badlatitude 2,793 Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 After averting a conviction in his second impeachment trial, former President Donald Trump faces significant new legal threats as prosecutors in Georgia have joined those in New York to conduct criminal investigations into his actions. As the nation watched harrowing videos from January 6 of Trump supporters storming the US Capitol during the Senate impeachment trial this week, Georgia officials announced they have opened investigations into Trump's efforts to overturn the state's election results, including by pressuring officials to "find" votes to swing the outcome in his favor. The new investigations add to a heaping list of legal issues facing the former President that could threaten his finances and possibly his freedom. Out of office and without the protections that the presidency afforded him, Trump is now facing multiple criminal investigations, civil state inquiries and defamation lawsuits by two women accusing him of sexual assault. The pressure comes as Trump weighs his future in politics and in business with the Trump Organization, which has already been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, also losing corporate partnerships following Trump's January 6 speech whipping up the crowd. In the three weeks since Trump left the White House, the multiple legal threats he faces have increased and become more imminent. Georgia election results Georgia officials announced that the former President faces two new investigations over calls he made to election officials in an attempt to overturn the state's election results. The pressure comes as Trump weighs his future in politics and in business with the Trump Organization, which has already been impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, also losing corporate partnerships following Trump's January 6 speech whipping up the crowd. In the three weeks since Trump left the White House, the multiple legal threats he faces have increased and become more imminent. A source familiar with the Georgia secretary of state's investigation confirmed they are investigating two calls, including one Trump made to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. In the January call, audio of which was obtained by CNN, Trump is heard pushing Raffensperger to "find" votes to overturn the election results after his loss to then-President-elect Joe Biden. "This is not an easy case, but it's not one that you should walk away from investigating," said Bret Williams, a former federal prosecutor in New York and Atlanta. "It will be tough to show that he had intent to solicit Raffensperger to commit election fraud but he may have." Trump's senior adviser, Jason Miller, said in a statement to CNN that there was nothing "improper or untoward" about the scheduled call between Trump and Raffensperger. "If Mr. Raffensperger didn't want to receive calls about the election, he shouldn't have run for secretary of state," Miller said in the statement. The investigation also involves a call Trump made in December to a Georgia election investigatorin the state secretary of state's office who was leading a probe into allegations of ballot fraud in Cobb County. Trump is heard asking the investigator to "find the fraud," saying the official would be a "national hero." The second Georgia investigation is being conducted by the Fulton County District Attorney's office, which announced Wednesday that it has also opened a criminal investigation into Trump for his "attempts to influence the administration of the 2020 Georgia general election." "Anyone that violates the law will be prosecuted, no matter what their social stature is, no matter what their economics are, no matter what their race is or their gender. We're not going to treat anyone differently," Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis told CNN affiliate WSB in an interview earlier this week. The earliest a Fulton County grand jury is expected to convene is in March, and the district attorney's office can request grand jury subpoenas as necessary at that time. "I believe laws were broken because I think it was a clear effort by at the time a President of the United States, who I think at the time also wielded a certain amount of power to influence the secretary of state to do something wrong," said Michael J. Moore, a former US Attorney for the Middle District of Georgia during the Obama administration. "I think that's what the statute says, and if those things happened, that's a violation of law," he said. Business dealings in New York Trump also faces a criminal investigation in New York where the Manhattan District Attorney's office is looking into whether the Trump Organization violated state laws, such as insurance fraud, tax fraud or other schemes to defraud. The scope of the investigation is broad, with prosecutors looking into, among other things, whether the Trump Organization misled financial institutions when applying for loans or violated tax laws when donating a conservation easement on its estate called Seven Springs and taking deductions on fees paid to consultants. Prosecutors are awaiting a decision from the US Supreme Court on whether it will continue to delay the enforcement of a subpoena for eight years of Trump's personal and business tax returns and related records from his accounting firm. If the Supreme Court allows the subpoena to be enforced, it will provide a significant boost to the investigation. New York State Attorney General Letitia James' office is conducting a civil investigation into whether the Trump Organization inflated the values of his assets in order to secure favorable loans and insurance coverage. Alan Garten, general counsel of the Trump Organization, previously told the New York Times, "Everything was done in strict compliance with applicable law and under the advice of counsel and tax experts." He added, "All applicable taxes were paid and no party received any undue benefit." The attorney general's office deposed Eric Trump, executive vice president of the Trump Organization, in October. James' investigation is civil at this time but could become criminal https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/13/politics/trump-legal-problems-post-impeachment/?hpt=ob_blogfooterold Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some are civil suits stemming from his pre-presidential business dealings. Others are defamation claims from women he allegedly assaulted. More still are criminal probes and civil suits, scrutinizing his attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The Chart below tracks all these cases.

Stunning new allegations further connect Trump to Russian mobsters and oligarchs James S. Henry and David Cay Johnston, DC Report @ Rawstory March 01, 2021 However we decide to account for Donald Trump's astonishing rise and fall, we now know that he was certainly no stranger to a sprawling netherworld of Russian gangsters and oligarchs. Now there are stunning new allegations in federal court documents that this Russian criminal network with worldwide reach hired Felix Sater, one of Trump's closest associates, to hide a fortune stolen in Kazakhstan. The central Asian country was once part of the Soviet Union. The stolen fortune cited in the lawsuit is the tip of the iceberg. Keep reading. Stolen money amounting to $440 million was invested in America and run through trust funds maintained by Moses & Singer. The New York City law firm has long represented Sater, a Soviet-born American. more https://www.rawstory.com/trump-sater/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrleft8 2,440 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Trump has put his 10,455 Sq Ft. beach cottage, which is directly across the street from Mar-A-Nogo up for sale. Asking price..... $49 Million. And so starts the fire sale of real estate to pay for his upcoming vacation in court rooms across the nation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If I am not mistaken, that is the total of the loan(s). He'll offer to pay them a small portion (interest only?). They'll likely take it, as the alternative is he walks away from them. If they make a stink, it'll end up in court and they will not be able to control what information of their business with him is made public. I would imagine they know they are in bed with a money-laundering scheme involving some shady characters from Russia. Better to keep that shit quiet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fakenews 1,192 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Cy Vance is turning his attention to Trump’s 102M loan forgiveness tied to the Trump tower in Chicago. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/03/donald-trump-manhattan-da-criminal-probe#intcid=recommendations_vf-trending-legacy_b3c28283-c1e8-4ca4-9d03-91e703f25a47_popular4-1 Investigators’ interest in how Trump and his company treated the Chicago loan is an expansion of an inquiry that encompasses multiple aspects of the Trump business. Prosecutors are examining whether the company misled lenders or insurance brokers about valuations for certain properties. New York Attorney General Letitia Jamesfirst raised questions about Trump’s handling of the Fortress loan last fall when her office disclosed in a court filing that it was investigating whether Trump and the Trump Organization recorded the forgiven amount as income and paid taxes or whether there was some explanation as to why that wouldn’t be required. The attorney general’s office said at the time that information about the transactions was “significant” to its civil investigation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
