Stay tuned...

https://www.icij.org/investigations/...est-1-percent/

First up appears to be Commerce Sec'y Wilbur Ross, who is doing business with Putin companies at the same time he's involved with those sanctions against Russia.

I think we'll be hearing a lot more about this.


This may be the find of the decade. Holy crap ! Data going back 70 years on the "global elite".
While the MSM may focus only on the Trump-Russian connection there's a whole heck of a lot more.

Hundreds of millions of dollars INVESTED into the companies of Uber, Facebook, Google and Twitter.
And here little Markie was worried about some Facebook ads. Heck a controlling interest via stock ownership is ten times more worrisome than some transient facebook ads.

Companies, individuals, politicians and even governments have been hiding money in these accounts.

70 years of data folks on how the little man gets screwed no matter what country you live in and you folks are focused on Trump.

FWIW there's an Obama cabinet member mentioned as well who "divested" but secretly put all the money into an offshore account that continued the same investment.

ATS is going wild over this find. You see..there IS a global elite and there IS TPTB calling the shots and hoarding money like there is no tomorrow. And governments are part of it.

Never. Trump could murder their family in front of them and they'd say he did a great job. They're sick, deranged people.

It's not just Wilbur. The data goes back 70 years with many, many names.

People, companies and even governments all doing this for decades upon decades.

While I've thoroughly enjoyed your hysteria over the last past 2 years I'm getting a little bored with the Putin-Trump stuff (though the Pikachu connection a few weeks back was awesome).

So let's see how Pence ruffles your feathers. Bring on Pence!

There have been lots of smoking guns. When are you going to admit this Administration is in bed with Putin? That's cute that you're bored with a foreign country destroying American democracy. Bang up patriot you are.

Oh and Pence isn't getting out of this one either. Nor is Paul Ryan.

So hello to President Hatch.

Just do some more reading. This goes back 70 years and it's global.

Companies, individuals, governments. The corruption runs wide and deep here.

Ross, Tillerson, Kushner, Cohn - all of them in bed with Russian government money. The swamp has moved from DC to Moscow.

Yes it does, but Trump is still the most corrupt and dangerous administration in history. Carter had to sell his family peanut farm to avoid the perception of corruption or conflicts of interest.

Trump literally brags about his ethical violations and corruption.

Russian money is deep in the US with hundreds of millions of dollars invested into shares of Uber, Facebook, Twitter and Google.

When you own stock you get to vote on company changes. When you own lots of shares you get to influence and change rules at that company.

There's bigger fish to worry about than if Trump got elected because of Putin.

That explains how he went from public obscurity at Exxon to SoS in the Trump admin.
