Mueller subpoenas Trump's Deutsche bank records

[Jacque67 7,328]

Special prosecutor Robert Mueller zeroed in on President Donald Trump’s business dealings with Deutsche Bank AG as his investigation into alleged Russian meddling in U.S. elections widens.

 

Mueller issued a subpoena to Germany’s largest lender several weeks ago, forcing the bank to submit documents on its relationship with Trump and his family, according to a person briefed on the matter, who asked not to be identified because the action has not been announced.

 

“Deutsche Bank always cooperates with investigating authorities in all countries,” the lender said in a statement to Bloomberg Tuesday, declining to provide additional information.

 

Deutsche Bank for months has rebuffed calls by Democratic lawmakers to provide more transparency over the roughly $300 million Trump owed to the bank for his real estate dealings prior to becoming president. Representative Maxine Waters of California and other Democrats have asked whether the bank’s loans to Trump, made years before he ran for president, were in any way connected to Russia. The bank previously rejected those demands, saying sharing client data would be illegal unless it received a formal request to do so. Trump has denied any wrongdoing.

 

Calls and emails to the White House weren’t immediately returned before U.S. office hours. Handelsblatt reported the subpoena earlier Tuesday.

Donald Trump’s personal banking information has formally been turned over to Robert Mueller, the special prosecutor who is investigating whether the president’s campaign conspired with the Kremlin during the 2016 presidential election.

Bloomberg reported early on Tuesday that Deutsche Bank, the German bank that serves as Trump’s biggest lender, had been forced to submit documents about its client relationship with the president after Mueller issued the bank with a subpoena for information.

The new revelation makes it clear that Mueller and his team are investigating the president’s financial transactions. It is not clear whether Mueller is interested in the bank accounts because they are connected to the Russia probe or if he is investigating another matter.

Damn fireworks?  I would be happy to see the tax returns that line up with these bank records

Unlikely Trump will release his tax returns. They may reveal the huge crook he is and he might end up in jail.

What is Mueller doing here? Does he have a dart board with all of the people and businesses Trump is associated with then he throws a dart and wherever it lands that who gets a subpoena this week?

The only way I would be nervous is if I was standing next to the dart board while he is throwing darts. Annoyed is a better word to use here. I am annoyed by the $5 million spent and wasted time on this dragnet.

I wish I had a dollar for every time I re-explained that collecting the back taxes and fines from this investigation are more than going to cover Mueller's team.  You also would not have a subpoena unless you had evidence that convinced a federal judge that there was the potential for a crime there.

Mueller's investigation: $3,200,000+ Benghazi committee: $7,000,000+ Trump's golfing trips: $83,000,000+ New debt from GOP tax scam: $1,000,000,000,000+

Even if what you are saying is true which it isn't the scope of this investigation is alleged Russian collusion (which there still hasn't been a shred of evidence produced proving this) not back taxes.

 Collusion is not a crime, conspiracy to aid and abet enemies of this country is.
