Garrett Graff at Wired.com has prepared a helpful guide to the (count 'em) 17 investigations into unindicted co-conspirator and fraudster Donald "Rump" Trump. They range from the well-known investigation of Special Counsel Robert Mueller into Russia's extensive sabotage of the 2016 elections to benefit Rump, to investigations that are being pursued on Rump's tax filings to the State of New York and the City of New York. Graff's even included two "mystery" investigations not included in the 17 involving mentions of redacted cases in the Flynn investigation and in the identity theft case involving Richard Pinedo and Russian military intelligence. Some may not be disclosed due to counterintelligence considerations.
In a CNN interview today, Graff explained that in all 17 cases, prosecutors had cooperating witnesses (not to mention documentation and possibly recordings). He noted another feature in the cases that involves Rump's criminal organization:
“One of the things that should make the president and his family really nervous is that, in some of these cases, it appears almost everyone else involved in the conspiracy is cooperating with investigators except for the Trump family. That’s a very dangerous place for them to be, knowing that they are probably the final targets of those probes.” (our emphasis)Here's the full interview with Graff:
There'll also be investigations conducted by House Committees, now that Dems hold the gavel. So much criminality and conspiracy to plow through.
UPDATE: Well, you can kiss the Trump Foundation goodbye, while the lawsuit continues --
The Donald J. Trump Foundation has agreed to dissolve under judicial supervision amid an ongoing lawsuit concerning its finances, according to a document filed Tuesday in Manhattan Supreme Court by the New York state Attorney General's office.
The dissolution of President Donald Trump's charity resolves one element of the attorney general's civil lawsuit against the foundation, which includes claims that the President and his children violated campaign finance laws and abused its tax-exempt status. The lawsuit will continue in court because it also seeks two other outcomes: $2.8 million in restitution, plus penalties, and a ban on Trump and his three eldest children serving on the board of any other New York nonprofit.And a small reminder of what a self-dealing scam it was:
And its smallest-ever gift, $7 to the Boy Scouts in 1989, appeared to pay for his son's annual Boy Scout dues.https://t.co/Vi02CnZ07R https://t.co/XrOJhYFj9T— David Fahrenthold (@Fahrenthold) December 18, 2018
