Federal prosecutors charged a California-based money manager, who donated nearly $1 million to Pres. Trump’s inaugural committee, with foreign lobbying practices violations, tax evasion and breaking campaign finance laws, the DOJ announced Tuesday.

Federal prosecutors charged a California-based money manager, who donated nearly $1 million to President Donald Trump’s inaugural committee, with foreign lobbying practices violations, tax evasion and breaking campaign finance laws, the Justice Department announced Tuesday.

Many of the crimes described by federal prosecutors took place prior to his donation to Trump. The candidates to whom Zuberi funneled money are not named in the court records, but are said to include both federal and state campaigns. "Mr. Zuberi circumvented laws designed to insulate U.S. policy and our election process from foreign intervention," United States Attorney Nick Hanna said in a statement. “This investigation has halted his illegal conduct, will result in several felony convictions, and could send him to prison for a lengthy period of time.”

Karma is a bi*ch!

ABC, isn’t that a sham(e)? A funny post day after Dallas, showed DT leading a flock - of sheep. And everybody else took the CA Money (Launderer) Manager’s Lead.

Anyone who can afford to donate a million dollars to a political campaign should have their wealth re-distributed.

Another swamp dweller.

no way

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HARGH!!

Right. Probably go to jail. Unless it’s nonsense.

How many other pols did they give money to.

Wait..what? Another person associated with trump is accused of breaking the law and will probably have to do time? Say it ain’t so, he usually has very upstanding individuals hanging around him.

And another one bit's the dust

Where is rest of the story!! Oh ya that would be about being fare which lying fake news ABC knows nothing about!!!

AZTanya How’s that swamp draining going?

This is not news

And counting.

What else is new?

Shocking!

Sad day for our country! But, the good thing is, we don’t have dictators in our country. Trump will be gone soon and we’re gonna need bleach and clean water to clean up the White House when he’s left. We have to....

I’ve said this before I’ll say it again if everybody around you is getting arrested and thrown in jail and the one person they have a common is the one in the middle it has to say a lot for the person in the middle being a criminal

SURE HE WAS BUT NOT HOLY HILARY OR THE BIDENS! 🤪

sure a lot of big big big money crooks in Trumps inner circle?

At this point I don't care. Unless it involves Trump directly & can be PROVEN, I don't care.

Just never ending corruption...lock him up

How much longer

Further proof that Trump is a criminal and a thug. He lives on the nasty under belly of society. They Te his best friends, business partners, and supporters. He truly is a scum bag.

troubles never stop which makes Trump more transparent

Most of his crimes were allegedly committed previous to trump. I.E. during the Obama, Biden, and Clinton time frame? You call yourself news, you're just propaganda and the reason our country is F'd. Let's stop the left vs right dog and pony show.

Crooks

OMG.

...can we just LockThemUp until we find out what the hell is going on?

Trump, scams and scandals go hand in hand.

The best people.

Lining them up like firewood.

Typical GOP supporter.

All the presidents men.

Oh, the gifts, they just keep a comin'!

Why am I not surprised. No true Americans support realDonaldTrump

realDonaldTrump

Are there ANY Trump associates that aren't tied to corrupt foreign political influence?

The real question is has anybody found any Honest People connected to the Campaign/Inaugural/ or Administration? That'd be a way way smaller list, than the Crooks. Single Hand smaller...

Does he know anyone who's not a criminal?

God, your news is so biased. It's laughable. This is not a left wing or right wing issue. This guy was in deep with both parties for quite a while.

ETTD

What a surprise...so much winning...said the Department of Corrections...

Shocker

Hang em high!

Charged! not Convicted! There is a difference you Libs!

But hillary and biden can commit all the crimes they want with no consequence.

I guess the old saying is true you reap what you sow

Trumped up allegations, just to give DT a bad name

So what?

Anyone that donates to trump is a target.

Another troublesome entanglement of money donation, offend laws, evade tax, breaking laws, whatsoever, very confusing !

DOJ was aware of this guy donating to Democrats including Clinton prior to 2016 election & did nothing, only now charging him since he donated to Trump after he won. So it’s ok for illegal foreign money going to Democrats? This guy should have been prosecuted & stopped long ago!

No doubt you will find more

Say it isn’t so

At this point, I think we'd be hard-pressed to find anyone connected to his campaign that followed the law!

'Federal prosecutors'= organised crime.

dirty people surround dirty president

He only knows criminal, the best of the best

Is there anyone in his circle that isn't being charged with something? Lol

If you did crime with trump we will eventually catch and cage you. The spider webs might not have been big enough but we have bug spray now.

Nice another lair

Trump’s inaugural fund was nothing but a giant slush fund—essentially bribes in return for political favors.

One by one, down they go, where they'll stop, noone knows....

Best of luck

The TrumpShip is coming apart at the seams... Little rubber duckies needed. No TrumpTower will save you Now, Lord-Ass POTUS

And the swamp slime continues.

sheesh everyone connected to trump or around him gets arrested for tax invasions money laundering really wierd dont you think but trump does nothing wrong hahahahahaha

President Trump’s Holly Ghost drives Fed Investigators to find the foreign agent who funneled money to DEM campaigns & presidential candidates, like Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, in 2011, 2014, 2015-6. Without Trump, Fed never gets him. Thank you President Trump!

Kind of like James Tong in California.

And I'm sure the DOJ will find more criminals. Washington is a cesspool of corruption.

So corrupt!

Fed investigators never takes action until Trump, who is righteous that drives Fed to get the foreign agent who funneled illegal money to DEMs in 2011 & 2016; he funded DEMs campaigns 2014 & 2015, e.g. Hilary Clinton, Kamala Harris, & Barack Obama. Who is the 44th U.S. President?

Another Trump winner claiming their prize.

What a surprise! NOT!
