A former Managing Trustee of the Democratic National Committee lobbied on behalf of the Russian government’s international investment fund which was recently sanctioned by the United States, The National Pulse can reveal.

The Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) – a sovereign wealth fund established while Vladimir Putin was Prime Minister – was the recent target of sanctions from the Biden White House following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Despite the Biden regime’s move to sanction the fund, The National Pulse can reveal that RDIF previously retained former Democratic National Committee (DNC) Managing Trustee John Raffaelli as its American representative, according to Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) filings.

The trustee in question had donated over half a million dollars to Democratic Party causes, with money earned from Russia lobbying.
