Many such cases.
Trump really did what he said… he drained the swamp. Somehow he did it… in the end. The rats are jumping ship.
You have to be the swamp to drain it. Who knew?
the fuck makes you think Trump caught this asshole? he was responsible for this corruption, and Biden caught it…
Well if you are going to drain a swamp the corruption is going to have to go somewhere.
no, he spread Swamp everywhere he went… Swamp is corruption… that’s all he was, all day long, every day… he gave it to everyone he could…
but morons are gonna think what they will
You’ve got it the wrong way around actually. This guy was one of the ones going after Trump, he was involved in the mess known as “Crossfire Hurricane”, the surveillance of the Trump Towers, and Carter Page.
He’s also got tangential links to Hunter Biden and was partially involved in the CEFC mess.
He was corrupt as shit before Trump got there then went after it him when he did. I mean Fuck Trump, may he rot in prison, but any idea that this was one of “his” guys isn’t based in reality.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The former head of counterintelligence for the FBI’s New York field office pleaded guilty Tuesday to one count of conspiracy in connection to a scheme working for a sanctioned Russian oligarch in 2021.
Charles McGonigal, a 22-year veteran of the FBI who retired in 2018, pleaded guilty in federal court to one count of conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) and money laundering, per a plea deal struck with prosecutors from the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York.
The disgraced former FBI ranking official was arrested at John F. Kennedy International Airport in January and charged in two separate indictments in New York and Washington, DC, for allegedly working with the sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska and concealing hundreds of thousands of dollars he received from a former employee of an Albanian intelligence agency while he was a top official at the bureau.
McGonigal’s attorney Seth DuCharme recently indicated to a federal judge in Washington that they may resolve the Albania-related case by the end of the month.
In court on Tuesday, McGonigal answered a series of questions about the illegal scheme for Deripaska and his mental competency before District Judge Jennifer Rearden accepted his guilty plea.
“I agreed with another party to collect open source derogatory information about a Russian oligarch named Vladimir Potanin who was a business competitor of Oleg Deripaska,” he said.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
