Trump business partner accused of involvement in Dutch-based money laundering scheme

https://zembla.vara.nl/dossier/uitzending/trump-business-partner-accused-of-involvement-in-dutch-based-money-laundering-scheme

>snip<

"The American real estate development company Bayrock, through which Donald Trump constructed hotels and apartment complexes, used Dutch letter box companies in a network suspected of being involved in money laundering. A ZEMBLA investigation suggests that Bayrock siphoned off $1.5 million dollars by setting up a corporate structure in the Netherlands in 2007. In New York, Bayrock also stands accused of large-scale tax fraud. This incriminating information could place Donald Trump in an extremely difficult position, claims attorney F. Oberlander, who is prosecuting Bayrock on behalf of the State of New York: “The maximum jail term would be 30 years. So you’re in really serious trouble.”

In 2005, Donald Trump became 18% owner of an hotel-condominium known as Trump SoHo. Bayrock, the other owner, is accused of perpetrating fraud on a grand scale through, among other things, Trump SoHo. According to US law, this means that Trump is jointly liable for Bayrock’s criminal activities. Oberlander concludes:
“Anybody running a business through a pattern of crime is guilty of racketeering. Anybody knowing what they’re doing and are helping is guilty of racketeering conspiracy. They go to jail.”


How long can this type of shit go on without consequences for the shitgibbon?

would probably reveal that the Orange Shitrocket is up to his five chins in Russian debt. Since "Mr.Honesty" won't disclose his income tax returns we'll never know, unless someone subpoenas his dimpled, sagging ass. Even then I'd expect an "executive privilege" court battle (which he'd lose since these tax records were from BEFORE he became pResident), but he - like Nixon - would fight tooth and nail to suppress them.

The first step is getting someone to subpoena the S.O.B. DIRECTOR COMEY! It's time for you to atone for getting this piece of human garbage elected in the first place.
