I didn’t realize he was involved with the Steele dossier and ties with the clintons. Does anyone have some good intel on why they might be raiding his home?

Wikipedia (good grief, verify but generally a good start) says he is connected with Paul Manafort which was discovered through the Muelller investigations. He is supposedly a Russian Oligarch, according to various news sources, but I think they are simply conflating the idea that a billionaire must be an oligarch, more research needed there. Anyway, the Sun (shudder, tabloid) reports that In 2018, the Trump administration imposed sanctions on Deripaska. https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/16472649/who-is-russian-billionaire-oleg-deripaska/. However, Forbes reports that in 2019 the sanctions were lifted on the proviso that Deripaska reduce his stake https://www.forbes.com/profile/oleg-deripaska/?sh=58ff841f804c It could be part of the Russia, Russia, Russia madness again, which is unfortunate.
I did a little research as well. I did read that him and Putin were really angry with the clintons at one point but then he was used to pay the Steele guy. Also, trump pardoned him…hhhmmm. I guess these things are so deep we might never know. Thanks for your info.
They are either collecting evidence, or wiping evidence.
Pickem.
