How do you spell "money laundering"?

David Fahrenthold Retweeted:

Newly-released court papers in the Manafort case show that he got a $10 million loan from Russian oligarch Deripaska to one of his shell companies: "John Hannah LLC" That company is the shell company through which he bought his Trump Tower apartment, #43-G for all cash



Thank you @ZoeTillman for posting the links - For Manafort's home in Virginia: http://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4566 … - For Manafort's storage unit: http://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/4566https://twitter.com/kpolantz/statu



That's laundered money going into Trump's pocket, correct?



Sounds like it.



What his supporters and others think is a talented businessman who amassed a fortune is nothing more than a terrible businessman who bankrupt every business he had until he started biz relations with the Russians and his fortune started growing.



Isn't that pretty compelling evidence of #TrumpRussia money-laundering? Money from Russia, to Manafort, to Trump, set up as an all cash real estate deal?



so Manafort bought a Trump tower apartment with money from a (now sanctioned) Russian oligarch that the US Govt called indistinguishable from the Russian govt?
