BREAKING: New York federal prosecutors seek interviews with Trump Organization executives, signaling a growing potential threat to the Trumps from criminal investigations by the Manhattan [SDNY] US Attorney's office.
by @eorden @CristinaAlesci #Maddow cnn.it/2t7gbAL
Trump and his lawyers have long harbored concerns that investigations by New York federal prosecutors may pose greater danger to him and his family than the Mueller probe. Prosecutors' recent interest in Trump Org execs may intensify those fears.
#Maddow
One Trump campaign official who was questioned *last summer* by SDNY prosecutors was asked about coordination between Trump Org & the campaign, how Trump Org was structured, and which accounts were used to pay campaign staffers & campaign-related bills.

SDNY's subpoena to Trump's inaugural committee also asks for records related to tech company Stripe, which processed payments from donors. A key investor of Stripe is Thrive Capital, which, at the time, Jared Kushner co-owned with his brother Josh.
#Maddow nyti.ms/2UKFPHe
What the @nytimes piece fails to point out is that while tech company Stripe was being paid by the Trump inaugural fund, Jared Kushner was still a key investor in Stripe through his company Thrive, which he did not divest from until spring 2017.

Mar 20, 2017: Jared Kushner *plans to* exit 3 limited liability companies backed by Thrive Capital, the firm he co-founded with his brother Josh. The companies include tech company Stripe [named in SDNY's subpoena to the Trump Inaugural Committee].

by @JustinElliott @ilyamarritz #Maddow bit.ly/2DVOdOo
Per the confidential memo from Colony, the company of Tom Barrack, who chaired the inaugural now under criminal investigation: "The key is to strategically cultivate domestic and international relations while avoiding any appearance of lobbying."

Secret files show how Trump Tower Moscow talks unfolded while Trump heaped praise on Putin. Side by side timelines of Moscow Tower negotiations [between Michael Cohen, Felix Sater, & Moscow] and Trump's evolving public comments on Russia.
by @azeen #Maddow bit.ly/2SvnqAH
Of note: Before Trump signed the Moscow Tower letter of intent, the Trump Org revised the clause stating that the terms of the agreement were to be kept confidential by everyone involved. The edit by Trump Org allowed Trump himself to speak publicly about the deal.
#Maddow
Michael Cohen and Felix Sater planned to use Trump’s public praise for Putin to help secure the lucrative Trump Tower Moscow deal. At the same time, they plotted to persuade the Russian president to declare his support for Trump’s candidacy.
