How U.S. taxpayer funds are being funneled back into the pockets of D.C. politicians:
Former Congressman Jim Moran, who of course became a lobbyist after leaving Washington, D.C. Believe it or not one of his new clients about 6 days ago is the Ukranian government. He's receiving $25,000/month for at least a year to lobby his former colleagues to give them more foreign aid in the form of weapons, arms, and billions of taxpayer dollars.

What is so curious is that I actually obtained the letter detailing the agreement between Moran Global Strategies and the Ukrainian Government Ministry showing their terms of work, the payment.

And what is so interesting is that the payment - you can see it right on the screen - is not actually coming from the government Ministry, it's coming from a shady non-profit that basically you can't even find online. As an investigative reporter, I can find almost anything. There is almost no trace of this entity, a very innocuously named "Ukraine Freedom." And that is who is funneling money to this D.C.-based consulting firm. Like I said, a former Democratic member of Congress who is now making at the end of the year what will be 6 figures just lobbying his old colleagues to give Ukraine more taxpayer dollars.
