Former Senior Member Of Mueller Probe Explains Investigation Into Trump

[dHolbach]

Time for one of the biggest criminals in history to finally face some justice for decades of crime. The system is broken when it takes this long for justice...assuming it will actually be done.

[bigblue]

Somewhat ironic that his kids did not want him to be president. Maybe he should have listened to them as they are all going to pay for it.

[vogparis]

His father told him not to leave Queens, Sheepshead Bay and Coney Island. Big doofus shoulda listened to old Fred.

[spiceyhotpot]

Dumpster is going to find out that you can't buy loyalty forever, especially when you are well known to not give it back

[damiendarko]

Same folks talking about "cleaning the streets" and "we love our law enforcement" crying about law enforcement... "how dare you investigate me, YOU are the corrupt one!"

[gwlynch]

Trump will soon realize the reckoning that he never has had to FOR HIS OWN

[Ganiscol]

They all need to lawyer up because donnie has ordered a big bus...

[afre]

Funny reminds me of how they finally could convict another gangster. Al Capone went to jail for tax evasion

[claudermiller]

It's assumed wealthy developers are fudging their taxes but Eric Garner died for untaxed cigarettes.

[LK-bzsk]

Weiselberg going to sing louder that Rudy and Joel Greenberg put together on karaoke night.

[ks]

When the NY AG and DA get together on a case . . . . we know it's BIG. This is a RICO-type case, no doubt about it.

[archiemitchell]

Methinks that Trumpy can NOT spin out this court case in the hope that the other side will concede thinking that its costing more than its worth!!!

[mrrodgerspoliticalplaytime]

The trump family are about to go through some 😎

[bwell]

“those with nothing to hide hide nothing”-unknown

[rhimeralemuse]

Great answer to ‘It is what it is’ by Il Ducé Don, Alan spoke to the ‘Deal Maker’, by saying ‘You are where yo are’; let’s prey ‘You can run but not hide’!

[heartstrings]

To go from a Civil case to a Criminal one along with this kind of Coverage could only mean one thing after all these months.
Cy and Leticia James have Proof. It will be in the best interest of Weisselberg to cooperate since his son is also part of the investigation.
For Donnie to Respond with a 12 paragraph letter shows he is Scared and aware he is in deep Trouble.
Bring on the Indictments and Arrests!!!

[LardGreystoke]

Just wait till they get hold of his golf scores.

[sharithompson]

Omg that photo of the three of them looks like a promotion pic for a really bad mafia B movie

[curlykipper]

Allen Weisselberg is going to regret not having retired earlier. I can't imagine how stressed he must be from the whole saga. Neither jail time nor stress-related heart failure is something to look forward to at over 70 years old.

[patp]

Really! Trump gave people gifts. That doesn't sound correct he's a taker not a giver
