Another huge Euro bust happening. Over $200 BILLION of laundered money. Is it just me? Or does it appear that the deep state sources of money are drying up?

~~~~~ARTICLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ex-Danske CEO Borgen charged over money laundering case: report

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-danske-bank-moneylaundering-idUSKCN1SD1P3

“Danish prosecutors have charged Thomas Borgen, former chief executive of Danske Bank, over his involvement in one of the world’s biggest money laundering scandals, newspaper Borsen reported on Tuesday, citing his lawyer.

Borgen is the first person to be charged in a case that involves suspicious transactions of some 200 billion euros ($224 billion) that passed through Danske Bank’s Estonian branch between 2007 and 2015.

Denmark’s biggest bank is being investigated by authorities in several other countries including the United States, where it could face major fines…”

“Prosecutors raided Borgen’s home on March 12, the report quoted the lawyer as saying.”

“Denmark’s state prosecutor filed preliminary charges against Danske Bank itself in November for alleged violations of the country’s anti-money laundering act in relation to its Estonian branch. The prosecutor said at the time he would clarify whether individuals could be held responsible.

The money laundering scandal has spread to Sweden where Swedbank in March dismissed its chief executive over allegations its Baltic accounts were used to launder money.”

Now on Instagram. I see a commenter said, "Better enjoy it while you can, Traitor" and I wonder what it's like for the DS now, when the little people are "allowed" to say things to them they never had to hear before.

FOIA Documents Show Evidence of Weissmann/Mueller Entrapment Scheme…

Recently release FOIA documents into the special counsel team of Robert Mueller reveal the remarkable trail of a 2017 entrapment scheme conducted by Prosecutor Andrew Weissmann to target George Papadopoulos.

[Hat Tip to Undercover Huber and Rosie Memos who have been reviewing documents.]

https://twitter.com/JohnWHuber/status/1127194023213654021
https://twitter.com/almostjingo/status/1126941134738022400

Before digging into the details it is important to note this is a DOJ/FBI entrapment operation being conducted in 2017 by the special counsel; this is not prior to the 2016 election. The detail surrounds a series of events previously discussed {Go Deep} where George Papadopoulos was approached by a known CIA operative named Charles Tawil.

In 2017 George Papadopoulos and his wife Simona were approached in Greece by a known CIA/FBI operative, Charles Tawil. Mr. Tawil enlisted George as a business consultant, under the auspices of energy development interests, and invited him to Israel.

On June 8th, 2017, in Israel under very suspicious circumstances, where Papadopoulos felt very unnerved, Mr. Tawil hands him $10,000 in cash for future consultancy based on a $10k/month retainer.

On June 9th, 2017, according to his book, Papadopoulos and Tawil fly back to Cyprus.

In interviews Papadopoulos said he was uncomfortable with the way the encounters had taken place. He became suspect of Tawil’s motives; something didn’t feel right. Instead of keeping the cash, Papadopoulos gave the money to an attorney in Greece before traveling back to the U.S. on July 27th, 2017.

Upon arrival at Dulles airport on July 27th, 2017, Robert Mueller had FBI agents waiting. Papadopoulos was stopped and his bags were searched; however, he did not have the cash because he smartly left it in Greece with his lawyer. Papadopoulos was detained overnight by FBI agents, and questioned.

[…] Stanley said Papadopoulos arrived on a Lufthansa flight from Munich that touched down at about 7 p.m. on July 27, and the FBI intercepted him as soon as he got off the plane.

“He was arrested [detained] before he got to Customs and he was then held at the airport before being brought to a law enforcement office,” Stanley recalled. (link)

According to Politico:

[W]hen he was arrested [detained] at Dulles Airport on July 27 after coming off a flight from Munich, prosecutors had no warrant for him and no indictment or criminal complaint. The complaint would be filed the following morning and approved by Howell in Washington.

And when prosecutors filed the complaint the next day they got a spoken order from Howell to seal it, but followed up with a written request that they could take to the magistrate in Alexandria, where they showed up almost an hour later than she expected.

All of it suggests something of a scramble, rather than a carefully prepared plan to take Papadopoulos into custody. (more)

Here’s where the recent revelations come in. According to Andrew Weissmann’s schedule on June 13th, 2017, he was in conversations surrounding the basis of a Cyprus Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty (MLAT):

So overlaying the timeline:

6/8/17 US intelligence asset Charles Tawil gives George $10K cash in Israel

6/9/17 George Papadopoulos flies to Cyprus w $10K

6/13/17 Andrew Weissmann starts series of “Cyprus MLAT” meetings with FBI

6/13/17 Andrew Weissmann phone call w/ FBI Money Laundering and Asset Recovery “MLARS” section of FBI.

It would appear Weissmann was well aware of the Cyprus “Tawil operation” and engaged in communication regarding Cyprus. Additionally, he was discussing “Money Laundering and Asset Recovery” w/ FBI. [MLARS Link]

Taken in combination with hindsight of the search for the cash, and lack of a pre-existing warrant at the airport, this is clear evidence of a coordinated operation to entrap Papadopoulos.

Remember, the preferred approach toward targeting Paul Manafort, Mike Flynn and George Papadopoulos surrounded FARA (Foreign Agent Registration Act) lobbying violations. Papadopoulos has stated the special counsel threatened him with charges of acting as a unregistered agent for Israel. There’s a clear picture here.

#1) Papadopoulos was lured to Israel and paid in Israel to give the outline of a FARA premise (ie. Papadopoulos is an agent of Israel). #2) Bringing $10,000 (or more) in cash into the U.S., without reporting, is a violation of U.S. treasury laws. Add into that aspect the FARA violation and the money can be compounded into #3) laundering charges.

[A “laundering” charge applies if the money is illegally obtained. The FARA violation would be the *illegal* aspect making the treasury charges heavier. Note: the use of the airport baggage-check avoids the need for a search warrant.]

Andrew Weissmann was conducting an entrapment scheme that would have ended up with three violations of law: (1) Treasury violation; (2) FARA violation; (3) Money laundering…. All it needed was Papadopoulos to carry the undeclared cash into the U.S.

However, because Papadopoulos suspected something, and left the money in Greece with his lawyers, upon arrival at the airport the operation collapsed in reverse. No money means no treasury violation, no laundering and no evidence of the consultancy agreement (which would have been repurposed in the DOJ filing to mean lobbying for Israel via Mr. Tawil who would have become a confidential informant and witness).

That operational collapse is why the FBI agents were “scrambling” at the airport and why they had no pre-existing criminal complaint. The entrapment’s success was contingent upon the cash.

Lastly, to repeat, this entire scenario was constructed by the DOJ/FBI team operation in 2017. The members of the Special Counsel were running the entrapment operation; the FBI agents were participating in the operation. This is not *investigating* criminal conduct; this is manufacturing criminal conduct.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein was in charge of the Mueller Special Counsel.

The only way DAG Rosenstein and Robert Mueller didn’t know about the operation is if they both claim that Andrew Weissmann was completely rogue and in control over the FBI agents.

Oh, wait, what does the Mueller report say about the FBI agents and their chain-of-legal guidance and command?

o according to the apologists, Rod Rosenstein, Robert Mueller, current FBI legal counsel Dana Boente and current FBI Director Chris Wray were what?… Hoodwinked?

Yeah, ok. Sure.

I digress.

I’m guessing no one ever called you a sass box or hellion when you were little?

Those were my mother’s nicknames for me. LOL.

You be sassy all you want sugar.

Being a sass box is one of my finest qualities, that and southern speak.

it takes practice, but one can stay in their 40’s indefinitely.
It’s all a matter of accurate counting.

We all know 10 comes after 9.

Hence 49, 40-10, 40-11 etc...

(h/t 8ch)

So if this DOJ indictment was already given the once over, I missed it and I apologize in advance for any duplication. The date of the COPY is May 6th, 2019 but I haven't found a date of origination:

https://www.justice.gov/opa/press-release/file/1161696/download

 

Here's the section regarding persons involved. It's foreigners contributing to Candidate A's 2012 presidential campaign:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And here's a little more about what they are accused of:

 

COUNT ONE
(Conspiracy)
23. The Grand Jury incorporates paragraphs 1 through 22 of this Indictment as though
fully set forth herein.
24. From in or about June 2012 to in or about June 2015, in the District of Columbia
and elsewhere, the defendants PRAKAZREL MICHEL and JHO LOW, knowingly conspired
with each other and with others known and unknown to the Grand Jury to:
a. Knowingly defraud the United States by impairing, obstructing, and
defeating the lawful functions of a department or agency of the United States; to wit, the FEC's
ability to administer federal regulations concerning source and dollar restrictions in federal
elections, including the prohibitions applicable to foreign nationals and straw donors.
b. Knowingly and willfully make foreign contributions and independent
expenditures, directly and indirectly, aggregating to $25,000 and more in a calendar year, in

5
Object of the Conspiracy
25. The object of the conspiracy was for MICHEL and JHO LOW to gain access to,

money from JHO LOW through MICHEL and other straw donors to Political Committees A and
B, all while concealing from the committees, the FEC, the public, and law enforcement the true
source of the money.
