Man, results already? https://thehill.com/homenews/admini...r-sought-to-use-admin-foreign-connections-for Firm founded by Trump inaugural chair sought to use admin, foreign connections for profit: memo The investment firm founded by Tom Barrack, the chairman of President Trump's inaugural committee, sought to use its connections to the Trump administration and foreign powers to profit, a confidential memo reveals. The memo, obtained by ProPublica and WNYC, shows that the company — then called Colony NorthStar — planned to use its connections to capitalize off of Trump's proposed investments in infrastructure. The revelation comes after Trump's inaugural committee on Monday was reportedly subpoenaed and ordered to turn over documents about its finances. The memo, which details a "strategic plan" to benefit from the infrastructural proposal, states that Colony could "spearhead an operation" to fulfill Trump's infrastructure plans. “During the campaign the President promised he would ‘rebuild’ America bridge-by-bridge, and road-by-road. While the plan is encouraging and highly needed, the US Government does not have the necessary resources to mount such a campaign on its own," the memo reads. “Colony NorthStar can spearhead an operation that contains the external resources required to fulfill the ambitious infrastructure plan being supported by the Trump Administration and leaders in the US Congress," the memo continues. https://www.propublica.org/article/...social&utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=buffer Confidential Memo: Company of Trump Inaugural Chair Sought to Profit From Connections to Administration, Foreigners The memo outlines how Colony, the company founded by Tom Barrack, an investor who chaired the inaugural, aimed to exploit its connections to Donald Trump. Federal prosecutors are conducting a wide-ranging probe into the nonprofit that ran the inaugural. Federal prosecutors in Manhattan on Monday subpoenaed documents from the nonprofit 58th Presidential Inaugural Committee, including anything related to foreign donations. Such donations to presidential inaugural committees are barred by law. Investigators are probing whether foreigners gave money in exchange for influence with the incoming Trump administration, NBC News reported.
This will all end in a whimper, shortly. Barr will leverage Mueller and Rosenstein by letting them save their reputations if they play nice. Don't play nice and the whole dossier machinations will be laid bare for all to see. Mr. Schiff will then duck for cover lest he become investigated. The worm has turned and this nonsense is ovah!
New Trump Probe Looks a Lot Like a RICO Investigation The crimes reportedly under investigation—money laundering, fraud, conspiracy—could amount to a criminal enterprise. That’s how my team of prosecutors put away Detroit’s mayor. https://www.thedailybeast.com/new-trump-probe-looks-a-lot-like-a-rico-investigation While some reports say that Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation is winding down, it appears that another investigation is just gearing up. According to reports in The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times, a grand jury in the Southern District of New York recently issued a subpoena to the Trump inaugural committee, seeking documents relating to donors and spending. According to reports, the subpoena indicates that prosecutors are investigating conspiracy against the United States, false statements, mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering and violations of campaign finance and inaugural committee laws. In addition, CNN has reported that federal prosecutors in Manhattan have expressed interest in interviewing executives from the Trump Organization. It is impossible to know exactly what the federal prosecutors in Manhattan are investigating, but the wide array of crimes brings to mind a case that was prosecuted in Detroit when I served as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan. Former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick and several of his associates were convicted under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, also known as RICO.
I said this a while back, with so much criminal activity floating around Trump it would be malpractice for the feds not to at least discuss RICO.
