Trump Hosted "Small-Time Mobster" Joey "No Socks" Cinque at New Year's Party
The Guardian ^ | 01/03/2017 | Lauren Gambino

Donald Trump rang in 2017 at a New Year’s Eve bash at his Mar-a-Lago estate with Joseph Cinque – reportedly a convicted felon who goes by the nickname “Joey No Socks”.

Cinque, a longtime acquaintance of Trump’s, can be seen grinning on stage as the president-elect reads off a list of accomplishments he intends to achieve in office.

In a video of the speech, which was obtained and published by the Palm Beach Daily News, Cinque, wearing a tuxedo, claps and cheers loudly – even pumping his arms in the air when Trump pledges to repeal the Barack Obama’s signature healthcare law, the Affordable Care Act. On Trump’s other side, a man awkwardly holds what appears to be a gilded statue of a bald eagle. Donald Trump abandons press pool again as he plays golf at Florida club

Cinque runs the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences, a company whose primary action is to bestow Star Diamond awards, “the most prestigious award of true excellence in hospitality”, according to its website

Like we didn’t know DJT had to deal with these types of characters? He has buildings in NYC and New Jersey. Try doing construction in either of those states and not run into a goodfella.

Sandy "Socks" Berger

Rep. Tom Davis, R-Va., is charging a cover-up by the Justice Department in connection with the 2003 theft and destruction of top secret documents by Clinton National Security Advisor Sandy Berger. Davis also told FOX News that he is not convinced that Berger was not acting under direction from the Clinton Administration.

“I’m not convinced that he was acting alone,” Davis said. “They could have well said, ‘Sandy, do you remember that document way back — that I wrote to you ... We can’t get this into the record. This is gonna make us look terrible.’ “

Davis’ comments came in a FOX News special, “Socks, Scissors, Paper: The Sandy Berger Caper,” to be broadcast on FOX News Channel on Saturday, March 31 at 9 p.m. EDT. The program is hosted by David Asman.

Davis is not the only one close to the case who says Berger’s crimes need further investigation.

“I’ll spend the rest of my life going to bed at night wondering, ‘Did he take more.’

The American people should go to bed every night wondering if he took more. We’ll never know; only Sandy Berger knows,” Inspector General of the Archives Paul Brachfeld told Asman. ...”

Norman Hsu, the ghost of US elections past

By George Koo
August 13, 2015

The resurfacing of Norman Hsu [pronounced "shoe"] reminds us that he was a well-known bundler for Hillary Clinton just two election cycles ago. Today he is ensconced in prison making $40 per month as a high school tutor for his fellow prisoners.

By giving his first interview since he was convicted and sent to prison (WSJ, 8/12/15), we are reminded that he once lived the American dream. He took money for the gullible promising handsome returns. He then gave some to the politicians. The photo-ops with politicians gave him credibility, which enabled him to take more money from more gullible people.

Instead of merely taking money from the later investors to pay off the early ones, his cutting politicians in on the take gave his Ponzi scheme an extra twist. OK, according to the Journal article, he didn’t siphon from funds he raised so much as he badgered his investors into making political contributions directly to the candidate. After all, he was making so much money for the suckers that they should be happy to donate just to stay on the good side of Hsu. ...”

So? Hillary’s son-in-law’s father is a convicted felon, too. So is Trump’s son-in-law’s father.

Oh noze - first Don King and now this guy...

The Clintons and Obamas are surrounded by current felons and someone tries to make hay of a couple Trump acquaintances.
