Slick pardoned Marc Rich, the biggest tax cheat in American history.
Yeah, on the very last day of his presidency, when there was no political price to pay.
I don't think anyone knew those accounts existed until Manafort used foreign bank drafts to pay for his suits, for home renovations, and some other things.
As a tax cheat, Manafort was a complete moron.
Large foreign bank drafts paid into USA accounts that do almost no international business would have been reported INSTANTLY to the U.S. Treasury Department!
Re: Slick pardoned Marc Rich
True.
Bill Clinton waited on the Rich pardon till he turned in the keys to the WH on the way to the plane he was departing in-that is how he got to show the legal system his middle finger as he said vete a la ching**-it didn’t even hurt heifer Hillary’s political ambitions...
