@srenee_24 @markjohnt3 @ACNickel @fi_poodle @GetrealTwo @supersleuthgrl @justforfun1328 @imOnlyWebDevvin @TrinityAndNeo3 @thedailybeast @DonaldJTrumpJr @MarkMeadows I provided you a link to Hettena's thread on his FOIA lawsuit regarding Trump's interactions with a Russian mobster.
The case is too complex to be understood with a single quote.
In that case the FBI withheld records about Trump under Exemption 7(d) & 7(E).courtlistener.com/docket/1494198…
@srenee_24 @markjohnt3 @ACNickel @fi_poodle @GetrealTwo @supersleuthgrl @justforfun1328 @imOnlyWebDevvin @TrinityAndNeo3 @thedailybeast @DonaldJTrumpJr @MarkMeadows 2 entitites are named in the case, Donald J. Trump & the Trump Organization. Exemption 7(d) (protection of law enforcement sources) cannot be used to protect the identity of a corporation only an individual.
So it can only apply to Trump in this court case.
@srenee_24 @markjohnt3 @ACNickel @fi_poodle @GetrealTwo @supersleuthgrl @justforfun1328 @imOnlyWebDevvin @TrinityAndNeo3 @thedailybeast @DonaldJTrumpJr @MarkMeadows Hettena argued that the FBI memo you ignored had already confirmed that Trump was a source & that FBI was using his casino in Atlantic City as a honey trap for mobsters.
So since FBI had already publicly confirmed Trump was an FBI asset that DOJ could not use Exception 7(d).

I missed this one!

Zurich's oldest private bank flips on it's customers, pay a $22M fine & confess to helping them evade $16M in US taxes. Agrees to hand over the #receipts & help the US prosecute these American oligarchs.

#ButNothingsHappening
Rahn & Bodmer admitted to helping 340 US taxpayers evade taxes from 2004-2012 by concealing their identities from US authorities. They had a peak of $391M stashed in the bank to hide it from the IRS. Image
Looks like they got caught moving assets to shell companies in Panama after assets in Liechtenstein shell companies became exposed to US authority in 2008.

I bet the #PanamaPapers gave them the keys to understanding these shell companies & enabled authorities to track it. Image

@DrStefool @MenyaraC @davereaboi These guys are great, they didn't notice when many in the media covered Trump's work for the FBI when they got the FOIA documents in 2015!

They thought they were going to find all of his 'crimes' only to find redacted documents about his service as an FBI asset!
@DrStefool @MenyaraC @davereaboi He doesn't know that the press covered the Buryakov case as the FBI's Wealthy Atlantic City Casino Investor Russian Collusion sting from Jan. 2015 until May of 2016. Then Chris Steele shows up with the same story spun into a conspiracy to steal the election & they pretend...
@DrStefool @MenyaraC @davereaboi He's going to be so disappointed when he is finally forced to admit that the Obama Admin authorized Trump's 'collusion' with the Russians as part of an FBI sting to catch Russian spies.
You know the Trump motto #MobstersCheckInButTheyDontCheckOut

DOJ accuses Russia & Qatar of bribing FIFA for rights to host soccer the World Cup. This case has connections to much of Swamp & stopping this case may have been a prime motivator of Russia & Qatar intervening in 2016 election. justice.gov/usao-edny/pr/t…
#ButNothingsHappening
This indictment went out late on Monday, I told @DrStefool I'd get a thread out on Tuesday afternoon, but life & posting has been disrupted with lockdown. But I am finally getting to post about it because it requires explaining connections to other scandals including #Spygate!
These are the 'new' defendants in a case that has been running for many years & including them in the RICO case against FIFA & it's continental management groups is a big step forward. It appears investigations into certain aspects of FIFA corruption were obstructed for years.
