'Impeachable': Explosive report on Trump's massive crypto 'scandal' stuns observers

www.rawstory.com

The New York Times on Monday published a blockbuster report detailing how US President Donald Trump’s administration gave the United Arab Emirates access to high-powered artificial intelligence chips just days after receiving a massive investment in Trump’s cryptocurrency startup.

As the Times report documented, Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a member of the United Arab Emirates’ (UAE) ruling family, had one of his investment firms deposit $2 billion into World Liberty Financial, the startup founded by members of the Trump family and the family of Trump Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff.

Just two weeks later, wrote the Times, “the White House agreed to allow the UAE access to hundreds of thousands of the world’s most advanced and scarce computer chips, a crucial tool in the high-stakes race to dominate artificial intelligence,” despite national security concerns about these chips being shared with China.

Wake me up the day this SOB suffers any actual consequences for anything he does.
- I too want to sleep forever
  :(
- To be fair, he has suffered consequences, like Jean Carol, humiliations by Obama, tons of companies going under, etc. He just blames others for it, so it doesn't mean much. He's not a happy dude either and his health is deteriorating fast. I just think they're not equal to his crimes.
  
  his health is deteriorating fast.
  The man is nearly in his '80s... He could be the happiest man in the world and his health would likely be deteriorating.
  That he's lived so long when better men have died early is proof enough that God doesn't exist.
He did all of this in plain sight, with people pointing it out in real time. How is anyone at all caught off guard about any of it?
- The common clay of the new west.
Lol, I guess we now know why he had a tantrum last night and is suing the NYT for 15 billion dollars.

- And by doing so, he’s just calling more attention to something that was probably able to be brushed under the rug because of how fucking rich these people are
  
  The NYT is owned 90% by a family who has owned it for over a 100 years. He might be barking up the wrong tree here. I fucking hope so.
He's been doing impeachable things every fucking day. How will this make any difference?
I’m stunned that the observers were stunned
it has been 9 years of this and they're still posting this cope
- it has been 9 years of this and they're still posting this cope
  "User slams every single citizen in the United States for a decade of getting high as fuck on their own supply. You'll never believe what he does next."
  It's what's called journalism nowadays I guess. It's really fuckin tragic.
and nothing will be done about it
- What can we do about it? Tell me something I can go out and do today or this weekend. I'm sick of sitting on my hands. Feels like protests do nothing
  
  You? Not much, people in government could do a lot, though. They won't. but they could. The most you can do about this is grass roots campaigns to put pressure on your local reps to do something for you.
Yea, but the Republicans won't do it. They want to destroy the nation.
Idk guys this sounds like hate speech, don't you know we can't accuse the leaders in the regime of any crimes?
- Or shitty podcasters
