In 2016 and 2017, employees at Deutsche Bank reportedly suggested that activity related to Trump and Kushner’s accounts be reported to federal anti-money-laundering authorities, only to be overruled by their superiors. nytimes.com/2019/05/19/bus…
We don’t know yet if Mueller investigates these activities in his counterintelligence investigation. Either way, Congress must act now to “follow the money.” nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-ope…

A lot. To start with, the surveillance of Page happened under a law specifically designed to prevent abuses like the FBI spying on King.
Three separate judges—all of whom were appointed by Republicans—signed off on the warrant. Two of those required evidence that the surveillance was providing investigators useful information about clandestine foreign intelligence activities in the US.

Also worth noting: The first of those applications didn't come in until October 2016, *after* he'd officially left the Trump campaign. nytimes.com/2018/07/21/us/…

💣MuellerEve💣

Uproar!!!

📌Mueller report will be released in the afternoon, lightly redacted, revealing detailed look at O of J probe.

📌Barr & Rosenstein will give a press conf & deliver the partisan Barr Report 2.0 at 9:30am edt

📌Mueller not invited.
💣MuellerEve2💣

DOJ will present MR w/out certain redactions available to certain members of Congress/staff "in an appropriate setting."

Barr briefed & had numerous convos w/ WH re MR so they had time to strategize & prep a rebuttal while withholding it from American public.
💣MuellerEve3💣

The delay was necessary so Trump’s lawyers could strategize & prepare the rebuttal & control the narrative ahead of public release.

Nadler is deeply troubled to hear the WH was briefed abt the MR b/4 congress or the American people.

Deutsche Bank's U.S. Unit Kept Danske's Shady Billions Flowing

H/T ⁦@ThomasS4217⁩ bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
📌Years before regulators learned about what may be one of the biggest money-laundering pipelines in history, low-level bank employees in Jacksonville, Florida, sounded repeated alarms.
bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
📌Compliance workers for Deutsche Bank AG flagged some of at least $150 billion in transactions that the bank’s U.S. subsidiary handled for a tiny Estonian unit of Danske Bank A/S, according to a former compliance officer.

Deutsche Bank ♥️ Trump

📌A Profitable Decades-long Love Affair

📌Why on earth would Deutsche Bank (DB) continue to lend money to a notorious loan defaulter like Trump?

📌This is a key part re TrumpRussia
‼️Theory:‼️

Is it logical to conclude that Russia funnels (launders) money into Deutsche Bank, which then ‘washes’ money via back door deals & then loans the money to Trump.

Ergo is DB the middleman between RU & Trump earning sizable fees on every transaction? Win, win, no?
Russia:

Investigators are seeking evidence in a massive money laundering scheme involving Deutsche Bank about the practice of hiding money offshore to elude tax collectors and government regulators.

Deutsche Bank AG & Bank of America Corp. have been contacted by US criminal investigators for info about transactions they handled for a small bank branch in Estonia that’s at the center of one of the biggest money-laundering investigations in history bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
DOJ investigators have also asked questions about JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s work with the branch, another person said.
The Danish lender acknowledged that the branch moved nearly 1/4 trillion dollars’ worth of cash into the global financial system, much from potentially illicit activity in Russia. 2007-15 It used the 3 banks’ global presence to convert foreign cash into $ on behalf of its clients
