‘Significant Evidence of Fraud’ – Stalinist New York Attorney General Says Trump Misled Banks, Tax Officials

New York Attorney General Letitia James late Tuesday night told a court its investigators uncovered ‘significant evidence of fraud’ as part of a civil fraud probe into whether the Trump Organization inflated values of some of its properties.

Letitia James’ investigators claimed in the filing it had “developed significant additional evidence indicating that the Trump Organization used fraudulent or misleading asset valuations to obtain a host of economic benefits, including loans, insurance coverage, and tax deductions.”

Recall, Letitia James was seen on video cursing and threatening President Trump after she won her election in November 2018.

“Oh, we’re definitely going to sue him [Trump]. We’re going to be a real pain in the ass. He’s going to know my name personally.” Letitia James told a reporter.

James has followed through with her threat and now she’s gunning for Don Jr. and Ivanka as well.

According to court documents filed earlier this month, Donald Trump’s two children were subpoenaed on December 1.

Letitia James used her findings to force Trump, Don Jr., and Ivanka to comply with her subpoena seeking testimony (perjury trap).

AP reported:

The New York attorney general’s office late Tuesday told a court its investigators have uncovered evidence that former President Donald Trump’s company used “fraudulent or misleading” asset valuations to get loans and tax benefits.

The court filing said state authorities haven’t yet decided whether to bring a lawsuit in connection with the allegations, but that investigators need to question Trump and his two eldest children as part of the probe.

In the court documents, Attorney General Letitia James’ office gave its most detailed accounting yet of a long-running investigation of allegations that Trump’s company exaggerated the value of assets to get favorable loan terms, or misstated what land was worth to slash its tax burden.

The Trump Organization, it said, had overstated the value of land donations made in New York and California on paperwork submitted to the IRS to justify several million dollars in tax deductions.

When giving estimates of Trump’s wealth, the company misreported the size of his Manhattan penthouse, saying it was nearly three times its actual size — a difference in value of about $200 million, James’ office said, citing deposition testimony from Trump’s longtime financial chief Allen Weisselberg, who was charged last year with tax fraud in a parallel criminal investigation.

Prince Andrew deletes social media accounts

The Duke of York has greatly reduced his online profile

Prince Andrew has deleted his Twitter and YouTube accounts after being stripped of his royal title.

On Wednesday, the prince’s staff purged his social media profiles. People searching for the Duke of York's official Twitter page, @thedukeofyork, were given the message “this account doesn't exist - try searching for another.”

Those searching for Andrew’s YouTube account, @thedukeofyork, were greeted with the message: “This page isn’t available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else.”

The prince’s Facebook and Instagram accounts both remain live, although his Instagram page is now private.

A source told the Mail Online that none of his social media accounts were live but that some of them remained online while the tech firms processed the closure request.

The social media purge comes after Buckingham Palace announced that Andrew’s “military affiliations and Royal patronages” were returned to Queen Elizabeth last week. He will now face a lawsuit in the US, linked to late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, as a private citizen.

The embattled prince was also the focus of an ITV documentary on Tuesday evening in which his ex-girlfriend Lady Victoria Hervey claimed that Epstein and former US President Bill Clinton “were like brothers” and loved being around Andrew.

Hervey also said deceased sex offender Epstein had his ‘madam’ Ghislaine Maxwell “sort of go fishing” for girls for his former royal highness.

US Giving Ukraine $200M More In Military Aid As Blinken Talks "Diplomacy"

On Wednesday Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky thanked US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during the latter's trip and meeting with Ukraine's leaders in Kiev for an additional $200 million in military aid. The new aid for weapons and other military hardware was first revealed as being approved in December, but finally confirmed this week.

Zelensky told Blinken during their Wednesday meeting, which specifically came in response to the Russian forces build-up near Ukraine's border: “This [military] support not only speaks to our strategic plans of Ukraine joining the alliance, but more importantly to the level of our military, our military supplies." The Ukrainian leaders was of course referencing Kiev's desire to be fast-tracked into NATO, which has been they key source of contention, particularly during last week's largely unsuccessful Russia-NATO dialogue.

Zelensky stressed further according to the AP: "If we want dramatically fast steps in modernizing the military, we need help especially in these tough times." He added. while addressing Blinken, "Your visit is very important. It underlines once again your powerful support of our independence and sovereignty."

Blinken in turn claimed that a Russian invasion could come at any moment. He affirmed the US stands ready to help - though stopping short of any direct pledge of sending troops - in such a scenario as a Russian offensive. "The Ukrainian people chose a democratic and European path in 1991. They took to the Maidan to defend that choice in 2013, and unfortunately ever since you have faced relentless aggression from Moscow," he said.

The top US diplomat added: "Our strength depends on preserving our unity and that includes unity within Ukraine. I think one of Moscow’s long-standing goals has been to try to sow divisions between and within our countries and quite simply, we cannot and will not let them do that."

While the FBI hunts patriotic Americans, China’s “Scientific Double Agents” Operate Freely in U.S. Universities

While the FBI hunts patriotic Americans, China’s “Scientific Double Agents” Operate Freely in U.S. Universities

One could call them Scientific Double Agents, those who appear to be working for the United States, but who simultaneously work for China.

They are the thousands of scientists trained in the People’s Republic of China, who have established themselves in laboratories in the United States, some becoming American citizens, but ostensibly maintaining allegiance to China.

They use U.S. taxpayer funding to conduct collaborative research with scientists in China, some of which are from the People’s Liberation Army.

Thus, they are, de facto, providing a subsidy to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) research programs, including biowarfare.

George Mason University’s National Center for Biodefense and Infectious Diseases, located just a few miles from CIA headquarters, has been heavily funded by the U.S. Department of Defense.

Yuntao Wu is a faculty member in the National Center for Biodefense and Infectious Diseases.
