Trump threatens Mueller

Mr. Trump said Mr. Mueller was running an office rife with conflicts of interest and warned that investigators would cross a red line if they delve into Trump family finances unrelated to Russia. Mr. Trump never said he would order the Justice Department to fire Mr. Mueller, nor would he outline circumstances under which he might do so. But he left open the possibility as he expressed deep grievance over an investigation that has taken a political toll in the six months since he took office.

Deutsche Bank is being investigated

Banking regulators are reviewing hundreds of millions of dollars in loans made to Mr. Trump's businesses through Deutsche Bank's private wealth management unit, which caters to an ultrarich clientele, according to three people briefed on the review who were not authorized to speak publicly. The regulators want to know if the loans might expose the bank to heightened risks. Separately, Deutsche Bank has been in contact with federal investigators about the Trump accounts, according to two people briefed on the matter. And the bank is expecting to eventually have to provide information to Robert S. Mueller III, the special counsel overseeing the federal investigation into the Trump campaign's ties to Russia

Bobby 3 Sticks won't be deterred.

There's one more thing we know: Robert S. Mueller III's investigation has the resources it needs and won't be deterred by the spin from the White House and Fox News that this is all much ado about nothing. Among other things, Mueller will probably pry from Trump what he worked so hard to conceal: Not just his tax returns as specific documents, but also the secrets and revelations contained therein, wherever they might lead. In the end, it may all turn out to be squeaky-clean. But I wouldn't bet on it.

Sinister implications

Note that merely six months into Trump's presidency, the likely explanations for his conduct now reside on the decidedly more sinister end of the spectrum. Or, at least, if you're inclined to favor the less sinister side of the spectrum, you now have to account for the known actions of individuals at the center of the campaign that seem more consistent with the theories at the more sinister end of it

Trump's meeting with Putin a "national security breach"

Bremmer said Trump got up from his seat halfway through dinner and spent about an hour talking "privately and animatedly" with Putin, "joined only by Putin's own translator." The lack of a U.S. translator raised eyebrows among other leaders at the dinner, said Bremmer, who called it a "breach of national security protocol."

Trump's desire to please Putin seen as confusing

Pretty much everyone at the dinner thought this was really weird, that here is the president of the United States, who clearly wants to display that he has a better relationship personally with President Putin than any of us, or simply doesn't care," said Ian Bremmer, president of the Eurasia Group, a Washington-based research and consulting firm, who said he heard directly from attendees. "They were flummoxed, they were confused and they were startled. 92

$230 million Money Laundering case forcefully settled for $6 million!

The facts underlying the Prevezon case-including the death of Sergei Magnitsky, the Russian lawyer who uncovered the fraud, in a Russian prison-led to the passage of unprecedented sanctions against the Russian officials thought to be complicit. Nevertheless, two days before trial was set to begin, the Department agreed to settle this $230 million case for less than $6 million and no admission of wrongdoing. Ms. Veselnitskaya told one Russian news outlet that the penalty was so light that it seemed "almost an apology from the government." 95

It's easy to launder money!

A Congressional inquiry has found that it s "relatively easy" for foreigners to hide their identities and form shell companieS here that can launder money through American banks. In a a nine-month inguiry that subpoenaed bank records, the investigators found that an unknown number of Russians and other East Europeans moved more than $1.4 bilion through accounts at Citibank of New York and the Commercial Bank of San Francisco The accounts had been opened by Irakly Kaveladze, who immigrated to the United States from Russia in 1991, according to Citibank and Mr. Kaveladze. He set up more than 2,000 corporations in Delaware for Russian brokers and then opened the bank accounts for them, without knowing who owned the corporations, according to the report by the General Accounting Office, which has not been made public.
