Money was laundered to Swiss bank accounts of shell companies then into the US in real estate & securities investments. I've long theorized that the Swamp draining started overseas first to drive the money into the US where DOJ could get at it easier!
Primary crimes occurred in 2012, but the Feds are finally closing in. The prosecution began in 2017 but based upon older information. What was your DOJ doing @BarackObama?
How do you gain 'respectability' so people don't notice you are laundering billions of dollars stolen from the starving people of Venezuela with the help of the socialist government?
You donate art to a museum.
A couple of photos called art makes up for starving children, right?
Shady private bankers, shell games, & the usual methods of hiding & laundering assets.
As yet unnamed conspirators in the US helped them move the money into the US & use it for Manhattan & Miami real estate...
In March 2018, DOJ asked for Swiss help in getting the #receipts for $4.5 Billion in stolen Venezuelan funds.
Seems the banker arranged the shell companies for them, wonder if they were in the #PanamaPapers
While the socialist government of Venezuela enabled these crimes, the Swiss & US governments are not rectifying the problem. Fortunately the cases are being handled by US Attorney's far from DC in Miami & Houston.
I have been talking about the preceding cases related to this one since late last year.
Wanna guess who the Venezuelan's hired in 2014 to shut down the media to prevent this issue being investigated? Fusion GPS. infodio.com/20170114/fusio…
After the 2018 election, DOJ unsealed a guilty plea from December 2017 for Alejandro Andrade for taking $1B in bribes as part of the Venezuelan money laundering & currency exchange scheme. It was one of my first #ButNothingsHappening stories but I can't find the thread...
Marc Rich's former company Glencore is also under criminal investigation for it's deals in Venezuela.
Venezeula also plays a role in the FINCEN scandals. Because there is really no plausible explanation for why FINCEN never designated the country as a primary money laundering concern. No non-Swampy explanation anyway!
CEO of UnitedHealthcare's insurance division gunned own in Manhattan outside of annual investor meeting.
Prior to 2021, he headed UH's govt division covering Medicare & retirement that Trump's DOJ accused of billions in fraud. #ButNothingsHappening nypost.com/2024/12/04/us-…
In 2003, UnitedHealthcare & othe insurance companies convinced Congress & the Bush Admin to create Medicare Advantage claiming they could save the govt. money.
Instead they overbilled the US for more than a decade until the Obama Admin investigated. web.archive.org/web/2017021707…
After manipulating rates by spying on patient medical records & using 'consultants' to find hidden patient medical problems so they could raise their 'risk' rate & bill higher premiums from Medicare, then they switched to an AI program to deny their care. cbsnews.com/news/unitedhea…
yWhat may be the biggest part of the agreement, DOJ is referring Raytheon to DOD & other agencies to begin a review to determine if Raytheon or individuals involved should be suspended from government contracts & debarred from future contracts!
So in addition to the corruption & bribery, the risks of Raytheon committing crimes to conceal corruption related to arms sales to foreign governments is a major factor in this case.
Opens contractors up to other off the books deals.
Raytheon as a corporation has now flipped on their executives who made these decisions. Which means Raytheon can only survive as a business & defense contractor if it provides all the receipts for criminal prosecutions.
Raytheon will pay $950 million to settle the allegations against the company for several different criminal schemse the company participated in.
Raytheon accepted a deferred prosecution agreement that becomes a confession at trial if they don't cooperate! justice.gov/usao-edny/pr/r…
The 1st set of charges are in EDNY. Bribing Qatari officials for defense contracts.
Then conspiracy by not report the bribes on the paperwork requesting permission to export the arms to Qatar. This sets a precedent for EVERY arms export deal!
Mayor Adams indicted by the DOJ following an FBI investigation.
And people still want to side with the Swamp against th FBI & DOJ.
Why could they still believe #ButNothingsHappening after 14 years of indictments & convictions?
Remember the researchers at Georgia Tech who were getting paid by the DOD & USAF to spy on Trump & feed that info into Hillary's oppo research campaign?
DOJ joined a lawsuit accusing GT on behalf of those researchers of lying to DOD about compliance with cybersecurity procedures.
So the cybersecurity people accessing NSA data to spy upon Donald Trump for the Pentagon were willfully avoiding compliance with security proposals. Then pressuring GT to lie to the DOD & submit false audits claiming that their computers were secure.
#ButNothingsHappening
I know some people still believe Hillary's Russia Hoax that told them FBI was investigating & spying on Trump.
How long are you going to continue to believe Hillary's smokescreen & help hide that it was her campaign & the Pentagon that spied on Trump?
