His removal comes as Scottish lawmakers and Avaaz, a global do-gooder organization, are pushing for an "unexplained wealth" inquiry into how Trump got the money to buy and refurbish both of his money-losing Scottish golf courses.

A 2018 British law lets investigators examine company and personal financial records to determine sources of money and riches that they deem suspicious. It's been called the McMafia law.

.....................
The course also has an interest-free loan ....................
There are only two ways Weisselberg could be removed as a director of the Trump International Golf Club Scotland, Ltd. Weisselberg could have done so on his own. In that case, his lawyers may have advised him to do so for reasons not yet clear..............................

At least when democrats and a few other adults who were not determined to "prove" that government was the problem rather than the solution were in charge.

Not that we didn't from time-to-time really screw up, but good intentions were still clearly in play.

If I am correct, you are already "signed up."

No, if there is a Loch Monster he would run away from it, animals can perceive crap when they see it.

McTrump was running a washateria for laundering McPutin's money. But like the blood on Lady Macabeth's hands, McTrump and McPutin just can't wash the stink of crime off their hands.

Out, damned spot!

Is Weisselberg the new Sater? Trump on Sater: “If he were sitting in the room right now I really wouldn't know what he looked like”


The removal process for US companies will be a bit more complicated -Allen Weisselberg is listed as an officer 181 times - he is sometimes listed in different officer roles for the same company and may be listed on branches of related companies,,
(1 with jurisdiction in the UK 3 in Panama and the rest in the US)
