Liz Truss’ chief of staff questioned by FBI - Election Bribery

[Chomper Higgot]

Liz Truss’ Chief of Staff (she hand picked him for the job) Mark Fullbrook is ‘cooperating’  with the FBI with formal testimony in their investigations into conspiracy to bribe an American politician and influence an election in US Territory Puerto Rico 

 

The target of the investigation is one Julio Martin Herrera Velutini, who is alleged to have paired the bribe through Lobbyists CT Group, for whom Fullbrook was ‘Global Project Officer’ and did meet with the recipient of the bribe.

 

There is no suggestion that the FBI’s target Julio Martin Herrera Velutini bribed the UK Government, though UK Electoral Commission records reveal a company he founded donated £650,604 to the Conservative Party.

 

Perhaps Lizzy would like to review her assertion that she doesn’t need an ethics advisor.

 

Regardless, the PM’s chief of staff caught up in FBI investigation into political bribery and election rigging, and she’s only been in the job two weeks.

Guess who’s not traveling to NY with Truss this week?!:

 

Truss is to meet with Biden while her hand picked Chief of Staff is caught up in an FBI investigation into attempts to rig a US territory election.

 

Perhaps Truss will do the right thing and ask for her Chief of Staff’s  resignation, he’s certainly doing the ‘advisable thing’ by not traveling to NY where his cooperation into the investigation might be more assertively demanded.
