Is Trump Advisor Steve Schwarzman The Missing Link In The Rosneft Scandal?

In recent days, a great deal of media attention has been paid to Trump’s National Security Advisor General Michael Flynn for his possibly illegal discussions with the Kremlin prior to Inauguration Day in which he may have projected the Trump administration’s intention to lift sanctions on Russia once Trump assumed office. However, the real story here may in fact be Schwarzman.
After weeks of sifting through financial disclosures and filing records, a group of concerned citizens investigating Trump’s ties to Russia has uncovered evidence to suggest that the two companies involved in the Rosneft deal have ties to the Koch Brothers and Donald Trump himself. Indeed, Schwarzman’s Blackstone Group may now hold a stake in Rosneft, Russia’s government-owned oil company that famously sold 19.5% of it’s stock to two investors this past December: the first was Glencore, to which evidence suggests the Koch Brothers are connected, and the second, a mysterious Qatar-based nest doll of shell corporations, which evidence suggests is ultimately owned by Schwarzman.
Schwarzman’s possible connection to Rosneft puts Mr. Trump dangerously close to allegations brought forth in the controversial Russian dossier that suggested he was offered a 19 percent stake in the oil company in exchange for lifting American sanctions against Russia. If Donald Trump was involved with the Rosneft deal it would constitute a high crime of treason worthy of impeachment and have deeper ramifications about Trump’s knowledge with regards to cyber interference in the presidential election.

I've just started following NotMyPresident at Twitter that has been posting documents and trying to link Trump to the Rosneft deal.
I don't know who it is and how valid the account is but it's interesting nonetheless.
On edit: NotMyPresident is Marcus Carlsson but I'm not sure what he does for a living. He along with others mentioned in the article are citizen investigators.

This article was written based on citizen investigators posting on twitter. Many have documents and are pulling down older news articles and piecing things together.
NEW UPDATE: Yikes! This is one of the citizen journalists.

We need some kind of chart displaying all this, because I can't keep all these names straight with who-did-what!
