Chandler--I got the link through an energy web site and it came up for me without a subscription. Here is the NYT link: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/19/business/energy-environment/exxon-mobil-russia-sanctions-waiver-oil.html?_r=0

And this mornings news was the 510 page report of corporate contributors to the Trump inauguration. Twice as much money for half as many people as the Obama inauguration--and how much is left in a White House slush fund?

I remember with irony the hypocrisy of oily knickers complaining that fund raising for the Clinton Foundation--but apparently not the Bush Foundation or the Trump inauguration--raised conflicts of interest. Lock him up?

Dow donates to Trump's inauguration--human health gets ignored. Make America safe for polluters. Dow fans like mrgybe who scoff at protection of human health must love this. Corruption incarnate. http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-dow-pesticides-trump-20170420-story.html

A Kushner family pitch for Chinese investors to help finance the planned One Journal Square towers is once again putting a spotlight on potential conflicts of interest for the first family, according to reports by the Washington Post and New York Times.

Jared Kushner's sister, Nicole Meyer, made the pitch in Beijing for $150 million in financing, saying it would mean a lot to her family, the Times reported.

Jared Kushner has divested himself from the project now that he serves as an advisor to the president.

The pitch, to 100 potential investors meeting Saturday afternoon at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, highlighted the controversial EB-5 program, which offers a path to citizenship for foreigners who invest at least a half-million dollars in American development projects, the Times said. The Washington Post report referred to it as an "investor visa.''

Trump White House clashes with federal ethics watchdog

Donald Trump is issuing secret waivers to lobbyists to work in his administration on issues they've lobbied on. Now he's trying to shut down questions, too.

And then there is the Saudi gift of $100 million to Ivanka's foundation--after her crooked daddy complained about a $25 million donation to the Clinton Foundation--and daddy ponied up billions for arms. The most corrupt POTUS ever, worse than Agnew.

There are children dead and maimed in Manchester, yet the two usual suspects plow on relentlessly with their abject nonsense. The Saudi's have not made a gift of $100 million to Ivanka Trump's foundation. They, and the UAE, have pledged that amount to the Women's Empowerment Fund, an enterprise that Ivanka Trump supports. Had it been Hillary Clinton that had obtained that funding, he would have been praising her to the rafters. Instead, he lies about it and accuses Trump of corruption. He is not only a hypocrite, he is completely unhinged. His posts are worthless.
