Deutsche Bank Staff Saw Suspicious Activity in Trump and Kushner Accounts

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Anti-money-laundering specialists at Deutsche Bank recommended in 2016 and 2017 that multiple transactions involving legal entities controlled by Donald J. Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, be reported to a federal financial-crimes watchdog.

The transactions, some of which involved Mr. Trump’s now-defunct foundation, set off alerts in a computer system designed to detect illicit activity, according to five current and former bank employees. Compliance staff members who then reviewed the transactions prepared so-called suspicious activity reports that they believed should be sent to a unit of the Treasury Department that polices financial crimes.

But executives at Deutsche Bank, which has lent billions of dollars to the Trump and Kushner companies, rejected their employees’ advice. The reports were never filed with the government.

Seems to fit a president who is going lawsuit crazy to hide his personal finances. I don’t think even his supporters would be surprised if he’s laundering money. More Russian ties that lead the fbi to look into the trump campaign.

 

If everybody else in America is subjected to having their bank act not as a fiduciary, but a backstabbing government informant, so should Trump and Kushner be subjected.

 

Russia GIVES Clinton $145 million but Trump is who the Times reports on. If only the Times would attempt to get to the bottom of the scandals surrounding the IRS, DOJ, EPA, FBI, email servers, destroyed evidence, lying to the FBI and congress, spying on reporters, rigged primaries, skimmed DNC money, etc.

 

Hey I’d you're looking launder Russian money, Deutsch is the bank to go with.

 

No they didn’t and you’ve been shown that 100 times.
Why don’t you care if trump is a money launderer? Because you imagine someone else did something?

 

How do I apply to get a couple hundred million of that Russian money?

 

It’s the side of polonium tea you should be worried about

 

Money launderer, you essentially mean tax cheat. Do you want to go there?

 

Nobody cares!

 

An underling was carrying out a low level number crunching task and forwarded an irregularity to a supervisor for proper review whereupon it was dismissed as being innocuous.

Media steps in and now the low level number cruncher is an "expert professional" and the review was of course corrupt because clearly an $80 billion dollar bank would risk massive fines and censures trying to cover for a single client whom also happens to be the most reviewed and investigated individual on the ****ing planet.

 

Two words - Tiffany Trump...

She's not quite the looker Ivanka is, so that might make it easier for you....

 

Let the dream die.

 

Where does one get money they need to launder?

 

You mean ignore new revelations? Why would we do that?

 

If you are correct then I'm sure the DOJ will come to the same conclusion.

 

Yah it’s not like this is a bank with a history of laundering Russian money.
Oh yah, it is

You act like people don’t get caught doing stupid **** all the time. Flynn lied about a call he knew the fbi had a transcript of lol

 

Yes it is. Unfortunately money laudering is wide spread. HSBC still holds the US record, it's fines and penalties until recently dwarfed Deutsche banks. Wells Fargo just got caught again. This time for laundering drug cartel money. Wells Fargo has paid $163 million in fines for money laudering, not including what will be tacke on as a result of yesterdays guilty plea. Americans, just like the rest of global borrowers, have no idea who their mortgage holders depositors are. Same goes for credit cards.

 

Right. So it would be prudent for the FBI and Congress to investigate transactions that threw up red flags. Agreed?

 

No that's what the US Treasury and IRS do. Special counsel Mueller already subpoenaed and reviewed Trump's Deustche bank records, so the DOJ is satisfied just like the Treasury & IRS. It's never going to be prudent for congress to undermine the constitution, or assert some phony directorship of the DOJ.

 

According to this report, Treasury / IRS didn't investigate. Because the bank took the decision NOT to report it.

Mueller wasn't looking into money laundering and we don't know if he ever got these particular records. It seems entirely appropriate for someone to look into it. Treasury / IRS, FBI. And Congress has an oversight role, as confirmed by yesterday's court ruling.

 

Mueller subpoenaed and received Trump's Deustche bank records 2 yrs ago. The top US Treasury / IRS fraud unit investigators were assigned to team Mueller 3 yrs ago. Congress has no oversight of non government financial activity. The US Treasury / IRS and DOJ who indicted Deustche, began investigating in 2016. It examined ALL of Deustche commercial mortgages / loans from 2005-2015. Team Mueller had access to all those financials, and didn't need a subpoena to review them. Even if Mueller didn't, congress still doesn't have oversight over that banking entity or it's borrowers.

 

So you are convinced that these red flags have been fully investigated. A lot of people aren't convinced. It was not part of Mueller's brief to investigate money laundering.
And Congress DOES have oversight of the President. If he committed felony bank fraud or money laundering, that would be pretty good grounds for impeachment. They can investigate and see where it leads.

 

Sorry, but Trump’s lawyers got laughed out of the courtroom yesterday when they tried to peddle that argument.

 

Doesn't surprise me.
