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?


Well, one was under the table or passed through a few hands and the other one was actually normal business if true.

Is this the same Raskin that’s going after Trump for lack of transparency?🤔🙄


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.

www.washingtonexaminer.com...

Anything that’s had Raskin’s name attached to it has been a farce and a witch hunt, the guy is a clown. He’s on a bunch of committees including the judiciary and the oversight committees. Having watched many of these hearings I can say without a doubt that he’s always trying to deny evidence into the record. What’s he hiding?

I think we all know that Raskin like all the rest of them has voted on legislation that he’s profited on. I want to see his stock portfolio along with his voting history on legislation that could’ve benefited his investments. Fairly safe to say he’s done some shady dealings while in congress. Democrats hypocrisy has no bounds.

For those that want to argue that point


Does anyone have an example of what we are talking about here? All I see is the typical liberal Clickbait headline.

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.


I think it went hard left too... I would say 50/50...

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.....


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?

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.



What favors would those be? Since we're talking foreign money, what foreign policies were given special treatment? Which outside countries profittted? Where'd America lose?

If Trump took money from foreign countries, like Biden did/does, what countries benefitted? Let's look into that!!

Name the countries that benefitted with Trump in office. Name one, besides the United States of America.

You make allegations, let's see where your thoughts are. What do YOU think that money paid for? If you don't know, ot even want to guess, then you need to STFIU!

Kushner got a good amount of the sovereign wealth fund from Saudi Arabia to play around with.

While I’m not going to act like this is the largest violation in politics, I also won’t pretend it’s nothing.

Saudi Arabia was the only sovereign nation with the most ties to 9/11. So much so we had to leave that part out of the report long enough for the goldfish.

That said, every president has given hand jibbers to the Sauds, so it’s not like it was a wild course off the reservation.

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

Along with the Mueller investigations, impeachments etc etc.


Hell of a way to spend the taxpayer money while also trying to appear relevant to the public.

That's because they are Republicans...

I can give Hunter Bidens laptop to an autistic teenage on 4chan and have a open and closed case in 6 hours. It's obvious to many of us the neo-cons in the house won't impeach the neo-con installed in the Whitehouse because they all work for the same masters. It's just stooges like you that think there is a difference between Democrats and Republicans.

They all support the same disastrous policies and squabble over nonsense...

I think the FISA judge was lied to and found out later...nothing came out of it, but if this was Nixon instead of Obama we know what would have happened.

Well the person, Kevin Clinesmith, was penalized.

400 hours community service and loss of his license, for a year. He's already back to practicing law.....


Not bad for fabricating evidence to violate a sitting POTUS' civil rights.....

Trump divested of his businesses during his term as President.

But you knew that.

This was addressed 7 years ago.



It's cute you think that.
Would you do the same? Honest question.

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.

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.


Orange man was a Billionaire before becoming President .....

I'm not sure how you can't connect the dots ' Threadbarer ' .... You think a few million dollars here and a Few million there even blip on his radar for some international business deals ? That is if they were even made while he was President . What is $7.8million to a guy worth $999,000,000 + ?

I get you wanna paint Trump with this Brush , but it just does not compute. Think critically , Think think think .

Trumps Presidency has cost him millions and millions of dollars just trying to defend himself from the left’s manufactured lunacy and lies. Not to mention he funded much of his own campaign. He’s lost a lot of money and ready to go again.

Does anyone know how much the big guy has spent on his defense council and campaign? I’m betting zero dollars, just a couple of ph calls.

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…



Well it has been my experience here on ATS that Most " Trolls " have Very Short Lifespans on this Site due to Death by Multiple Cutting Truths then Run Away to their Mommies to tend to their Self Inflicted Boo Boo's........

Actually there’s quite a few people here that often post links from extremely biased sources; CNN, MSNBC, BBC and other misc. left leaning propaganda sources. It really helps their credibility. 😏
