FBI conducts raid on two Russian businessmen's condo at Trump Towers in Florida city dubbed 'Little Moscow'
Daily Mail ^ | 5.14.2023 | Melissa Koenig

The FBI has reportedly raided a Florida condo owned by two Russian businessmen at the Trump Towers on Sunny Beach Isles.

The target of the search, according to the Miami Herald, was a unit owned by the shell company MIC-USA LLC, which is controlled by Russian businessmen Oleg Sergeyevich Patsulya and Agunda Konstantinova Makeeva.

It is unclear what exactly the FBI and local police may have been searching for in the raid and whether law enforcement officials seized any property or took anyone into custody.

In a statement to the Herald, a spokesperson for the FBI's Miami field office only said it was 'conducting court-ordered law enforcement activity in the vicinity of that location' but provided no other information.

The hunt for anything they can find to pin on Trump and get him off the ballot won’t stop until next year’s election.

“The hunt for anything they can find to pin on Trump and get him off the ballot won’t stop until next year’s election.”

Maybe Trump was not the target.

Who is the governor of the state, where this happened?

Is that where they put all of the data on the ‘fake’ Hunter Biden laptop? Is that also where Trump went to consult with his Russian ‘masters’? (trotted downstairs everyday with a blond wig and fake tits on?) //sarc//

Wealthy Russians have parked their money in 'ghost condos' all over a Miami neighborhood

"These condos are owned and never used and always dark," said Daniel Gielchinsky, attorney at DGIM Law, PLLC in nearby Aventura, Florida, who handles many real estate litigation and bankruptcy cases in the area. "You will see lots and lots of dark windows in these beautiful buildings."

With its sunshine and palm trees, Sunny Isles Beach has long been a magnet for wealthy foreign investors. Several real estate agents in the area told Insider they've worked with many buyers from Europe and Latin America, particularly Germany and Brazil. But the city, nicknamed "Little Moscow," has also seen a lot of Russian money flow through its economy. In recent years, Florida saw the most Russian property purchases in the US. They could become targets for sanctions as the US looks to target powerful Russians who support Putin's war in Ukraine, and many in the area are anxiously awaiting more information on how their wealth will be affected.

As Gielchinsky explained to Insider, these properties are often owned by shell or holding companies, a method that helps wealthy buyers shield true ownership of a property. He said he's been inside unfurnished apartments in these condos, which have no tenants.

"They're called ghost condos because no one ever lives there," he said. "They're purchased, and a few years later they're sold. And in the period in between, no one even goes and puts in a new light bulb."

A ghost condo is a way to hold and hide money

It is quiet possible that the American Stasi (FBI) is investigating a thought crime.
Just wait.
The American Stasi (FBI) and the media will try to tie this to Trump. After all he owns the building.

This is normal reporting. They have always reported on who owns a building something happens in. /s

A couple of decades ago, the rich Japanese bought homes
from Victoria/Vancouver,and Washington/Oregon/California coastal cities and made them ghost homes. When their national economy crashed, they bailed out of their ghost homes.

“They’re called ghost condos because no one ever lives there,” he said. “They’re purchased, and a few years later they’re sold. And in the period in between, no one even goes and puts in a new light bulb.”

Biden is silencing the witnesses to Congressional Investigators about Bidens influence peddling payments.

Threatening witnesses is an old BIden game. The man is a thug. And the FBI is now an organized crime agency working for the Dems.
