  • Another of Trumps swamp creatures is subpoenaed.

    And the beat goes on. Add Carl Icahn to the list of Trunps corrupt appointed advisers. It's believed Icahn made nearly 200 million as a direct result of policy changes made to his companies benefit while advising his swamp king and chief.

    exactly in what way did this guy do anything wrong in regards to Trump or his campaign? Were there Russians involved? Did he steal campaign funds? Sell biofuel to the Russians? What?

    How does this show that Trump is corrupt in any way?

      I just love the fair and balanced manner in which Jimmy objectively reports the snooze! The boy is just filled with hate. Sad.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

        Er,

        Source: Jim's article

        After Bloomberg broke the news that Icahn had struck a deal for changes with a leading biofuel industry trade group in February, RIN prices plummeted. That agreement never resulted in a policy shift, and EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt specifically ruled out the change in a letter to a handful of farm-state senators last month.

                    Sorry, I'll be more explicit: what you claimed the article said and what it actually said is not the same.

                    I'm not sure there's any actual conflict here, given that he wasn't being paid in his advisory position. That said, if there's dirt, I hope it comes to light and he gets prosecuted for it.

                      Of course he wasn't being paid, neither was Manafort being paid. Thats how the scam works don't you know. Manafort was getting paid alright, just not by the U.S. government, and so was Icahn as it turns out, but if things go sour, if someone catches on, Trump can always become Sgt. Schultz and say "I know nothing" they weren't even paid advisers, I had nothing to do with them.

                        People would take you a lot more seriously if you didn't just keep coming up with these wild accusations without any evidence. You sound like a conspiracy nut.

                          You mean, Trump should take a page out of the Hillary "I don't recall" playbook?

                              Hillary has nothing on Trump when it comeas to immoral character. She screwed up on the e-mail thing, the rest is all bs demonization of a 40 year public servant. But thats what the right wing does, thats their modus operandi, the propagandists know that republicans can't win on the issues, so they try to do it by demonizing their oponents. But thats okay, because they've riled up the women and when they become more active politically , such as was evident in Tuesdays elections, republicans are in for some tough times.
