Federal Prosecutors Subpoena Trump's Inaugural Committee
« on: February 05, 2019, 03:12:39 am »
Federal prosecutors in New York issued a subpoena Monday seeking documents from Donald Trump's inaugural committee, furthering a federal inquiry into a fund that has faced mounting scrutiny into how it raised and spent its money.

Inaugural committee spokeswoman Kristin Celauro told The Associated Press that the committee had received the subpoena and was still reviewing it.

"It is our intention to cooperate with the inquiry," she said.

A second spokesman, Owen Blicksilver, declined to answer questions about which documents prosecutors requested. The U.S. Attorney's Office in Manhattan, which issued the subpoena, declined to comment.

Except, it’s neither. This is the Manhattan district, SDNY, conducting the investigation. Trump really effed up by firing Preet Baharara. His subsequent US Attorney appointment, Geoffrey Berman, has sat on the sidelines of investigations involving Trump, due to conflicts. Now, the deputy, Robert Khuzami, controls the investigation. His specialty is in complex financial crimes. See the Cohen conviction, as an example. The subpoena was just received, so the filing and investigation opening had to go through the acting AG Whitaker. He’s either signed off on it or recused himself. Based on his refusal to step away from the Mueller probe, it’s likely he approved it.

Maybe not him directly, but a lot of people surrounding him. Imagine the terrible luck Trump has, being surrounded by so many corrupt people, but ‘innocent,’ himself. It’s almost like he’s a Clinton.

Just the latest fishing expedition in the Mueller handoff to the special counsel’s satellite office in New York.

Mueller’s bound and determined to find a witch somewhere, somehow.

Whitaker has the authority to quash this. Why didn’t he?

This is to the point of being ridiculous.  Does anybody really care at this point?

You don't care, and you don't really want to know who does.  Ignorance is bliss.

New York federal prosecutors seek interviews with Trump Organization executives

(CNN) — Federal prosecutors in New York have requested interviews in recent weeks with executives at the Trump Organization, according to people familiar with the matter, signaling a growing potential threat to President Donald Trump and those in his orbit from criminal investigations by the Manhattan US Attorney's office.

Trump and his legal team have long harbored concerns that investigations by New York federal prosecutors -- which could last throughout his presidency -- may ultimately pose more danger to him, his family and his allies than the inquiry by special counsel Robert Mueller, according to people close to Trump. Prosecutors' recent interest in executives at Trump's family company may intensify those fears.

Mueller hands off a nugget here or there to local prosecutors just to make sure the circus continues after he tires of fingerpainting with his own poop and wanders off into the sunset.
