Mueller Subpoenas Trump Organization, Demanding Documents About Russia
The special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, has subpoenaed the Trump Organization to turn over documents, including some related to Russia, according to two people briefed on the matter. The order is the first known time that the special counsel demanded documents directly related to President Trump’s businesses, bringing the investigation closer to the president.
Yes, this should get very interesting. It was reported- that Trump was working with a "sanctioned" Russian bank for financing on the Trump tower in downtown Moscow he was planning, while he was running for POTUS. Democrats on the house intelligence committee state they have documents and testimony regarding this. This was right at the same time that Chairman of the House intelligence committee, Devin Nunes shut down the House Investigation--"claiming" there was no evidence of collusion. I think they've got something here, and the evidence was just too much for Republican Devin Nunes to take on, so he and Republicans on the committee just decided to shut it down.
Trump’s business sought deal on a Trump Tower in Moscow while he ran for presidentWhile Donald Trump was running for president in late 2015 and early 2016, his company was pursuing a plan to develop a massive Trump Tower in Moscow, according to several people familiar with the proposal and new records reviewed by Trump Organization lawyers.
It's definitely getting closer to Trump, and my guess it's going to be money laundering--which is why Mueller wants his business records. It's also the reason Trump has refused to release his income tax returns.
Here is a good explanation of this:
This really makes sense because Trump bankrupted 4 casino's and left American banks holding the bag on 900 million dollars. No American bank would loan him a $1.00 bill after that. The only way he could get financing is through foreign banks--with a few Russian oligarchs worth a few billion--via off shore shell corporations.
This is what Mueller is going after, & they found the same with Paul Manafort.

Steve Bannon is quoted in Michael Wolff's book--it's all about the money laundering.

/——/ Trump sold out of the casinos when AC went down the tubes. He has 500 successful businesses, so 4 out of 500 ain’t bad
The point is when you burn American banks--they're not going to loan you any more money--so he has had to go to foreign banks with foreign co-signers to get his money. I am certain he is using off shore shell corporations to do it. Democrats on the House intelligence committee are stating they have documents to prove he was working with a "sanctioned" Russian bank. "Sanctioned" meaning, as an American citizen he was ineligible (illegal) for working with this bank.
The entire point of candidates releasing income tax returns is to show which candidate has foreign CONFLICTS of interest. You don't want a POTUS that can be manipulated or threatened by foreigners. Basically held hostage on bills and decisions.
The Senate & the House steam-rolled Trump on Russian sanctions many months ago. They gave him a bill that he could not veto. Trump has missed deadline after deadline to install any of those sanctions. There is a reason for that.
