While the House Oversight Committee struggles to find financial ties between Biden and his son's business dealings, a new report reveals that Trump's businesses took in nearly $8 million from foreign governments while Trump was President.
The report goes on to state that Trump's actions violated the foreign emoluments clause.
So, when is Comer going to subpoena the Trumps to give depositions?
Sarah Bloom Raskin, President Joe Biden’s latest Federal Reserve nominee, is a revolving-door lobbyist who used her access to get special treatment from the Fed for a company on whose board she sat. She thus made more than a million dollars for herself. Her husband, a Democratic congressman, failed to report her holding or sale of the stock as required by law.
Biden and Banking Committee Democrats are making excuses for Raskin and her husband, Maryland U.S. Rep. Jamie Raskin. But the story is a triple whammy of swampy cronyism: the revolving door, insider self-enrichment, and failure of transparency.
Her husband, the congressman, was legally required to disclose his wife’s valuable holdings in Reserve Trust. He never did. So while she was lobbying the Fed, and while the Fed was making decisions to benefit Reserve Trust, Jamie was covering up that Sarah, a former Fed official, held large amounts of stock in Reserve Trust. Rep. Raskin has cited their son’s suicide to explain why the 2020 sale of the stock was reported late. But no one has explained why he never reported holding the stock during the years they owned it. It’s typical swamp behavior, and Joe Biden wants to reward it by giving Raskin yet another job at the Fed.

Well, obviously you are new. ATS was not a super political site for years and years. It slightly was during the end of the Bush years, but really went right during Obama years.
If you want an echo chamber, feel free to just hang out on Truth Social.
Many of us here have been here a very long time and will continue to post, whether you like it or not.

136 page investigation. Fully paid for by the taxpayers.
For a guy who isnt in office, is the political opponent of the investigators.
While the guy in office is getting a pass from all of govt and media.....

This was reported during his Presidency. Foreign countries spending money at his hotels. So it's not a surprise. All these politicians are doing something shady. Taking money for favors is just the tip of the iceberg.

While a known to be faked dossier triggered FISA actions and two years of an FBI investigation to the cost of 40 million. Does anyone remember Watergate and why Nixon was removed?

Worse yet was the manipulated evidence provided to the rubber stamps of FISA courts.

Trump divested of his businesses during his term as President.
But you knew that.
This was addressed 7 years ago.

Former President Donald Trump's businesses received millions of dollars from foreign entities located in 20 different countries during his presidency, according to a new report released Thursday by Democrats on the House Oversight committee. The top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin, released the report and provided documents from Trump's former accounting firm that show that 20 governments, including China and Saudi Arabia, paid at least $7.8 million during Trump's presidency to business entities that included Trump International Hotels in Washington, D.C., and Las Vegas, and Trump Towers in New York.

I wonder how much money he possibly lost because how many people refused to stay at his hotels etc. because he was painted Bad Man Orange by 99.9% of media influencers.

Once again:
Here’s the question that comes to mind when reading this post:
This online bulletin board is called Above Top Secret.
I ask to the public, why would ANYBODY of obvious Left Wing mindset, NOT ONLY POST, but have a profile in this OBVIOUSLY alternative media???
Why bother?
By comparison, how many of us wish to hang out and Troll CNN as well MSNBC websites??? Nope, none of us are doing this.
So why is it so many posts are trolled here on this website???
Think on it…
