House intelligence chair announces sweeping investigation into Trump's finances and Russia

https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/06/polit...ler/index.html

Quote:
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff announced Wednesday a broad investigation his committee would undertake "beyond Russia" into whether President Donald Trump's financial interests are driving his actions.

Schiff said the investigation would "allow us to investigate any credible allegation that financial interests or other interests are driving decision-making of the President or anyone in the administration."
"That pertains to any credible allegations of leverage by the Russians or the Saudis or anyone else," Schiff told reporters after the House Intelligence Committee's first meeting in the new Congress.

In a statement, Schiff said the investigation would include a continued probe into Russia's actions during the 2016 election and contacts between the Russia and Trump's team, as well as an examination of "whether any foreign actor has sought to compromise or holds leverage, financial or otherwise, over Donald Trump, his family, his business, or his associates."

Schiff said the investigation, which could involve additional congressional committees, would also look at whether Trump or his associates have "sought to influence US government policy in service of foreign interests" and any potential obstruction into the various investigations.
Let's hope they can nail the crook before the 2020 elections...

Sergei Millian, identified as an unwitting source for the Steele dossier, sought proximity to Trump’s world in 2016

NO COLLUSION!

Paul Manafort’s family received a $1 million loan in 2017 — and the lender’s identify remains a mystery

https://www.alternet.org/2019/01/pau...ins-a-mystery/

Quote:
In a January 9 post on Twitter, journalist Jeff Grocott (known for his Bloomberg articles) wrote, “This is wacky. Paul Manafort’s family got a $1 million loan in his moment of legal peril—just after FBI raided his home in summer 2017. So who loaned the money?”

Grocott has posted an entire Twitter thread about the loan, stressing that the identity of the lender remains a mystery.

The lender, Grocott explains, called itself Woodlawn LLC. It’s unclear exactly who Woodlawn LLC is, although the lender is connected to Hollywood producer Joey Rappa—whose name appears on a November 2018 filing that was made when Mueller moved to seize Manafort’s properties. In the filing, Rappa (who was a production associate on the 1996 film “The Nutty Professor”) is described as a “managing member” of the Nevada-based company that made the $1 million loan and is making a claim on the Manhattan condominium that Manafort’s family offered as collateral.

Bloomberg has reported that according to Rapp’s lawyer, he had nothing to do with making the loan. However, Rapp is, through his film work, linked to Andrew Intrater—an American financier and cousin of Ukraine-born oligarch Viktor Vekselberg, who Mueller’s team questioned in 2018 about his connection to Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen. Intrater, Bloomberg reports, has been working on a film with Rapp.
The Russian connections just never end with these guys. NO COLLUSION!

There’s so much room in Russia. Plenty of space for the traitors to move to and live their pathetic, treasonous and ignorant lives.

A not-unlikely outcome of all this is the Trump family eventually moving to Russia. Sad for Russia!

Better yet, how about a nice gulag somewhere in Siberia?

Would not suit the narratives of current regime. It might BE a gulag, but it won't look like one. Gilded cage, definitely.

Judge voids Paul Manafort plea deal, says he 'intentionally' lied to the FBI, special counsel and grand jury

It just doesn't pay to lie, Paulie...
