1. The USA's government is corrupt . . .

hopefully we can get this information from outside sources.

2. Buzz Feed should keep it to themselves. This is dumb.

They could get a court order slapped on them since they're outing themselves.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.

3. If it involves trump, its pointless

society has grown numb to it. He is so dirty, so deceitful, so completely amoral, that he has immunized himself against any recriminations.

I mean our starting point for this guy was him talking, on video, about how he tried to cheat on his wife with another married woman and about how he likes to sexually assault women and then actually sexually assaulting a women on camera moments later, no one in the GOP cared. Press media stopped caring in less than 2 news cycles.
Literally right before the election he was found to have been running a fraudulent school and charity, Literally stealing from kids with cancer...republicans didn't care. Press stopped caring in a single news cycle.

We, as a society, have decided that nothing trump does is shocking and nothing is worth holding him accountable.

4. I welcome the latest bombshell. The more the merrier. Bring it! nt

5. U.S. FinCEN leaks to have 'chilling effect' on fight against financial crime, say AML experts

From thomsonreuters.

The photo is dated Sept 18th. I'm not sure if that's the date of the article.

Leaks from the U.S. financial intelligence unit will have a devastating effect on the trust and confidentiality that underpins the anti-money laundering (AML) profession, financial crime experts said. Businesses that file suspicious activity reports (SARs) will be deeply concerned about the exposure of their compulsory and legally protected filings, said sources with experience in both the private sector and law enforcement.

The U.S. Treasury’s anti-money laundering agency, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), has suffered a major security breach, with media outlets preparing to publish a raft of articles based on its sensitive data holdings. The work is being coordinated by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ), which was behind the Panama Papers and a number of other “data leak” projects.

FinCEN has said in a statement it was “aware that various media outlets intend to publish a series of articles based on unlawfully disclosed SARs, as well as other sensitive government documents, from several years ago”. ICIJ has not responded to requests for comment.

Leaking financial intelligence unit (FIU) data or revealing the details of a SAR filing is a criminal offense under the Bank Secrecy Act 1970 (BSA) and other federal government laws and regulations. The criminal penalties under the BSA include a fine of up to $250,000 and five-year jail term for each offense.
