Mueller Time

Mueller Said to Have Subpoenaed Deutsche Bank: DealBook Briefing

This is quite interesting that Mueller is already going after the Trump finances since Trump has specifically drawn a line in the sand as to where he will not tolerate Mueller's investigations to go, specifically his prior financial dealings. Anxiously awaiting Trump's reaction on Twitter. IIRC one of Deutsche Bank's top people was a VIP at his inauguration.

Deutsche Bank is said to be in Robert Mueller’s cross hairs.

The special counsel has subpoenaed the bank for information on accounts held by members of the Trump family, Bloomberg and Reuters reported, citing unidentified people. The move came after Deutsche Bank rejected calls from Democratic lawmakers to shed more light on its business dealings with President Trump.

And Deutsche Bank has already been fined heavily for money-laundering for Russian oligarchs. Stay tuned.

Not only that, but Deutsche Bank is the one who came through with a couple hundred million dollars to bail out Jared's ill-fated NYC business venture.

I was just reading about that. I always had it figured that Agent Orange was laundering Rubles. Looks like I may be right, for once.

Why is Deutsche Bank so important? After a string of bankruptcies and broken promises, pretty much every other major bank stopped lending Trump money some years ago. The one exception was Deutsche Bank, to which Trump owed $364 million as of the end of last year. By sheer coincidence, Deutsche Bank recently had to pay $670 million in fines for its role in a Russian money laundering plot.

They probably have as much to hide as Trump. So will be unwilling to give without some guarantees be my guess.

The regulatory authorities in every country in which they operate hate Trump with a passion. They'll catch a load of shit if they stonewall.

Been refusing for awhile. Now with a subpoena we will see.

Already paid a fine IIRC over it's dealing with Russia money.
