      Butina's lawyers argue that claims against her are "a war drum based on pure fiction" and that she was just "networked for her own entrepreneurial gain." https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4782670-USA-v-Butina-Memo-on-Motion-for-Bond-Review.html …pic.twitter.com/UlImRfj5z1

      So, did we know this? Appears — at least by Maria Butina's lawyer's understanding — that Paul Erickson had a voluntary interview with the FBI in South Dakota in June.pic.twitter.com/PHANuJlhbg

          In Butina's case, Judge Chutkan asks the parties for any reasons why she shouldn't issue a gag order on parties in the case, calls for response by 9/9. That and Butina's bond conditions request will be addressed at a hearing on 9/10.pic.twitter.com/pvJgsu7jQb

          Paul Erickson is a conservative political operative who had an affair w/ Maria Butina; he was also the conduit btw. Butina & the NRA. The NRA funneled $$ from Russia to the GOP in 2015-16, and Erickson and Butina made it happen. Now, it appears Erickson has talked to the FBI.
