April's come & gone & I forgot to retweet my favorite NYT story dated April 1, 1939 about a huge shipment of gold shipped from either Nazi Germany or England secretly unloaded at a NYC pier less than five months after Kristallnacht....
nytimes.com/1939/04/01/arc…
..I first came across the story more than a decade ago & I've since posted about it on Twitter several times in hope one of the historians here could tell me more about it...
..Me again, trying to generate interest in the secret shipment of gold story...
..A more detailed thread re FDR, Treasury Sec Henry Morgenthau, Henry Ford, Canada etc...

As reported by @PoliticoRyan, Ivanka's signature W-GDP program in connection w USAID was an unaccountable mess which is no surprise to anyone who followed the news about it from Day One....

...Screenshot of Lynne Patton's OGE report. Part of her $106k income from Trump Org came from golf memberships etc. The fact that her income was only $106k including the employee bennies is a telltale sign of her real status in the company....
...Admittedly, I was angry that Lynne Patton, a self-acknowledged lifelong cocaine addict & chronic liar, held an important position at HUD overseeing billions of dollars of federal spending....
