TOPLINE The Campaign Legal Center, a nonpartisan campaign finance watchdog group, filed a complaint with the Federal Elections Commission Tuesday accusing the Trump campaign of “laundering” $170 million through numerous companies, some with connections to former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale.

And then today(on edit: he probably knew of this story which dropped Tuesday) he hears the NYTimes has tax records and he threatens suicide before being Baker Acted to prevent self harm.


All the best people...

1. Parscale knows he is going to prison

His best play is to flip and sell Trump
Out as fast as possible

[Zoonart]

He's in a hospital on psychiatric hold tonight.

[SoonerPride]

22. Could he be worried about being placed in a jail cell controlled by Barr, with cellmate removed, no

Could he be worried about being placed in a jail cell controlled by Barr, with cellmate removed, no working cameras, and unreliable guards?

[BigmanPigman]

3. Brad did it in the AM but the NYT article

didn't come out until later in the day. I wonder if he was tipped off or was it just the result of the Tues FEC complaint?

[NightWatcher]

8. you're right, maybe he'd heard from the FEC thing.

Will update

[SheltieLover]

18. They always know ahead of press releases

Maybe NYT called ahead & asked for comment.

[OnDoutside]

12. Parscale just realized he's the fall guy

The actual scandal may more about some hundreds of millions the Trump kids have been stashing offshore.

[IggleDuer]

[thenelm1]

21. And how much of that 170 mil went to levels deep hidden LLCs with dump as the end recipient? nt

[uponit7771]

36. +1, Melania's best friend was the fall person for the inauguration funds

[Maraya1969]

13. And this:

"The allegation comes amid reports that the Trump campaign also moved millions in campaign funds to Trump’s private business interests. Forbes’ Dan Alexander and Michela Tindera reported earlier this month that the Trump campaign has pushed nearly $7 million towards Trump’s businesses since the president entered office."

[Mme. Defarge]

24. I had a feeling that Parscale's suicide threat would end up having something to do with

stealing.

[lutherj]

26. The Forbes article is dated two months ago. The "Tuesday" referenced was in late July. EOM

[RestoreAmerica2020]

29. So..whose going to tell pendejo, se acabo, it's over--RESIGN!

Aug. 7, 1974.1974 .republican leaders, Goldwater and Rhodes and Scott went over to WH, told Nixon he was doomed; had lost support of congress--next day he resigned. [The Republic/wikipedia] Wow--republican leaders doing the right thing--amazing!

Really don't expect current republicans to do what's right for country--.perhaps Barr but only to save his hide; ensure a pardon from Pence

God talk about an October surprise, this scandal, his taxes just leaked and every fucking corrupt, criminal, perverted thing he's done in his life and while in office [imo this is just tip of iceberg] --it's time for him to resign!

One can wish? So sick and tired if the daily maldad, evil bad things this jerk does.

[SunSeeker]

31. Come on, he was just a coffee boy.

[Ellipsis]

32. This is going to be an interesting week.

"Believe me."

[malaise]

35. Plenty more to come

The unraveling cometh!
