Donald Trump Is Corrupt AF https://corrupt.af/
Set up by Matt Ortega, ex-Clinton staffer.
The latest (at time of OP posting):
KUSHNER TO SELL ASSETSTO HIS BROTHER AND MOTHER
New York Times, 8 hours ago http://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/09/us/jared-kushner-assets-conflict-of-interest.html
After President-elect Donald J. Trump announced Monday that he would appoint his son-in-law, the real estate investor Jared Kushner, as a senior White House adviser, lawyers for Mr. Kushner said he would sell many of his assets to avoid myriad potential conflicts of interest.
...
But as outlined by Ms. Gorelick, (former general counsel to Rand Pauls presidential campaign, Matthew T.) Sanderson said, the plan falls short of that standard. Not only does Mr. Kushner intend to sell the assets to his brother, Joshua, a venture capitalist, and to a trust controlled by his mother, Seryl, but his mother and siblings are the beneficiaries of the trust.
It sounds like a shell game to me, Mr. Sanderson said.

An invaluable resource, though I hope he has plenty of storage space planned ...

They plan on being above the law much like W & Dick C.
We need to call them out and fight every violation. We need to find willing U.S. and State attorneys not afraid to go after them! We know the DOJ will not do it. They saw how Wall Street was not prosecuted for their massive, destructive fraud, and they plan on following the same path!
