None of the charges related to Trump.
And the Cohen charge had to do with lying over something he didn’t need to lie about. It was a project before he was ever elected. And which they decided not to pursue. And give me any law stating US companies, at the time could not do business in Russia. Unless you believe that other US companies are actually guilty of a crime for doing business with Russia and want to see them all charged-
American Companies Thriving In Russia: Is There Something To Be Ashamed About?
Here's who's doing business with the bad guys.
On July 13,
Pfizer closed a joint venture agreement with Russian pharmaceutical company NovaMedica.
Boeing has been in Russia for decades. About five years ago, it announced plans to
invest $27 billion over the
next 30 years. In July 2015, an
agreement was signed between Russian titanium manufacturer VSMPO-Avisma Corporation, Boeing and the Ural Federal University for joint research and development projects.
Ford has been in Russia for 13 years. In April 2015, the joint Russian-American venture
Ford Sollers launched the production of the Ford Transit. T
he American brand launched four new vehicles in Russia last year, including the Focus and Fiesta models sold here.
U.S. companies with an existing presence in Russia include,
PepsiCo PEP -2.15%PEP -2.15%, Procter&Gamble, McDonald's, Mondelez International, General Motors, Johnson & Johnson, Cargill, Alcoa, and General Electric.
GE recently signed a joint venture with oil firm Rosneft in expectation that Washington will actually one day lift sanctions on oil firms.
Morgan Stanley, not Trump International, is a
yuuuuge American investor in Russian real estate, according to Knight Frank. In April,
a fund controlled by Morgan Stanley began negotiations to acquire several shopping centers in Moscow. That same month, their real estate investing fund
acquired the Metropolis in Moscow for $1.2 billion from Capital Partners, a Kazakhstan developer.
American retailers continue to develop their businesses in Russia. They are not sanctioned to do so. Many new American brands entered the Russian market over the last two years, including
Forever 21 and
Crate & Barrel in 2014.
Forever 21 must hate America and love Putin. It set up shop in the MEGA Teply Stan Mall in Moscow in 2014. (MEGA Teply company photo)
American food companies have been expanding, even while Russia was busy annexing parts of Ukraine real estate, and arming rebels in the Donbass for which it was sanctioned in 2014. Last year,
Starbucks opened its 100th store in Russia.
Krispy Kreme opened its first store in 2013. It now has
five.
According to a
New York Times article from April 2015, even the Clinton Foundation liked Russians as recent as 2013. The Russian state owned atomic energy firm Rosatom acquired
Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, and thanks to recommendations by Hillary Clinton, a $2.35 million donation was made to the Foundation run by her and former president Bill Clinton, the
New York Times reported.
In other words, the Russians can't be all that bad.
I want every person who has violated federal law to be prosecuted, why do you support a two tier justice system? one for us and another one for political elites?
You know what, you’re right. Good luck with Hillary! I hope you’re not a hypocrite and feel the same way about all the criminal’s in Trump’s cabal! Toodaloo!
I said every person, no qualifiers, no party distinctions. Everyone subject to the same laws. I thought it was clear.
As to the Trump people, nothing that Heir Mewler has found so far has implicated Trump or the campaign in any way, he is indicting and charging people for crimes they committed either 20 years ago or as part of his inquisition. He is trying to get one of them to flip and make up something about trump, but he has failed because there is nothing.
Wow
the truth wows you? interesting.
People from Trump's campaign are literally in jail as we speak. But they never had anything to do with Trump. Nope nope nope. Retarded.
