1996Bill Browder forms company to invest in Russia
The Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act came into being through the actions of Bill Browder, the CEO of Hermitage Capital Management. Hermitage Capital was formed in 1996 for the express purpose of investing in Russia. The firm benefited from the wave of privatization that occurred, ultimately becoming one of the largest foreign investors in Russia. For more background on Bill Browder and Hermitage see here and here.

2005Browder blacklisted from Russia
In 2005, Browder was blacklisted by the Russian government. Browder was expelled from Russia by Putin – his Visa cancelled. This apparently occurred because Hermitage was supporting minority shareholder rights and interfering with flows of cash to corrupt officials. In 2007, Russian police seized computers and documents from Hermitage offices.

2008Browder hires Russian Lawyer Magnitsky to help. Magnitsky killed in Russian prison
Browder hired a Russian lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, to help him determine what was actually occurring. Magnitsky uncovered the misappropriation of $230 million in taxes paid by Hermitage Russian companies. For his efforts, Sergei Magnitsky was jailed by the Russian government in late 2008. Magnitsky would die in jail almost exactly one year later – of beatings suffered at the hands of prison guards.

Oct 2010FBI enough evidence to prove that Rosatom-connected officials were engaged in a global bribery
The FBI said in court documents and in interviews that by 2010 they had gathered enough evidence to prove that Rosatom-connected officials were engaged in a global bribery schedule that included kickbacks and money laundering. FBI officials said the investigation could have prevented the sale of Uranium One, which controlled 20 percent of U.S. uranium supply under U.S. law.

2010Magnitsky Act being formulated in U.S. Would freeze Russian assets of players
Browder petitioned Senators John McCain and Benjamin Cardin in 2010 – his actions ultimately resulting in passage of the Magnitsky Act. In essence, the Magnitsky Act denies Visas and freezes the assets of corrupt Russian officials who are involved in human rights abuses. It has proven to be a real problem for Russian officials – including Vladimir Putin. The Russian government would dearly love to see the Magnitsky Act repealed.		June 29 - Bill gets $500,000 for speech in Moscow
As Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton opposed passage of the Magnitsky Act – a position coinciding with Bill Clinton being paid $500,000 for a Moscow speech on June 29, 2010. While the Magnitsky bill was being formulated, her State Department was asked by lawmakers to deny visas to the Russian officials who were implicated in the Magnitsky matter. Clinton’s State Department denied the request.		As Sec of State Hillary opposes Magnitsky Act and refuses to deny Visas to Russians implicated in Magnitsky matter

Because Uranium One owns mining interests in several states within the US, the deal must be approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment. One agency that has to sign off on the deal is the State Department, where Hillary Clinton is Secretary of State.

Jun 9, 2016Major source to DanchenkoSet up famous Donald Jr. and Manafort meeting at Trump Towers
Which leads us to the meeting between Donald Trump Jr, Jared Kushner, Paul Manafort, Rinat Akhmetshin (a former Russian Intelligence officer and lobbyist) and Natalia Veselnitskaya. Donald Trump Jr. went into the meeting expecting opposition information, only to find Akhmetshin and Veselnitskaya had actually come to lobby for repeal of the Magnitsky Act. A rescinding of the Adoption Ban was mentioned as well. The discussion ended quickly as Trump Jr and Kushner realized the meeting had been set up under false pretenses.

Fusion GPS set up this meeting. And, of course, Fusion GPS is also the firm behind the infamous Trump Dossier.
