What is driving the Anti-Trump movement?
The corrupt within US politics, the DOJ/Intel, and British Intel, it is believed, are only a part of a much larger criminal conspiracy. This operation can be traced back to the fall of the Soviet Union, if not before. It leads back to the creation of offshore banks and secrecy jurisdictions in London after WWII. The US banking establishment later became involved, when they moved their international operations to Canary Wharf in London.
What one must ask themselves, is what was their motive for keeping President Trump out of the White House? It leads back to the collapse of the Soviet Union, the creation of the Russian Federation, the Russian mafia, and what is known as “The Russian Laundromat,” as well as billions in missing currency. It is also tied into international organized crime, nuclear proliferation/diversion, illicit drugs, and the Sinaloa drug cartel, which became the major drug cartel in Mexico. President Trump has targeted this very money laundering operation, the nuclear proliferation, the Russian mafia, as well as the drug cartels, and the mainstream media in the US is staying silent. President Trump intended on targeting this criminal network before the election, and it is tied to the charities, foundations, trusts, and institutes formed by others. When pondering this, one would do well to investigate Abscam.

Quoting an article from Real Russia about Vyacheslav Kirillovich Ivankov:
During interviews in prison, Ivankov accused the FBI of inventing the “myth” of the Russian mafia in order to prove the usefulness of their Russian division. He stated that Russia “is one uninterrupted criminal swamp,” the main criminals being the Kremlin and the FSB and that anybody who thinks he is the leader of the so-called Russian mafia is foolish.

Quoting from the NCJRS ebook, above, when referencing the “Russian mafia”:
“Russian” actually refers to a variety of Eurasian crime groups. These [also]
include Armenians, Ukrainians, Lithuanians, and persons from the Caucasus region of the former Soviet Union (e.g., Chechens, Dagestanis, Georgians).
NCJRS: Organized Crime in Ukraine: Challenge and Response
Ask yourself some simple questions. Who is really at the head of the Russian mafia? Government plus industry plus white collar crime plus blue collar crime? Was the mafia within the old Soviet government, especially within the KGB? Who are/were the oligarchs? Why did some of the oligarchs and ex-Soviet leadership flee to London and New York City? Did they have a disagreement with the new Kingpin? When did the Russian mafia start to settle in New York City, specifically at Brooklyn? Did they spread out into the US, and if so, in what cities? Ask yourself these same questions about Britain.
What other organized crime syndicates are involved within the US? Which mob once ruled over Cuba, pre-Castro, and moved their operations to Nevada? All US mobs compete and work together under the “Syndicate,” including working with the Latino cartels, but there is one in particular that is ethnically tied to the Russians.
Quoting CBS News:
Under pressure from the Nixon administration, Moscow agreed to allow more Soviet Jews to emigrate. But in a move copied years later by Fidel Castro, the Soviets opened prison doors in the gulag and thousands of hard-core criminals left for the United States.
Since then, the Russian Mafia has been linked to penny stock manipulation, gas excise tax scams, health care fraud and cybercrime—criminal enterprises where they are pioneers, not just perpetrators.
But law enforcement officials say the Russians are particularly good at money laundering, the lifeblood of organized crime. In fact, other crime groups use the Russians to clean their dirty money.
“Russian Mafia’s Worldwide Grip”:

Nixon was very close to Henry Kissinger, and Nixon was seeking the Jewish vote. Kissinger was said to be Nixon’s “Col. House.” See the quote below from page 48 in Détente and the Nixon Doctrine, by Robert S. Litwak:
Though I think it more than just a partnership, and more that Kissinger was Nixon’s puppeteer. That was the same relation rumored to be between Col. House and Wilson.

Last, I leave you with the link to an article about the Russian Mafia, as well as quoting from it below the link. Follow the citation links:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_mafia
“Also during the 1970s and 1980s, the United States expanded its immigration policies, allowing Soviet Jews, with most settling in a southern Brooklyn area known as Brighton Beach (sometimes nicknamed as “Little Odessa”). Here is where Russian organized crime began in the US. The earliest known case of Russian crime in the area was in the mid-1970s by the “Potato Bag Gang,” a group of con artists disguised as merchants that told customers that they were selling antique gold rubles for cheap, but in fact, gave them bags of potatoes when bought in thousands. By 1983, the head of Russian organized crime in Brighton Beach was Evsei Agron.
“Pauol Mirzoyan was a prime target among other mobsters including rival Boris Goldberg and his organization, and in May 1985 Agron was assassinated. Boris “Biba” Nayfeld, his bodyguard, moved on to employ under Marat Balagula, who was believed to have succeeded Agron’s authority. In the following year, Balagula fled the country after he was convicted in a fraud scheme of Merrill Lynch customers, and was found in Frankfurt, West Germany in 1989, where he was extradited back to the US and sentenced to eight years in prison.
“Balagula would later be convicted on a separate $360,000 credit card fraud in 1992. Nayfield took Balagula’s place, partnering with the “Polish Al Capone”, Ricardo Fanchiniin, in an import-export business and setting up a heroin business. In 1990, his former friend, Monya Elson, back from a six-year prison sentence in Israel, returned to America and set up a rival heroin business, culminating in a mafia turf war.”
“When the USSR collapsed and a free market economy emerged, organized criminal groups began to take over Russia’s economy, with many ex-KGB agents and veterans of the Afghan war offering their skills to the crime bosses. Gangster summit meetings had taken place in hotels and restaurants shortly before the Soviet’s dissolution, so that top vory v zakone [Thief in law] could agree on who would rule what, and set plans on how to take over the post-Communist state. It was agreed that Vyacheslav “Yaponchik” Ivankov would be sent to Brighton Beach in 1992, allegedly because he was killing too many people in Russia and also to take control of Russian organized crime in North America. Within a year, he built an international operation that included, but was not limited to, narcotics, money laundering, and prostitution and made ties with the American Mafia and Colombian drug cartels, eventually extending to Miami, Los Angeles, and Boston. Those who went against him were usually killed.”
“The global extent of Russian organized crime wasn’t realized until Ludwig “Tarzan” Fainberg was arrested in January 1997, primarily because of arms dealing. In 1990, Fainberg moved from Brighton Beach to Miami and opened up a strip club called Porky’s, which soon became a popular hangout for underworld criminals. Fainberg himself gained a reputation as an ambassador among international crime groups, becoming especially close to Juan Almeida, a Colombian cocaine dealer. Planning to expand his cocaine business, Fainberg acted as an intermediary between Almeida and the corrupt Russian military. He helped him get six Russian military helicopters in 1993, and in the following year, helped arrange to buy a submarine for cocaine smuggling. Unfortunately for the two of them, federal agents had been keeping a close eye on Fainberg for months. Alexander Yasevich, an associate of the Russian military contact and an undercover DEA agent, was sent to verify the illegal dealing, and in 1997, Fainberg was finally arrested in Miami. Facing the possibility of life imprisonment, the latter agreed for his testimony against Almeida in exchange for a shorter sentence, which ended up being 33 months.”
“In 2009, Russian mafia groups had been said to reach over 50 countries and, in 2010, had up to 300,000 members. According to recordings released in 2015, Alexander Litvinenko, shortly before he was assassinated, claimed that Semion Mogilevich has had a “good relationship” with Vladimir Putin since the 1990s.
“On 7 June 2017, 33 Russian mafia affiliates and members were arrested and charged by the FBI, U.S. Customs and Border Protection and NYPD for extortion, racketeering, illegal gambling, firearm offenses, narcotics trafficking, wire fraud, credit card fraud, identity theft, fraud on casino slot machines using electronic hacking devices; based in Atlantic City and Philadelphia, murder-for-hire conspiracy and cigarette trafficking. They were also accused of operating secret and underground gambling dens based in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, and using violence to those who owed gambling debts, establishing nightclubs in order to sell drugs, plotting to force women associates to rob male strangers by seducing and drugging them with chloroform, and trafficking over 10,000 pounds of stolen chocolate confectionery; the chocolate was stolen from shipment containers. It is believed that 27 of the arrested are connected to the Russian mafia Shulaya clan which are largely based in New York. According to the prosecution, the Shulaya also has operations in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Florida and Nevada. According to law enforcement and the prosecution, this is one of the first federal arrests against a Russian mafia boss and his underboss or co-leader.
“On 26 September 2017, as part of a 4-year investigation, 100 Spanish Civil Guard officers carried out 18 searches in different areas of Malaga, Spain related to Russian mafia large scale money laundering. The raids resulted in the arrests of 11 members and associates of the Solntsevskaya and Izmailovskaya clans. Money, firearms and 23 high-end vehicles were also seized. The owner of Marbella FC, Alexander Grinberg, and manager of AFK Sistema, a local Malaga Spanish football club, were among those arrested.
“On 19 February 2018, 18 defendants were accused of laundering over $62 million through real estate, including with the help of Vladislav Reznik, former chairman of Rosgosstrakh; one of Russia’s largest insurance companies. The accused stood trial in Spain. The Tambov and Malyshev Russian mafia organisations were involved.
“Aleksandr Torshin is allegedly a high ranked boss in Russian mafia.”
Quoting from a Saturday, 21 November, 1998 BBC article titled, “The rise and rise of the Russian mafia”:
In 1994 Russia’s then interior minister, Mikhail Yegorov, said the number of organised crime groups in the former Soviet Union had grown from 785 during Gorbachev’s reign to 5,691.
By 1996 this estimate had grown to 8,000 groups, each with memberships of between 50 and 1,000.
The government in Moscow estimates the Russian mafia controls 40% of private business and 60% of state-owned companies.
Unofficial sources say 80% of Russian banks are controlled either directly or indirectly by criminals.
The downfall of communism left an economic, moral and social vacuum which the mafia has been only too happy to fill.
Hundreds of ex-KGB men and veterans of the Afghan war veterans offered their skills to the crime bosses.
The mafia also provided money and jobs to young men in Moscow, St Petersburg and Kiev who were struggling to cope following the collapse of the communist safety net.
Early on, in 1989, the octopus began reaching its tentacles outwards across Europe and America.
Russian emigre communities in New York’s Brighton Beach district, in Israel, Paris and London were seeded with mafia spawn.
It is estimated around £16bn ($25bn) of dirty Russian money has left the country since the fall of communism – most of which has been laundered by banks in Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Cyprus.
Another favourite target is Israel. Many Russian gangsters claim to be of Jewish origin, in order to get an Israeli passport. The Russian mafia is said to have poured £2.5bn ($4bn) into the Israeli economy.
Louis Freeh, head of the American Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), said recently the Russian mafia was the greatest threat to US national security although he later withdrew this comment.
In 1995 an FBI document stated: “If Russian organised crime could help foreign crime networks to gain access to nuclear material or other fissile weapons then the scenario becomes truly frightening.”
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/special_report/1998/03/98/russian_mafia/70095.stm
The BBC had most of it correct, when comparing it to other sources, but the migration of the Jewish Russians and Ukrainians to Brighton Beach started during the 1970’s under President Nixon, and with them came organized crime fresh from the gulags.
What is odd, is why would Louis Freeh withdraw his comment, when FBI documents state otherwise?

Did it ever occur to anyone that Donald Trump has been working with the US Government (FBI, etc) for years, and that international businesspersons regularly work with the US Government? Why did Donald Trump lease properties to Russian oligarchs? Did the US Government work with Donald Trump and his real estate business? How did the US Government gain easy access to the Trump properties to bug the residences of Russian oligarchs? Who holds the other set of keys to the doors at those properties? Who oversees the security on the buildings? Who can order the building’s security to allow federal agencies access to the properties and not say anything? Donald Trump, the landlord? It was revealed that entire floors were bugged in these buildings, which is a major undertaking by the FBI and CIA. Also, Carter Page just revealed that he had been working for the CIA and FBI for many years, and he was helping in the investigations into the oligarchs/mafia.
Donald Trump worked with Roy Cohn’s law firm. Cohn worked with Sen. Joseph McCarthy in the hunt for Communists within the US, as well as the FBI. This would have been under the FBI’s Counterintelligence Program COINTELPRO.
If the POTUS was “colluding” with these Russians, then why did they try to frame Trump, and why did the POTUS target them just after taking office? Could it be that after working with the government, Trump saw that the agencies were allowing this to take place, as well as him not condoning the dark methods used, and that he decided to stop it if he could gain the presidency?
Did President Trump have a group of politicians working with him behind the scene? What is the House Freedom Caucus? Did any of the members of the Freedom Caucus sit on the Intelligence Committee?
Why has Rudy Giuliani been close to the president from day one? Who did Rudy Giuliani successfully prosecute? What about John Durham? Who did John Durham prosecute in the past? The public cannot see the forest for the trees. It is what the media isn’t reporting that is important.
It is known that Heroin and Fentanyl are being shipped to Venezuela by China and the Russo-Chinese gangs, and that it is then shipped north by the Sinaloa cartel into the US, and then distributed to the Russian mafia in several states. Maduro has stronger ties to Russia and China than many know, resulting in the “sum of all fears,” which is nuclear weapons on the doorstep of the Americas:

Take from this what you will and connect the dots to what is taking place today. Who are the politicians connected to Brighton Beach in Brooklyn? Investigate the 8th District and the 10th District. Notice when the redistricting took place, 2012.
Also, notice the Russian mafia’s involvement in several other coastal cities on both coasts, which were named in the news articles. Under whose congressional districts have those cities been since the seventies? How can congresspeople become millionaires while in office? The Russian mafia grew under these politician’s districts. Illicit arms, drugs, humans, and nuclear material trafficking, as well as money laundering to hide their trail.
Update, 07/04/19:
Ask yourself some very simple questions. Has the FBI and the CIA worked with organized crime in the past? What about Operation Underworld during WWII and the Bay Of Pigs incident? Have they used honeytraps in the past? What about APEC in Seattle in 1993? Could the DOJ/FBI, DEA, and CIA be working with the Russian mafia, using them as spies, along with a continuing association with the Jewish mafia in the US, as well as the Sinaloa drug cartel, using them to stop other cartels and mobs, while turning a blind eye to these operations? Who was Barry Seal? What was Fast and Furious truly about? Have US Government agencies been accused of this very thing? (See Wikipedia article on the Sinaloa cartel).
Who really paid for the “dirty dossier” and who was working with Christopher Steele beforehand? Oleg Deripaska? Isn’t Mr. Deripaska a Russo-Jewish oligarch that the FBI tried to recruit as a spy?
Were politicians in both parties trying to stop President Trump from taking office? What was John McCain’s role in this before the Democrats became involved? How long has the US Government been working with Russian, Ukranian, and US organized crime? Many books have been authored on the subject, and there is congressional testimony stating the same.
Read these two articles:

The Russian mafia have always been good at creating forgeries of any document. This was reported in several of the articles listed here. Thus, we come to Paul Manafort and the so-called Ukrainian black book, which may have been fake, but the FBI used it anyway:
Update, 07/13/19
Offshore Banking And The Honeytrap Operations:
If you were told that the Jeffery Epstein case was tied to the offshore banking and shell company gig, what would you think?
Epstein was born at Coney Island, just over from Brighton Beach. He began his employment at Bear Stearns in 1980, just as the Russian mafia were advancing their toe-hold at Brighton Beach. At Bear Stearns, he “worked in the special products division, advising high-net-worth clients on tax strategies.” Did Epstein have associates in the Jewish mafia?
On the island, Epstein employed Gov. John de Jongh’s wife, Cecile de Jongh, in his Financial Trust Company as its “Office Manager.”
From an article at the Daily Caller in 2012:
Epstein, Mrs. de Jongh’s employer, has also received tax breaks from the Virgin Islands Economic Development Corporation. Those benefits permit recipients to avoid some — and in some cases, all — of their tax burden if they live in the U.S. territory for the majority of a year and fulfill certain financial and development obligations to the local economy.
Greaux said he was unsure whether Cecile de Jongh helped Epstein apply for and receive his special tax benefits. He deflected questions to the Economic Development Corporation itself, which has not responded to TheDC’s requests for comment.
Gov. John de Jongh and the tax-break program have come under increased scrutiny in recent months. According to a knowledgeable source inside the U.S. Department of Justice, de Jongh accepted part of a $20 million cash-bribe payout from alleged financial criminals who are under sealed federal indictments, in exchange for favors from his administration.
The Virgin Islands Economic Development Corporation program has also become a national political football since TheDC revealed the involvement of Marjorie Rawls Roberts, a major campaign-donation “bundler” for President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign
How does a real estate scam work? You purchase a property, which you then transfer the ownership of to an offshore shell company. In Epstein’s case, and his Upper-East-Side Manhattan residence, he transferred it to a shell company called Maple, Inc., which he also owned, in the Virgin Islands. Once done, you take residence in the property owned by the shell company. The offshore shell company may protect it from litigation in the future, and it allows the person to escape property tax. See the article below.
As most know, the Virgin Islands are split between the US and Britain. The Caribbean is the tax haven for the 1%. How could governments control the top 1%? How could governments control the Russian mafia/oligarchs? For that matter, how could organized crime control politicians and business leaders? What is a honeytrap?

What is Les Wexner’s ancestry? Ukrainian and Russian? Is he Jewish, and what are his connections? What about his associates? Do they have Russian and Ukrainian ancestry? What about ancestry from the old Soviet bloc countries? Were any associated with organized crime or the intelligence agencies? What was Operation Underworld?
As far as Epstein’s Island temple, it looks to be a Mosque, blue and white in color, gold domed, and its scheme is similar to the Islamic Center of Cleveland (Grand Mosque), Parma, Ohio. It also looks similar to certain bathhouses in the Middle-East, which are tied to ancient sex cults similar to the Gnostic Carpocratians, Borborites, and Adamites. However, many synagogues have two spires and a dome, and what religion also uses blue and white? There were two large gilded Cockatoos on top replacing the twin spires (the Cockatoos and dome are now missing, reportedly due to storm damage). Those knowledgeable in arcane symbolism will find that the Cockatoo symbolizes “sexual control” and it is tied to the religion of the Asmat people of Papua, New Guinea. Now, one must ask, why did Mr. Epstein have a mosque, bathhouse, or synagogue on his island, with that symbology?

Have you seen certain photographs of certain parties in the US, where the participants wore body paint and danced in the nude? In the video below, notice the body paint and notice which bird is hunted, and how its feathers are made into a headdress. Notice which religion is replacing theirs, and notice the Maltese Cross, as well as investigate the Canons Regular of the Order of the Holy Cross. Where is this order located? Could this order allow the Asmat people to create a new religious sect which kept some of their ceremony and religious belief? Why would this be tied to a mosque/bathhouse in the Caribbean?

Update, 07/22/19 and on 08/25/19:
I just run across an article written by Whitney Webb on 07/18/19, at MintPress, titled: Hidden in Plain Sight: The Shocking Origins of the Jeffrey Epstein Case. Here, she uncovers the same as I, about the Jewish mafia using honeytraps prior to the creation of the OSS and the CIA. This has been written about, before, by several authors. This blackmail method was noticed by the Soviets who incorporated it later on within the KGB during the seventies.
There are many factors involving the elite mentioned, and not all may be or are guilty. Guilt by association and being guilty of an actual crime are horses of a different color. Also, after the release of some of the victims transcripts by the Palm Beach Police, and after reviewing them, as well as reading statements made by the victim’s attorneys, and knowing how some women will try to take advantage of a situation, especially claiming that they were a victim when they were never involved with the crime, it is best left to the investigators and the courts. There are unscrupulous women who will make any claim, or state any thing, to receive a huge paycheck. Men are the same way. Political hitmen or hitwomen make use of them all the time, as well as unscrupulous attorneys and foreign actors.
In the Epstein flight logs, President Trump, during the nineties, flew one trip with Epstein, from Florida to New York, which was before he booted Epstein from Mar-a-Lago over soliciting an underage employee. Remember, it was the POTUS who willingly helped the victim’s attorney when nobody else would. Question everything you read about this case from today’s press, when the press tries to tar people. Mrs. Webb questioned everything by researching all the past history for her article and named her sources.
Below, I quote the first few paragraphs of her article, and give a link to the full story.
Claims of Epstein’s links and his involvement in a sophisticated, well-funded sexual blackmail operation have, surprisingly, spurred few media outlets to examine the history of intelligence agencies both in the U.S. and abroad conducting similar sexual blackmail operations, many of which also involved underage prostitutes.
In the U.S. alone, the CIA operated numerous sexual blackmail operations throughout the country, employing prostitutes to target foreign diplomats in what the Washington Post once nicknamed the CIA’s “love traps.” If one goes even farther back into the U.S. historical record it becomes apparent that these tactics and their use against powerful political and influential figures significantly predate the CIA and even its precursor, the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). In fact, they were pioneered years earlier by none other than the American mafia.
In the course of this investigation, MintPress discovered that a handful of figures who were influential in American organized crime during and after Prohibition were directly engaged in sexual blackmail operations that they used for their own, often dark, purposes.
In Part I of this exclusive investigation, MintPress will examine how a mob-linked businessman with deep ties to notorious gangster Meyer Lansky developed close ties with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) while also running a sexual blackmail operation for decades, which later became a covert part of the anti-communist crusade of the 1950s led by Senator Joseph McCarthy (R-WI), himself known throughout Washington for having a habit of drunkenly groping underage teenaged girls.
Yet, it would be one of McCarthy’s closest aides who would take over the ring in later years, trafficking minors and expanding this sexual blackmail operation at the same time he expanded his own political influence, putting him in close contact with prominent figures including former President Ronald Reagan and a man who would later become president, Donald Trump.
As will be revealed in Part II, after his death, this blackmail operation continued under various successors in different cities and there is strong evidence that Jeffrey Epstein became one of them.

Spence’s name came to national prominence in the aftermath of a June 28, 1989 article in the Washington Times identifying Spence as a customer of a homosexual escort service being investigated by the Secret Service, the District of Columbia Police and the United States Attorney’s Office for suspected credit card fraud.
Months after the scandal had died down, and a few weeks before Spence was found in a room of the Boston Ritz-Carlton Hotel, he was asked who had given him the “key” to the White House. Michael Hedges and Jerry Seper of The Washington Times reported that “Mr. Spence hinted the tours were arranged by ‘top level’ persons”, including Donald Gregg, national security adviser to Vice President George H. W. Bush at the time the tours were given.
Soviet and KGB Honeytraps:
In the article below, it states that the Soviet Union and KGB did not start using the pederast honeytrap until the late 1970s under Yuri Andropov, though it has been allegedly used by organized crime since the 1930s, and possibly before that by British intelligence:
Around the same time, two other eyewitness sources of Nyquist’s say the Soviet Union began conducting experiments in its Komsomol camps on how to grow sexual perversions. The camps were for members of the communist Young Pioneers and included children aged 10 to 15. Nyquist interprets these Kosmosol events as connected to the Andropov plan his source told him about.
According to Nyquist, the Soviets were organizing orgies in some of the camps, and “they were trying to locate perverts to recruit them.”
“The idea was that in these Komsomol camps they were looking for people who had psychological problems that caused them to become sexually perverse in different ways,” Nyquist said. “It was like they were studying different perversions and the causes, and how to cultivate that, how to extend it, what kind of things draw people toward blacker perversions.”

A very similar story to Epstein hit Britain during the 1960s, centered around a young “callgirl” or “dancer” named Christine Keeler, and a DO who did massage, named Stephen Ward, that supplied the girls to the elite, which brought down John Profumo, the Secretary of State for War, and the Prime Minister, Harold Macmillan, as well as implicated several other high profile people in the power elite. It, too, was supposedly targeting Russians in London with honeytraps. It was tied to the most wealthy power elite, of both the UK and US, with Lord Astor and the Cliveden Set, and it was allegedly a MI5 honeytrap operation.
Ward’s “parties were noted for their social mix: ‘a barrister, a barrow-boy, a writer, a motor salesman, a peer, and always, for some reason, a steady stream of pretty girls.'”
One of the girls associated with this, Mandy Rice-Davies, was allegedly 16 when she became a “dancer,” or as the prosecution called her, a prostitute. “At 16 she [Rice-Davies] went to London as ‘Miss Austin’ at the Earls Court Motor Show, and then worked as a dancer at Murray’s Cabaret Club in Soho.” However, there may have been other girls not mentioned in the case. Ward selected the girls at strip-clubs from Soho to Piccadilly Circus.
Zoro Ranch:
I also think that the authorities should look at Epstein’s Zoro Ranch in New Mexico, and go over it with a fine-toothed comb, as the media doesn’t show the full scope of its size and operation. The ranch has an airstrip along with helicopter pads. Remember Epstein’s alleged ties to the Mena Airport and Iran-Contra? What could be flown into and out of this ranch? Could this be another part of Southern Air Transport? Everywhere one turns, the same names seem to pop up.
Update, 08/03/19:
More crackdowns are occurring on offshore banks who launder and hide money. The Trump Justice Department isn’t dragging its feet, and they will not ignore things that the Obama and Bush departments did. On July 19, 2019, the DOJ announced another action against the Swiss Banque Bonhôte & Cie SA, which was trying to be difficult by hiding accounts, was fined a second time in the amount of $1,200,000. After this second fine, they agreed to turn over information on eight other accounts, which they had failed to disclose, and provide the names of other banks that made the transactions to them.
The Swiss Bank Program, announced on Aug. 29, 2013, provided a path for Swiss banks to resolve potential criminal liabilities in the United States relating to offshore banking services provided to United States taxpayers.
The Department executed non-prosecution agreements with 80 banks between March 2015 and January 2016. The Department imposed a total of more than $1.36 billion in Swiss Bank Program penalties. Pursuant to today’s agreement, Bonhôte will pay an additional sum of $1,200,000 and will provide supplemental information regarding its U.S.-related account population, which now includes eight additional accounts with assets under management of approximately $33 million.
Every bank that signed a non-prosecution agreement in the Swiss Bank Program represented that it had disclosed all known U.S.-related accounts that were open at each bank between Aug. 1, 2008, and Dec. 31, 2014. Each bank also represented that during the term of each non-prosecution agreement it would continue to disclose all material information relating to its U.S.-related accounts. Other than the failure to disclose the additional eight U.S.-related accounts, Bonhôte has otherwise fully cooperated with the Department with respect to the bank’s obligations under the non-prosecution agreement and with the additional U.S.-related accounts.
“The Department of Justice continues to examine the information provided by Swiss banks to the Department and will continue to work closely with our partners at the Internal Revenue Service to ensure that American taxpayers are meeting their reporting and tax obligations with respect to foreign bank accounts,” said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Richard E. Zuckerman, head of the Tax Division. “We expect banks to fully cooperate with the Department and continue to provide information about U.S. offshore accounts.”
If I were the CEO or CFO of the banks in several nations, especially the micronations, I would be sweating right now.
Justice Department Announces Addendum to Swiss Bank Program Category 2 Non-Prosecution Agreement with Banque Bonhôte & Cie SA:
Another action by the Trump DOJ is the trial of the “Trained To Go” (TTG) crime gang’s leader in Baltimore that was announced on July, 22, 2019. They were dealing Heroin and Cocaine throughout the Baltimore area, and were responsible for several murders.
U.S. District Judge Catherine C. Blake sentenced Timothy Floyd, aka Tim Rod, 28, of Baltimore, to serve 30 years in federal prison, followed by five years of supervised release, for conspiring to participate in a drug distribution conspiracy and a violent racketeering enterprise known as Trained To Go (TTG). The racketeering conspiracy included eight murders, as well as drug trafficking and witness intimidation. Floyd and his co-defendants were also convicted of a drug distribution conspiracy involving heroin, marijuana, and cocaine. The sentence was imposed on July 19.
The sentence was announced by Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division; U.S. Attorney Robert K. Hur for the District of Maryland; Special Agent in Charge Jennifer C. Boone of the FBI Baltimore Field Office; Commissioner Michael Harrison of the Baltimore Police Department; Special Agent in Charge Rob Cekada of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Baltimore Field Division; Assistant Special Agent in Charge Don A. Hibbert of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Baltimore District Office; Anne Arundel County Police Chief Tim Altomare and Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby.
According to the evidence presented at their 24-day trial, Floyd and his co-defendants are all members of TTG, a criminal organization that operated in the Sandtown neighborhood of West Baltimore, whose members engaged in drug distribution and acts of violence including murder, armed robbery, and witness intimidation. As part of the conspiracy, each defendant agreed that a conspirator would commit at least two acts of racketeering activity for TTG.
The evidence at trial showed that members and associates of TTG sold heroin, cocaine, and marijuana, and worked to defend their exclusive right to control who sold narcotics in TTG territory. Floyd served as one of TTG’s primary distributors of heroin and marijuana, routinely selling “packs” of heroin and gram quantities of marijuana from multiple locations in Sandtown. Typically, a “pack” contained between 25 and 50 gel capsules of heroin. In addition, the evidence proved that between May 20, 2010 and Jan. 9, 2017, Floyd, his co-defendants, and other members of TTG committed acts of violence, including murders, shootings, armed robbery, and witness intimidation. Murders were committed in retaliation for individuals robbing TTG members of drugs and drug proceeds, or while TTG members robbed others of their drugs and drug proceeds, as well as in murder-for-hire schemes. Further, the defendants engaged in witness intimidation through violence or threats of violence, to prevent individuals from cooperating with law enforcement.
The leader of the gang, Montana Barronette, aka Tana, and Tanner, 23, and his brother, Terrell Sivells, aka Rell, 27, both of Baltimore, were each sentenced to life in prison on Feb. 15 and April 26, 2019, respectively. Co-defendants Brandon Wilson, aka Ali, 24, and Taurus Tillman, aka Tash, 30, both of Baltimore, were each sentenced to serve 25 years in prison on March 1 and May 21, 2019, respectively. Two other co-defendants, John Harrison, aka Binkie, 28, and Linton Broughton, aka Marty, 25, both from Baltimore, were sentenced to serve life in prison and to 30 years in prison, respectively, on March 15, 2019. Three other TTG members previously pleaded guilty and were sentenced to between five and 25 years in prison.
This is the same city that it’s congressman claims is safe and clean. This is the same city cited by the POTUS over its drug, crime, rat, and garbage problem. It will be clean and safe before long, with or without the representative’s help. Ask yourself why the MSM is not mentioning the targeting of organized crime around the US.

Past History: The Power Elite and the Anglo-American Establishment. Updated 09/02/19
Go back to the formation of the British East India Company, the opium wars, and finally, the oil found in Persia in 1908. At the time, the control of Persia was split between Russia and Britain, with Russia controlling the north, and Britain the south. The agreement to control Asia between the two was called the Great Game. “Russia was fearful of British commercial and military inroads into Central Asia, and Britain was fearful of Russia adding “the jewel in the crown”, India, to the vast empire that Russia was building in Asia.” Britain found oil in the neutral territory in Persia, and the Anglo-Persian Oil Co. was created. This company later became the Anglo-Iranian Oil Co. and British Petroleum. Germany had also cut a deal with the Ottoman Empire to install a railway, known as the Berlin-Baghdad Railway, through Turkey, to ship oil to Germany, as well as receiving a wide right of way where they could drill for oil on either side of the track. Germany also “gained access to and ownership of oil fields in Iraq, and with a line to the port of Basra [they] would have gained better access to the eastern parts of the German colonial empire, by avoiding the Suez Canal.” This is really what led to WWI in my view as well as many others because Britain and her main ally, the US, were converting their navies from coal to oil.
What did Britain need to do to remove their competition, and what was their national security objective?
Did the British have any oil company associates in the US? Standard Oil?
How could Russia have been removed from Persia in 1917?
Today, the conflicts in the Middle-East, mainly fought by proxy wars, are all about pipelines to feed both oil and natural gas to Europe. On top of that, the Leviathan oil and gas field was just found off the coast of Israel and there are oil and gas reserves in the Golan Heights. The Russian government, working with Iran, Syria, and Turkey, is trying to put its hand on the spigot for all of it.
There are those working for Genie Energy Ltd., who look to drill in the Golan Heights, that were involved in the Crossfire Hurricane plot against President Trump. What one must remember about the Trump campaign, is that many people were placed around Trump by the GOP who were from the earlier Bush administration or from Republican think tanks, with some going back to the Nixon administration, and they were directly tied to John McCain who was directly tied to the creation of the Steele Dossier. Oddly enough, the very people in Genie Energy were from the Bush Administration and also tied to Jeffery Epstein and his associates in the Mega Group.
Ask yourself a simple question: where were the alleged Russians from? Do they reside in Russia and the Ukraine, or were they those of Russian and Ukrainian descent who had left to settle within the US and Britain, such as the oligarchs, that started arriving under the Nixon administration at Kissinger’s request, or had come to the US early on? Were they not Russian and Ukrainian Jewish migrants now living in such places as Brighton Beach, New York, and at London, England? According to the latest Wikipedia articles:
Genie Energy Ltd. is an American energy company headquartered in Newark, New Jersey. It is a holding company comprising Genie Retail Energy, a retail energy provider in the United States, and Genie Oil and Gas, which pursued a conventional oil exploration project in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights.
Genie was part of IDT Corporation but was spun off on October 31, 2011, at which point Class B common stock of Genie Energy Ltd. began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol “GNE”.
Genie’s founder, chairman, controlling shareholder and CEO is Howard Jonas. Avi Goldin serves as the company’s CFO, Michael Stein is the company’s COO and Geoffrey Rochwarger serves as Vice Chairman. The president of its Israeli subsidiary is Effie Eitam. Genie Energy’s Strategic advisory board is composed of: Dick Cheney (former vice president of the United States), Rupert Murdoch (media mogul and chairman of News Corp), James Woolsey (former CIA director), Larry Summers (former head of the US Treasury), Bill Richardson (former Governor of New Mexico, ex-ambassador to the United Nations and United States Energy Secretary), Michael Steinhardt, Jacob Rothschild, and Mary Landrieu, former United States Senator from Louisiana.
In 2013, IDT Energy, Inc., a subsidiary of Genie Energy, acquired both Dallas-based Diversegy, LLC a commercial energy advisory and its network marketing channel, Epiq Energy. They are now wholly owned subsidiaries of Genie Energy Ltd.
Genie Retail Energy (GRE) is an operating division of Genie Energy holding Genie Energy’s deregulated energy provider, or retail energy provider (REP), businesses. GRE purchases electricity and natural gas in the wholesale markets which it resells to residential and small business customers in New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire,Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Ohio, Rhode Island, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maine, Delaware, Maryland, and Washington, DC. Commercial natural gas supply customers are also served in the state of Florida. Like other REP’s, GRE competes against incumbent electric and gas utilities as well as over 100 other REPs. GRE offers a variety of product offerings including green energy from renewable resources, fixed rate plans, and variable rate plans that allow its customers to change supplier at any time. In November 2016, Genie Energy acquired Retail Energy Holdings, LLC. (REH), and added REH’s brand, Town Square Energy, and meters to Gene Retail Energy’s portfolio. In August 2017, Genie Energy announced a joint venture to enter the retail energy market and begin customer acquisition in the United Kingdom. Also in August 2017, Genie Retail Energy acquired Mirabito Natural Gas, a Ft. Lauderdale, Florida-based natural gas supplier to commercial customers.
Genie Oil and Gas (GOGAS) explored for conventional oil in the Golan Heights through its Afek Oil and Gas subsidiary, and pursued oil shale projects through American Shale Oil (AMSO), Israel Energy Initiatives (IEI) and Genie Energy Mongolia. AMSO, IEI, and Genie Energy Mongolia are no longer active. 89% of GOGAS was owned by Genie Energy while Jacob Rothschild, Michael Steinhardt and Rupert Murdoch among others held minority interests.
In January 2019, Genie Retail Energy acquired a majority stake in Lumo Energia, a Finnish supplier of renewable electricity.

The Great Game never ended. After WWI, only the main player changed. The US became involved with Britain in the Anglo-American Establishment, and the US carried the “big stick.” The “Establishment” and the “Special Relationship” are behind most of what we are seeing today. The establishment’s power elite have been pulling their puppets strings in Washington DC and London since that time. This is what is behind the “Deep State.” They use any method at their disposal to advance the cause.

More on money laundering for drugs. Update, 09/19/19:
Wells Fargo Personal Banker Pleads Guilty to Money Laundering Charges, 05/16/19:
SAN DIEGO – Luis Fernando Figueroa of Tijuana pleaded guilty in federal court today to money laundering charges, admitting that he worked with others to launder and transfer money to Mexico through accounts he opened up at Wells Fargo as a personal banker.
Figueroa’s arrest by the FBI in November 2018 was the last in a string of indictments and arrests tied to the international money laundering organization based in Tijuana, Mexico but operating primarily in San Diego. To date, eight former members and leaders of the organization have been arrested and charged in San Diego. Six of those arrested have pleaded guilty.
According to the indictment and other public records, the international money laundering organization laundered approximately $19.6 million dollars in narcotics proceeds on behalf of Mexican based drug trafficking organizations to include the Sinaloa Cartel between 2014 and 2016.
“We can’t allow our banks to be laundromats for cartel cash,” said U.S. Attorney Robert Brewer. “Bank employees who launder drug money for traffickers will face prosecution and prison.”
“Today’s conviction shows the dedication and depth of the FBI’s efforts to dismantle money laundering organizations,” said Suzanne Turner, FBI Acting Special Agent in Charge of the San Diego Field Office. “With our law enforcement partners, we will continue to strike at the heart of narcotics trafficking by pursuing each and every member of money laundering organizations who feed the proceeds of illegal and dangerous drug trafficking back to the cartels.”
According to court documents, the money laundering organization recruited individuals to serve as funnel account holders to open personal bank accounts at Wells Fargo Bank and other U.S. banks. Figueroa, as a personal banker with Wells Fargo, admitted in his plea agreement that he knowingly opened personal bank accounts at Wells Fargo for the funnel account holders, knowing that those personal accounts would be used to launder funds to Mexico.
Other members of the money laundering organization, known as couriers, travelled to Los Angeles, Chicago, Charlotte, Boston, New Jersey, and New York City to pick up bulk cash narcotics proceeds that ranged from thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars in narcotics proceeds. The couriers made contact with individuals holding the bulk cash in private residences or public places such as parking lots and retail stores. The cash was typically concealed in shopping bags, duffel bags or shoeboxes.
Once in possession of the money, the couriers deposited the bulk cash in increments of $22,000 to $45,000 into the funnel bank accounts at Wells Fargo Bank and other U.S. banks controlled by the money laundering organization. The funds were then wire transferred from the funnel accounts to a series of Mexico based shell companies operated by the money laundering organization. Figueroa himself made multiple wire transfers from the funnel accounts knowing that the funds were from unlawful activity. Once in Mexico, the funds were transferred to representatives of the Sinaloa Cartel.
This case is the result of ongoing efforts by the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF), a partnership that brings together the combined expertise of federal, state and local law enforcement. The principal mission of the OCDETF program is to identify, disrupt, dismantle and prosecute high-level members of drug trafficking, weapons trafficking, and money laundering organizations and enterprises. This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Blanca Quintero.
22 Individuals Named in Federal Indictments Charging Money Laundering and Drug Trafficking, 08/21/18:
TULSA, Okla.— United States Attorney Trent Shores announced that a federal Grand Jury indicted 22 people for their roles in drug trafficking and money laundering operations that included the use of Casa Herrera, a local money remitter business.
The two Indictments charged Alfredo Herrera, 73, of Bartlesville, Domingo Aguirre, 60, of Tulsa, and Javier Passement, 53, of Tulsa, with violating federal money laundering and drug conspiracy statutes. Herrera is the owner and operator of Casa Herrera. Aguirre and Passement worked as employees of Casa Herrera. The Grand Jury also indicted Pedro Perez, Jr., 65, of Broken Arrow, who owns and operates Servicios Perez, another local money remitter business alleged to have laundered drug proceeds to a Mexican source of supply. The Indictments allege that these money remitter businesses distributed large quantities of methamphetamine throughout Tulsa and surrounding areas. According to the Indictments, drug proceeds would be transmitted by wire transfer to a Mexican source of supply using “nominee names.” A “nominee name” is used to hide the true recipient of the money.
United States Attorney Shores stated, “Drug abuse in our country is an epidemic. We must dismantle the criminal organizations bringing drugs into our communities. This Indictment is a step toward disrupting the flow of methamphetamine from Mexican sources of supply into Tulsa. Methamphetamine has inflicted too much damage on Oklahomans. My office will seek to hold these drug dealers accountable in a federal court.”
These Indictments are the result of a joint investigation involving the Drug Enforcement Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Homeland Security Investigations, and Tulsa Police Department.
“The Drug Enforcement Administration appreciates the extensive collaborative effort of our local, state, and federal partners that resulted in the successful federal indictment
of 22 defendants in this multi-jurisdictional case which targeted a Mexico-based methamphetamine distribution organization with direct ties to Mexican Cartel sources. The dismantlement of this drug trafficking organization represents yet another outstanding example of what can be accomplished when law enforcement resources at all levels are combined and focused on a common goal,” said Richard W. Salter Jr., Assistant Special Agent in Charge DEA – Oklahoma.
Kathryn Peterson, Special Agent in Charge, FBI-Oklahoma City Division, further stated, “The Federal Bureau of Investigation remains committed to working with our local, state, and federal partners to protect the citizens of Oklahoma against organized crime and criminal actors whose illegal activities threaten the stability of the communities we serve.”
Chief Chuck Jordan of the Tulsa Police Department said, “The Tulsa Police Department will continue to protect its citizens from these violent drug cartel organizations operating in Tulsa by working in partnership with all of our federal law enforcement partners and the United States Attorney’s Office on cases such as this. The men and women of the Special Investigations Division, especially, contributed a lot of time and hard work towards this case and I’m proud of their efforts.”
The cases will be prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Joel-lyn A. McCormick. AUSA McCormick serves as the lead attorney for the United States Attorney’s Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces.
An Indictment is a formal statement of charges or alleged violations of law. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
Dual/Iranian Canadian National Sentenced for International Money Laundering, 11/15/18:

United States Attorney Andrew E. Lelling; Brian D. Boyle, Special Agent in Charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration, New England Field Division; and Kristina O’Connell, Special Agent in Charge of the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigations in Boston, made the announcement today. Assistant U.S. Attorney Susan Winkler of Lelling’s Narcotics and Money Laundering Unit prosecuted the case.
Author’s Viewpoint:
I have always been an avid follower of political history, and I watched on as some of this came to light when I was a young man in the seventies. The outing of COINTELPRO, by the Church Committee, in my opinion, did great damage to our nation and our program to circumvent the radical Communist movement and their infiltration of the US Government.
Do I think that the CIA and the FBI’s Counter Intelligence Program is needed? Yes, I do, most definitely.
Do I think that we may have taken it too far, and sided with some very questionable people? Yes, I do.
Do I think that certain politicians did what they could to hamper our government in its mission to circumvent Communism? Most assuredly, and their actions allowed terrorists, such as the Weather Underground, to escape justice.
Do I think that the Patriot Act legalized the actions once taken by COINTELPRO? Yes.
Do I still back the Counter Intelligence Program? Yes, most certainly, as long as they can man it with those who are politically neutral. We do not need any more activists who try to subvert the US Government and the Presidency, nor should we use methods and associations as dark as other nations. There are other alternatives. We should also investigate those in the US Government who try to subvert our counterintelligence operations involved in stopping the spread of Communism around the globe, and particularly, in the Americas.
