Prosecutors unlikely to charge Trump Org executives, sources say
CNN ^

Posted on 07/12/2019 3:52:12 PM PDT by springwater13

A federal investigation into whether Trump Organization executives violated campaign-finance laws appears to be wrapping up without charges being filed, according to people familiar with the matter.

For months, federal prosecutors in New York have examined whether company officials broke the law, including in their effort to reimburse Michael Cohen for hush-money payments he made to women alleging affairs with his former boss, President Donald Trump.

In recent weeks, however, their investigation has quieted, the people familiar with the inquiry said, and prosecutors now don't appear poised to charge any Trump Organization executives in the probe that stemmed from the case against Cohen.

A spokesman for the Manhattan US Attorney's office declined to comment. An attorney for the Trump Organization declined to comment.

The campaign finance was always nonsense. Cohen only plead to the charge because SDNY wanted to embarass Trump. It was never a crime and he was even caught on tape with Tom Arnold saying it wasn’t a crime. He went to jail for his tax evasion and Taxi Cab frauds that had nothing to do with Trump.

Remember that they are just following the review of any questionable actions by anyone associated with Trump, similarly to the review of Obama’s associates........... never mind.

No evidence?

Don’t commies just make something up when there’s no evidence?

After all, wasn’t it Beria who said: “Show me the man and I’ll show you the crime.”

Trump’s businesses are probably among the cleanest and law abiding in the whole country after a 3 year anal probing and they found nothing they could charge him with.

Nothing.

The dims will disagree and start their own investigation. There may even be a fed judge who already disagrees with this.

Sounds like there's nothing going on, maybe.

This story is obviously impossible. I’ve paid attention to the news and they’ve assured me every day for a year that Trump was going to go for prison for paying off the ho, and this would magically cause Hillary instead of Pence to become President.

Can’t we put the clamps on this nonsense once and for all?

The loy-yas are getting filthy rich doing this. I say these are ill-gotten gains.
