This is why Trump is trying to block Congress from subpoenaing his financial records from Deutsch Bank, or at the very least to put it off until after the 2020 election. Everybody knows Trump was laundering money, and all he's trying to do is stall that revelation from being a matter of public record for as long as humanly possible.

Anti-money laundering specialists at Deutsche Bank recommended in 2016 and 2017 that multiple transactions involving legal entities controlled by Donald J. Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, be reported to a federal financial-crimes watchdog.

The transactions, some of which involved Mr. Trump' now-defunct foundation, set off alerts in a computer system designed to detect illicit activity, according to five current and former bank employees. Compliance staff members who then reviewed the transactions prepared so-called suspicious activity reports that they believed should be sent to a unit of the Treasury Department that polices financial crimes.

But executives at Deutsche Bank, which has lent billions of dollars to the Trump and Kushner companies, rejected their employees' advice. The reports were never filed with the government.

The nature of the transactions was not clear. At least some of them involved money flowing back and forth with overseas entities or individuals, which bank employees considered suspicious.

"You present them with everything, and you give them a recommendation, and nothing happens," said Tammy McFadden, a former Deutsche Bank anti-money laundering specialist who reviewed some of the transactions. It's the D.B. way. They are prone to discounting everything."

Ms. McFadden, a longtime anti-money laundering specialist in Deutsche Bank's Jacksonville office, said she had reviewed the transactions and found that money had moved from Kushner Companies to Russian individuals. She concluded that the transactions should be reported to the government -- in part because federal regulators had ordered Deutsche Bank, which had been caught laundering billions of dollars for Russians, to toughen its scrutiny of potentially illegal transactions.

One of the places I bank now requires my ID if I deposit cash because that's a "suspicious activity". Mind you, I'm talking putting $200 cash into my own account, not $20k.

But wasn't that already reported in January of 2018?!? Or is your link an update to what has been found?


"A German bank reportedly has evidence of “suspicious transactions” related to Jared Kushner’s family accounts and is willing to hand the information over to Russia probe special counsel Robert Mueller.

The board chairman of the banking giant Deutsche Bank, Paul Achleitner, called for an internal investigation and found troubling results, German business magazine Manager Magazin reported in its print edition released on Friday.

Deutsche Bank—a major lender to President Donald Trump and his son-in-law and senior White House advisor Kushner, according to Mother Jones—provided the results to the Federal Financial Supervisory Authority, which is Germany’s bank regulatory agency and referred to as BaFin. ..."

We're officially at a point where it's going to be a matter of public record that Trump was a money launderer, and the country's going to respond collectively, "Well duh."

We all know Trump is as crooked as a crack in the sidewalk, even his supporters. But, they will keep lying so they can pretend the piss falling on their heads is rain.

Question: Would this show up on a tax return form?

Deutsche bank has been money laundering for years and of course if anyone needed laundered money, it's been Trump since no other bank would have anything to do with Trump. He's a racketeer, plain and simple. The chain of command at the bank took a look at this suspicious activity and overruled their employees. Two years ago Deutsche Bank was fined $630 million in penalties for laundering more than 10 billion dollars of Russian dark money. That $630 million fine is worth it to a bank that makes billions.

Yeah, that's literally true. They keep telling us how much they love paying those tariffs.

It's like Bill Clinton 2.0.

Or Hillary 2.5.

I think that's a question that Congress is trying to find out but Steve Mnuchin is refusing to allow anyone to find that out.

I saw suspicious material when Justice Kennedy resigned a day before the news broke that his son lent Trump a $1B.

The Right Wing coup is in full swing. Deny Obama Judge Garland. Conspire with Russians to steal the election from Hillary. Insert two new SCOTUS Judges and a host of appellate ones, then own the Judicial Branch for a generation.

Fait accompli

The Republicans are very consistent in their views about presidential powers, aren't they. They believe that there's unlimited power in the presidency if there's a Republican president in the White House. When Barack Obama was in the White House, he was called a tyrant and a dictator whenever he wrote executive orders, he wasn't even allowed to fill a Supreme Court seat. And there's Bill Barr who was Attorney General under a previous Republican president, George Bush, Sr., who he helped to cover up a crime, the Iran-Contra affair and who also helped to dole out pardons to his pals and former colleagues. He's being consistent as well in his skewed view of the Constitution. Bill Barr should have never been confirmed as the A.G.

Just the cost of doing business...

Paying $630 million in fines was well worth it for Deutsche Bank. Paying that fine was like swatting an annoying little fly to get it off your great big steak. It's annoying, but it doesn't change the flavor of the steak.

Congress has no business looking at his bank records.

Nevermind proof, though. Right?

But, Mueller found nothing. Why is that?
