactics.

WaPoの評論家として紹介されているMarc Thiessenは、経歴的には評論家というよりロジャー・ストーンとポール・マナフォートのロビイング企業（BMSK）でキャリアを積み、ジェシー・ヘルムズやラムズフェルドにもブレーンとして仕えた、筋金入りの軍事タカ派みたい。

グアンタナモでやってたようなCIAほかの「強化尋問技術」（＝拷問のこと）を擁護する『Courting Disaster』という著書で名を上げたらしい。クソじゃん

Cosa c’entrano due influencer, diventati milionari insegnando ai maschi come sottomettere le donne, con l’ombra di Putin su un’infrastruttura militare strategica dell’Alleanza Atlantica?

Come l’appalto per una base Nato è stato dato a una compagnia che ha tra i maggiori azionisti Oleg Deripaska.

Donald Trump pardoned a member of a firm that formerly represented him.
BMSK represented Trump back when he owned the Taj Mahal casino.
Trump has known Manafort that long.
It was a conflict of interest for Trump to pardon his former employee who had very clearly broken federal laws.
Manafort's Long History of Dealing With Dictators
Donald Trump's former campaign manager has dealt with many foreign leaders accused of human rights abuses during his decades-long career as a political lobbyist.

So close your eyes, stop your ears
Shut your mouth and never dare
And if it happens here they'll never come for you
Because they'll know you really didn't care

I think Hatebreeders is my favorite track. I remember being in a car with friends (too many people, not enough seatbelts) in 1986-ish, burning up the road between Anchorage and Fairbanks, everyone singing to this song.

An arms dealer from #Lebanon and Manafort’s close friend. Manafort suggested to his firm partners at Black, Manafort, Stone, and Kelly that #AlAssir might help connect their business to clients around the world.

Look up BMSK (Black,Manafort, Stone and Kelly)!
They “consulted” with and for every tin pot despot of the last 40 years!
They along with others you know, brought those “foreign practices” here.
Dubyah cared about Saudi Arabia as much as…Seattle!🤣
Hence, he attacked,…Iraq!
Sad.
