NY AG’s office tells CNN —
“We have informed the Trump Organization that our investigation into the organization
is no longer purely civil in nature. We are now actively investigating the Trump Organization
in a criminal capacity, along with the Manhattan DA.”
I have to believe CFO Weisselberg will flip on Trump if given the opportunity to do so. He's knows that if the roles were reversed, Trump wouldn't think twice about doing it to him.
Could Weisselberg be so brainwashed that he will remain loyal & spend the rest of his life in prison? What if his kids are nabbed for tax evasion? Would he rather see Trump's kids in jail instead of his? Of course, right?
How about Trump's sister former judge Maryanne? No way she's clean on all the deals, right?
Sounds like Weisselberg's former daughter in law is getting payback from a nasty divorce settlement. What's that about a "woman scorned?"
What could Trump possibly offer Weisselberg to keep him from spilling the beans?
The Trump Organization is very small & I find it almost impossible not to get whacked when the shit hits the fan. Trump doesn't have enough fingers to point at all those he will blame. It was the appraiser! It was the bank! It was my lawyers! It was my accountant! It's the Democrats!
It's time to pay the piper Donnie.
Trump campaign grifting cities
over unpaid security bills
It is official, former President Donald Trump’s campaign has been sent to collections
for refusing to pay his security bills.
As of July 2020, Trump had over $2 million in unpaid security bills that stacked up
from Pennsylvania to New Mexico.
It was reported by the Albuquerque Journal in October that their city sent Trump
an invoice for $211,175.94 for barricades and overtime for officers to be on hand
for the event.
At last check, that hadn’t been paid along with the several other cities.
Business Insider reported in July 2020 that the Pennsylvania rally with former
running mate Mike Pence was another campaign event that incurred a bill for
handling security for a political event. Over the nearly five years that Trump
has been running a campaign, he hasn’t paid the bills to the city.
Now, the city of Albuquerque is demanding their payment.
Trump’s rally was held nearby in Rio Rancho, where city officials covered the security
costs as Trump stayed at a hotel nearby, The Albuquerque Journal reported.
But that didn’t account for the thousands in costs spent to deal with his rally.
After Trump stiffed the city and still refused to pay, the city is fighting back.
Trump campaign grifting cities
over unpaid security bills
In another debate, Trump refused to pay the city of Minneapolis after stacking up
over $530,000 in security costs for a 2019 rally.
The mayor there was furious and fought back at the time.
Trump and Mayor Jacob Frey got into it over $530,000 in security fees
that the Trump campaign owed after a rally.
So, the mayor tried to block the use of any and all further city-owned facilities
until Trump paid up.
The Trump campaign responded to it by threatening to sue the mayor.
Trump's campaign argued that they were being denied access to the Target Center
and that the “liberal” mayor was attempting to stifle free speech.
The mayor responded by saying that in Minneapolis they pay their bills.
“As we continue confronting extraordinary challenges at the local level,
our federal leaders have the opportunity – and obligation – to stand up
for taxpayers by ensuring they’re not left footing the bill for political events,”
Mayor Frey said in his statement. “We have a duty to protect free speech
regardless of the content, but we DON'T have to subsidize it.”

A friend sent me this as a reminder as to what this POS did over the past 4 years.
He was a traitor who attempted a coop to hang his vice president in the act of his constitutional duty to read the certified state electoral ballots.

President Donald Trump wanted National Guard troops in Washington to protect his supporters at a Jan. 6 rally that ended with them attacking the U.S. Capitol, leaving five dead, Trump's former Pentagon chief testified on Wednesday.
Former Acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller told a House of Representatives panel that he spoke with Trump on Jan. 3, three days before the now-former president's fiery speech that preceded the violence and led to his second impeachment.
According to Miller's testimony, Trump asked during that meeting whether the District of Columbia's mayor had requested National Guard troops for Jan. 6, the day Congress was to ratify Joe Biden's presidential election victory.
Trump told Miller to "fill" the request, the former defense secretary testified. Miller said Trump told him: "Do whatever is necessary to protect demonstrators that were executing their constitutionally protected rights."
Your excellent 3-part posting, even if not composed by you, is now duly copied and archived,
and already among the leading candidates for my annual
2021 "Politics Forum Post of the Year" - to be determined next New Year.
Of course much more can be added to your friend's long list, such as:
• Publicly called on not one, not two, but THREE foreign countries to interfere in our electoral process.
At least ONE did, and that was *CONFIRMED* by the Republican majority Senate sub-committee.
• Actually commited a felony by telling his supporters to vote multiple times.
• Put an ill-advised heavy tariff on Canadian lumber, thereby drastically reducing that supply chain, and setting in motion massive increases in lumber costs which we see today because of heavy demand and VERY SHORT supply!
• Side-stepped the legal jurisdiction of Congress by appropriating funds away from our military to build a wall on our southern border that he promised Mexico would pay for.
• claims he knows more about war than our Generals.
• Diverted military aircraft waaaaaaaay off their normal routing in Europe for no reason other than they would be forced to refuel (at double the usual fuel expenses) at a FAILING airport in Scotland which desperately needed funding to remain open next to trump's FAILING golf resort in Scotland *and* force personnel to overnight at HIS resort, paid to his company by American taxpayers.
• Seriously attempted to get the G7 conference staged at Mar-o-Lardo (for his mega-profit), and wanted to invite his buddy Putin to rejoin the conference on his personal invitation.
• had the most firings and departures from his government in 4 years than any president ever including all those serving 8 years.

• "Yosa-might National Park" LOL
• openly supported the quack doctor who preaches "demon sperm" and "alien DNA"
• only president to float the stupid idea of "nuking" hurricanes
• told America on TV that California was having devastating forest fires *BECAUSE* Californians weren't raking the leaves in the forests.

continued...
• only person to lose the Presidential popular vote to a woman candidate.
• only person to lose the Presidential popular vote TWICE.

Only president to ask if injecting uv radiation would be a good thing to a medical doctor at a press conference.
In response to covid 19 pandemic.
First time a former defense , state, and homeland security agreed there boss was a fucking lunatic while the president was still in office.
The new book A Very Stable Genius by Washington Post reporters Philip Rucker and Carol Leonnig has some fresh context surrounding former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson’s famous “he’s a fucking moron” dis.
Seems Tillerson made the comment following an unhinged Trump tirade during which the commander-in-queef disrespected the military (not by kneeling at a football game or anything, but still) in the harshest terms.

Former Defense Secretary James Mattis on Wednesday slammed President Donald Trump's response to the protests over the death of George Floyd, saying the president "tries to divide us" while calling his "bizarre photo op" in front of St. John's Episcopal Church "an abuse of executive authority."
"Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people — does not even pretend to try. Instead, he tries to divide us," Mattis wrote in a statement published
About a year ago.

General John Kelly's take on MR. Trump.
Former White House chief of staff, retired Marine Gen. John Kelly, has said that President Trump "is the most flawed person" he's ever known, CNN reported.
"The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life," Kelly has told friends, the outlet reported.
Kelly left the White House in January 2019.

Matt Gaetz said if Trump doesn't run for President in 2024, he will.
So the guy accused of sexually assaulting women doesn't run,
the guy accused of having sex with minors will.
Correct. That is the republican way.
And that's the best they have to offer.
But the truth is they could put the actual DEVIL on the Christian-Republican ticket and still get 40% of the popular vote.
Awesome!
Even more awesome part 2 
And all factual!
