Weisselberg Indicted

[martybegan]

A two-year investigation, and all they can charge the dude with is some picayune fringe benefit chickenshit.

OOOOOO!.....SHINY OBJECT!!!!

The communists are acting like it's the crime of the century. Just like Al Capone. How senseless those communists are.

It's exactly like Al Capone.

Not even close. Capone was not reporting millions in income, income from an illegal source.

The thing with white collar crime cases is that juries find them incredibly complex to figure out.

Charges were brought for both Weiselberg and the trump organization. That throws the books open for investigation. If trump was valuing his properties low for tax purposes, but high for loan approval, that would amount to millions from an illegal source.

The books were already open. If this wasn't related to Trump it would just be an audit and a civil proceeding.

This is all they got out of years of investigation.

Capone was not reporting millions in income

Um...marty...that is literally exactly what Weisselberg is charged with.

Nope, the trumped up charges (lol) are for misreporting one form of compensation, again something that would be handled civilly if it wasn't for the Manhattan DA's Trump vendetta.

2 years plus and this is all they got.

NY needs to spend more time prosecuting poor people who shoplift $20 worth of products and less time prosecuting rich people who avoid paying hundreds of thousands worth of taxes.

Because that makes sense.

Some idiots think that prosecution of crime is needs an ROI. That’s idiotic.

Current shoplifting crews don't steal $20, they steal hundreds or thousands of dollars of merchandise. And to the store owner that is a loss.

The guy boosting stuff from stores isn't just doing that.

This would have been an audit issue or at most a civil case if it didn't involve Trump.

Allen Weisselberg Surrenders To Manhattan DA This Morning

The charges against him are related to unpaid taxes.

This guy knows where all the bodies are buried.

Trump has to be shitting his pants

Riight, just like how you guys “flipped” Flynn and Stone, and got Cohen to “sing like a canary”. Yet here we are years later and nothing on Trump.

Fining rich people isn’t a deterrent. These assholes are defrauding the government and should be prosecuted. Everyone of us pays more in taxes when these guys don’t.

First of all, why not both?
In fact, no one said that. You just make up stuff to say this is a win for the DEMS. In fact, a total of 1.7M max since 2005, that is a total loss for them. It is like promising a 5 ct diamond ring but receiving a ring pop.

are you saying he is the only one? Give me a break, hunter did not fill his diamond too. The fact is that we all do it. Maybe a few hundred for normal folk but a few million for them. Actually, he is not that bad, less than a million per year.

But people burning down businesses in Portland shouldn't be prosecuted?

The books were already open.

1) no they weren't. Stop making up nonsense.

2) The charges are that they kept two sets of books

So it’s okay to defraud the government for a few million because they’re rich?

2) The charges are that they kept two sets of books

Then why wasn't he prosecuted for that?

why wasn't he prosecuted for that?

He is. It is in the indictment.

Why are you even commenting? You clearly know less than nothing about any of this.

Did they prosecute Al Sharpton for the millions he didn’t pay? Were you outraged?

Oh Marty, you don’t know what you’re talking about. Read the indictment. There’s a lot more than “misrepresenting one form of compensation”.

It would appear to me that the right wing media you slavishly adhere to isn’t telling you the whole story.
