Popular Post webfact Posted December 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2022 By Lauren del Valle and Kara Scannell, CNN CNN — A Manhattan jury has found two Trump Organization companies guilty on multiple charges of criminal tax fraud and falsifying business records connected to a 15-year scheme to defraud tax authorities by failing to report and pay taxes on compensation for top executives. The Trump Corp. and Trump Payroll Corp. were found guilty on all charges they faced. Donald Trump and his family were not charged in this case, but the former president was mentioned repeatedly during the trial by prosecutors about his connection to the benefits doled out to certain executives, including company-funded apartments, car leases and personal expenses.

Now that the mid terms are over things might change quickly. I may be mistaken but I think this is Alvin Bragg's prosecution. Letitia James is still out there. It may be the reverse, I'm not sure. It's hard to keep track of all the investigations. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post placeholder Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2022 I haven't seen any accounts of the actual jury's deliberation, but it seem to me the fact that the Trump Organization kept on paying Alan Weisselberg his full salary and bonuses, and had nothing but kind words for him, despite that fact that he committed crimes, is a very strong indication that they were afraid of what he might reveal were he antagonized by them. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not realise he has served his purpose for the federalist society ???? No one except the deniers want to see him saved Unlike when he was president Biden is not screaming and shouting what the justice department should do for Him if hunter has done something illegal let him be prosecuted for it. If he benifited foreign companies and its a crime fair enough he did a poor job considering how good the trump children were at it put all on trial for fairness? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guilty verdict comes as Trump is under scrutiny by federal and state prosecutors for his handling of classified documents, the effort to overturn the 2020 election results, and the accuracy of the Trump Organization’s business records and financial statements. He is also facing a $250 million civil lawsuit from the New York attorney general alleging he and his adult children were involved in a decade long fraud. The attorney general is seeking to permanently bar them from serving as an officer or director of a company in New York state, among other penalties. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/06/politics/trump-organization-fraud-trial-verdict/index.html 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really someone I would quote as an example of personal integrity or trust in government. James Clapper, the former director of national intelligence, denied Tuesday that he lied to Congress when he falsely testified during the Obama administration that the government does “not wittingly” collect the telephone records of millions of Americans. https://apnews.com/article/business-33a88feb083ea35515de3c73e3d854ad Edited December 7, 2022 by Pattaya Spotter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
