- THE U.S. JUST BANNED ANONYMOUS SHELL COMPANIES
- Kind of remarkable more people aren't aware that China's currently running the largest concentration camp system the world has seen since the Holocaust.
- This should be a far bigger story: the DOJ says the finance chair for the Republican National Committee was secretly working as a foreign agent for China, and directly lobbying the American president.
- Two things Tulsi Gabbard decided not to vote for: 1. Affirming the U.S. won’t recognize Russian claims in Crimea 2. Impeaching Trump
- Replying to @cjcmichel"If homosexuality can affect your marriage, then one of you is gay" #Stonewall
- Really is tough to overstate how massive this passing will be. Banning anonymous shell companies in the U.S. would be the biggest anti-money laundering move the country has taken in nearly 20 years—and potentially ever.HUGE NEWS coming on heels of the massive @BuzzFeedNews & @ICIJorg global #FinCENFiles investigation: the anti-money laundering legislation has bipartisan support and was just included in the annual defense spending bill.
- The anti-Lukashenko turnout in Minsk today is incredible:Police: „Dear citizens, this is an unauthorized mass meeting...“ But people dont care, even the street which leads to the square is PACKED.
00:00 - Free Tatarstan. Free Bashkiria. Free Chechnya. Free Buryatia. Free Dagestan. Free Tuva. Free Karelia. Free Chuvashia. Free Sakha. End Moscow’s empire.
- Replying to @cjcmichelPardon the all-caps, but the Senate's veto override today means that the U.S. A) just eliminated the primary building block in America's transformation into an offshore haven, and B) passed the most sweeping counter-kleptocracy reforms in decades—potentially ever.
- NEW: Ivanka Trump likes to pose as a successful businesswoman. But in looking through her major projects—in Azerbaijan, Panama, and New York—one thing is clear: She's just as steeped in corruption, fraud, and money laundering concerns as her father.
- Fingers crossed that this meme makes it into future history books.
- This is a massive, massive deal in the world of counter-kleptocracy—the U.S. is finally ending the gargantuan anti-money laundering loopholes for real estate, private equity, hedge funds, and more. Can't overstate how important this is. What a feat.We welcome the Treasury Department's decision to close off crucial pathways for Russian money laundering and sanctions evasion through real estate and private equity. fincen.gov/news/news-rele…fincen.govFinCEN.govRules Address Critical Vulnerabilities in the U.S. Financial System, Protect National Security
