Natalie Mayflower Sours Edwards Went to Congress First

 From the article:
Edwards reportedly spoke with "six different congressional committee staffers to air her concerns." Then, in July and August 2018, she purportedly met with "staffers of one of the Senate committees investigating Russian interference during the presidential campaign." It was then that she claimed that FinCEN "withheld documents revealing suspicious financial transactions of Trump associates that the committee had requested." Edwards and an unnamed colleague reportedly had "lawful documented evidential disclosures of violations of law, rule, and regulations, gross mismanagement, gross waste of funds, abuse of authority, and substantial and specific danger to public safety."

You know it's bad when you are reaching all the way back to Washington and Jefferson slave-run plantations to say "but, but, but they did it, too!" 

From the article:

Trump attorneys cite Washington D.C. land records from 1793 to show that George Washington purchased "several lots of federal land" during his presidency, adding that "no concern was raised that such transactions conferred a benefit."

The DOJ goes further, however, and reaches for the slave-run plantations that Washington and Thomas Jefferson ran while in office as examples how the Constitution permits presidents to run private businesses while in office.

Strange real estate deal raises specter of Putin buying Trump - SFChronicle.com


In 1987, the Soviet ambassador to the United Nations, Yuri Dubinin, arranged for Trump and his then-wife, Ivana, to enjoy an all-expense-paid trip to Moscow to consider possible business prospects.

Only seven weeks after his trip, Trump ran full-page ads in the Boston Globe, the New York Times and the Washington Post calling for, in effect, the dismantling of the postwar Western foreign policy alliance.
