Just one more coincidence...
From the original item:
That work was handled by a former KGB agent named Gennady Vasilenko, a Cold War adversary-turned-friend of Wickham’s co-founder, Jack Platt, a retired CIA officer who passed away in January.
Vasilenko declined to comment.
But Wickham said “Gennady has very good contacts in Russia.”
Wickham and the RNC denied, though, that the firm did any work related to Russia for the RNC, and Wickham brushed off as coincidence the timing of the payments. They were made between May and August 2016, as Russia was emerging as a liability for the GOP nominee Donald Trump and his presidential campaign, including its then-chairman Paul Manafort.
