Once again, just want to welcome LibDerp Nation to the roles of those concerned about foreign investment with those engaged in the political process . . . welcome, you are about 2 decades late, but welcome none-the-less.

seems like it has probably been a concern for more than two decades but idk

The entire Russia/corruption story is going to be a hell of a book someday.

this story doesn't qualify in that regard. other than that the kushners should have had to divest before entering government.

TBD. I forgot to mention that the tweet is the start of a thread.

On June 2016, Russians allegedly offer Trump associates a massive payout derived from the commissions on Russia’s sale of 19.5% of state energy giant Rosneft ($11 billion), in return for lifting sanctions. Weeks after the election, Flynn and Kushner are in contact with Russian officials. Then Russia sells a 19.5% stake in Rosneft in a concealed deal, eventually revealed to be with Qatar. Immediately after the deal, a Qatari diplomat allegedly met with Cohen and Flynn at Trump Tower.

i'm saying that the brookfield acquisition of 666 5th ave does not appear to have been corrupt nor influenced by qatari foreign policy.

yeah, i read the story. i don't believe that they didn't know about the transaction before it occurred. however, there is no evidence that brookfield paid above market rate, and the idea that brookfield would place the interests of a 9% owner of a subsidiary over their own interests or the interests of their other minority owners is pretty laughable.

I both agree that Brookfield wouldn't do something not in its own interest and also think the deal is fishy.

I never spent any time in this thread, after 323 pages have you guys figured out that this was a witch hunt like T-dawg told you it was yet?

SysWhackadoo and the rest of the LibDerps need to start a separate foreign real estate holdings and investment thread.

This thread is about the president. Who is engaged in confronting Russia on levels the previous administration could never imagine.

chum1 · « **Reply #8660 on:** February 13, 2019, 06:43:27 AM »

I think SysWhackadoo should be free to discuss itt anything currently under investigation by the Special Counsel.

What does it feel like to want something so bad that you allow yourself to fall prey to propaganda from media, social media, and leaders of your own party in a scheme to topple an American President only to find out for sure that you have been willingly manipulated to whole time?

You guys cry about Crimea, which your guy got absolutely destroyed on, and now your asking those kinds of questions?

It still blows my mind that some people won’t recognize that their guy orchestrated all kinds of bad things targeted at enemies and all they did was make excuses.
