Page 31 - State Actor News Today

I think its absolutely ridiculous. one point i wanted to make in reference to whether this is public or not. we are not dealing with an intern here in the 90s with a starr report. dealing with sensitive information about a state actor of russia. there is deftly going to be things redacted here.i absolutely am confident the democrats will use this as an opportunity to say the doj is not sharing everything. in the end i think we will know everything we need to know in the mueller report. chris: wa...

Tower, associated with the russian mafia. its important to say they are a state actor. its very unlike the italian-american mafia in this country. they report to putin. you can see manafort over the years, he laundered money through a company that was tied to a russian mobster who is a financial genius behind the russian mafia. there are nasty characters here. i think its extraordinarily disturbing that the russian mafia, on and off for 35 years is using trump tower as a base of operations to ru...

Points out, this was the actions of a hostile state actor. both are true. the president was supporting the actions of a hostile state actor. thats why this investigation is under way now. >> is it signals that things will be okay? the president was telling wikileaks if you got those e-mails, show them out. i love you. its not as if the president is doing this privately. hes doing it publicly. >> russian military intelligence hacks the democrats e-mail. they give it to wikileaks. wikileaks works ...

Should be looking. and i have found cases of money laundering going back to 1984 with members of the russia mafia meeting with donald trump, buying five condos at a time, and the state attorney general of new york saying that is a case of money laundering. and that continues through decades again and again. its important to know also that the russian mafia is a state actor. i interviewed the head of counterintelligence of the k.g.b. about this. they report to the k.g.b. they sayhare information ...

The hurricane is the big story, but we have to talk about that. if this man is dead, the state actor, directed by that state, do we really do nothing? as michael was just rampaging all over the panhandle, where was the president in that time of crisis? stomping at a rally in pennsylvania. what is wrong with that, and how it may actually lead him to what is the right thing to do, is the closing argument next. im captain obvious and hotels.com

Well have to see what the next steps that are taken. aaron david miller, im going to come back to you on this. again, i hope what were hearing about your friend is not true, but we have to prepare for the worth and report it that way. thank you, sir. >> likewise, chris. thank you. look, the hurricane is the big story, but weve got to talk about that. how often does this happen? if this man is actually dead by somebody elses hand, a state actor directed by that state, do we really do nothing? s...

>> anthony: lets start with this: genocide. many people seem awfully and curiously reluctant to use this word. as american national -- foreign policy, we use what, catastrophe? a regrettable series of incidents? >> richard: yeah, how insulting. >> anthony: yes. but i mean, it seems to me, just as a casual observer, anytime a state actor or organization makes a concerted and organized effort to eradicate any ethnic or national group, thats genocide, right? >> richard: yes. whats important though,...

Diplomats and intelligence officers. and it was target iing them. >> absolutely. there are a number of factors that you are looking at, andrea, and any investigative or intelligence officer would look at. so you have the number of attacks that happened in 2016 and began to reoccur in 2018 and so it is not random. it is also not part of some rogue operation that we have indications that it may have happened in china as well. you have a number of officials targeted and the facilities target and th...

Five condos for $6 million. thats the eye equivalent of $15 million today. and this was the first episode of laundering money for the russian mafia. it continued for many, many years. and over time about 1300 units of trump property were sold under conditions that set off alarm bells in any money laundering circles, that is they were sold to anonymous shell companies in all cash transactions. and the number of russian mobsters of who been in and around trump tower over the years is incredibly di...
