"Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets," Donald Trump Jr. said at a New York real-estate conference that year. "Say, in Dubai, and certainly with our project in SoHo, and anywhere in New York. We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia."

Donald Trump Jr. 2008

I've read it was Chabad / Israeli money

More obvious Russian corruption/ influence, but any connections to Russia are a hoax.

five-tier funfetti cake

How disappointing. Even with hundreds of thousands of dollars, you can’t think of anything better than funfetti? Money literally can’t buy taste in this case.

Grifters gonna grift

Where is dearest daddy? They already putting him into the retirement home?

Poor sucker can't afford his own wedding even?

Now, if only Don Don would just leave a laptop at a repair shop…

But the people who really wish America would be friendlier with nazis/Russians tell me that America isn't friendly enough with nazis/Russians!

Token black guy in the back. Probably thinks he's white.

At least have the class to feature the dude a little more prominently in the wedding photos.

..."according to records reviewed by ProPublica and interviews with three people familiar with the event"...

Show the records, at the very least. Provide the evidence for your audience, if you respect their intellect and ability to draw the same conclusion. Otherwise, just more nonsense posted by ProPublica with sourcing to "people familiar with the matter". Laughable. The article is pure speculation made out to be something more.

Until then, Hitchens' razor applies. What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

Man, we might as well assume that Trump is entirely made of Russian money even prior to his real estate business. I wouldn't be surprised if Fred Trump was chained by Pootin's predecessor at this point.

After all the “Biden crime family” bullshit, “Trump crime family” is right there for use by the Dems. And don’t say “it’s not original.” The right has been co-opting and enshitifying stuff from the left for generations.

If it is the offspring of a traitor, takes bribes like a traitor, it is a traitor.

I feel like these klpeorcrats types love to not only get the money and get away with it, but they really want to do it in the open too. Same with the Israelis.

My proudest moment of my wedding was also that my father didn't come.

Trump is pretty much aping Putin in every possible way, every worst way he can. Difference is that Putin is dangerous using his intelligence while trump is dangerously stupid. No surprise about the money source with trump’s long ties to Russian financiers.

Wait, you can get the Russians to pay for your wedding? Why did no one tell me!

Wow wow, many freedom, such great, not even crimes!

BTW guess who didn't come to the wedding of his son, who coincidentally bears the same name?

It's very dangerous to get involved with those kinds of people.

Really hope nothing bad ever happens to him due to that association.

most likely money laundering, and standing orders from putin through DTJr.

Less than week old news is not TIL.

Weird how democrats keep clinging to the whole Russiagate thing, but there's not a peep from them now that we know Trump is an actual Israeli asset.

I wonder what the reception entertainment was like. Eyes Wide Shut shit, I'm guessing.

Kids, the monsters aren't under your bed, or in your closet. The monsters are down the hall in the big bedroom.
