FBI raids governor of the Northern Marianas & the Imperial Pacific International group linked to casino money laundering, bribery & illegal political donations.
Group advisory board includes former heads of CIA, FBI, DNC & former governors of PA & NY!

Whose money are they taking in at the casino linked to this? Primarily the cash from Chinese oligarchs & officials!
So who is on their board? Louis Freeh, James Woolsey, former PA Gov & DNC Chairman Ed Rendell, Judge Eugene Sullivan, former NY Gov. David Paterson.

Evidence sought goes back to 2013...
This raid happened quietly on 11/7/19 only being revealed on the 13th.
Seems rather Swampy in this US territory in the Pacific!
Swampy deal to run the only casino on Saipan to the benefit of Swamp players in the US...
I wonder how much these advisory board members get paid to provide strategic & tactical advice to the casino?
If you are not aware of previous political scandals. The North Marianas government was part of the Jack Abramoff scandals in the 90s. Lobbying members of Congress to block a bill that would remove their exemption from minimum wage laws.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Abra…
The law was blocked by Congressman Tom Delay, after he got an all expenses paid trip to the islands by Abramoff.

They also covered up the underage sex trafficking that was part of the tourism industry...
The Abramoff case dug into the Republican half of the Swamp, but like so many previous cases, Republican voters were duped into ignoring it because it was Republicans.

Now that both halves of the Swamp are being drained, all these issues are reopened...
Abramoff & 21 others were convicted for crimes related to his lobbying efforts.
Of course you may notice that Abramoff repesented corrupt casinos that were competitors to Trump's businesses. Which is why he spent many years warning about that corruption. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Abra…
Abramoff, like Podesta, operated questionable lobbying operation for many years until Mueller's FBI (& Special Counsel investigation) shut them down.
Note the Judge Sullivan on their board is NOT Judge Emmet Sullivan handling @GenFlynn's case.
It is retired Judge Eugene Sullivan who left the bench in 2002 to retire & do consulting work.

@GenFlynn Imperial Pacific International may have been raided by the FBI in March 2018 also. Bloomberg reported it but IPI got the local papers to deny that the raid happened.
I'm not sure which is true...

@GenFlynn IPI made a big deal about hiring these US politicians in 2016.

@GenFlynn This gets even more interesting, seems the Trump Admin turned their focus onto IPI very soon, with the IRS demanding the receipts in March 2017.
While former Trump people seem to have infiltrated the company shortly before it's woes began!

@GenFlynn It also seems that the hiring of US politicians in 2016 to help them navigate regulatory & legal compliance, may have been prompted by the US shutting down one of their other casinos in 2015 for money laundering.
@GenFlynn Will the crooks EVER learn that becoming 'friends' with Trump is a one way ticket to a federal penitentiary! But they buy into the stings every time!
@GenFlynn I also wonder if it is connected to this defection by a Russian to the US. He had a US warrant for his arrest, but takes his wife, kids & parents to Saipan for vacation & disappears.
When the Russians start asking about him, US claims he was arrested.
