So Paulie Manafort's NY laundering business is under yet more scrutiny:

and...and I'm okay with that!:

The U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York in Manhattan has opened an investigation into possible money laundering by former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort, a source with direct knowledge of the situation has confirmed to ABC News.

A spokesperson for Manafort declined to comment to ABC News on Tuesday night.

Manafort is already under investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller as part of the probe into possible collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government.

Additionally, Manafort has been under investigation for possible criminality in New York State by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman. Both the Attorney General and Southern District New York offices are cooperating with the Mueller investigation.

I just read that Kushner Co's are also being investigated out of NY. That means STATE Charges for Kushner as well & no pardons.

These are on money laundering.

Here's the twitter feed I just read:

1. BREAKING: Here it is, people!! STATE crimes for Manafort! NO Trump pardon possible WHATSOEVER. GAME ON!
(From source WSJ)

2. Investigation by US Attorney for Southern District of NY is being carried out IN COOPERATION WITH MUELLER. Probe is on MONEY LAUNDERING.

3. Meantime, Brooklyn US Attorney office is pursuing an inquiry that involves Kushner Cos. In short, everyone around Trump is toast in NY.

MORE at link.
This is how they will take down the Trump mofia.

State works with Fed Mueller, to keep Trump from pardoning until the get him too.

Since Congress wont impeach, State goes after the criminal money laundering, RICO etc.

It appears Trump Org is now cornered with Mueller & NY Schneiderman guarding both the front & back doors.

This twitter feed is really interesting.

Manafort is COOPERATING. He knows they want Trump & the entire gang & he's in a deep hole..
He's going to spill it.

This cannot happen fast enough.

He should have turned right around & rode the other one back up.
He will lose it all & No One will want the Trump name plastered on anything in the world☠.

Is asset forfeiture is a condition of money laundering or is that just IRS?
Have to ask cuz I'm don't know much about that stuff.
