Feds investigating Donald Trump for LIV Golf ties

As federal prosecutors continue to investigate former United States President Donald J. Trump regarding his handling of classified documents, it appears that they’re digging into something else as well: his relationship with the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour.

According to a report from the New York Times on Thursday afternoon, the feds have opened a subpoena pertaining to Trump’s involvement with the LIV Golf tour.

“One of the previously unreported subpoenas to the Trump Organization sought records pertaining to Mr. Trump’s dealings with a Saudi-backed professional golf venture known as LIV Golf, which is holding tournaments at some of Mr. Trump’s golf resorts,” the New York Times wrote on Thursday.

“It is unclear what bearing Mr. Trump’s relationship with LIV Golf has on the broader investigation, but it suggests that the prosecutors are examining certain elements of Mr. Trump’s family business,” the New York Times continued.

The LIV Golf Tour is just money laundering by the Saudis to enrich Trump and his family for the Intel that they gave them during and after the administration was over. For Trump it is also a way to stick it to the PGA who removed the PGA Championship from Bedminster after Trumps comments about Charlottesville. They may get Trump.but they won't get the Saudis because any attempt to tar the Saudis will cause a sudden decrease in oil production. We have never punished the Saudis for thier role in 9-11 and I doubt we ever will. The Royal Saudi family is the one group of people that I truly despise because they got lucky because some British guy discovered oil in the desert and a bunch of Nomadic Bedouins became Masters of the World.
