Remember how Obama was labelled the “cleanest squeak in a whole box of squeaks”? Not so fast!
From here:
“Leonardo DiCaprio Testifies in Money Laundering Case That Funneled $30M to Obama”.
Well, fancy that. Maybe Obama was unsure whether he would win at being POTUS and sign up to lucrative book deals.
The linked article references this tweet:
Who’d have thunk it???
Squeak, squeak.
The linked article also refers to this one in Fortune:
Leonardo DiCaprio testifies on Pras, Obama, Jho Low case | Fortune
“Prakazrel “Pras” Michel — a founding member of the iconic 1990s hip-hop group, The Fugees —- is accused of funneling money from a fugitive Malaysian financer through straw donors to Barack Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign. Five years later, prosecutors say he tried to squelch an investigation into that same financer under former President Donald Trump’s administration.”
“According to the charges, Michel essentially became a conduit for Low’s pilfered millions and his attempts to influence the U.S. government. Prosecutors allege that from June to November 2012, Low directed more than $21.6 million to be moved from foreign entities to Michel’s accounts in order to funnel money into the 2012 presidential election. They say Michel then paid about 20 straw donors and conduits so they could make the donations in their names and conceal where the money actually came from, according to the indictment.”
SQUEAK SQUEAK!!!
Probably nothing and it will all squeak over, given that the courts are all politically dominated these days.
Onwards!
