Trump Org CFO and Trump personal accountant Allen Weisselberg surrendered today to Manhattan DA for arrest on criminal charges of NY tax fraud. His trial will come soon. What happens AFTER this trial and conviction? This thread shows what comes NEXT
Weisselberg Path Thread 2/
Weisselberg surrendered today because of Tax Fraud by Donald Trump at Manhattan DA office on criminal charges. I explained what this MANHATTAN DA case is about, in this thread today:
My day JOB is an analyst (tech & media industry, 12 books etc). Also do political analysis. I am also professional forecaster, one of most accurate on Twitter
My followers are usually interested in my take of what comes NEXT not what is happening NOW
Weisselberg Path Thread 4/
We KNOW Weisselberg is now charged on an incredibly solid case, that he will lose (he will be convicted of criminal tax fraud). You can follow the play-by-play of that trial by real attorneys. I am not an attorney.
But I can tell you what comes next
Weisselberg Path 5/
As I've said, Allen is in 5 Trump CRIMINAL cases:
1 Tax fraud (Manhattan DA)
2 Money laundering (NY AG)
3 Sanctions busting (Federal SDNY)
4 2016 campaign finance (Federal, Mueller)
5 More recent fraud while POTUS (DC Hotel etc)
He has to confess to ALL
Weisselberg Path 6/
Manhattan DA (= NY Taxes) case is FASTEST way to get Trump to prison (Trump faces over 20 criminal and civil cases)
Because I have a separate Thread just about Manhattan DA, I will not discuss how screwed Allen is & why he loses THAT case. Let's look beyond
Weisselberg Path 7/
The SECOND Trump Criminal case, involving Weisselberg, is Money Laundering
It is ALSO a NY state criminal case, but is in a DIFFERENT court, not Manhattan. It is run by NY Attorney General.
Money laundering with Trump goes back to his bankrupted casinos in New Jersey. He was laundering money for Mafia. Weisselberg knows all these details
Wouldn't it be funny if Chris Christie had some crooked deal in prosecuting Trump back then? (or Giuliani)
Weisselberg Path 9/
The RECENT money laundering (this is still 2nd case, NY AG) is Russian money, Putin oligarchs. Here we may get some shady crooks caught (again) like General Flynn & Manafort
In case of money laundering, there HAS to be a counterpart whose money is laundered
Weisselberg Path 10/
THIRD criminal case is Sanctions Busting: federal crimes (SDNY)
This is life in prison, crimes against the USA
This is what Weisselberg feared, and begged Trump for a Presidential pardon. This pardon request was Trump's toughest decision to turn down.
Weisselberg Path 11/
So sanctions were about Putin invading & occupying Crimea. Trump as a civilian back then, went onto Fox (#FixFox) to argue that Russian sanctions should be ended !!! Anyway, Trump had helped Putin circumvent those sanctions
...This is Deutsche Bank records
Weisselberg Path 12/
You remember Deutsche Bank connection to SCOTUS? Yes, Justice Kennedy's sudden retirement. His son was corrupt banker at DB who handled Trump's loans
As part of SDNY case about sanctions busting MIGHT get to Kennedy mystery too (Did Trump sell SCOTUS seat?)
Weisselberg Path 13/
The FOURTH Trump criminal case involving Weisselberg is 2016 campaign finance crimes (= Mueller). Federal. Is now being investigated. Mueller promised us, he preserved all evidence. One part of this is 'Individual One' and Michael Cohen/Stormy Daniels case
Weisselberg Path 14/
FIFTH Trump crime is emoluments, financial crimes DURING Trump Presidency, starting with his hotel in DC. This brings Ivanka, Melania, and some Trump White House people etc involved. Most of these crimes are so recent, they are not even fully known yet.
Weisselberg Path 15/
When Weisselberg flips (he will flip), he hast to confess to ALL crimes (all 5 cases), and bargain to get his MULTIPLE LIFE SENTENCES prison term reduced. That is a COMPLEX plea bargain. We do not NEED Allen to flip to get Trump. But makes the case stronger
Weisselberg Path 16/
The serial murderer, smuggler, extortionist & crook, America's most notorious gangster, Al Capone was not convicted on murder, but on TAX crimes, & died n prison
It doesn't matter HOW we get Trump in prison. He has MULTIPLE separate criminal trials waiting
Weisselberg Path 17/
After Trump's first criminal conviction (NY Taxes/Manhattan DA) he pays dozens of millions if not hundreds of millions of back taxes (his buildings seized) AND goes to prison, for a decade or more.
He becomes CONVICTED FELON & fraud. THAT changes everything
Weisselberg Path 18/
That Thing on top of Trump's head will be shaved. Trump will be BUSSED from one criminal trial to the next, wearing an orange jumpsuit in his court appearances
It becomes FAR EASIER to convince a jury of his OTHER crimes, after he is convicted on the first
I have now added part 3 for today's Threads: It is the OTHER Trump major cases, not involving Weisselberg, so Giuliani, Matt Gaetz, Roger Stone... if you want my take and update on those too:
Thursday was Weisselberg Day as Trump's accountant and his company CFO surrendered, was indicted on 15 counts of criminal financial frauds including tax evasion.
This thread summarizes what I learned incl great discussions with my Tweeps
Tomi's Take on Weisselberg Day 2/
We learned Weisselberg has been indicted on 15 counts. He is due $1 million dollars in unpaid taxes and could get 5 years. He is charged with Grand Larceny on systematically falsifying tax documents over 16 years which could add 7 years.
Tomi's Take on Weisselberg 3/
Weisselberg arrived at 6:15 AM voluntarily to surrender. He was cuffed. He entered plea of not guilty to all 15 charges. He was considered a flight risk. He surrendered his passport. He was released without bail because these are non-violent crimes.
As Trump Allen Weisselberg CFO to Trump Org and Donald's accontant surrendered today to Manhattan DA, arrested on Tax Fraud crimes against NY state, I have updated my Weisselberg Threads, & added some related Threads about secret Trump Pardons, Flight risk etc.
Today 1 July 2021 Allen Weisselberg surrendered (as I had predicted, with the first published timeline anywhere, for all major Trump crime cases due this year)
This is Manhattan DA & NY Taxes. To understand the case, here is the thread:
Allen Weisselberg is not only investigated for the Manhattan DA case of NY tax crimes with Trump. They are involved in FIVE different financial crimes now under investigation. This thead discusses the 4 OTHER financial crimes:
Trump accountant and Trump Org CFO Allen Weisselberg surrendered to Manhattan DA today to be arrested on criminal case involving decades of Trump tax fraud against NY State. That case has NOTHING to do with Jan 6 or Giulani etc. Let's look at them
Thread Beyond Weisselberg 2/
The Manhattan DA case against Trump now taking Weisselberg into custody today, is an OLD FINANCIAL crime Trump committed BEFORE HE BECAME President. I discussed this case today:
There are FIVE major financial crimes that Weisselberg and Trump have committed together. This Manhattan case today, leads to the other four. I discussed those 4 other financial crimes in this Thread today:
Trump Org Allen Weisselberg surrenders to Manhattan DA on July 1, 2021 on criminal charges relating to Trump tax fraud in state of New York. This thread explains the matters and people that are involved, and how they relate to other Trump crimes
Weisselberg Trial Thread 2/
I have been discussing the Trump financial scandals here on Twitter from early 2016. This is total update Thread (my last update was mid June). It will examine Weisselberg CRIMINAL CASES - there are FIVE - and offers context to Trump crimes (over 20)
Weisselberg Trial Thread 3/
There are over 20 investigations into Trump, criminal or civil. Four MOST relevant
Allen Weisselberg = NY taxes & other crimes
Rudy Giuliani = Ukraine extortion & other crimes
Matt Gaetz (teen rape) = Sale of pardons
Roger Stone = Jan 6 Insurrection
"You wanna get a Commission? Here's how you get one. He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of his to filibuster, you send your Commission to the House! That's the Chicago way."
About Criminal Prosecution. I have told you, repeatedly, this is a Mafia trial. The boss ALWAYS goes last. This is your schedule:
Weisselberg indictment July (or Aug)
Giuliani indictment July or Aug
Matt Gaetz indictment Aug or Sept
Roger Stone indictment late 2021 or early 2022
Once again. FOUR PATHS
Weisselberg trial is not Jan 6. Does not relate to Trump Presidency. It is NY STATE crimes from before. It is his TAX fraud. It is the FASTEST way to get Trump to prison
Weisselberg NEXT leads to Ivanka, Beavis & Butthead Trump. After kids, is Trump trial
A SEPARATE path to Trump imprisonment, is Giuliani. This too has nothing to do with Jan 6. It is Ukraine extortion case (so this is the criminal prosecution part, related to Impeachment 1).
Giuliani trial leads to Pompeo, Bill Barr and Jared trials. After them we get to Trump
