Trumps lies have caught up.

No one wants anything to do with trump,,except the Racist and Bigots.

Top Law Firms Turn trump Down

1. https://www.yahoo.com/news/four-top-law ... 23972.html
2.
3. Top lawyers with at least four major law firms rebuffed White House overtures to represent President Trump in the Russia investigations, in part over concerns that the president would be unwilling to listen to their advice, according to five sources familiar with discussions about the matter.
4.
5.
6.
7. Before Kasowitz was retained, however, some of the biggest law firms and their best-known attorneys turned down overtures when they were sounded out by White House officials to see if they would be willing to represent the president, the sources said.
8.
9. Among them, sources said, were some of the most high-profile names in the legal profession, including Brendan Sullivan of Williams & Connolly; Ted Olson of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher; Paul Clement and Mark Filip of Kirkland & Ellis; and Robert Giuffra of Sullivan & Cromwell.
10.
11. The lawyers and their firms cited a variety of factors in choosing not to take on the president as a client. Some, like Brendan Sullivan, said they had upcoming trials or existing commitments that would make it impossible for them to devote the necessary time and resources to Trump’s defense.
12.
13. Others mentioned potential conflicts with clients of their firms, such as financial institutions that have already received subpoenas relating to potential money-laundering issues that are part of the investigation.
14.
15. But a consistent theme, the sources said, was the concern about whether the president would accept the advice of his lawyers and refrain from public statements and tweets that have consistently undercut his position.
16.
17. “The concerns were, ‘The guy won’t pay and he won’t listen,’” said one lawyer close to the White House who is familiar with some of the discussions between the firms and the administration, as well as deliberations within the firms themselves.

Brendan Sullivan of Williams & Connolly; Ted Olson of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher; Paul Clement and Mark Filip of Kirkland & Ellis; and Robert Giuffra of Sullivan & Cromwell... wowza. Nobody really wants to try and defend this shitbag XD
18.
19. Other factors, the lawyer said, were that it would “kill recruitment” for the firms to be publicly associated with representing the polarizing president and jeopardize the firms’ relationships with other clients.
20.
21. Another lawyer briefed on some of the discussions agreed that the firms were worried about the reputational risk of representing the president. One issue that arose, this lawyer said, was “Do I want to be associated with this president and his policies?” In addition, the lawyer said, there were concerns that if they took on the case, “Who’s in charge?” and “Would he listen.

4. 1) He will not pay.

6. 2) He will not listen.

TRUMP FUNNELED CANCER CHARITY MONEY TO HIS BUSINESSES, ASSOCIATES: Reports.
BY RYAN BORT ON 6/6/17 AT 4:30 PM

Donald Trump Pulls U.S. Out Of Paris Climate Agreement

U.S.DONALD TRUMPERIC TRUMP
The Trump Foundation came under heavy scrutiny during Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. David Farenthold of The Washington Post even won the Pulitzer Prize solely for his reporting on Trump's charitable (mis)givings, which included using $20,000 of his foundation's money to purchase a portrait of himself.

After the election in November, the Trump Foundation admitted to violating a legal prohibition on "self-dealing," or using money meant for a nonprofit to benefit its leader.CRIMINAL

CLINTON FOUNDATION-HELPED SAVE MILLIONS OF LIVES,,DID TAX RETURNS EVERY YEAR,,NOTHING WRONG,THERE AND YOU GUYS CRAPED DOWN BOTH LEGS..


Related: Trump can cash in on working class supporters with budget hotel brand---USING UNDOCUMENTED WORKERS.THAT He WANT PAY.

Such shady practices apparently weren't limited to his own charity. According to a report released Tuesday by Forbes, once his son Eric's charity golf tournament started raising a substantial amount of money for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, which specializes in -<---->pediatric cancer, <<<<-------->>>>Trump began charging for the use of Trump Organization golf courses, and, ultimately, funneling the money the tournament raised into other charities that benefited Trump's business interests.<<---------->>>

Eric Trump, who first hosted the Eric Trump Foundation golf invitational in 2007, has always maintained that he is able to hold the event on Trump Organization courses free of charge, and that much of the food, drinks, entertainment and equipment is either comped or paid for by sponsors. According to tax filings obtained by Forbes, the event expenses averaged around $50,000 for each of its first four years.

Then, in 2011, the cost rose to $142,000. This was allegedly because Trump learned that the course was being used without charge, and became upset. "Mr. Trump had a cow," Ian Gillule, a former membership and marketing director at Trump National Westchester, told Forbes. "He flipped. He was like, 'We're donating all of this stuff, and there's no paper trail? No credit?' And he went nuts. He said, 'I don't care if it's my son or not—everybody gets billed.'"

------>>>Trump then essentially laundered money through the tournament by having his foundation donate to his son,<<------->> in order to cover the event fees that the Trump Organization was now being paid. From Forbes:

"In effect, though, this maneuver would appear to have more in common with a drug cartel's money-laundering operation than a charity's best-practices textbook. That $100,000 in outside donations to the Donald J. Trump Foundation (remember: Trump himself didn't give to his own foundation at this time) passed through the Eric Trump Foundation—and wound up in the coffers of Donald Trump's private businesses."

By 2015, the event's expenses had reached $322,000. Forbes spoke with golf tournament organizers and the former head golf pro at Trump National Westchester, and no one could fathom how a one-day charity event could cost so much money.

In what seems to be a measure to ensure the Eric Trump Foundation could make as much money for the Trump Organization as possible, Trump installed his own people on the foundation's board, which was initially made up of friends of Eric's who had no financial interest in the Trump Organization's success. The Trump associates added to the board included Trump attorney Michael Cohen and Trump social media director Dan Scavino Jr.

"They were wearing two hats," Patrick Lanagan, a former director of golf at Trump National Westchester, told Forbes. "You're dealing with people talking about the event and the charity who also at the same time are thinking about it as a corporation and as a business. It's a for-profit club. You know, they're trying to make money."

Soon after the new board took over, large sums of money meant for St. Jude's were rerouted to other charities run by associates of Trump. Forbes spoke with Eric Trump for the piece, but he eventually decided to "disengage" because he felt it was not going to be a "fair" portrayal. The Trump Organization "declined to answer detailed questions."

The Eric Trump Foundation, in effect, became just another way for>>>>> Donald Trump to make money. ----------->>>>>><<<<Whether the money was originally intended for kids suffering from cancer was irrelevant, <<----->>apparently, to the man who is now the president of the United States.

The idiot that started this post with a copy and paste from Michael Isikoff, a well known leftist who has had his very own share of scandals. This is how dumb Rufus is. He quotes people with no credibility and reposts the nonsense with the idea that it is fact. Nothing is further from the truth. Here's a little about Michael:

"Isikoff graduated from Syosset High School on Long Island in 1970. He received his A.B. from Washington University in 1974, with a junior-year-abroad at the University of Durham, England, and obtained a masters from the Medill School of Journalism from Northwestern University in 1976.

Isikoff is the co-author, with The Nation reporter David Corn, of Hubris: The Inside Story of Spin, Scandal and the Selling of the Iraq War, a 2006 book about the selling of the 2003 Invasion of Iraq to the U.S. public and the ensuing Plame scandal. The book was a New York Times best-seller.[6][7]

His online column with fellow journalist Mark Hosenball, "Terror Watch," won the 2005 award from the Society of Professional Journalists for best investigative reporting online. Isikoff was a part of the Newsweek team that won the Overseas Press Club’s most prestigious award, the 2001 Ed Cunningham Memorial Award for best magazine reporting from abroad for Newsweek's coverage of the war on terror.

In the May 9, 2005, issue of Newsweek, Isikoff co-wrote an article that stated that interrogators at Guantanamo Bay "in an attempt to rattle suspects, flushed a Quran down a toilet." Detainees had earlier made similar complaints but this was the first time a government source had appeared to confirm the story. The article caused widespread rioting and massive anti-American protests throughout some parts of the Islamic world (causing at least 17 deaths in Afghanistan). The magazine later retracted the story after noting that the anonymous official who was their source subsequently could not remember important details.[8] A subsequent June 4, 2005, report by the Pentagon, however, confirmed multiple instances of desecration of the Quran at Guantanamo, including one incident in which urine was splashed on a Quran.[9] Isikoff has been a contributing blogger at The Huffington Post.

He has appeared on the Democracy Now! show."

Here's a little bit on Michael's wife Mary Ann:
"Mary Ann Akers is an American reporter and political gossip columnist. She currently writes for Politico and has contributed to NPR, the Huffington Post and other outlets.

She wrote The Sleuth for washingtonpost.com and contributed to the print edition of the Washington Post."

Here's a little piece about the Democracy Now show that Michael liked to appear on:
"Democracy Now! is an hour-long American TV, radio and internet news program hosted by journalists Amy Goodman and Juan González. The show, which airs live each weekday at 08:00 ET, is broadcast on the internet and by over 1,400 radio and television stations worldwide.

The program combines news reporting, interviews, investigative journalism and political commentary with an eye toward documenting social movements, struggles for justice and the effects of American foreign policy. While described as progressive by fans as well as critics, the show's executive producer rejects that label, calling the program a global newscast that has "people speaking for themselves".

Democracy Now Productions, the independent nonprofit organization which produces Democracy Now!, is funded entirely through contributions from listeners, viewers, and foundations and does not accept advertisers, corporate underwriting or government funding."

Leftist BS from a leftist full of BS.

Huh Oh!
Comey did in fact assure Trump he was not under investigationPosted on 6/7/17 at 12:53 pm

Come on down Pine Mountain
quote:
In that context, prior to the January 6 meeting, I discussed with the FBI’s leadership team whether I should be prepared to assure President-Elect Trump that we were not investigating him personally. That was true; we did not have an open counter-intelligence case on him. We agreed I should do so if circumstances warranted. During our one-on-one meeting at Trump Tower, based on PresidentElect Trump’s reaction to the briefing and without him directly asking the question, I offered that assurance.

James Comey testimony: Trump asked me to let Flynn investigation go

CNN)Fired FBI Director James Comey aimed a dagger blow at Donald Trump Wednesday, saying the President had demanded his loyalty, pressed him to drop a probe into ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn and repeatedly pressured him to publicly declare that he was not under investigation.

The Russia investigation: Everything you need to know
Comey magnified the political crisis engulfing the White House by releasing his opening statement ahead of a blockbuster appearance on Capitol Hill on Thursday. The dramatic document sketched a stunningly detailed account of Comey's intimate meetings with the President, included direct quotes from Trump and revealed the former FBI chief's discomfort with the President's behavior.

Comey to testify that Trump sought 'loyalty,' asked to lift Russia 'cloud'

Trump wishes Comey luck ahead of Senate hearing

James Comey plans to testify Thursday that in the months before he was fired as FBI director, President Trump sought his “loyalty” while also pressing him to “lift the cloud” of the Russia investigation and lay off Michael Flynn, according to written testimony released ahead of his Senate committee appearance.

The prepared remarks for his opening statement, released by the Senate Intelligence Committee, also make clear that Comey repeatedly assured Trump he was not personally under investigation.
