IK, R?
I'd think he'd have to be smuggled in a (very) large canvas laundry bag..
Allen Weisselberg's hands were ALL over the Presidential Inauguration Committee's (PIC) $107 Million Dollars.They made ME the cover girl for Trump's grift. Don, Jr. doesn't seem to know anyone or anything. See below what Rick Gates had to say about Weisselberg

. So much to discuss.
Thanks. Internet kept cutting out so I missed big chunks. Melber isn't a favorite of mine either, but I do admit to enjoying seeing Cohen speak out, no matter whose show he's on.
I agree with all of this except I would assert that Melber was never any better than he is now.
I think that was one of the issues they were talking about (in that really disjointed way): the PIC.filly wrote: ↑Mon May 24, 2021 7:10 pm The interview was a train wreck, IMHO. Jennifer talks a lot but if she has a train of thought, it was hard to follow. Cohen kept jumping in. Winston-Wolkoff didn't get to speak much, but she kept talking about the "Civil Case" which Melber never bothered to clarify. Put three New Yorkers on a Zoom call and see if you can get a story out.
I was guessing the "Civil Case" is the DC AG's case? I don't know because the highly paid Ari Melber didn't ask. He's horrible. It's obvious he hasn't tried many cases (if at all) because the transcript of that interview will be a mess.
Winston-Wolkoff did remind me, however: what ever happened to the investigation into the Presidential Inaugural Committee? Did Bill Barr kill that too?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/national ... KAbbrx9FEsManhattan's district attorney has convened the grand jury that is expected to decide whether to indict former president Donald Trump, other executives at his company or the business itself should prosecutors present the panel with criminal charges, according to two people familiar with the development.
The panel was convened recently and will sit three days a week for six months. It is likely to hear several matters — not just the Trump case — during the duration of its term, which is longer than a traditional New York state grand-jury assignment, these people said. Like others, they spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. Generally, special grand juries such as this one are convened to participate in long-term matters rather than to hear evidence of crimes charged routinely.
The move indicates that District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr.’s investigation of the former president and his business has reached an advanced stage after more than two years. It suggests, too, that Vance believes he has found evidence of a crime — if not by Trump then by someone potentially close to him or by his company.
Aren’t the statute of limitations for criminal tax felonies in NYS only 5years? Which would mean while CIVIL charges could be the end result for tax evasion/fraud from before 2016, it’s only tax evasion/fraud from 2016 to 2021 that can be prosecuted criminally? That’s a narrow window, since proving Trump knew of and participated in NYS tax felonies after Jan 20,2017 will be a heavy lift.sugar magnolia wrote: ↑Tue May 25, 2021 7:06 pmI think they can indict at any point during that six months, not that they have to wait six months to indict.

But if the tax schemes have been continued forward since Jan20, 2017 wouldn’t it be a practical impossibility to indict TFG for any crimes committed after 1/20/2017? And crimes from 2015 and earlier are outside the statute of limitations. So sure, the Trump Organization can be hit with charges covering the last 48 months, but TFG himself?filly wrote: ↑Tue May 25, 2021 8:16 pm Nobody knows how long the grand jury has been sitting. "Recently" can mean within the last month.
Since the NYT got their hands on 20 years of tax returns, I've long suspected whatever schemes Trump & Co. had been employing would have been continued forward.
Also, too, this story was put out there today for a reason.

IANAL, but hasn't Trump claimed in legal filings that he was immune to prosecution while in office, which argues that the statute of limitations should be tolled during his time in office?Editor Korir wrote: ↑Tue May 25, 2021 8:44 pmBut if the tax schemes have been continued forward since Jan20, 2017 wouldn’t it be a practical impossibility to indict TFG for any crimes committed after 1/20/2017?
