“They are trying to get President Trump’s popularity down by constant negative press and bogus investigations.”
Spot on. The deliberate repression of conservative voices in social media and on-line is a critical aspect of this strategy. If there are no dissenting voices, a certain percentage of the voting population will accept the endlessly repeated stories that Trump is a “Russian-Colluding-Financial-Criminal-Engaged in a Cover-up™.”
Have I mentioned lately how much I hate Democrats. If not, let me say again that I loathe them. All professional politicians are scum, but Dems are the scummiest.
I wonder what percent of the country is as fed up and disgusted with these unprecedented and communist style antics by Dems, as I am.
I had my dear friend Otto Kor Wrecked change an attempt at ‘seems’ to ‘Semmelweis’....
Granted, Ignatz Semmelweis is something of a personal hero of mine (and should be one of yours) but still?
“My auto correct tries to add really weird words...”
Try dyslexia correct
I have, I wouldn't.
We used to clear all this stuff through the army of attorneys in our compliance office. It was never up to “us” to make that distinction. You might be surprised at how often we would meet our Secret Service, FBI, and State Police buddies.
Three questions:
How do they know what banks to circularize. IOW where did the lead material come from.
Second, so what is the point? Perhaps to deny Trump and his family any access to capital markets due to the potential for these witch hunts dragging the bank into an abyss.
What is the legislative purpose? The criteria for president are laid out in the constitution. No where does it say he should not be a businessman. So, any other purpose would be to do those duties of the executive branch. That was done, no collusion, no obstruction.
NOW, exactly WHO is the dictator?
Spying on our taxes. Is nothing sacred.
But of course.
They want a do-over.
As long as they don't hand over any records...no big deal and not actionable.
How many Tax Accountants will this country have for any/all of us if these records can be opened up?
They have violated his privacy and need to be put out of business.
I understand you.
Folks don’t realize that while the President can declare “Executive Privilege”, the little people and the businesses can’t.
The banks could have put up a legal fight, but even then, that would cost a lot of money, and with so many Obama judges out there, there is no certainty they’d win.
Resistance is futile for a country overrun with lawless democrats controlling the House of Representatives.
WE lost the 2018 midterms to very ill effects.
The problem here is that is not up to US (you or me) to decide, but rather the banks legal staff.
With Nadler and Shitt threatening arrest by the Sergeant at Arms and jail for contempt of Congress, plus the additional threat of $25K per day fines, it's hard for a non-Executive Privilege person or firm to say, "Nope".
It's easy for us to say fight them, but they're afraid they can't win such a fight, and to fight, it will cost them a lot.
Prove me wrong (not that they can fight, but that they'll see it our way).
Plus, they are regulated by the likes of Warren, et al.
I am sure there are statues in the regulations that would be problematic if we ever put up a stink about it. While bank regulators come at regular intervals, they have the ability (Like every federal group: OSHA, FCC, Joint Commission on Healthcare) they can show up any time they want and do an inspection. That is not something any financial institution wants to spend time on.
Let me guess, the leftys will OPPOSE that form of transparency, but only want the president’s financial info. to be able to be scrutinized, but ONLY Trump and not the former grifter that pretended to be president for 8 years.
I think you know the answer to that.
