I want to notify you of a possible PARA Vio Iation on the part of the Breitbart News
Network and/o: Stephen 1331111011, Breithaz t?s executive chail man

1 

BN IS a for-profit company that operates out of 3 Capitol Hill house owned by a
former Egyptian of?cial and member of an Egyptian poh?tical party, Moustafa El-

Gmdy {spellings dif?or}

would be an extraordinarily expensive property to lent, and it IS highly
improbable that BNN is not benefiting from some substantial discount In its leasing
costs; despite heihgorganized as a ?for pro?t BNN like other publications
organized as ?for pro?ts'? 13 very unlikely to have any or subsnaot?zal profit margins
on money to burn on renting this kind of swanky headquarters

Samxdtaheousiy, BN has been prowdmg 115.3th favorable coverage of EI~Gindyc and
articles {ha I: advance his and his pal ty?s agenda .

Jt thus appears that BNN has been disseminating what PARA would regard as
propaganda on behaIf of aforeign principal for ?nanciaI bene?t and not merely as a
?nanciaily 1211 connected source It does not appear that BNN has registered 
WiEh the. 111 reIation to this work This Ioolos him a FARA violation I I

aIso appears that Mr Cindy has heen given a pIatfoxm from whioh to speakat
the New America 3 Foundation, something that seems unlike] ]y to have occurred
without some sort: of financial contribution having oeen made by Gindy As {am
sure you are aware va~rious Washington D. think tanks accept oonh?i-hutions Irom
forexgn governments and simultaneously appear to advance their agendas I am not
gyro whether this kind of thing In the absence of qualifies as a violation
oszARA, but it does notsoem to be In keoping with the spirit of the law

Sea: Chas for detaiis of BNN parties surrounding tho annuaI Conservative; Political
Action Conforence, own site; the New America Foundation/Washington

are site and p1 opercy records should icon?rm the details provided. herein

I hope that the Department oquohco amonal Security Division wiII mveshgate
