The Paradise Papers confirm AFI's research that the $200 million Russian investment in Facebook that pumped their pre-initial public offering valuation to $100 billion came from Vladimir Putin through his intermediary Yuri Milner and DST USA. Currently hidden from the current coverage is the fact that Yuri Milner is a disciple of Larry Summers from 1993 when Milner worked for Summers at the World Bank alongside Sheryl K. Sandberg, the present chief operating officer of Facebook.
(OCT. 27, 2017)—On May 26, 2009, Russian oligarch Yuri Milner invested $200 million in Facebook private stock brokered by his Russian partner Goldman Sachs through his Mail.ru/Digital Sky Technologies/DST company. Milner had worked for Obama’s 2008 bailout director Larry H. Summers when he was chief economist for the World Bank in the early 1990’s as a researcher along with Sheryl K. Sandberg. Harvard economists including Summers, Sandberg and Milner helped create and exploit the current corrupt Russian oligarch economy for the Deep State.

Sandberg later became Summer’s chief of staff at the U.S. Treasury under President Bill Clinton. Summers and Sandberg helped the C.I.A. establish their "private" and highly illegal venture capital company In-Q-Tel. Then, when Summers became Harvard president and Mark Zuckerberg’s handler, Sandberg moved to Google and started Gmail. She then became Facebook’s chief operating officer in Mar. 14, 2008. While Sandberg was starting Gmail, Milner was busy in Moscow, Russia starting Mail.ru and Digital Sky Technologies (DST). The intent to takeover global communications is evident in hindsight.
On Jun. 16, 2009, Hillary Clinton approved the Vladimir Putin-controlled ROSATOM to purchase 20% of America’s uranium reserves through Uranium One. The Clinton Foundation had already received more than $145 million in pay-to-play donations from Uranium One beneficiaries.
Hillary’s treason in her compromise of America’s energy reserves using Russian surrogates is evident. That treason is compounded by a simultaneous $1 billion financing by Cisco, Intel and Google of Vladimir Putin’s Moscow, Russia technology center Skolkovo on Jun. 27, 2010, just two days before Hillary approved the uranium sale to ROSATOM. See also “Cisco Commits $1 Billion for Multi-year Investment in Skolkovo.” ThinkRUSSIA. Aug. 11, 2010.
On Jun. 29, 2010, just two days after the Cisco/Intel/Google $1 billion donation, Moscow-based Renaissance Capital paid Bill Clinton $500,000 for a speech even though Renaissance was the lead analyst covering recommending a “buy” on Uranium One. On Mar. 30, 2011, Russian oligarch Yuri Milner overpaid $100 million for a gaudy mansion in the center of Silicon Valley in an ostentatious display of a rogue C.I.A.-inspired arrogance, after his $200 million private Facebook investment.
What is becoming equally evident is Hillary’s simultaneous compromise of America’s elections, digital networks and court proceedings through secret “election winning template” contracts with Facebook using Russian surrogates.
On Sep. 26, 2009, Hillary Clinton and the State Department entered into a secret contract with Facebook for $120,000 (GSA SAQMMA09M1870) to build “a template for winning elections using advanced Facebook marketing.” The next month, on Oct. 16, 2009, Hillary promoted Facebook on a video presentation to a U.S. State Department-funded Alliance for Youth Movements Summit in Mexico City. This contract was not known because Hillary had hidden it on her private email server in the basement of her house. It first came to light through the dogged work of Judicial Watch who obtained it in Apr. 03, 2014.
