NY prosecutors zero in on Trump's alleged 'pattern of fraud' as investigation enters 'critical pha

According to the Times, Vance's prosecutors have recently issued subpoenas for records about the Trump Organization's hotels, golf clubs and office buildings.

"They recently interviewed a banker employed by Deutsche Bank, Mr. Trump's top lender," the Times reports. "And earlier this month, they told a top Trump executive who had been under scrutiny, Matthew Calamari, that they did not currently plan to indict him in the purported tax-evasion scheme that led to charges against Mr. Trump's company and its chief financial officer." ...............

Hung out with Trump or accepted political donations and help from him before he was POTUS?

Yea, someday maybe. I'm not holding my breath. The politically connected and wealthy don't suffer the rule of law like the rest of us do.

Intended in those days to move "product" and keep us on the edge of our seat and coming back for more every Saturday, was closer to unadulterated fun. Even if the villain seemed to have the upper hand at times.

This is different.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING..K & R

...Trump thinks he can commit "fraud" and get away with it. (like everything else)

But not this time. These are criminal offences that he ....cannot get away with...........I will say it again.....

Why taking so much time?...Prosecutors want an iron clad case that will win...no matter what Trump does
.that is why..And yes, Trump will lose. ..Will he go to jail?...not up to me....But yes, he will be convicted..!!!
