We have the strongest economy in the entire world.

And it sometimes seems like 50% of our economy is just fraud.

We could all be so much richer if the powerful people would just stop stealing.

So a Muslim wife has a husband who owned a winery, which is not supportive by rules of Muslims...

I guess, elites can do their own rules...

reading the article the investors did not mind the fraud and make charges?

So, money laundering or potential money laundering.

---- "...selling empty barrels to investors under the guise of 'wine to be aged'."

Kudos to this jackass, who has taken the con of selling bottles of snake oil to a new height. Selling snake oil without actually any snake oil in the bottles.

Funny none of the investors who got empty barrels complained or sued.

It’s almost like they knew that the empty barrels meant something else...

Selling empty barrels of wine is how Omar complies with Sharia law that prohibits the consumption of alcohol.

Wineries are a new, and ingenious, political method of money-laundering.

It’s far better than “artwork,” (Hunter Biden) as any possible evidence (ie. wine) can claim to be have been consumed.

Female politicians used to write “children’s books” to launder $$. Everyone has done it, from Hillary and Chelsea Clinton to Kamala Harris, Kirsten Gillibrand and the former mayor of Baltimore! They could fill libraries with these fake books!

Even Dems realized that a fake children’s book from the low IQ migrant Ilhan Omar was simply too unbelievable.

no one in their right mind would buy wine “futures” from “Schmanko’s Winery”; that sort of activity is makes sense only for long-established winerys with a VERY long history of producing amazing vintages that have a long established market of very expensive prices ...

therefore, this whole deal is obviously nothing more than some kind of money laundering scheme ...

These two should be in prison. But, like so many others who belong to THE CLUB ("..it's all a big club and you don't belong..."), this too shall simply be ignored.

"Lock her up!" "Hunter's Laptop!!" "The Autopen!!"

Ad infinitum

Man Bites Dog!

Is there a website that will tell you if the muslim business you are engaging with is is an honest one? Or are all muslim transactions just assumed to have a nefarious angle of some sort?

All cultures ARE NOT the same.
