Whoever this Russian attorney / rep / whatever was, looks like she met with a bunch of folks while she was here. It was Obama's Justice Dept that reviewed and gave her special approval to enter.

I only gave it an 'if.' But like I said, wide-ranging implications, if true. Like, the whole ball game, right there?

Her client was Denis Katsyv, the son of a Russian transport official and the owner of a real-estate company that, U.S. federal prosecutors alleged, laundered millions in corrupt profits through the purchase of luxury properties in Manhattan, the type of crime that the Trump family has been wrapped up in for decades and for which a mysterious settlement with DOJ was reached in May.

Sigh.

Might be a bit of a stretch. But it's certainly true that Lynch's DOJ let her in and then once her status expired allowed her to stick around longer than intended.
