NY AG Schneiderman may be sitting on the biggest Trump bombshells of them all.

This is one investigation DT cannot stop -- because in addition to the Federal prosecutor, an investigation is being run by the NY State Attorney General. The allegations include both money laundering -- through casinos and real estate -- and Russia.

It all seems improbable and highly unlikely, but the truth about Donald Trump is staring anyone in the face when all of the facts are put together.

Donald Trump was a knowing asset of the federal government, working with a high-profile confidential informant for the better part of a decade, until all of the scams and dodges they were allowed to run got exposed for ripping off hundreds of investors and thousands of Americans when you include victims Trump University who recently settled.

After his money laundering scheme — getting paid by his untouchables, but turning over “bad guys” to the FBI — broke down, Trump’s foray into real estate development laid bare the rusty skills of a trust-fund baby who hadn’t had to earn a living the old fashioned way for years.

The results are scattered across America’s court system in the form of over 3,500 lawsuits against Trump through the years, dozens of which are ongoing today.

Now, President Trump has fired the FBI Director James Comey, and he isn’t afraid to tell the entire world it’s because his Russia investigation was getting uncomfortably close to hitting paydirt.

How else could a known multi-millionaire investor spend a third of his adult life participating in known rackets — including ten years with a known CIA and FBI confidential informant — and escape all forms of federal criminal action while running a casino with zero anti-money laundering controls for that long?

The assistant U.S. Attorney who led public-corruption prosecutions under now-fired Preet Bharara is taking on a new gig probing the Trump administration, reports The Wall Street Journal. Howard Master, who helped lead the CityTime payroll and Sheldon Silver cases, will now work for New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman as senior enforcement counsel, focusing on issues relating to the Trump White House and public corruption in general.

Back in the early '70's there were no computers or internet. Everything was on paper and it took forever to peruse those and find what was needed for prosecution.

Now investigations are across agencies and jurisdictions, "paper trails" are found electronically and what is needed for prosecution is easier to find.

8. Does it amaze anyone else that DT is still alive, considering all these mobsters he must have

turned on and screwed over throughout the years? Surely at least a handful of them must have it out for him. Not to mention all the decent people he has destroyed. This guy has left so much wreckage in his wake, I can't imagine that there is not a price on his head. I don't know, maybe I watch to many mafia movies.

for unraveling the hot mess and getting a conviction on money laundering and any other crime that trump perpetrated.

Does that sound like something blotus would do? Yep.
