The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Dope1: There are bank records, over a hundred suspicious transactions flagged...

Perhaps you don't fully understand that the filing of suspicious activity reports against elected officials is common. In fact, during the Trump administration, Deutsche Bank's anti-money laundering division recommended filing suspicious activity reports on transactions conducted by Trump companies, including the Trump Foundation, and firms owned by his son-law Jared Kushner. Any transaction over $5,000 can trigger a suspicious activity report.

I'd wager that most of us here have had financial transactions of over $5,000.

In short, they're meaningless.

Or, at least they never bothered republicans when they were filed for Trump or Kushner family financial activities left and right.


Dope1: ...and over a dozen shell companies...

A dozen? Wow!! The Trump Organization has over 500. You better get him an adjoining cell.


Dope1: If the last name of the person doing this were named Bush or Trump you'd be ready to convene a firing squad.

Well, no: see above.
