A blockbuster report from The Washington Post lays out the very, very, very damning evidence that, near the end of Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, he wasn’t just illegally covering up payments to porn star paramour Stormy Daniels, but on the verge of getting illegal millions from the Egypt government. After a long DOJ investigation, Trump Attorney General Bill Barr was instrumental in getting it shut down.
The Post did an amazing job digging into the long, complicated details of this story. I highly recommend reading the entire article, if you can first check your outrage. Despite the incriminating evidence, the statute of limitations has now passed.
The Post report begins with an overview:
Five days before Donald Trump became president in January 2017, a manager at a bank branch in Cairo received an unusual letter from an organization linked to the Egyptian intelligence service. It asked the bank to “kindly withdraw” nearly $10 million from the organization’s account — all in cash.
