Lots at the link

Among them:

• A partner in the firm that developed the Trump SoHo Hotel in New York is a twice-convicted felon who spent a year in prison for stabbing a man and later scouted for Trump investments in Russia.

• An investor in the SoHo project was accused by Belgian authorities in 2011 in a $55 million money-laundering scheme.

• Three owners of Trump condos in Florida and Manhattan were accused in federal indictments of belonging to a Russian-American organized crime group and working for a major international crime boss based in Russia.

• A former mayor from Kazakhstan was accused in a federal lawsuit filed in Los Angeles in 2014 of hiding millions of dollars looted from his city, some of which was spent on three Trump SoHo units.

• A Ukrainian owner of two Trump condos in Florida was indicted in a money-laundering scheme involving a former prime minister of Ukraine.

It's a pretty long read. This guy keeps really dirty company.

And congress hasn't subpoenaed his taxes yet because...?

 

[Shard]

And congress hasn't subpoenaed his taxes yet because...?

Republicans.

 

[Tahnit]

Every other day is another connection to Russia. When will be enough to really start the impeachment process?

 

[Dude Abides]

After Trump went bankrupt for like the fourth time nobody reputable would loan him money so he had to go to shady Russians.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Every other day is another connection to Russia. When will be enough to really start the impeachment process?

When Trump refuses to cut the top marginal tax rate and not a moment before.

 

[BlueTsunami]

And congress hasn't subpoenaed his taxes yet because...?

Because if his are subpoenaed "EVERYONES TAXES would be open to the public" slippery slope argument. Which is bullshit, since we have a very good reason for cracking those books.

 

[smokeymicpot]

So many connections and smoke. Something needs to go on fire to connect it all.

 

[liquidtmd]

Every other day is another connection to Russia. When will be enough to really start the impeachment process?

When he inevitably pisses off one too many Republicans, not before.

 

[throwawayname]

Are we sure Donald isn't a secret Russian himself?

 

[Hubbl3]

And congress hasn't subpoenaed his taxes yet because...?

Still rooting out those dirty, filthy, Commie leakers. Remember, no one is tougher on the Commies than the GOP.

 

[GaimeGuy]

The russian mafia was literally operating out of Trump Tower, 3 floors below his penthouse.

Manafort has also lived in Trump Tower since 2006.

 

[The Artisan]

what the fuck

They don't exactly deny it either they just point at Hillary I mean come on!

 

[Autoignition]

One of these days I'm going to have to dance naked around the halls of the Capitol building, throwing flower petals everywhere and singing about how the slippery slope is a logical fallacy, aren't I?

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Was this what was making him all mad last night and made him tweet about the clintons and podesta and Russia?

 

[Slime]

And congress hasn't subpoenaed his taxes yet because...?

They think if they remain wilfully ignorant the scandals don't exist.

Schrodinger's treason.

 

[Hatty]

Something has gotta give at some point right?

 

[Sephzilla]

Are we sure Donald isn't a secret Russian himself?

The biggest plot twist of all would be the reveal that Donald "started the birther movement" Trump was actually not from America

Every other day is another connection to Russia. When will be enough to really start the impeachment process?

I used to think when Republicans start to think their seats are in jeopardy. However Trump lately has even been attacking Republicans so maybe they'll just turn on him because he pissed them off.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

did not see that coming

 

[Randolph Freelander]

One of these days I'm going to have to dance naked around the halls of the Capitol building, throwing flower petals everywhere and singing about how the slippery slope is a logical fallacy, aren't I?

If the slippery slope ever does arrive, I will be more than happy to shove a few Republicans down it.

I dont have problem opening my taxes to the public.

It's all about context. If the context calls for it, what's so special about tax returns? Police can bust through your damn front door if they have a warrant, right?

 

[Lord Frieza]

Haha, wow

 

[Autoignition]

Sometimes they don't even need that. Exigent circumstances.

 

[Media]

Oh my God.

 

[InaSnowBoundLand]

The connections between Donald Trump and Russia that have already been made public are deeply disturbing.

Just think: what else could the Presidunce be hiding?

 

[Laevateinn]

If you think about it, aren't we all Russia?

 

[BajiBoxer]

Amazing

 

[RPGCrazied]

If this was Hillary Republicans would be asking for her head and doing all sorts of hearings and investigations, but when its their own party they can't be bothered and half ass things?

Great priorities you got there.

 

[johnsmith]

[the_firewithin]

Give it a few more months and an EO will be signed to make us change our names

 

[mrjohill]

this is just a season of 24 now

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Are we sure Donald isn't a secret Russian himself?

We need to see the birth certificate. There's something going on.

 

[Chumley]

Great priorities you got there.

If this was Hillary impeachment proceedings would have started on Day 1.

 

[Karl2177]

Hahahaha

 

[TheOMan]

Repugnicans.

FTFY

 

[Magwik]

Fucking
Hell

 

[Surfinn]

Lol how big of a twist would THAT be

 

[adamsappel]

I usually give New York City politicians and businessmen a pass on having Mafia ties. I mean, no shit you have to grease a few palms, etc. to get anywhere. But usually the benefit of doing that is you get to tell the Russian Mob, the Chinese Triads, etc. to go pound sand.

 

[jstripes]

Lol how big of a twist would THAT be

Twist: The historical name Drumpf was just a cover-up. It was actually Trumpkovski.

 

[Flo_Evans]

I don't really even see smoke here...

So some russian organized crime people bought some condos at Trump tower? Off a 3rd party?

 

[Surfinn]

Trumpkovski.

Lol can we start calling him that

 

[SoundofSilence]

After Trump went bankrupt for like the fourth time nobody reputable would loan him money so he had to go to shady Russians.

This nails it right here. Understanding how Trump has been able to find financing to pay the interest on his existing debt (which is enormous) as well as raise new financing for both new and existing projects leads you right to Russia.

Except, of course, we don't have his tax returns.

 

[Exile20]

And congress hasn't subpoenaed his taxes yet because...?

Republicans are afraid of what they may find. If his taxes reveal what we think, then the party will be fucked for years.

 

[Monocle]

That makes him smart.

 

[bengraven]

Fake news keeps getting more desperate. Now they're bringing in facts.

 

[Guy.brush]

Every fucking day it is popcorn day. I can't...since January so much popcorn..

 

[ZOONAMI]

The dirt keeps piling up. Eventually the GOP gonna cut bait.
