Federal investigators examined Trump Media for possible money laundering, sources say

[onthedarkside]

 

Federal prosecutors in New York involved in the criminal investigation into Donald Trump’s social media company last year started examining whether it violated money laundering statutes in connection with the acceptance of $8m with suspected Russian ties, according to sources familiar with the matter.

 

The company – Trump Media, which owns Trump’s Truth Social platform – initially came under criminal investigation over its preparations for a potential merger with a blank check company called Digital World (DWAC) that was also the subject of an earlier probe by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Towards the end of last year, federal prosecutors started examining two loans totaling $8m wired to Trump Media, through the Caribbean, from two obscure entities that both appear to be controlled in part by the relation of an ally of Russian president Vladimir Putin, the sources said.

Started searching.

 

I’m suspect they didn’t stop.

 

To start a search they would need reason to do so.

LOL. The latest in a long list of failed attempts to take the Donald down.

 

IMO they must be really, really scared that he will win in 24.

It's no secret that Putin had something over him.  Sold out for a measly 8m.  Scum.  Seed fell right next to the tree in that family

I'm sure you wouldn't make such a claim without being able to link to proof from a credible source. Please share that link with us.
