@patribotics I think the #FinCENFiles prove that FinCEN has done nothing to effectively enforce the money laundering done through shell companies in US real estate for years.
They've actually inhibited investigations by hoarding a lot of this documentation themselves without investigating.
@patribotics Russia compromised the Treasury in 2015. Several whistleblowers were silenced.
So a Transnational Crime Syndicate takes over FinCEN, hopes to install Trump in power and hits the hail-mary.
@patribotics They install their people at the Treasury first, then take over DOJ, and they're laughing.
They employ the "Catch and Kill" strategy.
They use FinCEN to gobble up all the money laundering crimes, become strangely tight with all the records, and just sit on it.
@patribotics In all the details that we know, isn't it funny how the money never gets found?
Mueller apparently didn't look at the money. CI investigation didn't look at the money. No one seems to give a shit about emoluments.
People make their jokes, but when conversations get honest everyone says the same: they're scared, exhausted, and know we're on the cusp of everything getting much worse.
In response to the mental onslaught of so much happening all at once, our media has transformed into a white noise machine calibrated to drown out the death knells.
Every day feels harder to face, frivolous to the point of absurdity.
Instead of waking up we slam that snooze button, and slip into an alternate dimension where time is in abundance.
August 3, 1983 - William J. Casey and his wife attend a reception in honor of Roy Cohn hosted by Craig Spence.
August 4, 1983 - President Reagan and Nancy Reagan greet Donald Trump during a reception for Eureka College Scholarship recipients in the State Dining Room.
Cohn was on the Eureka College Scholarship committee, Trump was a donor.
They didn't both attend in 1983, but Cohn and Trump both went to the Eureka College Scholarship Reception the previous year, on June 28, 1982.
These New York guys must have been quite passionate about the Illinois liberal arts college.
"We knew it might take 5 or 10 or 20 years, yet gradually an authoritarian state arose within the democratic state, and a nucleus of fanatical devotion and ruthless determination formed in a wretched world that lacked basic convictions."
"Only one danger could have jeopardised this development — if our adversaries had understood its principle, established a clear understanding of our ideas, and not offered any resistance."
"Or, alternatively, if they had from the first day annihilated with the utmost brutality the nucleus of our new movement.
Neither was done. The times were such that our adversaries were no longer capable of accomplishing our annihilation, nor did they have the nerve."
