After denying any Russian meetings, wrongdoing, or collusion, the cards are falling fast for the Trump administration.
President Trump, in my opinion, will no longer be able to distance himself from inclusion into the quickly escalating drama unfolding right before our eyes. The president’s son has, after numerous months of denials and non-disclosures, not only admitted that he had contact with Russians, but the contact was in the form of high-level meetings with the sole purpose of allegedly colluding with officials representing a hostile nation to obtain information expressly to commit election fraud.
The verification of the June 9th, 2016 meeting was only made public by the President’s son as he was trying to pre-empt a New York Times article; which was scheduled to disclose emails between Don Jr. and Russian foreign agents, and released an email chain only hours earlier. The disclosure of the meeting which included four top Trump advisors, the President’s son Don Jr, his son-in-law and senior advisor Jared Kushner, and his campaign manager Paul Manafort, points to some very disturbing questions which now need to be answered. As I stated, the meeting amounts to an astonishing admission of illegal collusion to use foreign intelligence obtained through espionage against the United States to alter the outcome of a democratic election.
I believe that the following events will come to eventually prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the coverups, misstatements, secret meetings, and alleged collusion are all tied to a money laundering scheme originating in the 1990s to keep the Trump family afloat after the numerous bankruptcies and financial missteps by using Russian Oligarch money funnelled through organized crime families in New York and ultimately to the Trump organization. This is why President Trump’s income tax records were never released, why the financial records of the Trump family are off-limits to the social prosecutor, Robert Mueller, and why the Russian government has been so inclined to support Donald Trump as they have this explosive proof with which to blackmail and force their own agenda on the American President without fear of reprisals.
Trump announced to his supporters during the period he was intensifying his campaign against Hillary Clinton that he believed information would be released in the near future which would prove very destructive for the Democratic nominee.
May 2016: Internet experts ring the alarm bell after discovering that a server in the Russian Bank Alpha was repeatedly ‘pinging’ or requesting electronic contact with a server owned by the Trump corporation. An expert who was instrumental in the creation of the Internet studied the electronic ‘handshake protocol’ the server was trying to communicate with and determined that the only reason for this activity would be a request for contact in each of the 2,820 instances. The Trump organization explained to the FBI that the Trump-owned server the Russian bank was trying to contact was a mail marketing server. This explanation is highly suspect and in my opinion, not credible.
June 14th, 2016: Reports begin to surface that the Democratic National Congress (DNC) had been hacked and early reports pointed towards the likely perpetrator being cybercriminals organized or working directly for the Russian Government.
July 27th, 2016: Donald Trump states during a news conference, “Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you can find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press”. Then on Twitter, within days of this unprecedented request to perpetrate espionage against the United States by a foreign nation, he writes, ‘If Russia or any other Country or person has Hillary Clinton’s emails, perhaps they should show them to the FBI.’
August 2nd, 2016: Roger Stone, the political advisor to Donald Trump was confirmed to have had electronic communications with the alleged Guccifer 2.0, the suspected perpetrator of the DNC hacking scandal. The contact was first reported by the Washington Post. Guccifer 2.0 is widely believed to be the name used by Russian Military Intelligence within their cyber-espionage unit. Roger Stone commented on Twitter after his contact with Guccifer that Hillary Clinton was done, among other concerning texts.
August 14th, 2016: The New York Times uncovers evidence that 127 million dollars are earmarked for Trump’s campaign manager, Paul Manafort by a Russian-linked political party. Paul Mananfort was unbelievably Vladimir Putin’s image consultant before working with the Trump campaign.
August 19th, 2016: Immediately following the NYT explosive disclosure, Paul Manafort resigns from the Trump campaign.
September 26th, 2016: Foreign policy advisor, Carter Page, who met on numerous occasions with Russian undercover agents and Intelligence Officers, resigns. Trump defines Carter Page as an insignificant individual within the campaign even though he was referred to as the campaign's foreign policy advisor in June 2016. Carter Page had been a person of interest for the FBI and CIA for months as his actions were highly suspicious.
October 17th, 2016: Donald Trump gives an interview to David Letterman where he bragged that a lot of money has come from Russia to fund the Trump Corporation at a time when it was most needed.
December 20, 2016: General Flynn and Jared Kushner meet with Russian ambassador and Intelligence Officer, Sergey Kislyak at the Trump Tower.
December 26th, 2016: The Russian KGB Agent who allegedly assisted the British MI6 Agent, Christopher Steele, in the compilation of the Russia Dossier, is found dead in the back seat of his car.
January 10th, 2016: British Intelligence MI6 Agent’s Dossier of allegations compiled against Donald Trump from the Miss America Pageant held in Russia in 2013, is made public and all 35 pages are published in full by BuzzFeed. Some of the allegations of the Dossier have been corroborated by other Western Intelligence Agencies to date, while some of the most explosive and salacious allegations of disturbing sexual exploits within the Moscow Ritz-Carlton Hotel are, as of yet unverified.
February 3, 2017: The Attorney General of New York (who replaced the former Attorney General fired by Trump) announced that he will continue the previous work completed on the Federal RICO crime investigation into money laundering charges against Donald Trump.
One of the individuals who attended the Russian Meeting at Trump Tower is tied to a massive money laundering investigation as the individual who set up hundreds of fake bank accounts used in the laundering conspiracy.
March 31st, 2017: Trump University fraud case is settled out of court for 25 million after the President loses a bid to postpone the proceeding due to his belief he was protected from prosecution as president.
May 9th, 2017: President Trump fires the FBI director, James Comey while he is in California, by sending a representative to the FBI headquarters in Washington with the order. James Comey finds out about his departure from news reports.
May 10th, 2017: Trumps brags to the Russian Ambassador, Sergey Kislyak, that he fired the FBI Director James Comey as he failed to drop the Russia Investigation.
July 2017: President Trump unbelievably warns the special prosecutor, Robert Mueller, that Trump family financial records are off-limit to his investigation.
July 2017: The St. Jude Charity Golf Tournament is surrounded in controversy as it becomes evident that it has redirected donations to profit the Trump Corporation and may have illegally diverted other funds to Trump charities, allegedly breaking federal laws against self-dealing.
July 2017: The President meets with Vladimir Putin for almost an hour during a UN Dinner without any Americans present or American translators. The meeting is only made public after a news report weeks later. The most unnerving part of the meeting beyond how destabilizing the meeting would appear to be for the United States’ allies is within days of the undocumented meeting the President of the United States changed American foreign policy in Syria by deciding not to fund Syrian Rebels. This departure from foreign policy is a major win for Vladimir Putin in his support for the President and dictator of the Syrian regime and for Russian influence in the Middle East and points to blackmail and further collusion.
As I have expressed, there are so many pieces of previously unknown information which are now coalescing and bonding to form a most disturbing and unprecedented picture of corruption and scandal and now clearly identifying an explosive culmination of the emperor-like reign of the 45th President of the United States of America.
The views are my own and are based on my own experiences and are written from personal insights and observations.
