1. Hope so!

I can hardly wait for Maxine Waters to expose the grifter-in-chief

[Iliyah]

2. Yes.

[erronis]

3. Wasn't it also Deutsche Bank that ex-Justice Kennedy's son worked for

and there is some question if Kennedy "retired" in order to get Gorsuch nominated to the SCOTUS?

Wonder if this line of questioning will lead down these dark and winding alleys.

Good story at: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/anthony-kennedy-resignation-trump/

[empedocles]

6. You are on to a very interesting line of questioning.

The sub headline of your good story could have been, 'Did Justice Kennedy cut a trump engineered deal [fits trump perfectly], to resign from the Court to protect his son'?

[erronis]

8. I am not the first to question this peculiar turn of events or timing.

I don't know enough about these things but I always "cherchez la monnaie".

9. You are bringing up an important issue up here at DU.

The timing for this is better than in the past s Deutsch is providing information to Congress, - and investigations are cross-fertilizing at an icreasing rate.

Just the publicity puts more pressure on the Robert's Robber Baron Court.

10. That whole thing stunk.

Amazing that the press didn't jump on that.

[Pepsidog]

11. Incestous bastards. Gorsuch and Kavenaugh need to be impeached when Dems win in 2020.

[OMGWTF]

14. The last two years need to be cancelled.

[FailureToCommunicate]

16. Your user name is PERFECT for these days, these nightmares we're living through!

[bdamomma]

27. null and void

and make him worthless. Every thug/dictator has been brought to his knees, he is no different.

[bdamomma]

28. Welcome to

DU too.

4. I wonder if they can tie tRump to any of Deutsche Bank money laundering schemes

or it may be just gathering more false assets claims he used to try to acquire loans.

[empedocles]

7. 'just . . . more false asset claims' would be just more felonies, and could lead to more.

[Xolodno]

5. As long as their "client" wasn't in political office...

...they could take the assets if he didn't pay. And given Dump's lack of choices of lenders, they had him by the balls. Now as President, he could actually "maneuver" the laws to his favor...I'm betting they didn't like that, hence, their cooperation.

[Ligyron]

12. Trump has cheated, robbed, slandered and just plain pissed off so many people

There's absolutely no way he doesn't come to a bad end.

[Capt. America]

13. Can we get to the money laundering please?

[dchill]

15. A VERY big deal.

"The likes of which have never been seen before."

[Honeycombe8]

17. Wow. This is a wow.

Was it subpoenaed? Or is it voluntarily cooperating?

The last person I'd want to see coming at me is MAXINE!!!!!

[onenote]

18. It could be a big deal. But no-one, including Rachel, knows whether or not it is

How many times have we heard pronouncements that this, that, or the other reported development is a big deal, a game changer, the beginning of the end, etc....

The cold, hard reality is that we don't know -- and more often than not the ones making the pronouncements don't know-- how legally significant the latest revelation, or reported/rumored revelation, actually is.

Its understandable, but unfortunate, that folks have been buying into the rumor factory surrounding investigations of Trump. Anyone still believe the breathless reports that Louise and Claude were making nearly two years ago?

Patience is a virtue.

[radical noodle]

20. It is a big deal that they are cooperating

in that way.

[Nitram]

19. YES!

[shanny]

21. heh

[The Wielding Truth]

22. Wow. We are going to see some damning stuff here.

There are many cheats and fraudsters hooked up to this bank.

[spanone]

23. Rep. Waters knows a racist grifter when she sees one.

[red dog 1]

24. K&R, thanks for posting

[lindysalsagal]

25. Rachel knows more, but can only say it's a "big deal."

And maghotface knows what it is.

[bdamomma]

26. Follow the money

Rep Maxine Waters what a gem she is, never ever give up.

[Blue Owl]

29. Investigate to the Max!!!

Go Maxine!!!
