This article points out that her presence in the
United States alone ought to be the source of suspicion, that not only
is the Trump-Russian collusion narrative suspect, but the real inquiry

2015, but given a rather extraordinary parole by the Obama
administration to assist preparation for a client subject to an asset
forfeiture by the Justice Department. She could not be in the United States unless someone who answered
directly to the President of the United States said: We are going to
let her in. She is working on something special, so we are going to let
her in.
