Deutsche Bank Staff Saw Suspicious Activity in Trump and Kushner Accounts
Anti-money laundering specialists at Deutsche Bank recommended in 2016 and 2017 that multiple transactions involving legal entities controlled by Donald J. Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, be reported to a federal financial-crimes watchdog.
The transactions, some of which involved Mr. Trump’s now-defunct foundation, set off alerts in a computer system designed to detect illicit activity, according to five current and former bank employees. Compliance staff members who then reviewed the transactions prepared so-called suspicious activity reports that they believed should be sent to a unit of the Treasury Department that polices financial crimes.
But executives at Deutsche Bank, which has lent billions of dollars to the Trump and Kushner companies, rejected their employees’ advice. The reports were never filed with the government.

Outrageous and disgusting. Every day I get more pissed off at this administration.
Man, everyone kept their mouth shut in 2016.
Obama couldn't get the freakin turtle man to issue a bipartisan statement on Russian activity, so it was not made public due to political considerations.
Two mistresses were paid off right before the election and everyone kept quiet.
Deutsche Bank has red flags pinging all over the place and the people at the top keep it quiet.
List could continue but...
I'm going to go bang my head against a wall because only a*holes get breaks like this.
Pardon? War criminals? Really? Making it a little easier for summary executions? Is that what the Bernie butt hurt bros hope for? They. Don’t. Even. Know. Not a clue.
Watched a little Mayor Pete on Fox last night and wondered when the president was gonna tweet about it. And-boom. He already did two hours earlier. The most predictable two tweets in this history of social media. His act is so old
dipshit in chief. yesterday in PA. Those financials are gonna be sweeet.
DO YOU REMEMBER THAT NIGHT? 1 PERCENT LEFT AND IF I LOST EVERY SINGLE VOTE I WOULD WIN. THEY WOULD NOT DO IT. IT GOT LATER AND LATER THEN THEY ANNOUNCED MICHIGAN WISCONSIN WE WON THEN THEY FINALLY ANNOUNCED WE WON THE GREAT STATE OF PENNSYLVANIA. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] THEY HAD A HARD TIME WITH THAT ONE. THAT WE HAVE A BIG RACE TOMORROW. RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND. YOU WILL GO VOTE? AND YOU KNOW, WHO YOU ARE VOTING FOR. WE HAVE A GREAT GENTLEMAN AND VERY SUCCESSFUL FROM THE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT A DEMOCRAT RUNNING FOR THE SEAT IS A RADICAL SOCIALIST THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE ONCE YOU OPEN YOUR BORDERS WITH THE WORST LAWS THE WALL IS BEING BUILT AS WE SPEAK. [CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] 500 MILES OF WALL. BY THE END OF NEXT YEAR. [CHANTING] BUILD THE WALL. [CHANTING] BUILD THE WALL. [CHANTING] .
My president would never do such a thing. Anyone still doubting the nazi/fascist comparisons? Hey, but Team Trump Treason is okay with Pete’s husband being up on stage with him so it all works out. Even Steven.
Who are you even talking to? You know I think those comparisons are fair, and that nearly everyone else here does to. This goes back to me comparing you to a talking-head in the other thread. You're preaching to people that don't even disagree.
Wow, is that ever not true. I have been absolutely raked through the coals on here multiple times for making those kinds of comparisons. The vast majority of the posters in here think that drawing those kinds of parallels are complete insanity, and that they are "a part of the problem", lol ... Of course, I think that thinking those comparisons are insane is the real insanity, lol.

You don't have the context of Halifax carrying over a back-and-forth we were having in one of the other Trump threads to this one so I'll gloss over that.
Now have you been raked over through the coals for comparing Trump and Trumpism to Hitler and Nazism? Because that seems like a reasonable comparison. Though I don't completely agree, it's fair. Or....do you compare people that voted for Trump to Nazis? Because that's completely different and is, to a degree, part of a problem.

I have been complete lambasted repeatedly for specifically saying that there are some parallels between Trump and his admin and their political tactics and the rise of Nazism/fascism, and I have very clearly explained how, and have even posted many articles trying to explain why that's an apt parallel to be drawn, while of course making it clear that I didn't mean that Trump and Hitler are actually the same (they said they understood that, but didn't act like it!). I've literally been treated like I'm a fucking idiot for suggesting such a thing, over and over, for the past 2 years. So yes, I agree with you - it's a very, very fair and apt comparison. But I think people just have a knee-jerk emotional reaction to the comparison ... which is fucking dangerous as hell IMO. They are the ones that the line about how we have to remember to keep from making the same mistakes is for... and they reject it anyhow.

I can see both sides of this. You can compare Trump to Hitler by suggesting Trump is insane and wants to be a dictator and I think most people would see your argument. On the other hand, the very mention of terms like "Hitler" or "Nazis" often evoke thoughts of the Holocaust. And as horrible as Trump is, you can't (or at least I can't) suspect he has any sinister motives like that. Now a retort to that would be to say that during Hitler's third year as Chancellor, people didn't suspect sinister motives like that either. Fair enough. But Trump doesn't want that. He wants to be beloved by everybody. Unfortunately for him, he's only beloved by the type of people that, prior to entering politics, he would never, ever give the time of day to.
It's a complicated argument, without rehashing the whole thing. There are certainly parallels to Hitler 1933-1936/7 with how rhetoric is used, marginalizing the 'other', attacking the press, treating political opponents as enemies, etc. It goes too far if looking at the whole Third Reich of '33 to '45 which was responsible for the death of 100 million people, 6 million Jews, countless Roma, etc.
To reject the parallels between Trump and his admin and their tactics now and the rise of fascism in Germany is to plain old ignore the very real dangers of what the Trump is up to, simply because Americans don't want to associate their "great" nation with Hitler. To me, that is just playing ostrich. So I really don't see both sides of it. And of course, as I said, made VERY clear that I wasn't talking about the holocaust. Hell, like I said, I have only drawn parallels between Trump and the RISE of fascism in Germany - the political tactics used during the 1920s and 30s - not with what Nazis did during WWII. I've explained all this ad nauseam. It makes no difference, lol.

If I remember, the heated argument was about ICE and the Einsatzgruppen. I agree with the parallels of the rise, and I don't think it's the 'great' nation thing, rather that because he is just about the most evil man in human history, drawing those comparisons is really a delicate thing. It's not about 'murica, it's about not watering down the evil of Hitler.

It doesn't go too far from '33 to '39 actually. It's still apt at that point. That is exactly when the German government really started attacking and then controlling the press, and when they used all that fake propaganda to get citizens on board with them, and started treating foreigners and minorities as the enemy, as well as liberal intellectualism. There are plenty of parallels going on from '33 to the start of WWII.

Well Hitler instigated Kristallnacht in 38. So that's the lens I have on it when saying we're not there yet. We haven't had a pogrom, and God willing never will. We also haven't annexed any countries ala Sudentland, Rhineland, Austria. But we're really just splitting hairs. I think we both agree that post 39 is a different story, whereas peace time Germany has parallels.
