A Judge is backing the feds in a mystery case that many legal experts have speculated is linked to the Mueller probe. The case involves a secret entity trying to defy a Grand Jury subpoena. Watergate Prosecutor Nick Akerman says he believes that the case relates to bank records. Democratic Strategist, Julian Epstein agrees, noting the “likely countries” that have had extensive business with Trump and his company are China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and possibly Turkey.

From the New Yorker, 10/15/18:
"Alfa Bank’s computers were looking up the address of the Trump server nearly every day. There were dozens of lookups on some days and far fewer on others, but the total number was notable: between May and September, Alfa Bank looked up the Trump Organization’s domain more than two thousand times".

I remember this episode very well.
