FBI Randomly Releases Trump Real Estate Investigation Records From The 1970s
The Daily Caller ^ | 15 Feb 2017 | Chuck Ross

The FBI on Wednesday released nearly 400 pages of records from an investigation it conducted on Donald Trump’s family real estate company in the early 1970s.

The documents consist of interview notes, handwritten statements and FBI reports compiled during the bureau’s investigation, which occurred between 1972 and 1974.

The FBI’s investigation centered on allegations that the Trump Management Company, which was owned by Trump’s father, Fred, discriminated against applicants for apartment rentals based on their race.

The federal lawsuit was widely reported during the presidential campaign with Democrats using the case to argue that Trump, an executive with the company at the time, is racist. The Justice Department settled with Trump Management in 1975 with the company admitting no wrongdoing but agreeing to provide more rentals to minority applicants.

The timing of the document dump is sure to raise questions given an ongoing battle between federal agencies and the Trump administration over leaks of classified information to the media.

Draining a Swamp necessarily involves dealing with many, dangerous snakes, alligators, biting insects and discomfort. DJT sought the job knowing this. God Speed.

I think there are good guys and bad guys in the intel community and the good ones saved the nation. The bad ones are trying to destroy Trump. But they are at war just as we are. My guess.

What does long deceased Fred Trump have to do with anything?

They’re obviously run out of things to throw at POTUS Donald Trump.

If this was not in response to a FOIA request then Comey should be fired.

So some EMPLOYEE of Trump decades ago did not act with sensitivity towards African Americans. I bet there were more than a few liberals who did the same thing, but of course that will never be reported. Never ending smears toward Trump. I never considered the guy perfect, but who the hell is? Why don’t they hold libs to the same standards? As govenor of Arkansas Bill Clinton fought for the Confederate flag but you never hear about that.

I guarantee you that John MccCain is behind this. He and his cohorts in the Senate are on a jihad against Trump. They must be hiding some bad things they have been up to.
