DNC Contractor Solicited Trump Dirt From Ukraine
TTN
The Ukranian Embassy has confirmed that a DNC contractor attempted to solicit dirt on President Trump in 2016.
According to The Hill:
The boomerang from the Democratic Party’s failed attempt to connect Donald Trump to Russia’s 2016 election meddling is picking up speed, and its flight path crosses right through Moscow’s pesky neighbor, Ukraine. That is where there is growing evidence a foreign power was asked, and in some cases tried, to help Hillary Clinton.
In its most detailed account yet, the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington says a Democratic National Committee (DNC) insider during the 2016 election solicited dirt on Donald Trump’s campaign chairman and even tried to enlist the country's president to help.
In written answers to questions, Ambassador Valeriy Chaly's office says DNC contractor Alexandra Chalupa sought information from the Ukrainian government on Paul Manafort’s dealings inside the country, in hopes of forcing the issue before Congress.
Chalupa later tried to arrange for Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to comment on Manafort’s Russian ties on a U.S. visit during the 2016 campaign, the ambassador said.
The embassy reportedly considered the request for information an inappropriate solicitation of interference in the U.S. election. The embassy also only thought of the subject as a Ukranian-American activist and not a contractor for the DNC, which they later learned.
