This is a step that I have pointed out as coming next!

Next is NOW!

VW admitted to fraud under former execs & paid huge fines. Now VW is demanding that former board members pay them back for the losses!
Screenshots from a translated version of the article!
#ButNothingsHappening
Former CEO who resigned in 2015 over the scandal has recieved a demand to pay over one billion Euro to compensate VW for his misconduct!
4 other former execs are also in the crosshairs for smaller amounts. But VW is expecting insurance companies who provided executive liability insurance to pay up a 1/2 of that billion Euro. Which obviously will be a huge hit to the insurance companies.
Which will motivate the insurance companies to force better conduct by insured execs & companies in the future...
It may also lead the insurance companies to investigate & prove criminal conduct by the execs to invalidate the insurance coverage! They will collect the #receipts!
Several of the execs have been indicted for fraud & now the insurance companies have at least 1/2 a billion reasons to hand over the evidence of their guilt!
In the past, executives have gotten away without taking too big of a hit. But by seeking amounts that max out the insurance policies at VW, Audi & Porshe it will motivate the insurance companies to shift the blame to the executives!
VW is blaming their former CEO for his inaction after the date they can prove he knew of the fraud to rig diesel engine emissions & MPG tests to deceive US regulators!
VW focuses only on the last 8 weeks they can prove he knew about it, hoping they can find the #receipts to show he knew long before he testified he knew about it. The paper does note the insurance companies can get off the hook for the cash if the execs get convicted.

The Trump Rope-a-Dope with Vladimr Putin is over!
Now comes the knock out blows!

Putin has to throw in the towel today or be destroyed!
Trump knows Putin can't admit defeat, so will be defeated!

The Pro-Putin former commies from Germany are no longer weakening NATO.
You can see my earlier discussion on this topic here.

Gone are the days of German leaders from East Germany, weakening NATO by not spending their agreed upon defense budget.
Gone are the days fo German politicians buying energy from Russia & taking Swampy deals & well paid seats on Russian company boards.

Credit Suisse pleads guilty & flips for helping 475 US account holders hide billions from the IRS in off-shore accounts.
They have also signed a deferred prosecution agreement for other crimes & agreed to cooperate!
Crimes from 2010-2021!
#ButNothingsHappening
Credit Suisse will pay $510M in fines & penalties in addition to the guilty plea.

After corrupt bankers collapsed Credit Suisse, UBS bought them & are now also forced to comply with the cooperation agreement!

It's a 2 for 1 special! Image
The reason for the requirement to plead guilty is likely because when they committed these crimes, they were under a Deferred Prosecution Agreement signed in 2014 that required their cooperation.
They didn't think DOJ would hold them to it!

People on all sides still believe the Russia Hoax that told them Trump & Putin are on the same side.

But that enabled Trump to rope-a-dope Putin into expecting Trump to hand him a victory in Ukraine that Russia's army can't achieve.

The Russians are figuring out it was a trap!
Russia can't win the war militarily.
It has lost the war economically.

Trump baited Putin along to ensure that Russia is taken off the table before we confront China.

Trump has created a scenario where Putin can lose or lose everything.

The presence of Chinese soldiers with the Russian Army isn't new. But why do you think it is big news now?

Because the US his highlighting China's involvment in the war as leverage.

You think the only thing Trump wants from China is to reduce their tariffs & protectionism? Image

I wonder if the Clintons get to keep their 'donations' for engineering the US taxpayers to pay for those Boeing to China sales?

#ButNothingsHappening
The Clintons & their foundation board member Terry McAuliffe helped Boeing violate sanctions & fund China's World's Fair in 2010.
Boeing also got caught exporting defense technology to China as part of its business relationship with China.

How long before people realize that Trump sets up cases to get precedents set in court?
Once the exact parameters & processes for using the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 are confirmed deporting Tren de Aragua, how long does Trump wait to use it on China's 1000 Talents spy program? Image
It would be very easy to prove in court by the precedents set at this time that the 1000 Talents program is a predatory incursion against the United States by the Chinese government.

And Trump set the stage during his 1st term!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand_…
In 2018, the Trump White House laid out the threat posed by Chinese economic encroachment into the US economy.

This entire tanker deal between Boeing & the US Air Force was Swampy corruption.

Now the tankers are facing structural flaws.

Are they constructed from the titanium that the Clintons helped Dmitry Firtash sell to Boeing after bribing Indian officials to mine it?
FAA found that Boeing was buying titanium from sources that were falsifying the paperwork to hide where Boeing got it from.
Firtash is a Ukrainian oligarch who is friendly with Putin because he owns assets in both countries.

But he works with Swampy consulting firms like McKinsey & Co. to set ups Swampy deals & he hires the best lawyers to keep him out of a US prison.
