This guy knows what happened vto the painting sold with the trinity glass
And another one Bites the Dust
I love the sound of dominoes falling in the afternoon…or are those the sounds of handcuffs closing? It’s hard to tell anymore.
FBI – ‘Tommy, we can make all this go away … just tell us where the $75,000,000 from the Inaugural Fund went.’ You really have to ask ‘What was Trump’s take?’ There is no way Trump would not smell the money.
Tr**p yelled at Chris Christie ” that’s all my effin money”. I remember the orange A hole wanted all that cash back in 2016.
This man made 1.5 billion from the Emirates and the Saudi government’s in the trump years. Greed and grift trump America in these people’s book .
Now he will spend at least half of it on legal fees. Good!
😂 my heart goes out to history professors who have to explain to their students how all of this was allowed to happen 🧐
@Neo Hernandez Please don’t respond directly to the week old troll. 😊🌸
Excellent point!
@Neo Hernandez yeah neo. Do what your Catalinacuro tells you.
Democrats were behind it. It’s simple, like you.
@catalinacurio ya mama
Another one with an encrypted phone ? Hmm, so who runs/ran a company specialising in Green Zone phone technology and was pardoned by you know who ? Oh & wasn’t there some connection with Jared, this guy, 666 Fifth Avenue, Qatar and Saudi Arabia ? So much went on over the last five years, my brain is on overload.
Stop giving these white collar grifters slaps on the wrist. Give them real prison time. Not fed med time
Ivanka, Eric and Don Jr probably be next!🤞
Don Jr. must be shaking in his boots! He had a lot of interaction with the Emiraties as well! Dumb chickens coming home to roost! LOL!
Criminals always surround themselves with other criminals.
Big Tex…THESE PEOPLE LITERALLY LAY DOWN WITH A DOG ..GOT UP WITH FLEAS…SURPRISE…SURPRISE…!!
Just like your republicans.
@Mountain Fisher WRONG, NOT REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT..!!
@Desiree RL hundreds of Trump’s circle is locked up, from his committee, lawyers, to his supporters that rioted the capital
Glade too Hear A Texen that see`s
They waited, so Trump couldn’t pardon him.
Same for Trumps CEO of Trump Org. who just got indicted?
Exactly.
@MAGAtards are fake patriots Apparently a President can only pardon federal offenses, and they couldn’t interfere with the NY indictments. They fought long and only got Trumps tax returns early this year which is probably why they only filed this year.
That was terribly sweet of them.
Why didn’t we hear about this 2 years ago? Who controlled the justice department 2 years ago?
Right? Dumb question.

Was there anyone on Trump’s campaign that WASN’T getting money from a foreign country to influence the former president? Manafort, Flynn, Barrack (and you know Trump’s kids were too).
Nope.
It feels like I am living in one of those scripted TV “reality shows”. Where tens of millions of Americans are told to believe the BIG LIE, without a shred of evidence to back it up….and they do.
The most corrupt administration in the history of the United States.
This corruption will be studied for hundreds of years.
Wow, how many more for foreign agents homie enlisted in his crew!! Trump worked for UAE, Ukraine, North Korea, and of course mother Russia…….homie spat at Americans!!
The person to ask as to why nothing was done about Barrack – BILL BARR – that’s why!
Because 45 White House’s justice department refused to do their job💯💯💯!
He hires the BEST criminals that YOUR money can buy! Remember to keep sending him your money, he really needs it now.
