In the piece about Butina's connections to American political operatives and agencies, the Times reported:
--- In an April 2016 email, [Butina] discussed connecting a Russian nuclear scientist with Representative Dana Rohrabacher, Republican of California, who was visiting Russia at the time. Weeks before the presidential election, she went with J. D. Gordon, a Trump campaign aide, to see the rock band Styx.
She even managed to get a photo with Donald Trump Jr., the president’s son, whom she met at a 2016 dinner hosted by the N.R.A. in Louisville, Ky. Separately, she helped [Russian government official, Aleksandr P.] Torshin send a message to the Trump campaign proposing that Donald J. Trump meet President [Vladimir] Putin (the campaign turned them down).
“It was very clear that she was a networker and a bit of a name-dropper,” said [granddaughter of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Susan] Eisenhower, who played down her own encounter with Ms. Butina. “She’s the kind of person — and you see them in Washington and all over the place — people who have to get their picture taken with anybody of any moderate importance.” ---
