DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Is it, then, plausible that Ryan Routh, who was deeply involved in Ukrainian volunteer operations, was telling the truth... That one of the most powerful Senate committees gave him a full two hours of their time?

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Think carefully about what this means.
The Helsinki Commission is non-FOIA-able. It is not required to keep any records. What happens there, stays there.
They actively engaged in "crowdsourcing" the victory there and Parker flew there many times to assist Ukraine.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Per Parker, when the Ukranian war started, the Commission shifted its focus entirely to achieving a total victory for Ukraine.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Parker, the policy advisor who drew a knife in the presence of Capitol officers and became ultimately shielded in Congress, was a key person in pushing the Magnitsky Act. He was pushed by a foreign backer, Bill Browder, via unethical gifts.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - The Commission's structure is unusual. 21 commissioners serve on it: 9 senators, 9 House members, and 3 officials appointed by the President. It holds hearings, issues reports, sends delegations abroad.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Congress wanted a mechanism to hold the Soviet Union's feet to the fire, so it created the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, known as the Helsinki Commission.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - Why is this important?
In 1975, the United States signed the Helsinki Accords, an agreement among nations pledging to respect human rights and the free movement of people and ideas across Cold War borders.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - The ties between Helsinki Commission and volunteer fighting in Ukraine go deep. Ryan Wesley Routh told the New York Times in 2023 he met with the Helsinki Commission "for two hours."
A congressional aide told Semafor the panel had "no record" of the meeting - a non-denial.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - That same month the investigation ended, April 2024, Paul Massaro was appointed Staff Director of the Helsinki Commission. The staffer who co-hosted the foreign fighter briefing and was accused of glorifying Ukranian Nazis is now one of the Commission's top staff officials.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - According to investigative records, a previous chief of staff warned about Parker in a 2020 memo and again in 2021. An FBI referral was approved. But Senators Cardin (D-MD, retired) and Wicker (R-MS) obstructed the investigation.

DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican - The Chairman, Joe Wilson investigated (yes, @RepLuna 's complaint today). His letter requested Parker's termination, citing the cases of Jonathan Pollard and Charles McGonigal as precedent requiring investigation. November 1, 2023.
