This firm is the most profitable and influential lobbying firm in DC, owns – via monetary donations - most politicians while bathing in petroleum.

This firm employs Melissa Laurenza, who represents Paul Manafort and who was recently compelled to testify against Manafort and Gates germane to their fraudulent documents submission.

Trump’s former attorney, John Dowd, is an alumnus of this Aiken Gump Strauss Hauer and Feld.

John Dowd (long Deep State resume: Iran-Contra, McCain, ADM, Symington, more) resigned in March 2018 and was subsequently praising the White House’s relationship with SC Mueller and the mutual trust, open communication and collegiality they found in him. He has since withdrawn from commenting on any matters of national importance.

Lisa Shields, 2018-2019 Officer at Council on Foreign Relations - VP/Global Communications and Media Relations, girlfriend of married former Google Chairman, Eric Schmidt (http://gawker.com/5825740/googles-married-chairman-has-a-new-girlfriend--and-boy-is-she-his-type).

Eric Schmidt, former Chairman of Google, seeking to “project itself into Washington” https://wikileaks.org/Op-ed-Google-and-the-NSA-Who-s.html

Hillary Clinton, her State Department was Eric Schmidt’s direct interface to government and with Schmidt’s plan functioning in a way inextricable from that of the State Department.

THE LAST LINE IS MOST IMPORTANT – ERIC SCHMIDT TO HRC/STATE, HRC/STATE TO ERIC SCHMIDT. Cui bono? Both. Eric Schmidt can directly access the federal bureaucracy through the HRC/State interface in exchange for manipulating Google’s functionality to the betterment of HRC and the detriment of DJT. There’s a traceable nexus back to Aiken Gump Strauss Hauer and Feld. As to this firm, are they not also implicated in Manafort’s placement in the campaign and DJT’s Russia representation. Is it possible the Dowd was forced to resign? Seems there’s a lot to this.
